I’m absolutely disappointed with my experience today, especially as a regular customer. I ordered a Texas Quesadilla and Elote to-go, and my total came to $33 which would have been fine if the food had been made correctly.

The Texas Quesadilla is supposed to come with shrimp, chicken, steak, grilled onions, and peppers for $17. I was charged an extra $2 for grilled onions and peppers, bringing my total to $19 but when I got home, I realized there was not a single shrimp in my quesadilla. How do you forget one of the main ingredients, especially at that price?

Then, my Elote was completely wrong. It had no mayo just cotija cheese and some seasoning. That’s not how Elote is supposed to be made, and it was honestly a waste of money.

For a place I frequently order at , this experience was beyond disappointing. $33 for food that wasn’t made correctly? I expected better.

The good: great atmosphere and staff was friendly, loved the porch. The portion sizes were generous.
The bad: service was very slow even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. We didn’t get asked if we needed refills or more chips at all. Server would walk right by our table and not check in.

The food was not good! Not authentic at all. Bland, lacking flavor, bad texture. How do you make steak with no flavor??? Just all around mediocre experience. Really disappointed.

I enjoyed eating my Taco salad last night out on the patio for my husband birthday ?. I don't eat outside at all but they had the heaters on so my family and friends weren't cold and the atmosphere was nice I wanted to sit outside and eat. The food was delicious and the amount of is worth spending your money there. When we order our food there wasn't a long wait for the food. It was fast, hot and it smelled so good. This was our first ? time coming to this restaurant and won't be the last. ?????????

Parking: More than enough parking. This was the main reason we came because we didn't have to circle around the parking lot to find somewhere to park. Once you pull into the parking lot, just park your car and walk in or use the sidewalk. Everything is easily opened.

Super nice traditional Mexican American restaurant. Nothing too fancy, just generous portions of good food and quick friendly service. The chiles rellenos were exceptional.

Vegetarian options: Except for explicitly meat dishes like carne asada, everything can be ordered without meat or choice between chicken, steak and shrimp.

An Atlanta staple since its day’s as El Azteca; great food, great drinks, great service. Ask for Juan, he’s the best server there :)

Kid-friendliness: Large open patio, people often bring their children.

Spaghetti and meatballs let's go

Great place for great food. Fried Avocados are a must try. Salsa good. Only criticism is on my chimichanga, the beef inside was not seasoned and the dish became dry bc all the cheese sauce was lapped up. Recommend getting the red sauce on top as well as cheese dip.

Delicious and different take on a burrito, I liked how it was covered in sauce and eaten with a fork and knife. Served with fresh made chips and yummy salsa. Great value, has cheap options. Will come back!
