In 2016, we opened the doors to Rafael Mexican Grill with one simple goal: to share the flavors of Mexico with our community here in Salinas.
Before opening the restaurant, I spent years working in different kitchens around the city, learning the craft, sharpening my skills, and dreaming of one day having a place of my own. That dream came true thanks to hard work, the support of my wife, and our shared love for great food and hospitality.
We’re a family-run business—my wife and I work side by side every day to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for every customer who walks through our door. When you come in, you’re not just a customer—you’re part of our extended family.
Our food is simple, fresh, and made with heart. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sharing a meal with loved ones, we’re proud to serve authentic Mexican dishes that remind us of home.
Gracias for supporting local. We look forward to seeing you soon.
