Tortilla Flats - Placerville

Super yummy! Great staff! We came for dinner after spending the afternoon at Apple Hill. Tortilla Flatts has been a go-to for my husband since college, so whenever we're in the area (from Reno), we stop in. The plates were big enough for our kids to share 2 to a plate. The chips are absolutely lovely warm! Our eldest tried the queso fondito (something none of us had tried before), and he said it was delicious! Other favorites were enchiladas, burritos, roasted chile quesadillas, and happy hour taquitos. My husband said the margaritas were really good! We ended up sitting in the bar/ cantina area instead of the dining area so we could take advantage of the happy hour specials. It was kind of nice being in a location that was a bit livelier, especially with younger kids. Kind of drowned out their kid noise.

Traffic was terrible on the 50 so we pulled into town and found thus gem. I feel like My mother in law cooked this meal. She is from Michoacan and doesn't mess around with food. Incredibly fresh. Great portions and nothing out of a can. Jalapeño bacon poppers, Red Chile Verde, and asada street tacos. Wash it down with a Negro Modelo for a perfect lunch! Make this a stop on your way to or from Tahoe. You won't be disappointed. I'd like just a bit more energy in the environment. It's almost too quiet. Maybe open the big windows to the street. Then I'm really part of the town.

I've been coming for 3 years now. Service, especially from Roxy, Tracy and Frany, is great. A great happy hour, delicious food and great staff. To address something posted earlier, the regular patrons downtown know who Ashley D is. Honestly we all (customers and staff at literally every restaurant in town) would appreciate it if she would quit going out in public in Placerville. She ruins the atmosphere at every location, makes people uncomfortable, hasn't learned makers and that review is absolutely bogus. For such an impatient person, she and her husband should stay at home. Really, the entire food scene in town talks about her but can't say anything without the fear of a yelp review. Just know that everyone is having a good laugh at the temper tantrums.

Not sure why this place only has 3.5 stars. I would give it 5 given the experience but, 4 it is. I save the 5 for exceptional. However, this place gets from me a well deserved 4. The staff was nice and the establishment itself is pretty cool. We had lunch. I had the Buffalitas (wings and my husband had the chicken tortilla soup. Both dishes well delicious and well executed. And I had the best sangria and that is something to say (I 'm kind of a connoisseur in this area I watch as it was prepared and it was legit. Oh and the red and green salsas are delicious too.

Incredible experience! We were genuinely greeted warmly and seated quickly. There was no wait for some ice waters and wonderful chips and salsa complete with Red salsa as well as green salsa. The server was kind, helpful and took our order right away. We were amazed at the savory delicious food! Hot! Tasty! Wonderful! You gotta try this place!
