La Kebrada — Restaurant in Fresno

They first need to add additional $$ more like $$$ to alert customers of prices. This was my second time for dining. I took family of 7 women for a birthday cocktail after we had brunch nearby. We were serviced by a head waitress who recommended sitting at two tables instead of the bar. We ordered our cocktails. After having two rounds of margaritas we noticed we had never received chips and salsa. We asked why everyone else had chips and salsa and were told you only get them after you place an order. She went on to say they were having to throw away chips to often so only if you order food. I thought that was bad service. Never have I been to a Mexican restaurant and not been served chips and salsa. They should have asked if we would be ordering or only drinks she should have asked if for a fee would we like chips and salsa. We all felt treated differently. We ended up ordering two nacho plates now did we get chips and salsa then? No we did not oh wait I paid for them in my nachos which one order arrived really late and cold when it did it seemed it sat on counter while she ran around to other tables never coming and checking if we wanted another order from the bar or refills on water. Instead she came and asked us would we like our check now! Not the standard is there anything else you would like. Very rude for business. When the bill came it was 303.25!! For two nacho plates very scarce made for one person there was 7 of us. 4 blended margaritas and seven on the rocks in small glasses and 1 beer. That was a total disappointment. The Bathroom soap dispensers were not working and on the counter was a dirty container of foam hand soap that went in the machine but you had to grab it with two hands and squeeze out the foam soap, unsanitary. Aside from the high prices and the dismissive waitress my party was sad to know this business didn’t care to share the same welcome to its own Hispanic heritage so they lost many opportunities to host us ever again. For $300 you can have a feast at Castillos in Clovis Toledos in Fresno El Patio in Tower District or for real authentic La Playita on Kings Canyon...

Salsa and Chips - good. Not too spicy and doesn't have a can flavor. I did not have a problem with it but do not expect home made flavor.

La Kebrada Appetizer - good - the tray was good but no sauces for the chicken wings nor any for the taquitos made it bland. The quesadillas did not felt fresh- you can tell by the cold hard cheese. I would buy it again with side sauces.

Mole de Pollo - Good . It would be better if they use chicken legs and thighs. Chicken breast is not a good idea (because they feel dry) unless you are on a diet. Mole is not spicy so do not expect much excitement.

Enchilada was salty, but okay. The enchilada flavor is not a big deal. Feels as if it was made with fresh tomatoes sauce but not really something I would say it is authentic mexican sauce.

The pork Tamal was dried and the did NOT taste FRESH at all. Felt bland as well and they use the enchilada sauce on it. I would not buy it again.

The side sauces green and red were nasty for me. They had a taste like when your sauce in a can is about to expired -- you can tell they are NOT fresh as well.

OVERALL -- Go try it but do not belive the hype that it tastes like if you are in Mexico. It is white...

Horrible service by sever. Could not get 2 words out to ask for something before she was already walking away to the back kitchen. We literally had to tell her to wait because we had more to order. I ordered a beer first thing when I arrived. Never received that. My buddies order was completely different from what he ordered. And I had ordered a chile verde wet burrito and they decided to add some cardboard in my burrito. Yes ,actual pieces of cardboard in my food. Maybe I just had a bad experience or just a bad day on their part. I tried to be positive about it but when I told our server her response to it all was “oh...” and walked away taking the pieces of cardboard. Nothing else was said and walked away and later brought the check and that was it. I’d hope this place is better than this because a buddy recommended this to us but they failed to provide good service to me and the group we were with. I most likely won’t ever go to this place again. The rude server is one thing everyone has a bad day. but card board pieces in my burrito how sanitized is this...
