I've been enjoying taco Tuesday for some time, I thought I would try Marandos on a Thursday evening and was very disappointed with the service and food. Service was terrible, I think my server was on Valium. At 6:00 pm the server was only tending to 3 tables including mine and the other tables were finished. On this occasion the food was not that good.
Ordered tongue tacos, steak tacos and the quessabirria tacos.The tongue tacos were good. Tender and flavorful. The quessabirria tacos were really good. I really enjoyed those.The problem was the steak tacos. Holy lord. Probably the driest steak I've had to eat in a long time. Such a bummer.
I came here for Taco Tuesday and I stayed for the margaritas. $1.25 for a taco!!! I haven't seen those prices for a quality "street taco" since my blue spandex biker shorts were in style! The decor and atmosphere was very authentic, my booth seat was all loose and wobbly just like the restaurants I visited in Tijuana as a child. The margaritas were very nice, although I wish they came in the same glasses that the horchata came in instead of the cheap disposable plastic cups. I definitely would come back again, thanks Marandos Bar & Restaurant.
Went in 30 mins prior to close…the energy of the place wasn’t great, felt like they were a bit rude towards us when we asked if we could place our to go order after standing there waiting for someone to address us. My friend and I both picked up on an attitude from one of the male employees. The food was bland, dry and seemed like leftovers from 2 days prior. Except for the pupusa’s & dessert (those were yummy). Bummer as I had seen several great reviews and was excited to try but that experience has left me not wanting to return. :(
I love the place greatly and all they do for our community but the times I've eaten here, I did not like the food. I had pupusas and any other time I'm there ( I live down the street) I've ordered enchiladas. The pupusas were a little cold and the enchiladas didn't have much taste, but other than that the experience was pleasant. I had to give 3 stars because as much as I loved the place, I didn't love the food.
I’ve never been in here before. Went in tonight for my birthday dinner. This place is my all time new favorite place! The quesabirria tacos were out of this world delicious and highly highly highly recommend this place to everyone! The staff was friendly, the service was quick and the food was on par! ??? Thank you guys for the delicious birthday dinner and we will be back very soon!
I became a little obsessed with papusas while living in Seattle and am so excited to have found this place in Spokane. Loved the zuchini and cheese as well as the pork papusas we got. The salsas and curtido were great too. We also got their quesabirria tacos which were really good. And SO reasonably priced! 10/10 will be back
We couldn't decide on what to do for lunch. One of us wanted crepes, the other one had that recently, the gf was not getting in between siblings...fine, let me think about it. I jumped in the shower and as the water from the shower hit my head, it hit me, pupusas!I called the sister and said, "PUPUSAS." "Yassss queen," she responded. We packed into her car and stopped at the only place where pupusas are exactly like the ones we've had at Salvadoran restaurants in Los Angeles.This was the first time that the gf would be trying a central american dish. I placed the fixings on her pupusa and watched her take her first bite... A look of sheer delight crossed her face.Marandos, you did not disappoint.
This place came highly recommended to me and I enjoyed it. More then Mexican food.
Great food friendly service
