OUR STORY:
Founded in 1986 the Solano family opened Guadalajara Mexican Restaurant in Lake Elsinore, California. Eleven years later in 1997, we opened our second location Guadalajara Mexican Grill and Cantina in Temecula, California. At Guadalajara’s, we take real pride in providing the freshest ingredients to ensure high-quality Mexican food. We pride ourselves in having generous portions, a festive environment, and the best margaritas in town!

    Overall, quite nice! My "team" enjoyed the excellent food & good service. An idea for your consideration: because "older" people have the moneyto spend as well as the time and a cadre of friends, a "seniors" discount OR other offering might help boost attendance...

    We have been eating at Guadalajara Grill for 35 years. It rarely disappoints. Service is always excellent, the margaritas are the best in town. Just be sure to make a reservation if you’re going to go on Friday or Saturday night. It’s a great place to have fun with friends or just a dinner for two. Our always go-to Mexican in the Temecula Valley.

    Fire the bar tender - drinks are horrible - not our first res - always lousy. Just horrible - no flavor - margs are just awful. Tossed together with no reasoning. Menu is nice - great selection - service is attentive. Unless you make a res - you are going to wait. Period. Fact is - they move you in and move you out - this is a place to eat - not a place to dine. If you understand that going in - this is your place...sans drink...until they get a new bar tender who knows how to mix drinks - that goes for the marg flights as well - zero flavor other than bottled fruit flavors. Order the iced tea and save your expectations.
