Ordered the mushroom burrito and I received 2 tons of fries sprinkled with a few mushroom… are you kidding me??? What a waste of time and money.

The food was reasonably priced and full of flavor! The atmosphere was very inviting and friendly! If you are looking for a great experience, definitely stop by... you won't be
We ordered the chilaquiles but it was bland, no spice and not so tasty.

The tacos are amazing! I really enjoyed the shrimp one. The beef tacos were good it was dry and the chicken wasnt dry. The dessert was decent. The meat pie is good. Would recommend it again. I went during happy hours and it was a good price. But the food is amazing! Would recommend it. The service was good and the ambiance was nice.

Loved this place when they were in the Midtown global market. Number one reason where the egg plant fries. Now I have a plate a burnt sticks and the beef skirt steak unrecognizable. Been going downhill for the past three years. I'm done!!!

I love this place! I was born and raised in the southwest and this is my go to place in the cities! Their elote is the best and the Obregon margarita is a must. Staff is top rate and if the weather is nice the patio is glorious!

Best tacos I've had in Minnesota remind me of my trip in Arizona top tier ! Would recommend to friends & family
Spoiler - these are my favorite tacos in the twin cities! I told this to the guests I had in town and it lived up to the hype! These aren't your standard tacos. The meat, tortillas and toppings are so good!! If you're kind of picky, I challenge you to eat the tacos "as is" because Sonora really knows what they're doing! I had a carnitas taco with pickled onions and a steak taco with cabbage. Flavorful is the main adjective I'd use! They surprised us with seemingly bottomless chips and salsa when we ordered it, and the cocktails are great! AND THE RICE, get the rice, you're welcome ha. The atmosphere is very cool! I prefer when it's not too busy, which it wasn't on a Saturday at 1! Service is a little slower but they're very friendly. The prices are... Not ideal haha. BUT, they essentially do half off everything during happy hours (weekdays 2-5), so I highly recommend going then!

i’m not sure how they managed to make a steak and shrimp burrito look delicious and taste like nothing, but it was a truly disappointing experience. all the food was lacking salt (or any seasoning at all really). the eggplant fries were bURNT. my friend ordered a shrimp sandwich and got dry chicken instead.best part was the cilantro aioli…?

Sonora Grill is a great spot for Mexican dishes from tacos, empanadas, to seafood and sandwich's. Located off Lake street in the Longfellow area with a a parking lot for convenience. Ambiance 4/5 Its a warm inviting place with note worthy Mexican-inspired décor. Great seating, cute patio with just enough shade for the summer and dimly lit spot at night. Beware of the bees that might come. lol Service 4/5 Always fun servers who answer your questions with good recommendations based off your taste. Food/ Drinks 5/5 Word on the curb is that their homemade empanadas is a must have! I haven't ordered it yet however I will. Updates to follow. Huge fan of their Elotes with cilantro aioli, cheese & Chipotle salsa over coconut milk rice! Elotes $13 | Quesadilla $16 | Brisket Burrito $19 The Sonora $11 Overall 4/5 One of my favorite spots for sure, I need to go more often. I hear the Happy hour is great too!

This place has really gone downhill since it opened. It’s overpriced American-Latino food. I can’t call it Mexican because nothing was spicy. They used to have a better variety on their menu 5 years ago. Our waiter never even asked if our food tasted good. If you’re looking for something more authentic, go to La Poblanita (Lake and 17th) or Colonial (28th and Nicollet). They’re more laidback, but the food is better priced and you can get food with or without spice.

Love the eggplant fries! Great tacos flavors and margarita varieties.Vegetarian options: Fish and shrimp tacos, not as many protein choices if you avoid animals entirely. Some things available with mushrooms.
