EL California Mexican Grill

Must stop ✋ place for a bite. You can enjoy your drink in a very unique kind of mug. Very reasonable price.

Lovely spot! Felt like it was hard to find what we were looking for. But el California was just what we wanted. The only downside is they don’t serve alcohol.

Great food, great service!
Affordable. Nice people!

Had an amazing day spending time with my family Bryon and Jackie Killeen through Jesus Christ after an amazing worship service at the (Nueva Vida, (Pentacostal) First Assembly of God) in Waldron Brother Jose Banderas is doing great things for the Lord and this people Amen.

This place is always great. When we go across the Ouachita mountains we always stop in here.

I came in for the Subway couple doors down but Mexican food caught my eye.
When I walked in I wasn't greeted at the door, so I just grabbed a seat. After waiting a few minutes and getting passed over a few times, I was starting to regret my decision about this place. But when I finally got a señorita to come take my order, it was all aces from there.
Chips where good and crisp, salsa was good and flavorful. I asked for a spicier salsa; that was almost a mistake. Sauce #2 had a slow burn that just lingered and lasted longer than expected. The more you ate, the worse it got 🥵.
The rest of order was good enough for Jehovah, and maybe a birthright or two.

Great atmosphere and seems to be family owned and operated. Definitely leave a big tip, they deserve it.

Great food and friendly staff. Will go there again.

Best Jalisco I've ever tasted!!!

WOW! Was this delicious. We were coming through town and had heard this was a favorite in Waldron. It absolutely was the best! Clean, super friendly staff. Our waiter was very attentive. It's a drive for us but we will definitely make an effort to go back!

Service was awesome, friendly and fast!!!! Drinks, chips and salsa never made it 1/4 left without getting topped off. Group had all different meals and they were all outstanding. Will eat here again 100%

We stumbled across this restaurant while driving to Hot Springs. The food was excellent. Salas was flavored with spice and a cilantro.
The grilled chicken was tender. Shrimp was firm and not over cooked. And the steak burrito was enough to feed 2 of us.
One of our group had the ribeye 🥩 steak.
Good thick cut of steak.
Staff treated us like family.
Please don’t pass this place up.

From California visiting friends in Arkansas food was pretty good service was very good could have been a little bit more spicy on the salsa. Didn't have salsa verde or salsa habanero.

Great food! Good service. Nice atmosphere. Will always go back.
