El Azteca Mexican Restaurant is a long-standing favorite spot offering authentic Mexican flavors and a welcoming atmosphere. Known for their chili relleno, gorditas, flautas, and burritos, the restaurant also features tacos with green salsa that are spicy and flavorful, and on Tuesdays they are just a dollar each—a great deal. Vegetarian options like pepper tacos are available for those who prefer meatless meals. The décor is colorful and inviting, with painted chairs and masks that add a touch of Southern American charm. The staff is friendly, always greeting guests with a genuine smile, and the restaurant maintains a very clean environment. Parking is easy, making it convenient for customers. The beans are seasoned to perfection, and the corn tortillas taste fresh out of Mexico. Free tortilla chips and salsa are provided as a bonus. The breakfast menu includes hearty options like chorizo with eggs and huevos a la Mexicana served on large square plates, and the coffee, especially cafe de la olla, is excellent. Recent reviews highlight the delicious Tortas with chicken or steak, featuring generous avocado and wholesome bites, as well as desserts like fried plantain dipped in condensed milk and the stunning Nieve Frita (Fried Ice-cream) topped with whipped cream, chopped peanuts, and strawberry syrup. Overall, El Azteca remains a top choice for those seeking authentic Mexican food, friendly service, and a clean, welcoming space.
