    Food is always yummy! We love the enchiladas and ground beef tacos. Can't go wrong with a margarita. The service is always amazing. Especially with kids!!

    Generous portions of everything. I love the chicken fajitas but for some reason they've stopped putting oil on the cast iron skillet they use as a hot plate. I keep getting dry pieces of meat stuck to the skillet because they are burnt. Sometimes the veggies are also burnt and stuck to the pan. I am thinking about smuggling in some olive oil to pour on the pan as soon as it is served. Excellent taste, just really dry. It's an older restaurant that would benefit from a remodel/ upgrade. Still, it's local, family owned with great parking. For a quick sit down meal this is our "go to" spot. Not fine dining.

    If you're looking for great Mexican food, I highly recommend El Molinito's. My dinner is based on the Pantano location. The food is excellent and great quality. They have hands-down the best frijoles in Tucson, if not the country. I am a margarita snob and always order top shelf or Cadillac, except for here. Their house margarita is great just as is. The service is always friendly and prompt. The restaurant has an ambiance suitable for families, but also has a bar for those coming solo or wanting to watch the game or for a quick meal. They also have an outdoor patio.

    The food is always really good, but the service can be hit or miss. I always frequent the El Molinito's on Pantano and Wrightstown because the restaurant on 22nd St. by Craycroft is an absolute disaster. Your food is cold, they take it back and they don't bring it back to you. The staff is rude. I drive out of my way to go to Pantano El Molinito. We have our staff and they always make a point to make sure they take care of us no matter how busy they are. I guess that's what happens when you go four or five times a month to the same restaurant the enchiladas and chimichangas are amazing The three taco special is absolutely packed with ground beef and lettuce, cheese! It's really a lot of food and especially for the money! Try them out, you won't be sad!
