Reviews
There’s something about good authentic Mexican Food. Whether you like spicy or something easier on the palette, nothing soothes the soul like a good chips and salsa, tacos or an enchilada. Think about it… when was the last time you had a tough day and then decided to eat Tacos and stayed in a bad mood? I’d be willing to bet never.
Guitarras has 3 physical locations and one food truck. The location I went to for this review was their first and original location at 157 Tom Hill Sr. Blvd. They opened this location 10 years ago so they’ve had plenty of time to get it right. And boy did they ever!
This place is just plain cute. It felt like I was walking into a friend’s house and “Abuela” was cooking for all of us. The smell instantly took me back to one of my favorite memories in Cozumel where we ate the most fantastic restaurant that served up old style family recipes. This is a family run business that uses old style family recipes and it shows!
Fun Fact: The Corn Tortillas and Chips are made every single morning from scratch in house!
For a Monday night around 630, they were pretty busy. One of the things I always look at whenever I go into a restaurant for the first time is how busy they are. Since moving to Macon, I know a lot of Maconites don’t really go out on Monday’s but Guitarras knows how to bring everyone out! I would say over half the restaurant was seated and everyone was busy putting their Fajitas together or scooping up the salsa. I. Was. Starving.
Our server, Katherine, quickly brought us Chips and Salsa and began telling us about the menu. She was so warm and welcoming. We instantly knew this was going to be a fantastic dinner.
What We Ordered:
Chips and Salsa (free)
The freshly made chips are lite and crispy accompanied with some of the freshest salsa around. The herbs in the salsa were bold but not spicy and packed with flavor.
Chorizo Dip = $9.75
Chorizo is a savory sausage (it’s not spicy despite looking like it would be with the red sauce) and the cheese is this beautiful white creamy cheese. This dip is phenomenal! Served with your choice is corn or flour tortillas. I will have dreams about this dip that will make me crave this frequently.
Carnitas = $15.49
Slow Cooked pulled pork that’s crisped right before cooking is always the way to go. Fresh cilantro, onion and tomatoes alongside home made corn tortillas and fresh sliced avocados is something that is a fun dish that you put together however you want. It’s savory and comes with your choice of Salsas on the side. Sidenote, the Green Salsa looks like a creamy avocado sauce but it’s going to QUICKLY remind you that it’s giving pepper vibes! It was really really good.
Combo Pick 3 = $14.29
I chose the Enchilada, Tamal, Avocado Salad. The Enchilada I had was chicken and it was alongside a chicken Tamal. The chicken was shredded and cooked perfectly without being dry. They were covered in a non-spicy red sauce and drizzled with sour cream. The Avocado salad was lettuce, tomato and fresh avocados covered in White Cheese. It was light, refreshing and really tasty. Served with tasty and well flavored Refried Beans and Rice was the perfect pair!
Summing it up, Guitarras is an absolutely wonderful place to go on a date night or out with the entire family. From the warm welcome, fresh meals and hospitality, this place will make a lasting impression that will surely be included in your weekly routine. Two dinners and an appetizer for two people for under $40 makes it an affordable night out as well.
The food was amazing, we were refreshed with the taste. The server was polite and attentive. They could have check on us little more, but we are not upset. cheese quesadilla was ordered but fajita quesadilla was brought. No complains though, we loved it. Will sure to return if we are back in the area.
FOOD: Chips and salsa were a great starter. The salsa is pretty spicy, but GREAT flavor! Thin chips (which I love), we’re served warm and fresh! I ordered the Chicken Chimichanga and as you can see from the pics, was a plate right out of a menu photo. It was super fresh and the shredded chicken was super tender. (Some shredded chicken used at restaurants gets “rubbery,” but this was great!) Be sure to ask for the jalapeño sauce, which was spicy, but VERY flavorful. My spouse had the Beef Taco Salad, and she said it was great!
SERVICE: Our waiter was on point, even tough the small place was packed! He was very attentive to everything.
OTHER: The restaurant is fairly small and when we were there, it was packed, so it was a little on the loud side, but tolerable. The food was very reasonably priced, so I felt it was a good value for the experience. The food also sat well on our stomachs (if that makes sense). NO exit stage left, immediately after , so that HAS to be a good sign!
OVERALL: If it were closer to our home, I would say that we had found our new Mexican restaurant of choice. If you are in Macon, GA, don’t hesitate to give it a try.
