Alvarez Restaurant

Really good food. We had the shrimp tacos and the enchilada/Chile rellano combination. Prices were very reasonable. We'll be back, often.

Amazing food. Service was good too. Had the 3 meat fajitas. Amazing. Came out sizzling on a skillet.

Super burrito is so much food I will continue to come here for a long time. I highly recommend the moley sauce.

The food is always great. My dad was visiting from out of state and he hasn't had any good Mexican food in a few years. He almost cried when he took his first bite. The service is good most of the time I had one bad experience but she may have just had an off night. The atmosphere is cozy and very festive.

Stopped by before making my way back to Santa Rosa, and the staff was super friendly. The food was excellent, and very well priced. Just over ten bucks for a super burrito, and I am not kidding when I say it was almost the size of my forearm....

Love this restaurant! The food is amazing every time. Whether dining in or take away it's always on point. The service is fast and friendly. Highly recommend!

They probably have the best carne asada burrito in Lake County. It used to be self-made billiards, but this place is better. Service is very slow, so expect to wait a little bit for your food.

Delicious! Absolutely favorite Mexican restaurant on this side of the lake. Their fish tacos are my favorite and the salsa is so fresh. The only reason I give 4 stars is because we've only been a handful of times and haven't gotten the chance to test other meals or have had the pleasure of dining in. (:

Usually have loved there food but tryed a shredded beef tostada today to go. Well I was pretty disappointed it was a pile a mush, to much liquid in meat for tostada's not sure what went wrong today. Love there taquitos. Next time I'll try the carna sada tostada.

Second time here, and the last. First time, my father and I stopped in for lunch. We stood around for a while before we were half heartedly greeted by a waitress with dead eyes. She looked like she wanted to be anywhere but there. After we ordered, the waitress returned & told me they didn't have the ingedients for my order. I chose another dish. Lunch came. It was passable but lack luster. We left unsure if we wanted to return. Tonight life conspired to prevent cooking at home. We called in an order for myself and my elderly parents. 5 minutes later I recieved a call back from the restaurant. They do not have the ingredients for the dish I ordered. This is not the dish that they didn't have ingredients for the last time. I punt & order shrimp fajitas with corn tortillas. My father & I go to Hardesters and buy some hardware. We then drive over to the retaurant and wait 10 minutes before going in. Old dead eyes avoids greeting me for several minutes. Food is not ready. 5 minutes later I am presented with two very full bags of food. At home, I served the food to my folks. My fajitas are not there. Neither are the chips & guacamole that my folks wanted. I return to the restaurant. Dead eyes seems to sense that something is afoot and asks if I need something. I tell her that I need my shrimp fajitas & side of guacamole & chips. "Just a minute" she says, and disappears into the kitchen. She reappears and has someone else's dinner in her hand. She delivers it to a table. Another waitress appears with a to go bag seemingly stuffed. She presents it to me and delivers the most perfunctory apology while turning around and looking around the restaurant. (3 occupied tables) Once home, I open my food. There is a nice side of guacamole. I give that to the old folks. My fajitas & my rice & beans look ok. No tortillas. No chips. Nice. I decide to just eat it without tortillas. The shrimp are luke warm yet tough & rubbery. The rice was too salty to eat. I will not waste one more thin dime on these people. I am looking forward to the next restaurant that opens here when they fail.

Placed an order to go. Picked up my order and it was the wrong order. I was asked to bring the food back, thinking my original order was there. When I arrived, they said they had to make the order all over again. Waited for the food, got home and all the food was cold. I asked to talk to the owner and apparently he’s only there on Saturdays. I will not be going back.

Says open at 11 am and came to have lunch and it’s not open! Drove more than 25 minutes for the restaurant to not be open! What a waste of my time.

Ordered food and Virgin Margarita I was very specific Virgin...with my 24+ month old son drove from Pope Valley also being sober for year and half still severed me alcohol magarita...I literally finished half of it before I realized it was not virgin. My sobriety was ruined and I had to wait like an hour before I went home and it was already almost dusk. The worst experience I've ever had at any restaurant. I could if given my son a drink of this "virgin" drink thank God I didn't. As a server you literally have to hover a bartender with virgin drinks it's very easy for them to serve it traditionally.
