I live around the corner, driven by this place for years. So on a quest to try and support more of my local eateries, I’ve neglected giving this, among others a shot. I finally decided to try it a couple weeks ago and what excellent food this place has!

I can’t remember ever having a bad meal here. Food is fresh, portions great, prices fair and although I had a mahi mahi rice bowl on my last visit, the carnitas here are my favorite.

Their food is fantastic! My faves are the Blue Moon salad with chicken, the beef and chicken flautas, the cheese enchiladas and of course the sweet corn cakes! Fast, friendly service, very clean and fresh food! You won’t feel guilty treating yourself to this home style Mexican food!

The food is epic and the staff is great! Best healthy Mexican food around! They also have great takeout, party packs and offer excellent catering. In addition, they are fantastic local business that supports school events, other charities and events as well. If you are looking for a quick bite, dinner for the family or hosting a large event Caliente Southwest Grill is the place to go!
