Only one person serving and work as bartender , waiters, server.Bad customer services. Margarita was disgusting. Mixing a lot of drink for one simple margarita make me sick.

There’s meat in the bean dip! You must try the bean dip with slow roasted pork hidden inside. The crunchy tacos are great, but that bean dip surprised me. I also like the colorful Mexican decor.

Went in on a semi-rainy day, and the food complemented the food perfectly. I ordered the Pollo De Crema which was delightful & delicious. The service was great, chips w/ a spicy salsa, and the plating was in big proportions. Beans, rice, salad & your dish with foil-wrapped tortillas. I 100% recommend trying this place out to fulfill your authentic Mexican food experience.

On our inaugural Friday night visit, we were met with sluggish service and inattentive servers. Despite being assured of a table shortly after arrival, we ended up waiting as it remained uncleared, with staff seemingly preoccupied elsewhere. Even after flagging another staff member, the table remained untouched until we insisted it was ready. The waitress was slow to attend to us, and unfortunately, the food didn't meet our expectations. To add to the chaos, confusion ensued during payment, with one server taking my credit card while another was prompting me for payment. It took some time for them to reconcile the error. Overall, this experience left much to be desired, and I cannot see myself returning. For those seeking alternatives, I would suggest exploring Casa de las Flores, Juanita's, or LOS REYES DE LA TORTA.

I work across the southwest and east coast and love trying out new restaurant' when I travel. I can comfortably say that Anaya's punches leagues above what they should. Anaya's restaurant is the best Mexican food I've had in terms of flavor, quantity, and friendliness of staff for a restaurant that is clean, well located, and safe to get to. I make it a point to stop at Anaya's every time I'm in the area.

Really loved the environment for date night! The art kept us talking while we sipped our horchata and margarita, both of which were great and we are picky about horchata! We both got burritos and I asked for mole on mine which was really authentic and delicious! Absolutely want to go back for the mole alone!

Food was terrible. Tamale was dry and falling apart and tasted like cinnamon. Taco was just awful. Tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp all day. This was my first time being here and, I will NOT be back.

One of the best in the Valley. Their salsa has 2 options mild or hot. I suggest hot if you can take the heat! We love the Mexican pizza, queso, enchiladas, fajitas, and so much more. Their margaritas are phenomenal as well. We go a lot but one time they had a 3 piece mariachi band, and would love to go back to see them again. If you haven’t been it’s definitely worth a try. It’s on her monthly rotation.Parking: Always plenty of parking.
