Sarita Bar & Grill

My wife and I love going to Saritas Mexican Grill & Cantina in Hammond, especially during lunch hours as they have an all-you-can-eat buffet.My wife and I stopped in for dinner and as always, we were greeted immediately and seated right away. We got there just in time because the mad rush came in a few minutes behind us and the place was hopping.Ordered a couple margaritas and a bowl of white queso to go with the complimentary chips and salsa. Let me tell you that their salsa is spot on, very flavorful with just enough spice and not be overwhelmed with cilantro like most Mexican restaurants where the soux chef stumps his toe and spill the whole jar of cilantro in the salsa.We place our order and enjoy our drinks and pre-meal snacks and catch up on our day. My wife ordered the grilled chicken topped with sauteed spinach, grilled veggies and mashed potatoes. She was in heaven and said it tasted out of the world. Chickens was juicy and flavorful and cooked to perfection. Not too tuff or rubbery, the veggies were soft but crisp and flavorful. While the picture doesn't do the enchiladas any justice, they were pretty darn good. The chili con carne had a little kick to it but gave it that extra oomph. Our server was there enough to make sure you were doing ok but not so much as to be annoying. You know how you go out to eat and every time you take a bite and just as your mouth is full of tlfood, the server is there asking you if you need anything or you just got your food and while your are adding some salt and pepper or prepping your plate the server walks around the corner and comes back 2 seconds later to ask how everything taste, yet you just unwrapped your silverware. Not here, great service.

So we decided a trip to Hammond would be fun. Someplace new to eat is always fun! We settled on Sarita's and we are glad we did! I had Mexican tacos and Julie had regular tacos. The steak tacos were amazing! Their guacamole is really good and the salsa is very mild. I liked the rice and beans too! The place is clean the staff is attentive but not intrusive. They have outdoor seating available if you like that. We enjoyed of meal quite a bit!!

The queso is the true star of this place and adding ground beef made me want to slap my momma The chips they provide us so light and crunchy, it goes great with the salsa and queso. We could've just at the chips alone they were good. The puff taco was an interesting take and it was almost to cute to eat. The seafood enchiladas was almost like a etouffe inside of it. Definitely is our place whenever we are in Hammond.

My favorite Mexican restaurant!I love the Mexican Pizza and they have the best tortilla chips. Light and crispy.

Went here during a mini storm to get out the rain and enjoy a marg. The parking is large and they have a cute patio outside that I would have loved to sit on in better weather! The service was nice and margs were delicious! The queso dip was decent and so was the salsa. I got the tortilla soup for lunch and it was quite pricey at the end! The smallest marg is 8 bucks, which is a lot of a small, but worth it in my opinion!

The restaurant was not very busy on Sunday evening. Server was somewhat hesitant and slow to wait on us. Food was just OK there're way better places to eat Mexican food in Hammond. Ordered the flan and it was very gritty and mellie not creamy at all.

Listen up guys...anyone longing for authentic recipes of breakfast foods...Sarita's in Hammond will begin this amazing journey to your morning belly! Owner/Chef will have many items for breakfast on Saturdays & Sundays beginning the Sun after Super Bowl. Come enjoy an experience just like their lunch/dinner menu...Delicious!

Need to bring the old servers back from 2019!!!.That's when the environment was the best! And we felt much more welcomed! ( food is great tho!)

My wife and I used to love this place, but they have dramatically increased their prices. We ate there today, 12-9-23 and each had a chicken fajita skillet. Neither of us got any sides and we did not want tortillas, sour cream, guacamole or cheese, just chicken, onions and peppers. The bill was $34, not including tip. We will now look for a New Mexican restaurant to frequent.

Try the Enchiladas de Puerco. They are awesome and have a nice flavor. So many bland Mexican places in town and this is not one of them! I worked at Gracias of Scottsdale in Arizona and after watching Cucos sadly disappear from the area, this is my go to Mexican joint for good food. Also try the top shelf margarita. A+
