El Milagro Mexican Restaurant

The food is super good and i LOVEEE the people who work there, especially one specific person you know who you are. The restaurant is soooo pretty and everyone is so nice.

After an outing to the local Empire Mine State Park a quick yelp search brought us here. Had we known there was only one cook that night and our food would take just a bit OVER AN HOUR to be served we might have gone elsewhere. But we would have missed out on the YUMMY fresh flavors. We didn't know until we waited 35 minutes that there was only one cook at which point you think, "we've already waited this long... might as well stay". I know it's a small place so every penny counts but maybe a small consolation of regularly filling the complimentary beans/ salsa and chip basket would have helped (it got refilled only upon request) or offer another soda/ drink on the house or a complimentary dessert at the end. The decor is culturally cute and well loved and restaurant appeared clean. There seemed to be a couple of other tables celebrating special events so I'm sure that didn't help the wait time since they were kind of busy with groups. In any case, the food was good! The little guy ordered his two soft tacos with only carne asada, hubby had carne asada plate which came with grilled onion and nopale paddle, I got the carnitas plate. We got both the flour and corn tortillas which didn't seem homemade but warmed perfectly. The rice and beans pass my Mexican palate test - hooray!!! The meats were all flavorful and not over cooked. AND - OMG the green salsa that came with my carnitas--- this wonderful little cup was a surprise of heaven! I could have eaten that salsa all day everyday!!! The nopale was cooked just perfectly too. For drinks we had an Agua Mineral, a Mexican Coke and agua fresca de melón. Next time we head to the mines for a hike we'll probably drop by again... and maybe make sure there is enough help that there won't be such a long wait. No complaints and only praises in everything that we ate and drank!!

I love this quaint mexican restaurant! It is located off of South Auburn Street in Grass Valley. We shared the enchilada combo that came with 2 enchiladas ( dollar more for carne asada) with rice and beans. It was just enough to share! It is 13.45. The wine and margarita are both 9.00 each ( a bit pricey). They also give you complimentary chips and salsa and refried beans. Love the authentic salsa..so fresh! Please note if you want more chips and salsa they will charge you. They have beer and wine only and margaritas ( wine infused). The classic margarita was refreshing.They have indoor and outdoor dining. There is plenty of parking!The staff was friendly and our server Victor was professional and friendly. The order came out quickly! It was clean inside. Although it is a relatively small place they do have additional seating on the other side of the restaurant as well as plenty of covered outdoor seating. Very relaxing and low key place.I will defintely be back!

Everything was yummy! I liked how they served refried beans with the chips and salsa. The prices were cheaper than expected too. All of the servers were attentive and friendly. We sat outside on the patio which was perfect. I'll be coming back next time I'm craving Mexican food in GV!

Best Mexican restaurant in the whole area! Everything is super fresh, flavors are amazing, and the value is great. I've only taken out, but the gentleman who has helped me each time is kind and helpful. Inside does seem like a fun place to hang out. They were playing "Billy-Jean" in Spanish last time, which was fun.

Stopped by here last Friday night and I must say it was a great experience. Food - The food was very good. I got the chalupas and my fiance got the fajitas. Both dishes were very tasty and felt authentic. The chips and salsa were also very yummy. 5 stars for the food.Atmosphere - The atmosphere was pretty good too. It has ample room for guests and we did not have to wait to be seated. Chairs were comfy and it was a good vibe.Service - The service was excellent. The gentleman who served us was extremely kind and friendly and was very on top of everything. Kudos to the staff for their good service. In all, it was a great experience. We enjoyed our meals and there wasn't one bad thing to say about the meal from start to finish. I would definitely return.

We moved from Southern California to Grass Valley 30+ years ago and El Milagro is the only real authentic Mexican food restaurant in the area. If you love Mexican food you will love El Milagro. Besides the amazing flavor of the food the atmosphere is charming and the service is wonderful. Everyone is so nice and efficient. 5 stars .

5 excellent service. Excellent food, Real Mexican food. They serve bean dip with chips. Try prawn dishes.

The food in this place is amazingly delicious. This is our second visit and I would highly recommend this business to anyone in the area.I had the enchiladas el Milagro. And it was tasty, Moist, perfectly seasoned, enough sauce. The rice and beans were also delicious. I am taking a pozolo to go. Haven't tried it yet. But if this is seasoned like the rest of the dishes, I am sure I will like it.The people were friendly and the customer service was excellent. The place was clean and nice atmosphere. The only suggestion I would make is to have a sign near the street pointing to the restaurant. It was a bit hard to find. There is only a Mexican flag near the street, but it needs a sign with the name of the restaurant not the Mexican flag. If this restaurant was near where I live (dublin, CA), I would be eating here every week. I hope to come back to the area soon to try a different dish.

We have eaten here many times in the past. Tonight was horrible. I have to write my first bad review. Waited 20 minutes for our order to be taken. When food arrived it was spilled all over my husband and myself hot! Couldn't clean it up decently so we left after paying the bill, no apology from the host. Horrible service. Will not be going back.
