"First-rate food and atmosphere in a stylishly airy interior. Order at the counter and after a short wait the friendly staff is delivering a tasty dish to your table (unless you're doing takeout). Definitely worth navigating the temporarily obstructed main drag."

"The nachos might be the best I've ever had! The chicken was flavorful and not dry at all. We had 2 tacos that blew my mind. If you're here in Guerneville, it's a must stop. As a sidebar, the staff were super friendly and made it an awesome experience"

"Fantastic and friendly staff.. food was delicious, but also enjoyed the salsa bar that they have. Salsa Fresca is my favorite. Seeing Adrain and staff put a smile on my face."

"Discovered this place totally by accident, and I'm so glad I did! The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. A good salsa bar is always a good sign, and the tortillas seemed fresh and were perfect. We had the Camarones al aljillo and the barbacoa plates, and both were excellent. I highly recommend giving it a try! I will definitely be back."

"The food is great, the people are great, but we just had a chili Riano w/ beans and rice and a combo meal with a soda and iced tea and it was $63 not counting tip. I think this restaurant will be out of our price range most of the time. Hopefully the tourist coming to town well do them good."

"Chilaquiles are the best I’ve ever had, and that’s saying something because me and chilaquiles go way back. Everyone working is also super great. One drawback is that this place is rather expensive but that’s the price you gotta pay for good food in guerneville. I’m sure as heck gonna make a point of eating here every time I’m in town"
