Hortencia's Mexican Grille
Their website says: "best Mexican food in
Skyforest." To me, that seems overly humble,
especially since Hortencia's is the only Mexican
restaurant in Skyforest. I'd say it's a tossup
between Hortencia's and Tony's for best
Mexican restaurant anywhere on the mountain.
Hortencia's is really excellent. It has become a
favorite stop of mine.
Prices are humble too: Salads cost around $8;
plates range from $10 to $14; burritos are $5 to
$8; taco's a la carte are $2.25.
We waited a while to take our group to
Hortencia's, because the dining room is small.
However, in warm
weather they have a large outdoor patio area,
and the staff can easily assemble a banquet table
seating 20.
They are located next door to LouEddie's Pizza
at 28575 Hwy. 18, Skyforest, CA 92385. A map is
below.
Phone (909) 337-7733. Members and friends
just show up. Others RSVP at (909) 744-8561.
We have been eating over at Hortencia's
Cliffhanger in cold weather. But in warm
weather when we can move onto the patio, the
Skyforest venu is actually the better place to
meet.
