Wow! Had a great experience here. They served wonderful food with a superb atmosphere. Their service was outstanding with very friendly Spanish waiters (not necessarily from Spain). We had a wonderful waiter named Nate who recommended some excellent food and gave us super hot hot sauce tasters. He described the hotness perfectly as “mild when you swallow it but every time you swallow something else, it gets hotter.” So, I recommend you ask for him, and that you sit outside since it is beautiful. Food arrived after about 5-8 minutes and was really tasty and well worth the short wait. I would definitely go again next time I am in town. In sum, great place and I highly recommend it.
There is both indoor and outdoor seating, it is far enough away from busy street that the street noise is minimal. The drinks are good, didn’t get refills on lemonade but the margaritas were a hit. The chicken enchiladas and carne asada were great as was the fried ice cream.
There are so many reasons Estrellita has been in business since 1958. As long term residence of the area, we are very familiar with the varieties and quality of Mexican restaurants. most of them seem to just phone it in, but not Estrellita. We have not been to this restaurant for three years (Covid) and feared for the worst when we returned. we need not have worried for the place is as fresh and bright and the food is as unique and as high-quality as ever. For example, the Cochinita Pibil a Mayan dish from Yucatán, turned out to be flavor, full and savory! I had a Chile Riano made out of a fresh poblano chili and wonderful cheese with delicious sliced tomatoe on top. You won’t find a speck of grease on anything, not even the home cooked, fresh tortilla chips. Tgey have other wonderful regional dishes that you will want to try and they always feature specials, including at least something from a region such as Oaxaca. If you want extraordinary Mexican food, this is your place.
Must try🍹 Jalapeño Margarita Tamarind Margarita Vegetarian options were okayish🌱 Amazing service!!
Totally loved the outdoor ambience and food. We are vegetarians and the options and quality was excellent We ordered avocado with chips which was well severed and good for 4 Ordered taco salad bowl , which I would highly recommend and order again whenever I go back again. Ordered the enchiladas plate which was good too. Enjoy the pictures
It's one of my favorite Mexican restaurants! They have a delicious selection of food and cocktails. The decor is lovely and bright. Very friendly staff.
Definition of a 4-star spot - not going to blow your socks off but reliable for a tasty meal. The enchiladas hit the spot, and La Gringa is great too. Don't sleep in the beans either. The rice is meh but it's ok for one piece of the meal to be a safe spot to return to between more flavorful bites. The delivery was packaged very well.
Very nice cozy decor inside the restaurant. Very colorful. Service was really good. We ordered mango guac, veggie quesadilla and stuffed chilli. All the food were simple and tasty. Will visit again!
