I recently had the pleasure of dining at Farolito, and I was not disappointed. The restaurant was bustling with activity, but the staff was attentive and efficient, ensuring that we were well-taken care of throughout our meal.
I started my meal with the Diabalito, a mango margarita that is served blended with a mini premium tequila bottle and garnished with a Tajin powdered rim. It was the perfect way to start my meal, refreshing and flavorful.
For my main course, I ordered the carnitas burrito, which was served wet. The carnitas were tender and flavorful, and the burrito was generously filled with all the fixings. It was one of the best burritos I've ever had.
The portions at Farolito are generous, so I had plenty of leftovers to take home. I was also impressed with the prices, which are very reasonable for the quality of the food.
Overall, I had a great experience at Farolito of Fullerton. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was fun and inviting. I highly recommend checking out this Fullerton staple if you're looking for a great Mexican meal.

Great experience. Quiet because it was a weekday afternoon and then it started to fill up. They have great customer service and the food was delicious. Prices were reasonable and we had food to take home. Definitely some where to go to again and again.



Food great, service a little slow and drinks good. Name of the drinks henchata and como la flor

The food is good. The atmosphere is upbeat. The service on June 27 was unusually poor, slow, and chaotic. It could have been a case of someone calling out so they were short-staffed. I've been to this place so many times and the service has always been great. But this Taco Tuesday was not the business. Overall Farolito's is a great place to have a great meal, a refreshing cocktail and cold beers. I definitely will be back.




The food was outstanding and delicious. However, the restaurant was very loud and uncomfortable. Service was slow due to full house. Homeless people were loud and obnoxious.



This little spot is on Harbor Blvd. in Downtown Fullerton, it's really clean, casual, with a friendly staff, and a great menu. It's the perfect little hole in the wall for a hot bowl of Menudo after a hard night of partying or gut busting plate of carnitas to start your Saturday off on the right!





I gave 4 instead of 5 stars. The atmosphere is great for dining the flavor of the food is wonderful too. Mexican platters don't usually have a lot of greens such a salads or things of that sort. So it is just the item you ordered and in this case a large burrito for lunch. This farolitos is quite busy during the Sunday lunch hour. Parking on Sundays is very convenient in the nearby multi-level parking structure which is a short walking distance. Update April 2023. Felt the salsa with the chips was a bit too hot for the general public, although it
may be ideal for the Latino pallet.
