El Nuevo Mexicali Ii - Porterville

Real authentic Mexican food, always delicious with freshly homemade tortillas and generous portions.

I ordered the taco salad . It was simple but delicious and filled me up. The wife oreded crispy chicken salad that had more variety of flavored, definitely trying that next time . Portions are good, staff friendly, and helpful with daughters' dairy allergy . She was able to get an asada burrito, which she loved.

Picked up food . And the rice n beans were horrible. Different taste . I thought you can never go wrong with cheese enchiladas. But dam , cheese was not melted and not enough sauce (DRY . I refuse to ever eat here again . The one on main taste wayyyyg better .

A well established restaurant recommended to us by a friend, and we were well pleased. After stepping in the door I realized we had been here 16 years prior. They offer grand proportions and quality food. A single platter will serve us for two full meals so, therefore, our meal is well worth the price. The dining room is very comfortable and quiet and the service was fantastic. We will return.

El Nuevo on prospect has never been that good. The food is overall not good. It’s a waste of money so don’t even go here. The service is so slow. The atmosphere is just archaic. Looks like they haven’t updated it since 2005. Also with their reservations for their party room area if you don’t read the contract completely there are penalties for not having the amount of people you said you were going to have whether it’s under the amount or over the amount. So just don’t even waste your time here.
