Mariposa Castillos Mexican Restaurant - (Near Mariposa, CA)

Bunny This Chilis saved my marriage - I went out to dinner with my siblings that were visiting from out of town to witness me get married the next morning, well I FORGOT MY WALLET at the table and didnt realize it was missing until the next morning when we were already on our way to the courthouse ~ this was at like 9:30am and Chilis doesnt open until 11am, by some miracle the opening manager picked up the phone and met us at the door with my wallet just in time for us to get married!! All in all amazing food, service, and care. Thank you Chilis, Im married now because of you!

Joshua Salzwedel Service from Savannah was perfect and we even spoke to the manager Nick for a few, so friendly. I had the lox benedict it was amazing. I highly recommend this spot!

Bishoy Tawfik I heard a lot about Papa K’s, but I wasn’t expecting that he truly brought the taste of Egypt to OC. As an Egyptian and a seafood lover, this is one of the best seafood dishes I have ever had. Please keep up the great work and the amazing food quality!

Jeremy Cowin We’re visiting family in Red Bluff and spending time at all of our favorite spots, so it probably feels like I’m leaving a lot of five-star reviews—but this one is well deserved. Carlitos is hands-down our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. We especially loved the Christmas decorations this time around. The food is excellent, but honestly, the service might be even better. Drinks were never empty, refills showed up before we had to ask, and the staff was incredibly attentive the entire meal. One moment that really stood out: our grandchild finished coloring on his kids menu, and out of nowhere one of the staff members showed up with a fresh coloring sheet and new crayons. No request, no delay—just thoughtful, friendly service. The staff here is always welcoming, observant, and genuinely kind, and that consistency keeps us coming back. The only downside is the parking lot—it’s a bit rough—but that’s not their fault and absolutely shouldn’t stop anyone from eating here. If you’re looking for the best Mexican restaurant in town, Carlitos is it.

ar bee Bone Kettle: A Flavor-Packed Gem in Pasadena From the moment we stepped into Bone Kettle, we knew we were in for something special. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance, sleek, modern, and warm with attentive staff who make you feel like a regular even on your first visit. But let’s talk about the food. The star of the show? Their legendary broth slow-simmered for 36 hours, rich, silky, and layered with flavor. Every spoonful feels like a masterclass in depth and technique. Every dish is beautifully plated and thoughtfully prepared, showcasing Southeast Asian flavors with a refined twist. The appetizers are equally impressive, and the craft cocktails hold their own alongside the bold cuisine. Prices are fair for the quality, and portions are satisfying without overwhelming. You can tell the team here takes real pride in their work. Bone Kettle isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience. Highly recommend for date nights, foodies, or anyone who wants to taste something extraordinary in the heart of Pasadena.

Jason Johnson This place was great! The ordering process was fast and efficient, the staff was attentive and cheerful, and the food was amazing! We had shrimp and grits, pork chops with Mac n cheese and collard greens, and the Brussels sprouts. They also made me a killer Arnold Palmer with unsweetened iced tea and lemonade. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! I would recommend a meal here if youre hungry while visiting the Oakland museum.
