“I can’t say enough about this place! I love the atmosphere! Within 30 seconds of sitting down, hot chips and chilled spicy salsa were brought to me. The service I recieved from Alberto was spectacular and my order was hot, delicious and cheesy!!! What more can you ask from a great Mexican restaurant?! Love!!!“
“Please bring back the Fiesta Burrito and the Chipotle Ranch Chicken Burrito!! These were my favorite, healthy and affordable choices on the menu! I probably won’t be going as much. Vegetarian options: Please bring back the delicious, nutritious and affordable Fiesta Burrito asap!“
“Absolutely delighted to have discovered this local gem! My family and I had such a wonderful dining experience. The food was incredibly flavorful, and we enjoyed every bite. I highly recommend giving it a try, as it truly exceeded our expectations. Looking forward to returning soon!“
“Come on in and take a seat at the high top counter facing the street! I recommend the corner seat so you can get in some good people-watching outside and inside! Order the 2-egg breakfast with Texas toast and potatoes! You’ll want to splash some black pepper and hot sauce on your morning feast! Wash it down with a fresh-brewed cup of coffee and enjoy!! The staff are attentive and helpful and take the time to answer any questions you may have about their menu. I’m coming back to taste their chilaquiles !! ! Buen provecho!“
“Very impressive! Incredibly friendly staff, refreshing to be treated like they really enjoy having you as a guest. Service was great and the food was delicious. We had the fajitas and a combo dish, along with margaritas. A great dining experience where the atmosphere is cool and friendly, the staff is responsive, and the food and drinks are authentic Mexican fare. So close to home! We will be back… a lot!“
“Good food with an "up north" type feel. Some Michigan and local specialties. Service is fast, friendly and attentive for the most part. Prices seem a tad bit on the high side, but seeing that everyone is full by the time they leave, the portions are good. We've had a couple of things that maybe weren't quite up to snuff, such as the Maurice Salad, but for the most part everything is good.“

“Best spot in Redford, for sure. We were kindly greeted by the owner and he carefully explained his menu. The burritos were excellent! I recommend getting some of his peppers on the side. You can tell it used to be an old dive bar, but it's really clean in there and it has a cool alien/space theme. It's nice to see an owner that loves his business and is passionate about the food that he makes.“
“The food is amazing, from the quesadillas to the tacos and everything in between. I heartily recommend the fish or cajun shrimp tacos with the vegetable remoulade instead of salsa. No cilatro in them! They have an extensive vollection of taco and hot sauces. Everything is made fresh with quality ingredients. This place is a gem!“
“4.5 stars! The enchiladas were great and the salsa was spicy enough.I believe the pozole is not the traditional one or it was from another region less popular, but I like the traditional flavor better.The place looks like taken straight out from Mexico and I loved the margaritas with tajin.“
“I'm mad at myself for waiting so long to try them out. The service was excellent, friendly staff. I love how they showed me the contents before handing to me. I appreciate Vegan sour cream and cheese choice (dairy isn't my friend). The chips were perfect, held up to all the toppings and weren't overly salty. Since it's a food truck, the ambiance is wherever you go lol. I enjoyed my food and will definitely be back.“
“Delicious. I highly recommend the nachos. I love it because they are family friendly and quick with the food. It's family owned its not a chain and they make awesome margaritas!!Kid-friendliness: My kids liked it and they can be picky“
“This is the best Mexican food I have found in MI! I am from Texas and love Mexican food! This is the closest I have found that is authentic. The pricing is fairly decent as well and the staff are nice! 10 out of 10 recommend! It is family friendly.“
“Nice little place for a quick meet and greet, a first date or friends getting together.The food was great (recommend the tacos),the drinks are nice (have the blue moon, with the cucumber lemonade follower to cleanse your pallet). The decor is wonderful and the staff was top notch.“
“Im not from this area, was here for work and a work friend suggested it. It's a really small place. Very nice people. The pierogi were good. I felt the potato pancakes were not really for me, but they were ok. That's all I tried. My friend likes the burrito. It was pretty big.“

“This is my go to place for Mexican food in Birmingham. Next to Market Northend, smaller and also accessible when you have no reservations elsewhere. The servers are incredible, the drinks they come up with are always great - especially if you love Mezcal.I typically order the “Big Mac” Slider special, ceviche, or the Fajita Bowl. It’s like a chipotle bowl, but higher quality.The desserts are super delicious, you have to get them both.“

