The Scene – If you're grumpy and need a lift, visit Ernesto's. The booths are comfortable, the service is some of the best in Sacramento, and the warm chips, delivered as soon as you sit down, are muy bien. The interior is Acapulco meets art deco, and loud salsa music reverberates off the walls in this family-friendly climate. – – The Food – The usual authentic Mexican fare--carnitas, burritos, fajitas, tacos--done with a healthy, refreshing flair. If you're into spicy food, check out the tender, hot pork chile verde, a house specialty that's sauteed with green…

BEST MEXICAN FOOD

by robert9408 at Citysearch

I have never been more wonderfully surprised than the evening my family and I went to Ernestos! From the very start we were greeted by two beautiful women with great smiles. Although the wait was about 20 minutes it worth waiting every minute. The environment was rich, exciting, warm and so friendly. From appitizers to dessert the bill was more than reasonable and ensured we would visit again in the very near future. I wish we could remember the waiters name but he was tall, handsome, a great smile and very attentive to us and my family. Go to Ernestos and experience a great night in "Mexico"! Provecho!

  • Pros: Everything. Treat yourself and your family to a fabulous evening
  • Cons: Parking but really no big deal

average food and loud

by __ammorton at Citysearch

I?ve eaten here several times. The food was alright, the signature drink was ok but what I remember most is the noise. It?s always loud in this place. I?ve only eaten inside so maybe its better on the balcony but even on days when the restaurant was nearly empty the atmosphere was crowded with noise. It?s not a good place if you expect to have dinner conversations with out a lot of ?what did you say?s. Other than that the food was average, Mexican city tacos were pretty good and they offer an interesting bean dip to compliment the salsa and chips. Over all though, I?d have to say it?s only average
