White cheese sauce is delicious! Mole enchiladas are also really good. They have a good selection of flavored margaritas & mojitos.

Got the Tostada Grande... loved it! The food and service are great here. One thing though... DO NOT let them sit you in the lounge area patio chairs. They are too short and awkward for those tables.

I went here with my family after a long day at Legoland. We loved the chips & queso, piña coladas, and great authentic food. We will gladly return.

Kyle is an awesome bartender! Ask him to make you their Ultimate Margarita...and you'll love the jalapeño white sauce they serve with chips for free!

Sit in the lounge or at the bar, even if you're ordering dinner. With TV's and more seating options, it's the best way to experience Miguels

Like many have mentioned, the queso blanco dip with the free chips is great, but after that the rest is just kinda meh. Not bad, but for southern CA not up to what you expect for Mexican food.

Attentive service and plenty of menu options to satisfy all. Pretty big kids menu too.

The white cheese dip was delish! The chile relleno was good too. Rice and refried beans needs more work.

Camarones Jalisco are amazing!!! Who could ask for more shrimp with cheese wrapped in bacon in white sauce yum

Their queso dip is the bomb! Love their fish tacos too.

Try the Enchiladas suizas with beef (shredded) instead of chicken. Excellent service. Thank you.

Food is fast, felt slightly rushed... But overall great food and service

Order any of the fish entrees! It's all fresh!

Fabulous service from Cassie and all the staff. Great food. Glad we found it.

The carnitas were well-seasoned. The rice and beans needed some work though.
Lauren LittleJuly 7, 2012
We decided to come here on a whim. Vegetarian selection is pretty much nonexistent. Even the rice has chicken stock it.

The food was excellent and the wait staff quite friendly.

Great place in Carlsbad! Bottomless mimosas!

Enchiladas suizas are very good. DO NOT order the Miguel's ice tea unless you like the taste of watered down cough syrup.

Beautiful restaurant, good service, and the food is pretty average. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again.

The Blanco Queso Dip is aaaamazing!

Go someplace else if you're wanting great service. Good food but service is poor as often as not.
