Our reservations weren't honored and while we were waiting to get seated, 2 other parties showed up without reservations and were seated before us. One party was told they could sit at the bar and the other group had a table setup for them on the patio. Our reservation was for sitting inside but we ended up having to sit outside. Not an issue on sitting outside but waiting after others that didn't have reservations...unacceptable. Why make reservations an option when you don't honor them. The service was horrible. The waitress only checked on us one time. We had to ask someone else to refill our drinks. Food was just okay.

Food was delicious, cocktails awesome, loved the atmosphere. Best Mexican food we've had in a long time.

We were seated almost immediately with our reservation; service people were all friendly and informative. My meal was wonderful; my husband's felt mixed about his meal was ok, not warm enough, felt the beans seemed oddly smoky, and preferred sauce on the side of chiles relents as opposed to covering the plate. Basically, we were happy and will come back to try other dishes.

Wonderful dining experience where everything on the menu is so delicious it makes it hard to decide.

Food absolutely amazing (Mickey Mouse Pancakes were such a hit with our 4 kiddos!) The adults feasted on the BEST Mexican entrees, nothing short of perfect!!! Margaritas were generously poured...yep, a ‘buzz' off ONE is an unusual occurrence at most other restaurants! Service was OUTSTANDING!!! Foot note for this location ~ smaller than expected ~ large parties can be accommodated, a reservation is essential. We opted for patio seating...a bit noisy with traffic, and the car wash next door simply prompted “Working at the Car Wash” karaoke-style fun! A great experience for all of us...thank you Amelia's!!!

Outstanding. Just moved here from Southern CA with loads of Mexican food. This dinner was one of the best. The enchiladas with red and green sauce were so flavorful. The best beans yet great service too. We will be back!!!

We went here because of all the rave reviews and awards they had acquired. Unfortunately our experience was very different. The interior of the restaurant is tiny (8-9 small tables?) and very noisy with loud music blaring, The patio outside seats more but it's right on Grant so very noisy and hot. The food was just "ok" there are definitely much better Mexican restaurants in town. Perhaps we didn't order the right dishes, but we don't plan to go back with so many other places to choose from for Mexican food.

Not very good food was just marginal. I was very surprised because it had such good reviews elsewhere.
Misty
Food was delicious and service was excellent. Our first time and we will definitely be back!
Miriam
The food is very flavorful and very close to the real Sonoran flavors. If you order a plate of tacos, be aware that they are very small. If you are very hungry go for the burrito (big size). The margarita wasn't outstanding, but you can order some aguas frescas instead.
Fun, fast dinner that was excellent! A couple cut us off in the parking lot and ran in front of us to get a table before us...but our reservation got us a table just as quickly. So there was some incidental entertainment as well!

Fabulous find. Best food, best service and the skinny margaritas made to order were perfect!

Made a reservation for 12:15. Arrived at 12:11 and no table available. Had to sit at the bar. Very uncomfortable. The restaurant sat walk ins, and didn't care nor accommodate a reservation. Parking is very limited. The restaurant is only realistically for ambulatory patrons. Food is good, but the seating and parking are a mess.

Food was good. Received most of what I ordered. Food was good. Only salsa with chis was spicy. Rest would not offend my midwestern neighbors. Table next to us had frequently screaming toddler. Would have been nice to be initially seated away from the screaming.
