👍👍 Food was delicious! We had tacos and pozole, and split a big kids meal among our two kids. The margaritas are creative and delicious, and the kids enjoyed their horchatas. In the middle of a weekday, they were a little short on staffing, but extremely cheery and efficient. Definitely recommend.

    It was my 1st time trying this place out, and we liked it. I had the mole chicken enchiladas, and my husband had the beef enchiladas suisas. Mexicans have a saying, we can tell that you can cook when the Mexican rice is really good-AND their rice was good. I recommend this place. We noticed that the food had a bit of a kick to it-little spicy. But hey, it's Mexican food, it wouldn't be Mexican without the spice. We would DEFINITELY come back again.

    Best Mexican food I have ever had! We loved the food so much that we brought our friends back the next day. The tacos are incredible with grilled chicken pieces or thinly sliced steak. Beans appear to be store made.. Dinner service was good although on the slow side. However, we were in no hurry and when our food did arrive, it was delicious and freshly made.

    Took mom there for Mother's Day. Not gonna lie: the place is cute & trendy, but other than that, it lacks all across the board when it comes to the food. We did not expect the food to be authentic by any means, but we also didn't expect it to be just "ok" considering all the great reviews it has... We ordered Chicken Mole. The mole is OK but you can tell the chicken is cooked separately & not with the sauce. It was disappointing at best... Maybe we just need to order something else next time. Although, I doubt I will be back, tbh. They do have beautiful presentation on their dishes and they are very picture-worthy; however, the flavor was not outstanding by any stretch of the imagination. They were short-staffed, so it's understandable that they didn't have a grasp on things... I wish we had gone elsewhere where the food was actually the center of attention and not just a pretty spot to eat at.

    The food was so so fresh and tasty- tons of vegetarian options. They had great happy hour specials and the staff were super chill and attentive. From the fresh herbs in the drinks, down to the beautiful plates our food was served on- it's as good as it looks!

    Delicious food and great live music on Friday nights. I had the coconut shrimp and the margaritas flight. The shrimp were moist, the breading was crunchy and the sauce was smokey with a nice kick. My husband had the shredded beef enchiladas. Not only did it look beautiful, it tasted amazing. We will definitely be coming back.

    Delicious food and great music on Friday night. I had the sirenita shrimp, which is coconut covered shrimp with a wonderful spicy dipping sauce. The shrimp were moist and the breading crunchy. My husband had the shredded beef enchiladas with mole sauce. Not only was the plate beautiful it was delicious with that subtly sweet earthy sauce. My only area of improvement would be service. We rarely saw our waitress or we had to flag her down. All in all it was a great first time visit and we will be back.

    The atmosphere is very inviting, it's a Mediterranean Mexican restaurant that's new to DHS, I'm going to guesstimate about 5 years in the city. On Fridays and Saturdays they have a live band that plays Hispanic music and American old school '70s music. The drinks are delicious, they have these 3 ft, tall acrylic, tower like tubular funnels that house a drink of your choice that you can share amongst your friends or if you're daring enough drink one yourself. The variety of food is amazing and they also serve breakfast. There's plenty of parking and plenty of seating inside with a bar. I only gave service four stars because they were so busy on a "Friday Night" that everything was rush rush. When it came to serving our food giving us quickly and I mean almost tossed on our table. We had to ask for condiments, small plates for our appetizers, napkins, silverware ...Etc🤨 and like I said maybe because it was a Friday night and the place was packed. I don't know if they take reservations they definitely take walk-ins. but on any other given day the service is amazing.

    This place is FIRE!!! 🔥It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but the inside is really cool and the food is fantastic 👌 We got the birria tacos and mole chilaquiles. The mole was delicious and the texture of the chips was amazing. Never had chips like that before! Fantastic dish. The birria tacos are incredible. They come with a bowl of consume on the side and you think to yourself, this is absolutely unnecessary, the tacos themselves are so moist and flavorful. Then you decide, what the heck, I’ll dip it anyway, and yeah, it’s fire. Dip the tacos. They know what’s up. Such a great place!!

