With all the good Mexican food here in Santa Rosa Taqueria Molcajetes stands towards the top of them. I've had the El Pastor and the lingua tacos, as well as the carmone de la Diabla. Every dish has been delicious. The also have a very good salsa bar. The staff is always friendly and the place is always clean. You can eat inside or on a nice day enjoy your food on the patio.

Not only is the food, amazing and authentic, but the staff service is out of this world. needed a receipt reprinted they did not act annoyed or anything very helpful. Great staff definitely recommend stopping by and grabbing a bite if you were in Santa Rosa..

Great char on a few bites of the carne asada burrito. Nice sour cream and guacamole in the burrito. The salsa bar was decent with the green sauce the tastiest, bringing the burrito to another level. The The chips were fresh. Service was excellent and attentive. I would be eating here on a regular basis if it were closer to home.

As a self-proclaimed Molcajete connoisseur, I had to try this place. It's in the name! I've had them in many different cities/states and love testing out the differences. On a Tuesday evening: I ordered the Molcajete Mixto ($32)here. First off, the salsa bar here is fun, lots of different homemade sauces. The molcajete comes with homemade tortilla, a side of rice, beans, guac and shredded lettuce. Okay back to the molcajete. There is so much meat! I've never seen so much meat in a molcajete. 6 pieces of shrimp that's perfectly cooked (other places have dinky shrimp that's overcooked), chorizo, chicken, Carne asada, 2 big chunks of questions with nice charring, a jalepeno, etc. The sauce is also scrumptious too, which is very important. The service is friendly here! They also serve you at your table with a menu and bring you the food. Not full on attentiveness but it's good service for a taqueria. The molcajete probably serves 2-4 people, but I got it for myself. Why deprive myself of leftovers? :) I do wish they ventilated more though. If you have a jacket, leave it in the car. It's pretty smoky!

Review is for take out only. Had some delicious menudo! If you want some you guys get up early to get it but it's so worth it. We got 2 servings but it is plenty for 1 of the servings to be for 2 people. I loved the handmade tortillas. I usually don't eat tortillas but can't turn down handmade ones. They send you all the fixings so you can add to your menudo. You can put it in a bowl or eat from there. We can't wait to go back and try some other things on their menu.

My husband and I have been here multiple times and it's always a hit. I was pleased at our visit yesterday to see that they've gone back to traditional table service rather than having us order at the counter. I ordered their torta with al pastor (theirs is seriously one of the best I've ever had) and my husband had two tacos al pastor. My torta was absolutely amazing, the bread was soooo soft. I loved the grilled jalapeño strips they add. My husband's tacos were perfect as always. He was stoked that they gave him some grilled onions and a whole jalapeño. Their salsas are all really good too. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for some of the best Mexican food around!!
