One star folks...the table my mother and I were seated at was dirty, the food was greasy, and the service was slow.
After hearing all the hype and then trying it for myself, the old adage rings true: don't believe everything you hear.

I feel that tres hermanas has the most authentic mexican food i have had on the grid. I love eating here when in the mood for mexican. It's close, but not exactly as close to my moms.
So I'm not looking for anyone to put a napkin in my lap and cut my enchilada for me but the service at Tres Hermana's is not exactly kind. The food however is wonderful and that's the main reason I come back. The margaritas ain't bad either. :) I recommend the Camarones. Yum!
But way over priced for what you get. It's good authentic Mexican food at gourmet prices. I wish I could afford to eat there more often since I work across the street, but it's just not worth the price you pay. Service is iffy. When it's good, it's great, but when it's bad, you're left wondering why you went there.
Sin queso

I asked for a meal without cheese. It came with cheese bits here and there. I sent it back and clarified that I didn't want any cheese in it, and added that it had probably gotten tossed in by accident (through mixing of prep ingredients and a hectic kitchen). But when the dish came back again...once again I found cheese in it. I can understand the first time, but the second time they should have been more careful. I really wanted to like this place,....but it's just not for me.
Unpretentious, good food

I eat at Tres Hermana about every two weeks. Service is fast and polite. I love the house salad dressing, the ceviche salad and the carnitas. Takeout is packaged nicely with all the extras.
I heard nothing but good stuff about this place so I was pretty excited to check it out. The 2 times that I have gone, I got pretty crappy service. Their food is a little overpriced for what it is (The beans seem really really cheap) and I have had way better. I don't plan on returning
This place serves good food in a pleasant atmosphere. Patio dining is great on mild Sacramento days. While they will take reservations for larger parties, don't assume they will be honored – or even acknowledged. After making a reservation recently for a birthday celebration with friends, the hostess told us there was no reservation and that I must have called a different restaurant. Even after I proved to her that I had called this restaurant, she offered no accommodation.
I have not been able to find good Mexican food since I moved from San Diego. Tres Hermanas impressed me greatly and I recommend it to everyone. Some people say it's a little pricey, but it's not a taco stand. It's a whole experience including the ambience, the food, the drinks and the people. The amount and quality of the food is exquisite and makes Tres Hermanas one of my top five restaurants in Sacramento. Try the Carnitas! To die for........
If the restaurant is busy, it can be tough to get a seat. But what that translates to in the restaurant business is quality food and good service if the crowds come back week after week, and they do. The food is very tasty and not too salty, an issue I have with many Mexican places. The prices are a bit higher than other places in this level of dining, but if you skip the drinks and stick with dinner it can be affordable for those on a budget. My only issue is in the past there was some errant meat in my veggie dish, which was concerning for me as a vegetarian. I did not mention it to the staff though.
This is probably the best non-taqueria, Mexican restaurant in the city. The house dressing on the starter salad has a lightness that is uniquely satisfying. A lot of combinations to use from among the entrees; I always have such a hard time deciding what to eat here! Also, a little pricey for Meixcan, but the decor is charming and the food is quite authentic, so I don't mind too much.
The best mexican food in the grid. They have great salsas, a daily soup, and some pretty tasty lunch specials. Their prices are pretty high for what you normally pay at similar restaurants, but you certainly get quality for it in return.

The last time I visited Tres Hermanas on K St. in Midtown was spring ’07.I went inside and ordered a Negra Modelo to cool down from the late spring heat.Looking over the menu and with a craving for Mexican food, I had to try the seafood Ceviche.It came with chips and a hard corn tortilla.Finding good Ceviche in Sacramento is hard and they have mastered the craft.
The food wasn’t priced as low as I would have liked but after spending roughly $25 on beer, water and lunch, I left feeling satisfied.
Dirty, Greasy, Slow

Tasty Mexican, Snug Atmosphere

Great for sitting down to some Mexican eats!
