There were 5 dirty tables and 5 wait staff sitting around laughing in the bar. Our wait staff did not wear a mask, let our food sit for at least 10 minutes before serving it to us, and the food would be rated at C- or a D. We will not be returning.

I ordered 2 platters of carne with beans and rice and 2 fish tacos to go. 45 dollars later i got less food than if i would have spent 15 bucks at frys. The avocado slices were brown and only got 1 table spoon of rice an 2 table spoons of refried beans. Garnish was like 3 days old. And chips with salsa. The chips were stale.never going back again. I get more foo from wedo canelos. Like twice a s much. I also had to oull forward and wait 23 minutes. Yep never going back.

Have been eating lunch here for years and the food and service were excellent as always. Take out orders always include free chips and salsa.

One of my favorite places to have Mexican food.

Chips were cold. Salsa tasted like straight up tomato sauce. Waters didn't even get served until food showed up. Only brought 2 waters and 2 sets of utensils for a total of 6 people.

Not the best place. They have mold and dirt on the air vents. The host kinda just left us up front and didn’t ask how many were in our party just tried to sit us at a table. When we told him there were more people he walked a way. He set a table in the back but didn’t walk us to it just said the tables back there it’s the one with the menus. It’s was good food but felt un-welcomed.

We've been going to El Molonito's various locations in Tucson for years and always had a good experience. This time however the service was severely lacking! I had to get up and go ask for drink refills twice as well as having to track down the server to get our check and then waiting over 20 minutes for it. The food this time also wasn't as good as usual. I got a taco salad w/chilli con carne and there was very little chili con carne under a mountain of lettuce. Additionally this time the restaurant was very dirty with stains on the floor and sticky tables. We'll probably give them another chance, but definitely will not be going to this location again

Great Mexican food - always have leftovers because they serve so much. Our waitress was great - didn't write down our order and still got it right, I would recommend to everyone

Waited too long for food to be served (45 min) my food was cold. When I asked if they could warm it up, she hesitated and told me she wasn't liked by the cook and was having trouble to get her orders right for the same reason

Delicious authentic Mexican food, with serving sizes that are enough to take home for a late night snack or lunch the next day

The food was insanely delicious! The only reason it's not 5-Stars is because parking is not efficient, especially if it's busy.

This restaurant is the bomb, that's why they've been in business so long I've been going to this particular location for over 30 years consistently wonderful food. Best beans in town!

Horrible customer service. As I was placing my order, the attendant was rushing me. When I ask him to explain menu item, he could not tell what it was, he said he did not have time.
