Ernesto's Mexican Food

I started my meal with the fresh salsa and chips. Made to order, it was fresh with just the right amount of onion and tomatoes – a perfect complement to the crispy tortilla chips. For the main course, I opted for the Midtown Combo plate, and it did not disappoint! The corn tortillas were stuffed with tender, flavorful chicken and cheese smothered in a rich tomatillo sauce that had the perfect balance of spice and tang. Finally the mimosas were perfect balance of sweet mango and champagne 🍾

We ask for one order, and we received different order. The food was so greasy. We order a beverage and we never get it. The salsa came in a plastic container, and when we as for more chips they want to charge us $1.50. My daughter don't even eat her food because was so full of grease. They serve her beans in a plastic container like a salsa container, my order came with two hard cold flour tortillas in a aluminum foil just tossed in my food.The service was very poor. They give us one napkin and one fork, this was worse than a taqueria. We report our concerns in a polite way to one of the servers, but our server was more like " ok that's your bill. Don"t worry about the tip." and disappear. That was not only insulting, we never had such poor service in any other place. Tip should be earned by the quality of the service, no by percentage of the food consumption. Thank you.

Sangria Saturdays 🍷🍷 On a walk around Midtown, we decided to stop in and savor. On arrival, you could feel the authenticity that welcomed us while we sat at the bar. We were just there to have a liquid snack, but they gave us delicious chips and salsa to wash down the sangrias. Being in walking distance, we look forward to coming back for the happy hour.

Walked into the restaurant, it was lunch time, and the dining room was half full. We were greeted nicely and were seated shortly after. It appeared they were understaffed. Our server didn't know if the corn tortillas served with chili Colorado were white corn or yellow corn, Our food came to the table looking great. My entree was hot and presented nicely. My wife loved her Ceviche tostada. To be honest, I'm not too sure how house- made, the chili Colorado was prepared.

I stopped here for tacos the other day. The pastor is delicious and prepared well. The habanero mango (?) salsa was bomb. The regular salsa with chips was nice and fresh, though not spicy. Leticia the server was extremely friendly and helpful. The tortillas need a little help, but otherwise I was happy with my quick lunch. I'll come back soon.

Of all the mexican restaurants I've tried so far, the food here is among the best. Bursting with flavor and very satisfying, I will definitely be coming back. Shoutout especially for the margaritas, they were perfect. Also I was surprised at the price, it was very cheap for the quality you got. The only negative was that they are understaffed. The people working were trying their best but there were only 3 of them and it was nearly a full restaurant.

This place freshly makes some high-quality, healthy Mexican food. It has a good flavor and isn't greasy. I also ask for their extra spices salsa. Their margaritas are pretty good, too. My wife doesn't drink tequila, so they happily make hers with vodka.

Came in for lunch but was pleasantly surprised that their breakfast ran until 2 pm on Saturday. Ordered the Huevos Rancheros, it was delicious! Service was great, friendly and helpful. My girlfriend had the Tanga Tostada off of the lunch menu… she didn’t leave enough for a church mouse…lol. Only criticism is parking… but it’s downtown Sacramento so it is what it is.
