I had dinner here 2night on the way home from walking my dogs and, never having eaten here before, wasn't expecting anything much. I was just hungry and needed to eat. But OMG, I thought I had died and gone to heaven! I've eaten at every Mexican restaurant and cafe in town and this little place was the absolute best, BAR NONE!!! I am a vegan and can't eat wheat or any kind of gluten which never leaves me much choice and always leaves me hungry afterwards. So I ordered two tacos with potatoes, beans, tomatoes, lettuce and guacamole. The soft corn tortillas were really BIG and super tasty compared to those wimpy, tasteless little ones you get everywhere else that are too small to hold anything more than what would be considered an appetizer. They are doubled too...meaning 2 tortillas per taco so they don't break apart. And they were literally packed with all the goodies! And those potatoes! Now let me tell you, there are potatoes and there are potatoes and then there are El Molino's potatoes! They seem to be saut\u00E9ed and are in large chunks not wussy little minced things. I might also add that their salsa is pretty darn good too..nice and spicy. Oh, and the service was wonderful. Martha, the daughter of one of the owner's is an absolute sweetheart and between her and her Mom in the kitchen, they can tweak anything on the menu to suit your needs. In fact, I've been told if you call in a day or 2 early requesting something special, they might be able to round it up for you. Oh, and don't forget to ask if they happen to have any homemade chicken soup back there in the kitchen! It's not on the menu but sometimes they make it for themselves and will happily share. \n\nWell, all I can say now to sum up this little gem of a place is to tell you that I walked out of there tonight with a full tummy, completely satisfied and with a big smile on my face. Considering that most of the items on the menu I can't even eat due to my dietary restrictions, can you imagine how good it must be for those of you who can partake of the entire menu? Be still my heart!!!\n\nOh, and one other thing: what's up with those reviewers who said the staff was rude and unfriendly? If that was true this family's restaurant would never have survived the 80 years they have been in business....and 80 years is a heck of a testimony to their delicious, authentic food too!"^^ . .
