We had a party of seven and it was great service and friendly. The fresh guacamole was fantastic! If you like avocado, you have to try. All our entrees were great, all loved what they had. Very recommended to try this place! View all feedback. What DiningGuide Reader doesn't like about Guadalajara Mexican:
Waiter spilled cheese off a taco in my lap. It happens. Asked for more cheese or another taco. Brought a taco, but picked up the other with his fingers from my plate and took it away. View all feedback.
