We visited Los Comales for supper this past Friday, 6/13/25. It wasn't too busy yet; there were 2 other groups dining in The two servers there were super friendly and pleasant and seated us right away. Our server brought us chips and salsa and menus and was back promptly for our drink orders. I had a fountain coke which was really good. Some places don't have their machines adjusted correctly and it's usually watered down so this was a very pleasant surprise.
Our server took our orders and our food was out pretty quick. I had 4 tacos and a side of frijoles. I had tacos de langua, barbacoa, carnitas, and birria. All were delicious and well made with two corn tortillas filled with meat and topped with cilantro and onions. The langua was tender and flavorful. The barbacoa was also very tender and had a pleasant, rich flavor. The carnitas had that delicious, tangy pork flavor and texture. My favorite was the birria. It was well seasoned and absolutely delicious. My side of frijoles was also very good. They came on a medium sized deep plate and we're topped with either Oaxaca or Chihuahua cheese. They were also very good; I could eat a whole bowl full with chips and be happy.
My wife got the smothered carnitas burrito with 1/2 green 1/2 red sauce. It large and very delicious. It came with a side of rice that was also good.
Up front there is a salsa station with multiple salsas, marinated grilled jalapenos and onions, and pickled red onions. The pickled red onions were delicious. They were nice and tangy with a good spice blend. I had a jalapeno with my beans and it was also good. For salsa we had two favorites of the 4 we had. We both liked the salsa guacamole and i really like the salsa Mexicana. (There were others...for next time.)
Overall the food we had was all very good. (No food photos; there are already plenty out there.) The restaurant seems to do a brisk takeout business along with the dine in option. The two servers that there provided great customer service and they really kept the restaurant area clean. The building is on the older side and the decor is simple but the food was delicious and that's what's important. We would go back and we...
Read moreI do not usually post reviews however I felt the need with this establishment because it is NOT a restaurant, this place is a SCAM. First of all, their menu is a lie, they will try to claim that you can add on fries for only a $1.50 with your meal but then when they charge you they will charge $5 per side of fries. Practically every item on the menu has a false price that they were charge you significantly more for. Next of all, the place is utterly disgusting. At first glance their restaurant appears mediocrely decorated but upon further inspection this place is riddled with mold and grime, most especially in the kitchen. Last of all, the service is lackluster at best. I never had a refill on my single glass of water I ordered, the food was poorly prepared and placed onto my plate (my Torta wasn’t even a sandwich it was just a disgusting mess of a plate), the waiter is deceptive and trying to overcharge you with the sides, and worst of all the bathroom was filthy. This is not a respectable establishment, in fact I would rather call this place a fake restaurant, as an immigrant to this country from Russia I expected more from my immigrant brothers from Mexico to provide excellent service in a time where most establishments like Olive Garden will overcharge you for low quality meals. This place is no better, in fact I would have rather gone...
Read moreI gave this place five stars after our first visit. But after returning today, I am lowering that score to two stars. My wife and I raved about this place arter our first visit, thinking it would be our go to place for authentic Mexican food. But the infuriating service we received today makes it unlikely we will ever return.
We waited ten minutes to be seated despite the fact that we were standing right next to an empty table that needed to be cleaned. When the woman finally cleaned it, she gestered at it without a word and walked away. She didn't come back for another ten minutes. When she finally came back to take our order, she never introduced herself or asked how we wanted the food prepared--which is why my order came out wrong. But there was no way to tell her because she didn't return For nearly fifteen minutes to ask how things were. She never refilled our drinks. She walked by our table nearly ten times after we were done and just needed a box and a check--and she didn't even look at us. My pregnant wife had to actually to up to her and ask for a box and a check. Quite literally the worst service I have ever received.
This place needs to hire better servers and staff up much more during busy times. They just lost us as regulars. There are other authentic Mexican restaurants in town that won't make you feel like you are...
