One of my favorite places to eat! Service is amazing, food and drinks are amazing. We always feel like family here. You must get the Molcajete we’ve got both and i think the traditional is my fav. So much flavor. For drinks I always get La Toxica if you haven’t been this is your sign.

Excellent service! The food was very flavorful and the specialty dish in the last image attached was perfectly seasoned giving a great grilled tastes, a favorite for sure. Price wise, you have to be ready to spend a few dollars extra but it’s worth the flavors. And the drinks tasted as wonderfully as presented!

My partner and I have this thing where we try out a new spot in search of the best molcajate dish. We came to Don Kamaron on a Saturday night close to 8pm and there was a 25 min wait. Seeing how packed the place was, the line of people waiting to be seated only enticed us more! When seated, we were greeted with the best customer service i've received in a long time! Our waitress thanked us for our patience, and was personable with us through out our entire time there. We of course got the molcajate. Chicken, Steak, Chorizo, and The best shrimp! The cactus and cheese were perfectly cooked. This molcajate has made its way to #1 on our list and we have tried many molcajates. The hot cheeto sushi was good too but wouldn't necessarily re order. We got shot of whiskey that were poured at our table and filled to the tippy top! We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

I've been here twice now and have had a great experience each time. The food, service, and drinks are top notch I also appreciated that they were able to accommodate a table of 17 and provide separate checks. The staff members were amazing, and it was an added bonus knowing that they were also bilingual.

First time in, Jennifer was quick to greet and seat us, food was tasty and served swiftly. The restrooms area could be cleaned more so odors don't mix with the smell of food. Other than that the place was great.

It was my first time here. All the waiters were 10/10 friendly and really beautiful people! Jennifer was the server for me and my sister, she was so professional and made sure everything was per our liking. Everything was 11/10 and the drinks are pretty awesome
