Los Molcajetes - Roanoke

The first time here. We really liked it. Service and food were excellent. Very recommended if you like Mexican food!!

Overall was pretty good ,buffet needed attention and refreshed but was descent and service was good .Kids est free on Sunday's so that was nice

Starting to be one of my favorites. Two or three visits now and no complaints. Rare.

As time went on, more diners came in, the majority of whom also chose the buffet. The food was quickly replenished and soon looked much more appetizing. Everything was served at the appropriate temperature, whether hot or cold. The items I tried were delicious, though not very spicy. There was a large bottle of hot sauce on the table, along with several spicy options on the buffet for those wanting more heat. The chicken for the fajitas was tasty, although a bit chewy, and the ground beef could have used some salt. There were pre-packaged burritos with beef and chicken, but most other dishes allowed for customization based on personal preference. However, there were no traditional Mexican items like roasted chicken, fries, or potatoes (and I couldn’t find any ketchup). The salad bar featured pineapple, hard-boiled eggs, fresh vegetables, and a variety of fruits, along with all the usual salad fixings. The buffet included a wide selection of salsas, sour cream, grated cheese, and other tasty condiments that significantly enhanced the overall offering. Overall, the buffet was delicious, satisfying, and plentiful. With tax, the buffet came to $11.79, which felt like a great deal compared to the regular menu prices. I didn’t notice any lunch specials on the menu, so I assume the buffet is the main lunch option, as it seemed to be a favorite among diners. The waiter handled the meal payments to minimize contact. I noticed a sign at the buffet reminding diners to use plastic gloves, but there were none available. I would definitely return to this restaurant, perhaps a bit earlier for lunch next time. Parking was ample, and I also observed accessibility for wheelchairs.

I had dinner on a rainy Monday evening, and despite the dining room being mostly empty, the service was prompt and attentive. Thankfully, there were no delays during this quiet night. I was quite hungry, and the food really satisfied my cravings! I did wish my dish had been served a bit warmer, but overall, I enjoyed my meal, and the service was excellent.
