Norte Mexican Food offers a lively atmosphere perfect for celebrations with family and friends. The attentive service ensures that meals are served promptly and at the right temperature. Customers can enjoy delicious food and drinks, creating lasting memories. Despite some changes in taste over the years, the food is still pretty good, with hopes for a return to the original menu preparation. The supervisor goes the extra mile to ensure guests are happy, even during busy times. While the experience may not be an exact match to the original, Norte Mexican Food remains a good option for Mexican cuisine in North County San Diego.
The restaurant's Albondigas soup is reported to be good, but the service has been inconsistent, with some guests feeling that the servers need retraining to show a more positive and friendly attitude. The food quality has also been mixed, with some orders arriving quickly and the plates being extremely hot, suggesting the food had been reheated. Additionally, there have been instances of servers reaching over customers to serve others, which was deemed uncomfortable and unprofessional.
However, a long-time customer has praised the restaurant's queso fundido, la pachanga, and soups as amazing, along with the margaritas and tacos. They also recommend checking out the specials on the sandwich board before getting seated, and note that the patio has heaters, making it a nice place to sit outside and people-watch. Overall, the customer reviews suggest that Norte Mexican Food remains a popular option for Mexican cuisine in the area, with both positive and negative experiences reported.
