Five out of five stars. The food is amazing, I had my girlfriends leftover burrito back in January and I had been wanting to come back ever since, it’s now May, and I just had my first experience with the restaurant itself, first off, I ordered my food to go and it was ready by the time I got there, but when I got there I noticed they had free sour patch kids in a bowl like it was Halloween, lol that was the best thing I had ever seen at a restaurant! And then there was a guy named Eric that worked there, he was so courteous and accommodating, his energy and customer service was amazing and above par, I feel like he made the overall experience the best, thanks Eric!

The food is authentic, savory, and fresh. One of the best Mexican food places in the Bay that has the unique taste of real Mexican food. The service is exceptional. The waitress was courteous, friendly, and helpful. A smile that leaves a lasting impression. Although the interior is a bit small, there is outside comfortable seating to enjoy the wonderful Benicia weather. Definitely a place to return to on a daily basis to enjoy a nice meal alone or with a group.

I had chicken enchiladas dinner and was impressed with the flavor of the first and last bites. Great service and the restaurant was busy, but service was great! Was with my wife and friends and we all will be back soon. ( Hope we get a table after this review )

My family and I are very pleased as well impressed with this little Benicia restaurant we’ve found. Inside it’s very quaint and authentic looking but even better was the quality of their food. Wonderfully made and delicious. Their staff was always there checking if there was anything you desired or needed. Finally we found a local quality Mexican restaurant. Thank you so much.

Honestly I did not expect much from this little place but I was taken back by the relaxed atmosphere, great service and freakin yuuummmmm fajitas! The server said the chicken fajitas the most popular item on the menu. Fajitas are never my first choice but since they were recommended I got the steak tri tip. They were so so good! My mother got a tostada salad which she said was not great and my bff got a combo plate, she inhaled it so it must have been good. I recommend this little place, order the fajitas cuz they #1!

Right before Covid the food was good but the service was horrible. They me a cold burrito and one time they didn’t give me my food. When I was about to leave the waiter asked for my tip even though he never gave me my food! But the past 3 months it got MUCH better and there service is good now.

We love to have our chicken soup. They use the best pieces of breast meat, they make it fresh to order every time. It takes a little longer but so worth it.

Definitely not Mexican Food, jalapeno poppers, nothing expectacular, guacamole lots of tomato, Chile verde, very spicy, refried black beans no flavor, for a Mexican restaurant no horchata or aguas frescas, only sodas. Food Needs better presentation.

we walked in and was greeted with big smiles. service was genuine. menu was easy to read and well put together. food was delicious i had the fish taco that included rice and beans, my wife had the combo platter, one of our daughters had tri-tip fajitas, our other daughter had shedded chicken quesadilla and our son had the cheese quesadilla kids platter. soft drinks came in very large cups that we didn’t have too ask for refills. over all we all gave casa Sandoval up! come visit! you will not want to leave.
