Mandiles is a little strip mall spot, tucked in between the licensing office and a few other businesses so very understated in it’s entrance. Once we passed through the door though, everything changed and we were transported into another dimension! A Mexican dimension! We were greeted with genuine hospitality and friendly smile, invited to sit wherever we wanted and immediately given menus and chips and salsa. The place is very clean and colorful with great music playing at the perfect level. We ordered the pork belly appetizer and each got an order of birria tacos. The pork belly was a large portion and good just wish it was sauced or seasoned rather than the honey and hot sauce, but it was rendered perfectly. The birria tacos were some of the best we’ve had, actually the second best ever! There was plenty of cheese, the consume was rich and packed with flavor and the meat literally melted in our mouth. They were piping hot and stayed hot the entire meal. We’ll definitely be back, I’d love to try so many more things on the menu!

The food was mostly great. Fresh tortilla chips, tasty salsa, My friend got a queso cheese dip to go with the chips and it was really good. We both liked our entrees.
Service was extremely fast.

We grabbed takeout from Mandiles and were genuinely impressed. I don’t usually rate places five-star ratings, but this meal earned it. The flavors were bold and fresh, the portions generous, and everything held up great even after the drive. They’ve got Taco Tuesday deals and happy hour specials from 2-5pm M-F.
Everything tasted authentic. If I had to offer one small critique, it’d be the refried beans—they were a bit soupy for my taste. Not a dealbreaker, just something to note. Overall, Mandiles delivered a standout takeout experience. Definitely recommend!

This is my new favorite Mexican restaurant in Bremerton! The burrito was humongous and packed with flavor — it had the best carne asada I’ve ever had, and all the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. The flan was the creamiest and absolutely delicious. Kudos to whoever made these delightful dishes!

Stopped in while visiting and was very glad I chose this place. I had the carne asada and it was delicious. There was no grissle or fat in the meat and the flavor was perfect. The rice and beans were tasty, too. The service was just right, friendly and attentive but not too much. I don’t often leave reviews but this place deserved my time to post one. The interior is ok, could use some finishing touches to make it less “cold” feeling but it was clean – including the restroom which is always a plus. I recommend this place!

Having tried a few different places around Bremerton, we didn’t have high expectations. We were pleasantly surprised! Service was good. The free chips and salsa were very fresh and crispy. The meals were very well made, presented and tasted great. In fact we returned a few times while visiting Bremerton and highly recommend them.

We ordered the burrito grande for takeout. The burrito didn’t taste bad & service was good. My only complaint is the contents of the burrito weren’t mixed together before putting on the tortilla. All the rice was on one end & all the beans were on the other, with the protein/guac was in the middle. Is it too much to ask to mix all the ingredients together in a bowl first? It’s really irritating to take a bite and all you get one ingredient of the burrito. Please consider this. It would make your restaurant stand out as plenty of other Mexican places in the area don’t do this either.

With great reviews, it ended up being extremely underwhelming and disappointing.
The location is central and convenient with access to lots of other shops and stores. The staff is super friendly and will try to upsell you constantly on everything. We were offered more drinks by three people and dessert twice, which was a bit obvious.
The food was an absolute bummer. The cheese dip was watery with super salty chorizo. The guacamole was good and seemed to be fairly fresh. The pibil was obviously not fresh along with the rice and beans. Everything seemed to have a weird film and old flavor. I don’t expect it to be fresh, but at these prices, it’s got to be better.
It’s a Mexican joint in a small community, so it is bound to be middle of the road. Just have reasonable expectations.

I had a helluva week. Shoutout to Mandiles Mexican Grill for perfect tacos and Chorizo queso. I appreciate you!
The queso has heat without being offensive. Chorizo is all the way through…every bite.
The carne asada tacos were so tender with just the right amount of cilantro, onions and lime.
A little queso over that rice is

The food is 5 stars but service is lacking. Had one waitress spill a cup of ice water on me and acted upset when I kept picking ice cubes out of my purse, I was confused why she was upset because was I supposed to keep the ice in my purse??
The second time I dined in a different waitress brought me the wrong drink and gave me a death stare when I told her I had ordered a Mexican coke, and then ignored our table the rest of the night. Sorry wish I could give 5 stars because the kitchen staff is amazing but the wait staff needs to treat their customers a little better!
