Azteca Mexican Restaurant #2

Beware of false prices on menu. They charge way more than advertised menu prices, at least $1 per item including drinks but the more your food costs the more they overcharge. They said if you want menu prices you need to pay cash; I guess so they don't report on taxes. I've never paid attention before but someone told me and they weren't wrong. Also There were no chips while waiting for order. And one of the owners is always eating on one of the tables when we go (while working), very unprofessional, I've never seen any other restaurant owners do that.

Friendly and extremely fast service. I had the asada, chorizo, and pollo street tacos and they were delicious! I’d highly recommend Azteca if you are in the area.

I went in and ordered Pozole and waited for about 10 min and then one of the workers come and tells me that that actually don’t have pozole and if I would like menudo or birria instead. I said I’d take the birria and when I get home and want to eat they gave me 3-4 small pieces of meat and a whole bunch of soup. I paid $23 dollars for this!!

I am visiting from out of town staying at the Courtyard next door to the shopping center where Azteca is located. The walk was easy but it has so much parking that if I drove it would be easy to park. Greeted warmly when I walked in. Sat down and everything looked good on the menu. I went with chips and salsa to start. The sauce was mild and perfect. Chips nice and thick not thin. I did add some salt but I do that a lot. Ordered the street tacos. Chicken, Carnitas and Carne Asada. Oh so good prepared on corn tortillas that tasted awesome. Had rice and beans and they taste as good as anything I have eaten at any Mexican restaurant. Also had a shrimp taco a La carte that was good too. I highly recommend and don’t think you will be disappointed.

Very delicious!

We got a taco plate and a huarache.

The huarache was huge and super delicious. I took the leftovers home and was able to eat twice off of it. It was very fresh and the al pastor meat was amazing. They also offer salsas, and the green one was great. I definitely recommend getting yourself a huarache if you’re hungry.

The taco plate was great too, and I liked that it came with rice and beans. The presentation was also really cute and fancy. The tortillas seem handmade also.

The service was great and the restaurant was clean and had nice tables and decor.

Great option for Mexican food in the AV 😼

Bad food, bad hygiene, bad attitude, long waiting time and they want to charge as if it were a 5 star restaurant, even though the establishment and quality of the food do not even reach one, I would never eat there again, he gave me a horrible stomach pain for 3 days, the Menudo that I unfortunately ate was spoiled and according to the owner it was well cooked, I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL

First: there's no tangible menu. Just a QR code at the table. The code doesn't take you to a website. It takes you to a PDF. I don't want to automatically download a PDF. I just want a physical, real-life menu. I don't want to scroll and pinch zoom on my own phone. I just want a menu either in my hands or above the front counter. I'm with the boomers on this. Just print out a menu.

Second: very short-staffed. If you're this understaffed, just close the place. Or manage better. Hire more workers. Can't afford to? Close. After ordering lunch for 3 people, it was over FIFTY minutes before we were served our plates. We watched about 4 different groups of customers walk in to take out, and they were all served their orders before us. No, it didn't appear that they had ordered ahead of time.

Third: the server wasn't friendly or even cordial. He seemed annoyed that we were there. When he finally brought our food, there were no table settings/silverware/napkins/etc., so I asked, and he bluntly said, "yeah, I'm bringing them."

Fourth: the temperature of the restaurant. Please, if it's over 100° outside, turn on your air conditioner and close the front door.

Fifth: prices. With a wait time of 50+ minutes, rude service, a QR code menu, sweltering heat, and this being lunch for only 3, maybe it shouldn't cost over $75 for mediocre food. Though the chicken was very tender, the enchiladas were a bit too salty, as was the server.

They have a lot to fix. Especially because just a couple hundred feet away is Mi Ranchito, where similar food costs a bit less, the air conditioning is on, there are plenty of workers, service is fast, and there's a giant menu above the front counter.

Ordered fish tacos, got two pieces fried fish in two tuff tortillas with some Coleslaw on top. Told the guy I was eating in but when he gave me my food it was packaged as to go. Sat down and ate, when I left I picked up all my trash in the bag and to be nice I took it up to the counter. He tells me the trash can is outside. Don't plan on eating there again and think I'll tell Cycle Gear on bike night they should get someone else to cater food for them.

The Menudo was Fire the best I have had in a very long time. I USED to go to the location on palmdale Blvd and 10st west. BUT THE LAST TIME WE WERE SERVED OLD MENUDO THAT WAS VERY LEMONY TO COVER UP THE OLDNESS OF it...worst ever!!

Parking: Plentiful of spots Not crowded at all!
