About this business

Dona Esther's Mexican Restaurant can only be described as a labor of love. Our place embodies the feeling of a family kitchen -- full of laughter, friendly faces, and delicious food. We've become a place for travelers and locals alike to relax and revive over a plate of our famous chicharron, enchiladas, or chile relleno (just to name a few). Pair it with a margarita, sit back, and let our family get to know yours.

We met up with my cousin and her husband last Sunday and had a wonderful brunch! Ophelia was are server and she took such great care of us. She even brought me a slice of fabulous flan cake with a candle for my birthday! I had the huevos con chorizo, and it was without a doubt, the best I've ever had. Thanks Dona Esther's! We'll be back!

More like visiting family than a restaurant! I love this place! Try the wings and my favorite the cheese enchiladas!

Always a delicious meal and great servers. I love the patio. Ofelia is the BEST and I could have stayed all day. We went Saturday, 9/24/16. Thank you Ofelia!

The waiter we had on Sunday was horrible, he didn't come back to our table to take our order. There was only three other family in the patio. He had a family that were waiting for the bill, and two other family's that came after us. He took the others orders that came after us and one of the tables he stayed talking and laughing as the customer was faking a strong Hispanic accent. We left without even ordering and will not be retuning ever. We had been customer for over 10 years. We enjoyed our day thanks to Jardines Mexican... read more

The food was excellent especially the beans and the carnitas. The soup was good. The salad was bland. Service was a little slow but the food was worth the wait time. This is a restaurant to go back too.
