    This is my companies go to for our holiday functions. It's really good Mexican food and the fact that they easily handle 20-26 people is testament to the skill of the cooks and staff. I highly recommend this place if you want good authentic Mexican food and a cozy cantina feel. I also heard they make fantastic tamales but I haven't tried them yet. It's just what I've heard so far.

    In Old Downtown Placentia this is the best restaurant I’ve been to so far. The burrito was really good! Staff was friendly and food came out quick. Will be back soon!

    My daughter had a game against Valencia high school, which is just up the road from Tlaquepaque. I haven't been there for years. It wasn't too crowded on a Friday night. The waitstaff was thin but so welcoming. We had a good selection. Mole de la casa, Chile relleno, burritos, and fish tacos. Most everyone was happy (my son's first experience with a wet burrito). He is still deciding. The cucumber jalepeno mixed drink was excellent. A fun evening our for dinner. And the building had such character.

    Service was fantastic. The steak was tasty but the chicken was a lil dry. Chips and salsa are delicious

    Love this place a lot now. Used to only order the Mole de pollo dish, but now trying just about everything here. The mole is great, not too sweet. The combo plate in my picture is fantastic along with the red hibiscus drink. The fish tacos were really good too.

    Tampiquna was delicious! Beans and rice are yummy. Churros to finish a great meal. Service is fast and efficient.

    I just got an enchilada plate. I felt like it was way too much sauce. It was kinda spicy too which isn't bad. Rice was delicious. Beans were ok. Waiter was on top of it with everything though. I do wish they gave us more chips to go along with our food. Place was very clean! I wouldn't go back on my own but maybe if was a meeting spot.

    The most fantastic tamales I have ever eaten! No question. The building was beautiful, and felt very authentic. The views are great, and the staff was so friendly and sweet! Zero regrets eating here. I would love to go again!

    "Old" town Palcentia is so Nostalgic. Im an 80s kid so it always reminds me of the good ol days if Orang County before she got all face lifted over the last 25 years driving thru the little neighborhood a few minutes and shop areas brings great memories. Anywho the resturant itself is on a corner. Traditional entry way and restaurant interior. There were about 3 or 4 tables upon our arrival. We got seated within a minute or 2 and viewed the menu. Everything on the menu looked great, and the food was absolutely delightful! I got a wet burrito, half green half red mole and wished I would have got it the red, don't get me wrong the green was great but I Love me some good red mole. Drinks were great as well. We really enjoyed our time here. We didn't feel the typical rushnesd by the wait staff to order, eat, drink, and get out. Very different than a chain resturant. We spent about an hour and a half in total eating , chit chatting and 2 rounds of drinks. I would recommend this place to bring a date, a relative or family members or a few friends for a start on the night on the town. Food portions are great. Look forward to our next visit. P.s. the chips and Guacamole portion is the biggest I've got at any resturant and is fresh made order it as appetizer and mix woth house salsa!

    Great atmosphere and Tom shelf service. Start out with fresh and sumptuous guacamole. Try their street tacos for an incredible melange of flavors. Flan for desert is a can’t-miss. Prices are moderate and the menu is extensive.

    This business catered to the school I attended. The food was great and had a variety of options to choose from. The meats were cooked and seasoned well. The beans and rice were good as well.

    I give this place big props for service as they were incredibly busy but they handled it well. Food was great. Chile Colorado was tender and full of flavor. Carne Asada cooked to order and had an amazing flame grilled smoky flavor. House Margarita was great as well.

    Owners and staff were very warm and welcoming! I loved the food but I have to say Grupo Bella serenading the patrons was the best!!!

  • 5/5 Giovanni L. 8 months ago on Google
    Brand new to the placentia community and my wife and I we were looking for a quick place to have a drink and we stop by at Tlaquepaque to have some drinks and they had their own craft cocktails and we were impressed we would come back to try out their food and have another round of different drinks

  • 5/5 Manuel M. 5 months ago on Google
    The chicken and steak fajitas were great and perfectly seasoned. I got a horchata too which I really liked because it was served well so there wasn't sediment on the bottom. I need to go back and try other things on the menu!

    Delicious food, great service! We had the crab enchiladas and a jalapeño cucumber margarita. Nice atmosphere. A lady came by and put fresh flowers on all the tables. We will definitely come back.
