Sal's Mexican Restaurant - Madera - Madera, California

After hearing about Sal’s from many people, I finally gave them a try!

I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered half and half fajitas and they were great. (Only came with two tortillas though)

My friend raves about and ordered the enchiladas. I gave them a try and was surprised at how delicious they were. I regret not ordering them because “I can make my own enchilada sauce at home”, but these were delicious and the next time I go I’ll be ordering them for sure!

The staff was VERY attentive. Like to the point towards the end it was a little annoying, but honestly it was great and I didn’t mind that much because they weren’t overbearing, just checking in.

The fried ice cream was very sad though. It wasn’t freshly fried and you could tell they just grabbed it out of the freezer :(.

They had good pricing for the account of food. Great selections available. I love the combination plate being able to try different foods. The quesadilla and rice was flavorful. Salsa was nice and spicy. The taco was blander. Tamale has a nice sauce. Service was quick and consistent. No long wait.

This Sal's location is good and has great service. Food has that good home cooking love. I always get the ground beef enchilada combo and add sour cream. Their chips and salsa here is delicious.

Sal’s has to be one of my favorite restaurants in Madera.
The service is always wonderful and the food always delicious. Everything here is delicious but I definitely recommend the custom burrito with the carne con chile and your choice of sides and the Enchiladas suizas.

Ordered Carl's Burrito and Completo Tostadas with carne asada. The tostada tasted okay. The meat is a bit dry and bland. The shredded meat and sauce on the burrito are flavourful and tasted really good. Fast service. The server was very attentive.

They had incredibly dirty dishes and extremely smeared cutlery. The service was horrible I had to wait 25 minutes for a refill of my water and a extra 10 for my order to be taken, it was not overly packed and it was decently empty and yet they still took a long time. Our table was dirty and the food took almost 30 minutes to get to us. The food was horrible a sad joke for Mexican food, my burrito was plain, a complete lack of seasoning, I could go from the lack of flavor in the rice to the dry clearly old meat to the store bought tortillas, this place is a mess and when I asked for salsa they served me something that tasted like water. The quesadilla was drenched in a pool of water from the ground beef they had used, this place is truly a sad excuse for a restaurant. A former image of itself and most likely never going to return to that greatness

Best fajitas I have had in a loooong time. Salsa is amazing, flavors balanced with spice. The guacamole is outstanding. It is a large portion size and could be shared. Best Mexican food I have had in Madera. Great experience the servers are excellent. Overall great experience

This was a few weeks ago...
We were a party of 6 with a dog. We called ahead of time to see if they could accommodate, and we were told sure to come on over.
The staff, one waiter in particular, went above and beyond.
We had a lovely meal and a nice family visit. Thank you, Sals! You were very welcoming, and you served delicious food.
