Great Mexican food with good service and very nice waitresses. I tried their Steak Fajitas and it was tasty. I also had a margarita which was great. They bring complimentary chips and salsa and their hot salsa is very good. Their restrooms are clean which says it all about their management! I think they are doing a great work here! Check this place out!

El Guayacan Mexican Food is, so far, the best of the bunch, if only for their salsas and chips, that very graciously are presented almost immediately. Service very good, by not one, but several ladies each time they passed by. Very constant, and with a friendly smile. As for the food ordered:

Went for a date night with the wife on a Friday. Always heard of this restaurant, but have never been…a terrible shame on our part. Located in the Almond Orchard on Pillsbury Rd, if you drive in you’ll pass it by without knowing it’s there. Once inside, it’s a very busy establishment with a quick and attentive staff. Chips and salsa within 1 minutes of sitting down, drinks within 2 minutes. The menu is extensive and fairly cheap, but more expensive than others. I ordered the #5 special to try a bevy of items…1 Tamale, 1 Enchilada, and 1 Taco (all chicken), refried beans and rice. My wife got the Super Fajitas (beef, chicken, and shrimp), with the usual veggies…onions, peppers, and mushrooms in a thick, sweet sauce/gravy, which was different and extremely tasty, and Her sides came on a separate plate for easy building. Everything had a distinct flavor, with nothing dry or overcooked. The veggies on both plates were crisp, not soggy. The beans were perfect, with lots of cheese. One downfall…the rice was bland, and only had taste when paired with a spoon of salsa. Overall, a wonderful dinner place…definitely worth another date.

This was a great find by the fountain! We enjoyed great food and excellent service. We were there on several occassions and at various meal times, before this review, and I can say that they seem consistent with food and service quality. It is a nice open space restaurant, with indoor and outdoor sitting, their service is friendly and attentive and the food is authentic and flavorful. They have an extensive menu to suit your palate. Their portions are generous and we loved that they serve their hot and mild salsas, simultaneously, with the freshly made chips. Their salsa is chuncky and full of flavor! They have a great selection of mexican non-alcoholic drinks and a full bar for mixed drinks with a great assortment of draft and bottled beers to compliment your meal. We are so delighted with them that we added them to our regular dining rotation. Highly recommend them!

This is easily one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Chico. I remember when they first opened and I’m so glad to see they survived the pandemic. The food here is amazing, the staff is so kind and friendly. One thing I specifically like about this place is their chicken. I don’t know what they do to get it super tender and packed with flavor, but I hope they never change it. I’ve never been disappointed by a dish here and I’ll keep going back every time I’m in Chico.

Lots of choices and excellent food with large portions. Not inexpensive but not expensive for what you get. Good service and nice people. Definitely going back. And the atmosphere is kind of cool because of the murals and things in the restaurant on the walls. Gives you the feeling of Mexico.

We ordered Tres Chiles and Chicken and Steak Fajitas, I would 100% recommend the Tres Chiles. It is chile colorado, chile verde, and one chile relleno all on one plate with rice and beans. The pork and beef were so tender and so flavorful. We went around 3pm on a Sunday and the service was friendly and efficient. Food came out hot and fresh, and full of flavor. This is not a restaurant pushing out bland meals, this is delicious mexican food. Hole in the wall atmosphere with plenty of physical space, big portions, and good flavor. Can’t wait to go back and find out what other great food they cook up.
