Hidalgo’s Cocina & Cócteles

Horrible food. My husband ordered the wet burrito. The sauce had a very strange tangy taste, maybe just not to our liking. I told him to just cut it open and eat the inside. The inside was very salty and lemony. I had the enchilada plate. The rice was too salty to eat and the beans had zero flavor. The enchiladas had the same sauce as the burrito and I couldnt stand the tangy taste. My sister had the cochinita pipil and the black beans were so salty that she didn't even touch it after the first bite. The meat was just ok, very fatty. The only thing that was exceptional was the service. Our waitress was very attentive and provided fast service. She comped all our meals because they just were not edible. We still gave her what would have been an 18% tip for the full meal because it was not her fault and she really was wonderful. The manager never came out to talk to us, maybe they are tired of hearing complaints. Will not be returning.

Restaurant is near our home and was our first time trying it out. Waitresses were great and food presentation is great but food itself was not what we expected. All food was super salty. Not just one plate but the majority of them. And overheard another table had the same issue. The manager was notified by the waitresses and did nothing about it. Will definitely not be back.

The food is always fantastic and no matter what I order I am always delighted with my meal! Rigo recommended some dishes from their new menu and their new dishes are absolutely delicious. Servers are also great and always efficient, happy and polite. They also have amazing drinks, their handcrafted Cocktails wow just perfection . Can't wait to return and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in Fullerton! Love this place
