Reviews for El Farolito Mexican Restaurant in Fullerton, CA

I don't think we will ever order from this restaurant again. Our food was cold. Tortillas were under cooked. Very little... chicken on the tacos and no salsa was provided. The worst part was when I called the store, Gio who answered never offered anapology nor offered to fix the order. Definitely not recommending this restaurant. Read more

My husband and I were really looking forward to enjoying our dinner tonight. Usually we drive to Farolito in Placencia, we have... a couple of Margaritas and always a great meal. This wasn't the case tonight. We wait a long while for any one to come to ourtable, all she ask was for our order. Never did she offer us a cocktail or did she ever come back to our table. Someone elsebrought out our food, when done we asked for our check. NEVER to return again. So ???? disappoint. Read more

Best I can say is that the food was OK for the price, but you get better quality at just about any fast food style taco shop for... about the same or a little less. Service was decent. Don't think I'll be back. Read more

I started going to the original El Farolito in Placentia starting over 30 years ago. This new location is great! The food tastes... the same, with shorter wait times, and great service. Love going here for a nice weekend lunch. Read more

Tried both their Asada and their Pastor taco Tuesday deals (24oz draft and 3 tacos)Sorry I ate one before I took a picture- I... was hungry. And they were both good. Although they offer fewer types of tacos than Matador , the patron attention is better. Irecommend their taco Tuesday. UPDATE: The people that attend continue to be friendlier. This go round I struck up a conversationabout the Carnitas served here and some other establiments and some of their better offerings. Read more

Went out with colleagues to a local Mexican food joint. Good service and excellent food. I opted for the shrimp dinner which... was not bad at all. Also enjoyed their chips and salsa! Read more

PURE GEM! This is my favorite spot. Even though it’s the “Jr” location - I prefer this location. The green sauce here is... my favorite in the whole world. It’s always very clean in here. Staff is always friendly, quick and helpful. I have beencooking here for years. You guys carry my favorite asada around. Divorce style is freaking amazing - 1/2 red 1/2 green. & the eldiablito mango frozen margarita is my favorite drink. You’re asada, green and red sauce and el diablito margarita cannot bebeat! I love you guys!!!!! Read more