    I've been here a few times and love the quesa-birria platter which consists of 3 quesa-birrias accompanied by a delicious goat broth. You add the chopped onion, cilantro and squeeze a lemon to taste and you have a delicious meal. On this occasion we also ordered carne asada fries which was good for a party of 4 as an appetizer.

    2nd time here and I recommend 1000/10 Good is great! All waitresses and waiters are very welcoming and attentive to our needs! Wish we could come more often but we live so far. We can only come on our way back from Havasu city. First time we came we met 2 brothers who I think are the owners and they were amazing🤩. Today we came in and although they were not here I was not disappointed. The atmosphere was the same ! Although we did come to see them ago. The drinks they made that day were bomb 💣

    Food was very tasty and very well presented. We had a wet burrito that was very feeling and savory. The other two plates were huarache de nopal (catus) and mole enchiladas. Both very tasty! Definitely a must stop and enjoy some of the best food out in the desert.

    Happy to have tried Delicia's. Passed by on the way into town on my visit and was thinking it looked really cute! Love the decor that has a nice pop and the food seemed good. Alot of peiple showed up on a Friday night seemed like it was hoppin. Got the Azul drink which was strong! The other cocktails seemed awesome and very unique something I wouldn't have expected! I got the aguachiles negrosand wished I headed my waiters warning haha damn it was spicy! Really good flavor but I underestimated it haha. It seemed a little short handed, but everyone was very nice got to enjoy some live music too to top it off

    Best Mexican in the desert! Been trying to find a great Mexican restaurant around Palm Springs for years and finally found it. Everything incredible

    If your looking for a place that serves you small portions with LA, San Diego prices. This place is for you. If you want a more affordable authentic restaurant, that is not going to over charge you, go up the street from this place. Service took so long, the only thing my party ate was chips and salsa. The drink I ordered they did not have, instead of telling me if I would like to change fore.something different. They decided on their own to just bring me a coke. We did not even get a chance to order any food. The food I've seen from other customers was FUNNY. BABY portion with a Giant price. But the chips and salsa was good. .

    Beyond impress! There are 3 pages of fancy cocktails Great food and impeccable service! I ordered something that was too spicy for me, and they re-made it even though kitchen was almost closed I felt taken care of and valued ☺️

    Love this restaurant! We will come back. The atmosphere is great and the service is good. I think they were either very busy or understaffed because the service was a little slow. They did run out of chicken for one of our dishes and not sure the substitute was ideal for it. It seemed as though they cooked one of our dishes slightly too long, but it was still edible and tasted good. The drink We ordered tasted very good, and we loved their drink menu, many unique options.

    So yummy! Great modern Mexican with traditional taste. Food: various street food dishes from grand-ma recipes. For vegan - less options: guacamole with mango was top. Served in a beautiful and tasty flour tortilla bowl. As vegan at first I was puzzled what to order but Cesar (one if the brother owners) is vegetarian and was kind to offer a huge plate of delicious sautéed veggies 🥦 (picture). This dish usually not on the menu but as it was rather slow, they could accommodate my diet. I could not stop eating it and took the rest home. Service: At the start he had a rather beginner server and then Cesar took a great care of us. He is usually at the bar but was kind to run for and back to check on us. He was honest and shared that rice and beans are cooked with a chicken broth and offered a great alternative. Interior & Ambiance: Modern Mexican concept shows up not just in their food but as well in their well made design: bright surfaces of colours at the entrance that are perfect for the earthy - pastel landscape. Great touch on details like flags and well designed neon lamp. (trash can at the entrance could be removed else where though…) Local talented painter Cecilia made this huge intricate colourful mural on the wall makes this place so easy to find from the far :) Spanish rock / pop music created a great atmosphere for the spacious dining room and the place was quite cool, I mean chilly as well 😝. I went outside to heat up and found the mural :) Great convo with Cesar, I asked him why they don’t add more vegan / vegetarian dishes. He shared that they would like to keep traditional concept but they’re happy to modify their dishes to accommodate other diets. Hope this place will grow and develop other brunches. What a nice experience. Often just one person brings whole dining experience to another level! Great job Cesar ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