“Had lunch here with a friend who has never been to Pancho Villa before. We were seated promptly and greeted by our server who did a phenomenal job taking care of us. Ordered the shredded Beef Flauta Dinner and my friend ordered the Chicken Chimichanga Dinner. Had so much food that we had to get a carry out. Food was delicious, service was great and will definitely go back to try the Flaming Fajitas.“
“Have lived in Oak Park for a year and finally tried the place everyone talks about! Delicious, great portions, homemade, lucky to have this in the neighborhood! Their refried beans are vegetarian which is perfect and hard to find. Will be back!“
“Food was good. The hot hot sauce is ?. I ordered chicken and received beef. Server fixed it right away. The drinks I thought tasted watery. Being early lunch It could have been tidy up a little from the night before. They should also supply clean aprons for the servers. Price was on point and the rice with lime and cilantro,beans and guacamole were all very good.“
“I have driven by this place 1000 times without giving it a second thought until I decided to try it. I had their Carne Asada and it was absolutely delicious. It is now my new favorite place. Lessons learned don’t judge the book by the cover and go try it. The staff was extremely nice and welcoming.“
“Hidden gem in bham. We frequent a few very authentic Mexican places in Oakland county and wow this place really impressed my wife and I. Add it to the list of awesome authentic tacos and more.Stopped in for a quick bite during lunchtime and everything was on point. The quesadillas were some of the best we have ever had, the cheese was grilled on a griddle and they were packed full of meat. We tried the steak and steak/sausage. Added on a couple of amazing al pastor tacos.Overall the marinades for the meat really made this place stand out. Excellent tomatillo salsa along with pico. And the prices are very reasonable. Everything was super fresh. The restaurant was very clean.Certainly will be back when in the area. Give it a shot. The service was really quick too.“
“This place is incredible. Best taco joint I've ever been to. And that includes Arizona where I live and ??. Corrina was wonderful. The Queso Birria is a must try. Carnitas and Asada were spot on. I loved it!! Thank you for an amazing experience.“
“This is a must stop spot, great atmosphere, Staff friendly and professional, Food is fast and delicious as well as the prices you can’t beat the price of a good Taco, Nacho or Cuban Sandwich and if that’s not what your in the mood for you could always try one of there signature pizzas…The Spicey Mexican is one of my all time favorites…“
“Staff was very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The space clean and organized, and the service was efficient. I ate there and ordered food to go. I had the birria tacos there, a 2 quesadillas for my coworkers and some wings. Wings weren't my favorite but i'll go back and try more from the menu.“
“À friend brought me here Wednesday and I'm back on Friday. I'm picky about my Mexican, meaning I like Mexican aka Mexican town Mexican, taquerias, eating in actual Mexico.The pastor torta is fantastic, good chips and salsa,The meat is actually marinated and flavorful, not some dried out texmex meat with spices sprinkled on.“
“I have no pictures because we ate it all! We originally stopped to get my 3 year old something to eat but thought to sample it first lol it was amazing! Please do yourself a favor and come to them for FRESH and seasoned to perfection food. I loved how light the food was after you eat it doesn't leave you sleepy.“
“Came in for the first time for lunch today. The space is great, lots of TVs and bar space (it'll be a great place to watch football this fall). The food was fantastic, huge portions and reasonable prices. Service was great too, got seated quick and it can't of taken more than 10 mins for the food to come out. I'll definitely be back!“

“We used Regina’s food truck for our wedding and it was perfect! The booking process was easy and fast. They were very easy to communicate with. The food was delicious and had plenty of options for everyone including gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan. Highly recommend for your next event!“
“Always love the food at Miguels. They are probably one of, if not 'the', best Mexican restaurants in my area. Kids love it, and I do too. And staff is always friendly and accomodating!Just called to place a carry out order at 8:40pm, and was told they were closed. Please adjust your restaurant hours to when you stop seating, or taking orders. Not when everyone is planning on leaving. Thanks.“
“Came by here after checking out an event at the bookstore next door. I ordered the birria tacos where were good and well priced! My friends all tried different items on the menu including the regular tacos, quesadillas, and quesabirria. The food is definitely heavier so not a regular spot for me, but great late night spot with lots of seating and a large menu. Service was also great and the waitress was very friendly!“
“Best Mexican food in Metro Detroit, without a doubt. I live half an hour away now, much closer to Mexican Town, yet I still make the drive to La Botana because it's the best. Been coming here for 10 years and it's very close to my heart ?“
“My favorite Mexican spot ,Great Food and Margarita ???? these are the Mexican chicken soft tacos first time trying these at this restaurant I’ve been going for about 10 years and more really good customer service best margaritas They have virgin or regular love the Food & “
“3/13/24 22:15 estGot a fiesta pack. Service was fast and courteous. Everything was perfect, including the packaging of my meal.All tacos and burritos are uniform, centered, and neatly placed. ALL, the napkins are to one side and sauce arranged beautifully above the napkins.Every person there, at this time, deserves a raise.To ownership/management:Seriously keeps these MFKZ!! AND PAY EM WELL! Or scramble to find better.“

