Restaurant El Achiote

Great staff really nice people....and now that lower the volume on the backgroung music is way better....and food it's outstanding

No Ice in my drink??? Very odd not to have ice in my drink... must be a Mexican thing... most of the food was really good for Southern California. However if this Mexican restaurant was in Philadelphia Pennsylvania the food would be twice as good. How can the Mexican food be so much better in Pennsylvania than it is so close to the Border??? Still good for California...

Overall a good option, but or some things that we definitely better than others. Below average the salsa was amazing. Guacamole was only okay with beans were outstanding. Definitely recommend the lunch menu.

I have been here a few times and I absolutely love it!! My favorite Mexican restaurant in California. Their salsa Verde is my favorite. I have brought my friends here out of state and they have begged for the salsa. I have also bought the salsa and brought it home. The cojita cheese on the beans is perfect.

Be aware it gets busy during meal times and there can be a half hour wait but it's worth it!

Very attentive and friendly, the service is fast and great! The food however has very little flavor. To me, it's very sad to eat at a "Mexican restaurant" in Pennsylvania and it be way better food and this place is right on the border of Mexico basically and to not taste good at all is kind of ridiculous. It was my first time visiting this restaurant but I will not return here. I do not recommend this place.
