Wow a very nice place to gather with friends and go back in time to the Mission times. Parking is very limited. So plan to walk for a few blocks. For people in your party that have a hard time moving it would be wise to drop them off in the parking lot.

Of all the nearby restaurants this is the original. This is as much a destination as the nearby mission. We came in a Sunday at noon because there are mariachis to enjoy. They have a great Sunday brunch menu with most of their favorites on it. We started with table side prepared guacamole. They make their own chips in a dedicated fryer. Both very good. I look at the menu but I already know my order. It's been the same for fifty years. It's the presidents choice. The order was made famous by a past president who had his western White House near by and frequented the Adobe. Always good. The mariachis were awesome. Love to see those guys play.

The fajitas (tough and dry) and tortillas (I got corn and flour) were not as good as in 2020 when I came here last. Don't think I will be back as often as I was thinking. Great service and friendly staff. There was an event and there was cigar/cigarette smoke in the restaurant, it was wafting all the way to the front patio through the restaurant doors (I have asthma and didn't bring my inhaler to a restaurant). Not very appetizing. Drinks, guac, and chips were very good. The sauce on the burrito was a little too sweet. The toasted coconut was a nice touch on the coconut margaritas. Maybe just drinks and chips next time. Too pricey for the quality. Definitely quantity over quality here. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $30–50 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 2

I must say, I love Mexican food and this was a HIT!! I love an Adobe building and this historical building met my expectations. Because the history is there, there is one toilet for the women, so don't wait. I had salsa and chips which were really good, spicy but not too hot and unlimited. My Mahi Mahi fish taco was 5⭐, really flavorful, just the right amount of every flavor and crunch and texture. I thought the rice was superior in flavor and texture and the beans complemented it nicely. After a walk around the historic area it was a nice lunch.

The food is delicious and really good serving sizes. I shared a shrimp enchilada dish and it was amazing, but also quite filling! They are also quite accommodating to dietary requirements.
