Easy to find the place but the parking is not so easy though behind the building there are some chances to find a place to park one's car .
California Tortilla - as its name suggests it is about Mexican cuisine with American twist .
I was in a hurry when I ordered Quesadilla so I asked the Filipino cashier to suggest me one - and without paying attention to what she told me I took it . What can go wrong with a quesadilla - I thought ? Well it was sweet ! It was a BBQ sauce type ! Oh nooo ! I will never ask a Filipino to recommend me a dish again , They are into sweet sauces on stews -it is something that I can not bear .
The grilled chicken salad was good . The chicken breast was tender and generous size .The avocado dip was fantastic but the salad itself was not very original - some lettuce and tomatoes .It came in a fun eatable bowl .
The same went for the grilled beefsteak salad . My kids loved the nachos and the kids meal burrito .
Prices were less than in the Chilies but quesadillas are more expensive than in the DQ . I must admit that I prefer that one .
I am not an expert of Mexican food but some 20 years ago I remember visiting one Mexican restaurant in Heidelberg , Germany - it was an open buffet then . It surprised me then how much the dishes tasted like our Hungarian dishes .
Here I did not have this experience at all . I would call it not Mexican but " healthy version of American fast food with Mexican inspiration " . Why was there a long queue at the Food festival at their stall ? The only explanation I found is that there are so many Californians are living among us in Doha . They must have been homesick .
Service was nice and polite / the restaurant was spacious and clean and they had even a play area for kids .

I would agree that it is not traditional mexican food but more of a fast casual Tex-Mex restaurant. I hope that you have tried more mexican food than just the one you had in Germany, if you haven't you're truly missing out on something delicious and amazing. As an American with an Mexican background this place is good but there is definitely room for improvement.
