Flores Cafe

I found their instagram page and the food looked amazing, so we decided to try them out for lunch. They're located in a small strip mall; the kind of place people might drive on by, but definitely stop in for some good food! We went New Year's Day, making sure we paid attention to their special hours. Walking in, it looks like a club, not a restaurant. I can only imagine how lit this place is at night and on weekends. The walls are painted black with neon murals painted all over. It was fairly empty and they had bachata loudly playing on one tv and a game on another. It's definitely screams a club atmosphere, but with a restaurant inside. Yeni greeted us and came over and took our order. I ordered a small carnitas taco, since carnitas are my favorite. The meat was tender and flavorful. Exactly what I expected it to be. We also ordered the combination fajitas and the 3 mole enchiladas plate. Everything was so delicious! The rice and beans really caught our attention. It's not always that I enjoy the rice and beans, but theirs was really good! Everything was seasoned well and piping hot when it came out. Their chips and salsa were also good! We bought some to take home, along with a to-go order of shrimp ceviche. We will for sure be back to try more on their menu! Very glad we tried them out!

Came for lunch. Been a year since I was last here and obviously it's undergone alot of changes. Has more of a black light party vibe now versus the old school styled Cafe.Lots of modern / Hispanic pop culture art on the walls everywhere. Service was great servers were attentive and quick to take order and check back in to see if you needed anything.Ordered the tamal, taco, enchilada combo plate.Food was good/ filling and covered the entire platter. Would recommend a visit.Not sure about the night scene but looks like they have music and bar for weekends.

I ordered the #17 SHRIMP enchiladas combo plate to go. Although the flavors were good the portions were ridiculously small for the price. They used salad size shrimps and chopped it up to tiny pieces mixed it with vegetables for the enchiladas. I could not taste any shrimp only vegetables. The sides rice and beans portion did not even fill half of the container slots and the chips they gave us 6 chips SMH. I understand the food is expensive but if you are going to charge full portion prices you need to give FULL portion food and for this reason this was my first and last time patronizing this business.

I never thought this pace existed we stopped in on a Sunday afternoon And there menu looked good, I wanted everything ever written on the menu I got camarones a la diabla and a molcajete and let me tell you neither plate disappointed I will definitely be going back , maybe this time on a Saturday

The best !! Loved the bands playing the food isn't that great tho it's more of a drinking spot and enjoy the music type of vibe

While running errands, I started to get hungry and had a craving for asada fries. Yum! I decided to stop by Flores Cafe, a small Mexican restaurant in Carson with plenty of free parking, a definite plus for me. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly greeted and placed a to-go order for asada fries.They didn't take long to prepare, and they came out fresh and hot. The fries were good, though I've had better. I couldn't help but wonder if they would've tasted even better if I'd eaten them right away at the restaurant. Maybe!

Darn, I was hungry that I ate my food first instead of taking a pic of it! lol I ordered the shrimp in red sauce. It came with a side of rice and beans. It was delicious! Spanish rice was delectable & fresh. Refried beans were perfectly soft and topped with melted Mexican cheese. The cooked shrimp was in the red sauce. The red sauce was seasoned perfectly! Not too much and not too little which flavored the cooked shrimp well. We ordered it to go so our plate came with corn tortilla and chips with salsa.This was my first time to this cafe so upon entrance your eyes are distracted by the art that covers that restaurant- and lit by black light (see pictures). The art covers every wall and ceiling. Music was nice and poppen, not too loud. I was so distracted by the art that it took me a minute to review the menu that was given to us upon entrance.We went on Monday evening and it wasn't that busy so we were greeted upon entrance, given a menu and ordered. Wait time for our order wasn't long at all and once I did place the order, the server gave us water while we waited. The only thing about this place is there isn't any windows but there is plenty of ceiling fans in the dining room. Note, the server who greeted us and took our order did speak English. He spoke both English and Spanish. I promise next time I go back I'll take a pic of the food. Lol I'm giving this place a 5 star rating because the food was amazing. I think the dining tables and chair could be a wee bit more comfortable but for this place that almost looks like a hole in the wall, it was a pleasant surprise.

I stopped by and looked at the restaurant and bought pozole. I loved it. It was totally recommended. The flavor was exquisite. The service was excellent.

We got there at the restaurant this past Friday about 6:30 just before the end of happy hour. Although we don't drink alcohol and there was only one happy hour item to eat which was street tacos we passed happy hour. It was very loud when we went in one side when you first come into the right appears to be more of the party-goers that are drinking from happy hour and getting ready for karaoke at 7:00 p.m. . We sat on the other side where it seemed like there was more of people gathering for their little parties and get togethers for dinner and getting ready for the DJ that starts at 9:00 p.m. . So there's two loud things that are going to happen all at once. So we decided that we would just stay for dinner and leave not in a hurry though. There is a lot of seating available in this establishment for little parties and maybe something a little bigger if you reserve it and the tables and space to have your get together. The food on the menu is a assortment and most items are under $20. We chose the number six which was two enchiladas and taco with rice and beans. We chose credit before the tacos and for the enchiladas not much meat in the enchiladas and the tacos but they were so beautifully prepared and presented on the plate that I would not have complained about it although I am doing a review I'm just throwing that in. The platters are beautiful presented in a nice white rectangular plate that made the food look very appealing. The sauce on the enchiladas was tasty I could see that it was homemade and not out of a can and not overpowered in any kind of one particular flavor which I prefer I don't like too much of a one particular seasoning on my sauce so this passed for me as a plus. They sprinkled onions and plenty of cheese on the top of the enchiladas which I like because that's how my mom used to prepare them. The taco was very nicely presented and held up with some shredded lettuce so it didn't just lay flat on the plate and fall all over. The rice was average the same you would get almost anywhere else the beans were good although a little thick and pasty just because I prefer mine a little thinner and texture but they were okay. We ordered a small side of guacamole for the chips and salsa, the guacamole I didn't care for because it had onions tomato and lime and maybe it might have been some finely shredded lettuce also and it just wasn't to my expectations but it was just okay I didn't care for too much onion in it or too much tomato it takes the creaminess of the avocado away, I did not like the tortilla chips they are not the corn variety that I would have expected these are more of a thin brittle type of tortilla chip that seems to maybe have flour mixed in with the corn? Not sure but didn't really care for them. Our waitress was very friendly and checked up on us from time to time and we were served in a matter of a few minutes not a very long wait more people were starting to come in and order and I noticed their orders were coming out in a decent amount of time also. And their food look very good as well presented. The overall appearance of this restaurant is above what I would have expected, there's glow in the dark paint black lights but the fun eclectic appearance is wonderfully presented, and can accommodate a young to even an older person's taste for something different.

Food was good, not much more to say....I would recommend it, the environment was very inviting, the black light environment and walls were good. The wait staff were very polite.The food was exceptional, I would recommend it, had a carne asada burrito and chicken wings
