★★★★☆ 4.0 Linda Suskie · Aug 2025

Pleasant atmosphere and good service. The food was...odd. The enchiladas were covered with lettuce (usually they're on the side), and the taco salad was, I guess you'd call it deconstructed, and full of veggies not normally found in taco salads. We both spent a good bit of time picking out what we didn't want to eat. What was left was okay but nothing special.

I got the carne asada and so did. My husband and his was perfect and mine was just a little drier still tasty. The service was outstanding though. And the portion sizes are good.

El Molcajete is hands-down our parents’ favorite Mexican restaurant in Grants Pass, and it’s easy to see why. Over the past three years, we’ve made it a tradition to dine here every time we visit Oregon, and it never disappoints. Despite the stiff competition from other excellent Mexican cuisine spots in the area, El Molcajete consistently delivers a dining experience that sets it apart. The food is always tasty. The portions are generous, as is typical of many Latin cuisine restaurants, but what stands out is the attention to detail and flavor in every dish. Most meals come with the classic rice and beans, but I personally love substituting them for a side salad and guacamole with sour cream – a fresh and delicious alternative. Our family favorites include the fish tacos, pork and beef t

This place is pretty awesome. From the sweet ladies who work here, the salsa and bean dip are amazing, and a cool atmosphere. The shrimp burrito, they did great with the amount and quality of shrimp, avocado was perfect. A few recommendations on it… I’d cut the shrimp up and sauté in a blackened or creole seasoning. Add a better other mix inside with seasonings. And fry the burrito to crisp the tortilla before covering with sauce. It was good but could be better with that one dish. I love this place and will be back 🙌🏽

Ok, so my wife and I stop here every time we are in Grants Pass Oregon, and I have to say, this is by far the best Mexican restaurant we have ever been lucky enough to come across. The service is awesome, the staff is super friendly, and attentive, the food is absolutely the best! Portions are ridiculous... This time I had the enchaladas verde...the plate must have been 16 inches across.. and filled to the brim! I would highly recommend El Molcajete to anyone and everyone. When you're here take notice..everyone here is having a great time.
