We stopped off for Mexican breakfast. We both have been craving it. I ordered the chili Verde omelette. It comes with rice and beans and homemade corn tortillas. Absolutely delicious. My wife ordered chorizo con huevos, it comes with rice and beans and she also ordered the homemade corn tortillas. If you’ve never had homemade corn tortillas you need to stop by, they are just absolutely delicious. We both loved our breakfast. It was just wonderful. Service was spectacular. The owner was there and taken care of everyone’s needs. We certainly will be coming back here very soon thank you.

The food was fantastic!!! It was so good, I couldn’t wait to take a picture until I was halfway through! Very great prices and service was top notch. The Diablo sauce was sooooo delicious!! It’s not as spicy and has plenty of flavor. Definitely try the shrimp cocktail and also the Michelada!! You will not be disappointed. It is also great to see A family owned restaurant and actually see the owner taking our order! Wow!!!!

My wife and I had an absolutely delightful experience at El Pueblito Restaurant in Santa Maria. Their Carne Asada plate was a true standout, with the tortillas freshly made and bursting with flavor. The authenticity of the Mexican cuisine here is truly remarkable. If you're in Santa Maria and in the mood for some of the best Mexican food around, El Pueblito Restaurant is a must-visit. We'll be back for more

A must try if you’re in the area. I ordered their Carne a La Diabla and did not regret it! The meat was very tender and cooked to perfection. The rice and beans were also very tasty! Lastly, I can’t forget about their signature chips and salsa, absolutely love it!

Got here during prime time 5pm. They were able to seat a table of 8 just as I walked in so fast service. Waitresses provided excellent customer service and the owners even came out to introduce themselves. Very nice local Mexican restaurant. I ordered horchata, guacamole for appetizers and the fried red snapper for entree. The guacamole came out handmade and delicious. Their Diabla sauce is to die for. The fried red snapper was the bomb. Everything was great especially during the pandemic.

El Pueblito Restaurant never disappoints. The camarones à la diabla burrito is incredible and full of flavor. Carnitas on Thursdays and Birria on Fridays make this the perfect spot to start the weekend right. Highly recommend! The service is fantastic also.

The food was very good. The service was great. The building was kinda rundown and could use some love. The TV with the game we were watching was broken. But you want to go there for the food anyway.

It's a good restaurant, food was nice. Waitress was friendly but took a little long to come back and check in on us. I would go here again and give it another shot.
