Great food, reasonable prices. We had mixed fajitas (lunch portion which was huge) and an excellent vegetarian Enchiladas Verdes. Salsa was outstanding. Service, not so much?.

The staff was friendly and prompt. The food was delicious and this will definitely become one of our go to Mexican spots. Jalapeno fajitas were very spicy and delicious. The steak supermo was also delicious. The beans with the chips were cooked beans and one of the best I have had, not just some regualr refried beans plopped in a bowl.

we actually went on a bingo night which was nice. the food is pretty good. Not really kid friendly but it’s a good place to go meet up with friends and not spend too much.

Ordered through Uber Eats twice and everything was good, fresh and seasoned to perfection. I only left 4 stars for Atmosphere since I haven’t visited the actual restaurant. Will update once I visit.

Having lived in Arizona for 12 years I found the food offer at El Olmeca Mexican Cantina was well prepared and was very delicious. The menu offers a variety of options all of which I look forward to enjoying.

Salsa and guacamole were absolutely fresh and flavorful! My chicken fajita salad was plentiful with lots of crisp vegetables like I prefer it. Also the vegetables were not soggy which can make the whole dish less appealing. My husband's carnitas burrito also had crisp vegetables, and the salsa verde he requested instead of the listed burrito sauce was very good. Our server Toño was efficient and courteous. We have been many times to the location in Hampton Cove and found this one just as good.

Where do I start? Wow…I could describe this restaurant with one word. PERFECTION. I’ll give it 3 words, FLAVOR, BALANCE, FRESHTruly the best meal I’ve ever had at any restaurant. The flavors were so balanced, starting with the fresh salsa with a subtle hint of garlic, right amount of salt and cilantro. Our waiter recommended I get the chicken burrito. I was hesitant. Boy was he right. I’ve never had shredded chicken taste so good. Juicy, and savory and the subtle hints of Mexican spice. I ordered a fresh salad too! Super duper fresh! The kids had cheese quesadillas and Spanish rice. The rice is phenomenal. Never in my life of 40 years have I enjoyed a meal like this from start to finish. The service was great. The decor is very bold and the restaurant is super clean! What more could anyone ask for? Bravo to the chef at this restaurant!!!
