Great Service, Great Mexican Food, Tons of Seating – If you're looking for a casual dining experience with excellent food, this is the place. The food was some of the best Mexican food I've had in quite a while. We went on a Friday Night and didn't have to wait to be seated due in large part to their large dining area. The service was great, the restaurant was clean, and the meal was resonably priced. (about $8-$15 a plate) The only thing I would advise is piecing together your meal as opposed to ordering the prearranged, "n... read more

Great food and great service – We've been frequenting Ol' Mexico for years, and the hot salsa and margaritas are wonderful! Service has always been great. Management is kind of full of themselves, but the food is always hot, drinks are always cold, and we always go back. I've lived in the Southwest for most of my life, and Ol' Mexico's food challenges many of the Mexican restaurants down there. Love it! Recommend it!

Worst example of Mexican food – I used to live in the Roseville area for many years and always enjoyed the food at Ol Mexico immensly. We moved out of the area a few years ago but this weekend we were back visiting friends and decided to go to Ol Mexico for dinner. What a disappointment! I ordered a numero uno which is a taco and a cheese enchilada and my husband orded a taco salad. Neither dish had much flavor. Not only had the price increased dramatically, but the quality of the food was terrible. It tasted like bar b que ... read more

horrible food – The drinks at Ol Mexico were very good, but that is where it ends. This place was quite possibly the worst meal I have ever eaten. 1st-the guacamole had a brown tint, which indicates that it was sitting out. We attempted to get past the brown tint to find out that it was an avocado cream, there were no spices in it at all. The salsa tasted like it was really watered down store bought salsa--awful. I had the fajitas, which included the brown tinted guacamole. The only saving point with the fajitas was the incl... read more

Poor treatment from management – I grew up in the Roseville area and have visited this restaurant for over 20 years. The prices have increased dramatically over time, but I always returned for the convenient location and halfway decent food. However, on my last visit my party ordered drinks, but did not order dinner yet as we were waiting for another guest. The waitress did not bring out chips and salsa per the "new policy"; we had to order food first. We could not order our meals until all the guests arrived. We complained ... read more

Best Happy Hour anywhere! – Cheap large beers, lots of free food. Service is good. Great place for afterwork, with a few co-workers or friends.

Virgin margaritas, whether you want one or not – I stopped in on a hot Saturday afternoon to have a margarita. After ordering a tall regular blended margarita, I sat back to enjoy. Having only 15-20 minutes to spare, the tall probably wasn't the smartest choice. But being the trooper I am, I managed to quaff it all down. The taste was great, but after drinking that large of a drink that quickly you would think that you'd be on your way to Margaritaville fast, I wasn't. I asked the bartender if he forgot to add the tequila, t... read more

Booted Out – I would agree that Ol' Mexico has a wonderful ambiance, but guest service is low on their priority. Children are unwelcome both to the buffet and to make a mess at the table. The so-called owner of the place and his family are disrespectful to all of their customers. If you tip the waitresses not enough- which by the way Mr. Owner is not required by law- they will complain to the owner whom is related to them. You will be asked to leave for not tipping enough. The MHD should visit this hole each day until he is ... read more

Nice decor, bad food – I think that the salsa and the queso dip were both purchased at a grocery store. The food was way below par. The ambience and drinks were both good but that is all I can recommend it for.
