El Centenario Mexican Grill

Nos gusta mucho! This is our favorite Mexican restaurant ever. Their molcajete is top notch and large enough for three hungry teenagers to split. You will not be disappointed. The birria pizza is also pretty great. We suspect that other food is equally good, but as with most restaurants, some things are better than others. Try the molcajete your first visit and go from there. Regarding drinks, the large mugs of Dos Equis Amber are a reasonable price, and the margarita specials during happy hour will rock your world. One is enough and two will make you worthless for the night. Lastly, we always sit in the section staffed by a guy named Junior. He is a really kind and hard working dude. Oh, and if you like hot salsa, ask Junior for some of the hot green or red salsa that they have in the back. The flavor is great.

Great service and food awesome.

This is real good Mexican food! We were in from the east side of Michigan and this place hit all the right notes for us. Good food, service, atmosphere and price. We know where you are now!

Very disappointed! We go here often and do carry-outs. I got my order of double steak fajitas for my family and when I got home there were NO tortillas. Lunch was ruined by El Centenario! It will be a long time before I return!

Mediocre at a premium

Quick & great service. Staff is friendly and checked on us often for drink refill. Food was wonderful.

Worst food my husband and I have had in a long time. Brought the wrong order and would not fix it. The meat was so salty it was inedible. Service was terrible and the waiter was beyond rude. My husband asked if we could please speak to a manager and the waiter just walked away. Couldn’t get a refill on water for almost an hour. Avoid at all costs.

Most inauthentic experience in the city. Birria was simple beef broth, salsa was Pace in a cup. Both the birria and chicken tacos meat was rubbery. Second time rolling the dice but never again.

First time here in the area. I decided to try El Centenario Mexican Grill. The interior is very clean and the staff is friendly. I ordered a guacamole dip and a Michelada with corona. The Michelada is very tasty better than other mexican restaurants in the area. The guacamole dip is okay. I ordered the quesabirria tacos. The tacos came with rice and beans. The quesa birria tacos are amazing. My waitress Gimena did not disappoint when she recommended ordering them. You can make 2 tacos out of 1. The meat is tender. The consome taste 9/10. Waaay better than other places in the area. Definitely come try this place out. Theres plenty of parking as well.

We had great food here. Service was super friendly and food was out very soon after we ordered. Recommend the queso. Very large portion.

It is one of the best authentic Mexican restaurants in Grand Rapids.

Food was amazing portions, great service, awesome atmosphere!!!
