Sooo, a funny thing happened on the way to dinner one day…we were craving GOOD Mexican food. Not that there isn’t a lot of good Mexican food out there, but let’s be real, much of if is bland and boring. We have driven by Los Robles Café numerous times and had heard good things about it so we decided to check it out since we had not been there together before. Located on Spring Street in Paso Robles the vibe inside is mellow and casual but the people know what they’re doing, especially if you go by their Yelp reviews.
In other words, good service, very friendly people, and just an overall casual vibe.
And The FOOD at Los Robles Cafe???
The food was awesome. Hoot got two chicken enchiladas with rice and beans while Annie got the asada burrito…and my was that a GRANDE burrito. Layers of cheese, meat and all the extras made it an incredible dinner! AND, and tasty lunch the next day! The enchiladas were more than your standard chicken and tortilla…lots of spice and flavor, saucy and cheesy made these special.
Apparently, Los Robles Cafe is known for their Al Pastor. We know this because they have a whole station set up out near the street (Vine Street) in a separate part of the restaurant that is completely geared for selling the traditional Mexican “street tacos”. You know the ones…where they carve the hot meat right off the huge, rotating skewers of pork. You can bet that next time we’re in we’ll give the Al Pastor tacos a try! They were selling like hotcakes! Okay…like tacos!
Great flavors, great menu, and very fair prices leads us to put this on our list as top three Mexican food joints in our area!!
Check them out on Yelp and let the world know what you think…

If this is the cafe I THINK it is (on the east side of Spring in downtown)……It’s the best place in Paso for Mexican food! We’ve been to a few others, and were VERY disappointed. Living in North East LA County all my life, I am spoiled with an excellent variety of Mexican food places that boast authentic cooking styles from all regions of Mexico. So when we FINALLY found this one…our eyes popped out of our heads!
Cheerz Guys! 😛 ~YUM~
Sounds like the same spot, Mo! We LOVED it and will be back soon!!! Hard to beat some good Mexican food, that’s for sure!
