I recently had the pleasure of dining at Farolito, and I was not disappointed. The restaurant was bustling with activity, but the staff was attentive and efficient, ensuring that we were well-taken care of throughout our meal.
I started my meal with the Diabalito, a mango margarita that is served blended with a mini premium tequila bottle and garnished with a Tajin powdered rim. It was the perfect way to start my meal, refreshing and flavorful.
For my main course, I ordered the carnitas burrito, which was served wet. The carnitas were tender and flavorful, and the burrito was generously filled with all the fixings. It was one of the best burritos I've ever had.
The portions at Farolito are generous, so I had plenty of leftovers to take home. I was also impressed with the prices, which are very reasonable for the quality of the food.
Overall, I had a great experience at Farolito of Fullerton. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was fun and inviting. I highly recommend checking out this Fullerton staple if you're looking for a great...

After consulting with the server, I got the big caddy margarita. They said it was not very sweet. I taste more simple syrup than anything. I can drink tequila straight. This tastes like nothing but sugar. Sent it back. They tried gaslighting me into thinking all margaritas were this sweet. I unfortunately know how to mix one from my restaurant day and ordered it at several bars/restaurants. They kindly remade with the sweet...
Read moreHorrendous Customer Service Enough to ruin anyone’s appetite, do not bring your family, business colleagues, dates, or friends here unless you want to be disappointed. Tonight’s manager was a complete disgrace to herself, to any business owner, and a terrible representation to any business. It seems like the owners hire anyone off the streets. We complained with Manager about not getting the right order and getting over charged, “Yes” we were upset, and eventually got irate! Manager did a poor job diffusing the situation & correcting the problem and instead of apologizing she was rude and unprofessional. I am not sure what’s worse the greasy food, the inconvenient parking and long walk to the restaurant, or the horrible customer service. I hear there is a “Manager Skills” class coming up at Fullerton College you may want to send your staff there before you hire. “Go...
