    This restaurant never disappoints for authentic Mexican cuisine! While everything I've tried so far on the menu is delicious, my favorite is the tamales. Whether you choose pork or chicken, you cannot go wrong with tamales from El Sinaloense! Definitely one of my top 5 favorite restaurants in the Peninsula.

    Sinaloense is our "go to" restaurant whenever we want real Mexican food. We eat there at least twice a month and always take out of town visitors there for an authentic Mexican meal. The food is fresh and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant is kid-friendly and we often see large Mexican families celebrating there.

    Extensive menu, good margaritas and guacamole. Ambiance could be improved though, but service was friendly and efficient. I think it's the overall best Mexican restaurant around. It's nice to be seated and have your order taken vs going through a "line". for the same type of food.
