This Mexican food is the best I have ever had. I love how they come together and make the place feel like home. This place has the best been and cheese burrito (wet). The staff is so friendly.

food and service was ok however i did have one issue with this restaurant after checking my bank account i noticed something was off so i called the restaurant they sent me a picture of the receipt i had signed and i noticed they tipped themselves $10 more and changed the total amount on the receipt not cool! so make sure you check what your paying is correct but i definitely won't be coming back here

Good food , service is good too.. but they don't play any music? No Mexican music, nothing? And when you ask they say the system is down.. music sets the atmosphere and vibe But I guess nobody at that restaurant cares.

This is an old home style Mexican food restaurant. Old style seating in old town Placentia area. Hadn't been in Orange County in a while! Wanted some real Mexican food and it was still good! Had enough for breakfast the next morning with my tortilla from the refrigerator.

Celebrating Cinco de Mayo today with my wife. Our first time at El Farolito. The food was great! Service was great! We had enchiladas and carnitas, was so good!! The owner of the restaurant frequently checked on us and really made our experience special. My brother and my sisters family frequent the establishment, now I know why. The flan was Superb!! Real flan... Look forward to visiting again soon. Very, very reasonable and huge portions. Thank you!!

Been coming to this place for yeaaars. It's authentic and delicious Mexican food. I recommend the enchiladas. Service is always good. I don't think I've heard had a rude waiter. Expect a short wait because this place is small but quite popular.

This place is SOOOO good! Amazing service, amazing food, and great pricing!!! Can't wait to go back! They are so generous with their portions, even the guacamole was generous!!! Pictured: 2 micheladas (one without Clamato), huevos rancheros, chicken enchiladas verdes, guacamole Mexicano
The food the service excellent every single time we go it's amazing. The ambiance is authentic Mexican. They have great lunch specials Monday through Friday but their prices are good anyway. The food is absolutely delicious

Always deelish! Never had a bad meal here! Sometimes the salsa isn't as spicy as I'd like it but that's my only complaint.

The ambiance inside is great. Nicely decorated. Lots of tables but earning, there is construction on the street outside, so parking is worse than normal. The service is always great and quick. Very attentive with refills on drinks and making sure we had all we wanted and needed. As well as asking us how everything tasted. We both ordered the lunch combo and it was more than enough. Keep in mind, no changes to this place. It's a red enchilada and taco. Yummy!

This place is perfect for some good comfort Mexican food. Whether you come for breakfast, lunch or dinner there are great options to choose from. I enjoy their enchiladas, shrimp fajitas, menudo, and chilaquiles. Service is quick here and staff are always friendly. Horchata is refreshing to have with meals and the bf enjoys their micheladas. Good place to bring groups to, but parking can sometimes be a little hard to find.
