Reviews of Taqueria El Molcajete
"Some friends treated us here, and the first thing that stood out was the fresh Pico De Gallo and variety of salsas that are complimentary upon being seated. Each salsa was very delicious and fresh!!! The service was very good, the owner and staff were very attentive and welcoming! It was a place where you could relax and enjoy a meal with family and friends. We love our beans and rice, and theirs were prepared and seasoned well. We ordered the steak burrito, steak tostadas, and chorizo nachos. The chorizo was sooo good, they didn't miss at all on the chorizo. However, the steak was not good. Not only was it not a good cut of steak, it was very chewy, and even worse was that it had a weird taste, like as if it had freezed burn or something. We couldn't fully put our finger on what the taste resembled. It just didn't taste good. Everything else looked pleasing to the eyes and was delicious! It was our first time there, and hopefully, that was just not a good batch of steak meat. We'd give it another try, and I'll update when we do."
"Tampiquena is always my go to with an extra cheese enchilada. Tortillas de harina, and I love the fact that they give you sour cream with out asking. Best place in belvidere for Mexican food. 10/10"
"This was our first time eating at Taqueria el Molcajete. We ordered a caldo de res (beef stew) and a cóctel de camarones (shrimp cocktail). The caldo de res WAS SPOT ON! Just how your Mexican mom, grandma, or tía makes it! You could trll & taste this was homemade by how rich and hearty it was with corn, potatoes, chayote, carrots, cabbage and big chunks of meat with the bone still in. It was so flavourful! I ordered the cóctel de camarones, it had plenty of shrimp and avocado. I added pico de gallo to mine, extra ketchup and salsa Valentina. It came served with a basket of individually wrapped saline crackers and limón. If you are used to a cóctel Nayarit style (with cucumbers, ground pepper or octopus in it) you will not get that. For me, exactly how it was served and adding the pico de gallo was all that I needed. 10/10 We're not locals to Belvidere, and we decided on this Taqueria based on the reviews. Being mexican, we can make this food at home but opted to give it a try, and I'm glad we did! We learned that the restaurant has been open for 30+ years, not an easy feat in today's market. ALL OF THE STAFF were super, and I mean SUPER attentive, making sure our agua de Jamaica was always refilled. The interactions did not feel forced, rather these are owners and employees who you can tell take pride in their work and are very happy to welcome anyone who walks thru their doors. 100/100 on service. We thanked the owners and staff for such great service. The restaurant had a ton of Hispanic people as well as American, and they were all greeted with the same friendly and warm enthusiasm as we were. Upon sitting down at the table, we were given fresh totopos, pico de gallo, and three salsas with various degrees of spiciness---they're not kidding when they tell you to be careful, ¡Sí pican! Upon first glance, Taqueria el Molcajete may appear to be a hole in the wall restaurant, well, let me tell you, you'd be making a mistake by driving past it and not trying it out! We will definitely be going back again!"
"Oh my gosh!!! So very good. I had garlic shrimp, beans and rice - plus a side of lettuce and tomato, tortillas, chips and three salsas. It was enough for two meals and VERY yummy. The service was great -- fast and attentive. This is a very sweet place and it was packed at 5 pm. A good sign! In the area for work; so happy to have found this restaurant!"
"The Barbacoa was absolutely delicious! Authentic flavors, we tried the Chicharron, steak, Chorizo. They all pass the test with 10/10. We also had Al Pastor and I'll give it 8/10. Their chips and salsas are unique and very, very good, they even give you individual servings of sour cream with the chips! Overall this is the place to eat authentic and delicious Mexican food. You can tell it is a good place when it's packed with Hispanics customers. The service is outstanding, they keep checking on you and making sure you have everything you need. We will come back here for sure, if we are in the area again. 100% recommended"