“My roommate picked up some food on his way home from work today and randomly got a burrito for my wife and I, too. We have never had this place before and have heard only stories from him about it.The wrap tasted amazing and it was gigantic! Thanks to him, I'm sure the wife and I will end up eating here again in the near future.“
“I can't say enough good things about this establishment. From the food to the drinks and service everything was absolutely outstanding. When they saw my wife was pregnant they went above and beyond for us to get us seated as possible and the servers work as a team so somebody is always there to check on you. The drinks were tasty and the Branzino was one of the best I ever had! We had the nachos (beware enough to feed a family lol) and elote to start and they hit the spot. Overall amazing experience and we will definitely be back!Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of Handicap parking and ramps for those that need it“
“This was the best Mexican restaurant I've ever been too! I ordered the Verde Enchiladas and they were amazing. The chicken inside was very fresh. The rice was fresh and fluffy. I also ordered a Margarita...yum! The service was outstanding! Our waiter was very attentive. Go here, you will be glad you did!“
“Love the atmosphere here! It's so colorful!Hot chips and salsa were great. Salsa was full of flavor and not too spicy.The fajitas for two was delicious. Portion was huge and could have fed three but we get leftovers :)Shrimp cocktail was delicious as well.Street tacos were so good.Fast and very friendly service. Restaurant was very clean. We will definitely be back.“
“Great American style Mexican food. They are very generous with the sides you know what I mean when you order fajitas and restaurants give you enough lettuce, tomatoes and guacamole for one wrap? Yeah so azteca gives enough for 3-4 wraps. Love this place.“
“Cilantro heads up: if you are allergic to cilantro or have the gene that makes it taste like soap, your options are limited. That said, they did work with me and made sure I enjoyed a cilantro free experience.Their chips are SO GOOD. I didn't even need the salsa.The beef was well seasoned.Prices are reasonable.Everyone was so nice!“
“Update: Everything got corrected!... Food is delicious and customer service is great. My favorite is the steak birria. So good with the fresh lime to squeeze on, brings out the acidity. Also the steak burrito is good, very flavorful!! Will be back.. Thank you!!“
“Stopped and placed a carry out and they had a restaurant full of guests (2 were parties in the banquet area). Went to the store and came back and food was ready and the staff were exceptional and my dinty moore and the lemon rice soup were excellent! Anyone complaining about prices hasn’t been grocery shopping in a while and if you don’t want to pay for it and leave a tip then cook it yourself and see how much it will cost to get everything you need for everyone or it will probably cost same or even more for the initial ingredients.Vegetarian options: Veggie pitas and omeletsDietary restrictions: Senior menu dinner specials. Custom orders excepted (within reason).Parking: Park by the door and handicap parking availableKid-friendliness: Kid menu and family friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Yea“
“I love the atmosphere, the food is amazing, but if you're in a hurry, you'll need to check out another place. The service is mind-numbingly slow. They're super nice and friendly, but wow. I'm glad that I didn't have anywhere that I needed to be after.“
“Tucked into a little strip just off Woodward with office buildings all around, this suburban deli is probably the antithesis of a NYC deli: quiet, relaxing, more like a coffee house with food instead. They do a heck of a takeaway business as I found out while I ate in.An avuncular gentleman greeted me well before I made it to the counter. Great sense of humor, too. He joked with the other staff when not waiting on customers.I ordered a full Chicken Greek grilled wrap. Everything is available as full or half. Full wraps are $13, halves are $10. The other sandwiches are similarly priced.Only had to wait a couple minutes for my sandwich to be made.It was mildly flavored, the Greek/Italian dressing & feta really the only flavor involved. No olives, lots of iceberg and some tomato accompanied the chicken, as well. A touch dry, too.Plenty of seating if you want to stay. They even have electrical outlets under benches so you can recharge your electronic leash, I mean, cell phone.There is a restroom but you have to go into the kitchen to get there.Vegetarian options: Salads, soups, quesadillas and sandwiches can all be had without meat.Parking: 22 spaces in front.Kid-friendliness: Unless your kids are feral beasts, they'll be fine here.Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessed, no curb, double doors and an abundance of room to navigate. Plenty of tables to sidle the wheelchair up to, as well.“
“Tried this for the first time yesterday 2/21/24. Ordered the enchiladas dinner and taco salad for my wife.Taco salad was good and the enchiladas were good however I’m not big on dark chicken meat. This is a first as I’ve always had white meat from other locations.It looks as if a whole chicken was deboned although I had no white meat.Other than that all was pretty good.The beans and rice were good that came with the enchiladas dinner.“
“We've already been back to Las Cazuelas several times, and definitely will again. The service is fast and friendly. The food is cooked fresh, and the flavors are fantastico. You can customize what you want and how you want. They have a cabinet full of Jarritos sodas in a variety of flavors (try the Tamarind flavor if you never have before). Muchas Gracias!“
“Understands celiac, vegetarian choices, even if you are not vegetarian, you MUST try the Seema tacoVegetarian options: Mushroom and Seema tacos are wonderfulDietary restrictions: Understands celiac, my wife hasn't been sick eating these amazing tacos“
