My husband and were in Coalinga on a business trip, and after reading good reviews about a local hot spot called Los Reyes, we decided to go there for dinner. I usually try not to make a permanant decision about a restaurant on the first visit, but Los Reyes was so bad that my first visit will be my last! Want details? Read on.... The exterior is very cute and colorful, with a cozy little covered patio for al fresco dining that is hidden from the street by a wall of tall, thick shrubbery. However, the parking isnt quite sufficient for the capacity of the dining room. The interior decor is simple, but nice. They have quite a few photographs of historic Coalinga mounted on the walls that I found quite interesting. The restaurant has some of the the cleanest, healthiest, most lush houseplants Ive ever seen in a restaurant! The dining room has more of a "diner" feel, than an actual restaurant feel. Its remeniscent of a casual, old-school pizza parlor, with an uneven cement floor, booths and small tables. The service was very good and the staff friendly and polite. The bathroom was clean and adequately supplied. Now, on to the food.... The waitress brought out the customary chips and salsa, and took our drink order. The salsa (if you can call it that) looked and tasted like watered down chili sauce with a few sliced green onions thrown in for texture. The chips were slightly stale and unsalted. Our drinks (water) were delivered promptly, and was very cold and refreshing. The water tasted filtered and was very good (Im a water snob...lol)! I ordered the "Fajitas Mixtas" (1/2 beef, 1/2 chicken). My husband ordered a ground beef taco and chicken enchilada combo, but recieved a chicken taco and ground beef enchilada...a minor mistake, but his order was wrong, nonetheless. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time, and was nice and hot. My husbands food looked unappealing and bland. I commented that the enchilada sauce looked like watered down canned sauce. He said it tasted like it, too. I sampled a little...it was almost completely tastless! He commented that his entire meal was tasteless and bland. My fajitas were virtually tasteless. I didnt even get a hint of garlic or lime, or even a whisper of the wonderful deliciousness that weve all come to know and love about fajita seasoning! The chicken and thin slices of beef were cooked nicely, not overdone and dry, but still very bland! The onion and green bell pepper were colorless and limp. No carmelizing or charring at all. The rice looked and tasted like the kitchen staff added a little canned tomato sauce for color. The refried beans were the only thing that had any flavor at all, but were garnished with some kind of flavorless, melted white cheese. On a positive note, the flour tortillas are home made, and made to order. Unfortunately, I dont think the cooks at Los Reyes have discovered garlic, pepper, or even salt! One of the reviews I read said that the food at Los Reyes was Americanized Mexican food, but was still very good. Dont trust the reviews! Ive had better...WAY better food in hospitals! Our meal was a waste of $25.00+. A good price for dinner for two, but hardly a bargain, considering the quality of the food. I will not return to Los Reyes, and I definitely will not recommend it to anyone!

I was going down the "5 freeway and all I seen was bad food with high prices I seen this place 10 minutes away from the freeway but It was really affordable and worth it so we decide to go with a large group and we all enjoy our meal it was pretty good it tasted homemade and had different choices a little bit of everything for everybody free refills

Great food. The crowd is not too big but they are very busy. We had no waiting and all employees were great. Friendly and very quick to get food. The waitress checked if we needed anything else and were good to give refills. Really enjoyed it here.

Wanted something different so we thought we would give this place a try and we are so glad we did. The food is excellent and so is the service. Everything is made fresh per order. If you have a taste for authentic mexican food this is your place!

Service is always great. The salsa is to die for. I see a review on her that was a novel that was only 1 star. I cannot even fathom how their taste buds work. Do not hesitate to come to this establishment.

They have great service. Its a great place but what is a good mexican restaurant without "mole". Mexico is known for its mexican food mole is a big part of it.

Excellent authentic Mexican food in the middle of nowhere. Even the sea food was amazing for the restaurant being so far from the ocean.
