Local Mexican restaurant with self-service salsa bar and great wet burritos.

They eventually gave me new rice when I walked up to the front and explain the situation. To me that was an insult. They must know perfectly well that dried rice was too dry to serve to anyone. They had guts to serve that kind of rice to us. Worst experience in years from...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of lunching at MIKASA restaurant in Walnut, and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was inviting and the staff were incredibly attentive and friendly.
The menu offers a fantastic variety of dishes, each prepared with fresh ingredients and beautifully presented. We particularly enjoyed the menudo con pata, taquitos, ceviche de mariscos, burritos which was some of the best I've ever had. The flavors were exquisite, and the portions were generous.
