Came in on a Saturday night....quite packed...only got margaritas because unfortunately the wait was quite long and we were on a timed schedule...we let the waitress know we had to go and asked for the bill. Mauricio, the owner then came out and apologized and gave us our drinks on the house. I wished we could go back and try the food, but we have to leave town. Would come back if we're e er hear again. Thank you Mauricio for the hospitality.

Not too sure how this is considered "Mexican food", this is the most horriblest Mexican food I have had. Burrito is super bland, and half the size of a typical super burrito serving; but cost almost double than what it would in a Taqueria. The burrito was so dry. I almost had to buy a case of water to swallow it down. You're better off going to Subway or something else in this same neighborhood .

Options are limited in Ione so this may be the only Mexican Restaurant around. It is not very authentic but I assume that's the preference of its normal clientele. My family has been twice, but the last visit was a pretty bad experience so I'm not sure we'll be back. We came after visiting Preston Castle during Halloween time so it seemed to be their busy season. We arrived around 8pm just after the dinner rush had died down. Unfortunately, the service was horrible and really left us dissatisfied. Food is edible, but not good. The place is small so we had to wait a bit for a table to clear. When it did, the server did a really poor job of clearing the table and there was still trash/food left when they asked us to be seated. We ended up grabbing a rag off the counter to clean it ourselves. We ordered drinks next but didn't get any for at least 10 minutes. When our server brought our silverware/napkins, she dropped one on the floor and it unraveled. She picked it up and handed it to my stepmother, in its unraveled state after the silverware had been on the floor. We had to get up and ask for a new one. That was really shocking to us and very unsanitary. Getting our food was pretty slow after that, in total it took us about 90 minutes from start to finish from the time we were seated. The food itself was ok, but not good. It's very bland. They have a ton of combos but honestly, most items blend together in taste. The portion size is pretty big, but the food is VERY Expensive as you're a captive audience in the tiny town of Ione. I wasn't very impressed with my meal either time we went to this restaurant and plan to look for a different place to try next time we are in town. Maybe if you prefer gentrified Mexican food and don't mind slow/lousy service then you may be more impressed.

Don Luis's food has gotten much better. Everyone was happy with what they ordered including the kids (grilled cheese and chicken strips w/fries). There were eight of us so it took awhile to get a table big enough (walk in, no reservation). Then it took awhile to get our drink orders taken. But it all worked out fine. The burritos we ordered were large enough for two meals. The interior is rather eclectic. Lots of football "stuff".... Helmets, trophies, pennants etc. But also some random things...... commemoration plaque for the first moon walk and other random stuff. Wait staff was very friendly and got what we needed even though they were very busy. Would definately eat here again.

Great customer service, good seating in the outside patio (dogs are welcome), huge menu with selections for everyone, pleasant ambiance. Everyone enjoyed their lunch today. I had the carnitas pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw on home baked breakfast/roll. It was a huge portion and tasted so good.

Worst thing ever is driving in the middle of nowhere & hunger strikes . Had seen this place prior to camping in Plymouth . On our way heading back , I was starving & from the pics the food looked pretty decent. They had a nice outdoor patio in the back. They brought out chips & salsa. I really like the salasa . If was very zesty and had lots of tomatoes and a bit spicy with a hint on oregano . It was pretty addicting I couldn't stop eating the chips & salsa. We got the tampiqueno. It had steak which had the best marbling with pieces of fat mmm it was cooked to perfection . It also came with 2 chicken enchiladas , beans & cheese & a side of Mexican rice . The dish was so satisfying & really satiated our cravings for some delicious Mexican food . So glad we ordered that dish ! 100% recommend & the portion was humongous . Can't believe I ended up eating the whole dish in one sitting. The service here was really great . We ordered the Jamaica and didn't end up liking it too much so they switched it with horchata . The horchata here is really good ! Definitely come by if you want some delicious Mexican food. I'll be back again .

Ione is a cute but small "pass through" town for us. We've eaten here often, but this is my first time reviewing their food. I'm normally not a fan of restaurants that serve more than one type of food, but on this night I wanted Mexican food and the Hubby wanted a burger. Don Luis fit the bill perfectly. My complaints are minimal and on a normal evening probably very quickly rectified. Hubby was disappointed in the very tiny swipe of bbq sauce in his bbq burger. He asked for a side of bbq sauce and it was brought out to us. I had ordered a beef enchilada and a chicken taco. I was served a chicken enchilada. Normally I would have just politely asked that this be fixed, but we showed up on the evening of the town fall festival and this little restaurant was slammed. So, I ate what was served. My only complaint is that the service was slow, but due to this number of people trying to eat there, it was expected. The food is usually very good, served quickly, and with great service.

Fun little stop in the middle of such a tiny town! We were looking for a place to see a football game and linger over dinner. Just the spot. We were very impressed that the collection of helmets were arraigned in the order of the games that weekend, pro and college! The food was good, not great, but the feel was welcoming and we will most likely return.

we will not be going back. my hubby ordered a steak ranchero steak was burnt. I ordered a 2 tostada chili verde dinner. the tostadas were soggy, the rice and beans were cold. hubby took his meal back and ordered the same thing I got as exchange and his were the same. this restaurant has gone down hill. for $52.20 it sucked. they charged us for the take home containers everything to include the bags......nasty just plain nasty.
