Went with a retiree group of ladies. Only one person knew about our reservation group and it wasn't the front desk. Made me sit in lobby for 20 minutes while they got ready for group. Took forever for someone to take drink orders and 30 minutes for them to put chips and salsa on table. Took too long to take... More

Sorry but the food was just average, the servings were small, and the prices were higher than expected. More

We've been coming here for the past 18+ years and have loved it. We come here often with family and friends, and have tried just about everything on the menu. The food and service have always been great. Whether it was a lunch for two - or a birthday dinner for a huge crowd, we have never been disappointed. The... More

This has become one of our favorite mexican food restaurants over the last 6 months. The service is always spot on and the food is wonderful. Let me start by saying, I have always been a chimichanga guy. I really never have ventured further than that. This restaurant has change me. I will first say that their chimichangas are surpurb,...

This large and welcoming restaurant has an attractive interior...mission style...with attentive servers and reliable food. Most every meal is good with a few exceptions. The nachos come as a flat,gooey mess...but as very large quantity. The margaritas are great, but do not ask for anything complex. My dry martini arrived with melted ice and a huge lime, yes lime, peel... More

We frequent this grill for our Mexican fix. The service is great, food is amazing!! You have to get the carnitas tacos. The Margaritas are amazing too. We are pleased each time we go with the wait staff and the food quality stays consistent. More

I have been here several times. I don't order my favorite Mexican dishes here, I order the tri-tip fajitas. This place makes some things well, like the rice and beans and fajitas. I did not like the chicken enchiladas or the chicken tacos. The food tends to be on the bland side. The place is generally busy and the service... More

They rushed us out within 30 min of sitting down. They wouldn't let us order dessert or coffee when we finished our meal. They said we had to leave. The staff was laughing at us. I will never go back. More

We were in the area for a wedding, had never visited Concord before, some of the other guests told us to try Guadalajara Grill (some had been there THREE times in four days!!) and we LOVED it. The seafood salad with shrimp was so wonderful I am trying to duplicate it at home. Great service, nice friendly staff and very... More
