Viejo Vallarta Cocina & Barra

Do not order DoorDash unless you want the wrong order. They aren’t capable of getting orders correct.

We stopped here to eat supper on our way back home while out on a long road trip. Food was good and service was fast & friendly!!

I'm not sure how this place is getting higher reviews....unless the Memphis area just doesn't know what good Mexican food is.
Walk in, ok typical Mexican restaurant atmosphere. Service was fast and friendly.
The food.....VERY underwhelming. My wife and I both thought it tasted like everything came out of a can or jar. Hardly any flavor at all in either of our dishes. Even the salsa that's served with the shops didn't have much flavor at all except tomato. The grilled chicken inside the chimichanga ...nope, no seasoning or flavor at all. Not even the rice and beans. Literally everything tasted like it came out of a can with zero flavor. This was my first time here and will definitely be my last.

Our waiter Alex is awesome..Margaritas are Good but please use fresh fruit/ frozen... The syrup is not very good.Queso Fundido wasnt like other restaurants, It was just white cheese sauce with chorizo/ its supposed to be ooey gooey cheese. Fajitas were very good. Ordered Fried ice cream and it wasn't fried. Had no crunchies on outside of ice cream . Was more of a sundae. Please use more regular cheese on dishes , seems everything has cheese sauce. Not the same

Absolutely awful experience. Waited 20 minutes in an empty restaurant for a food order that they got wrong 3 times. The chips looked stepped on, the salsa tasted like yesterday's batch, the drink refills were nonexistent. I walked out. I will never come back. This establishment is a joke.

I stood waiting before greeted. So, I thought maybe the host was in the back but, it was 2 guys sitting and looking at me at the door. Finally, I guess when they felt like getting up one of them came and asked me if I was picking up. I ordered the lunch and didn't receive half of what I ordered. When I tried to explain it, the guy still didn't comprehend. I kmow this is a restaurant of a different ethnicitiy but, for business purposes you must have someone that is fluent in speaking and listening comprehension. I was very professional in my explanation and even broke it all the way down to almost ABC, 123 format, lol. Thankfully, it was just lunch, and not to expensive but, I left saying, you're not understanding what I'm saying and it's ok, you don't understand and I know why you don't understand. Have a blessed day. I knew I should have went to Guadalajara. I will now.

It was ok. I didn't care for the red salsa for the chips or the service.

The picture was a lunch taco salad with shrimp. “Or was it soup?” I’ve never seen a Taco salad look like this. I sent it back asked for no beans and the next one was much better. I wish I had taken a picture of the replacement. Big difference!

The food, service, and atmosphere were good but nothing amazing. The guacamole and salsa was very good. The churro & fried ice cream was good. The chicken/steak fajitas and everything else was fine, just nothing special.

Price increase at the register for whatever reason the cashier gave me was unacceptable. Never going back.

2024 - still excellent and very much worth a visit!

Good Mexican place in a nice location, pleasant staff and food as advertised. If you are looking for Americanized Mexican food this a perfect spot! Cheese dip, sweet tea, even Margaritas - everything is delicious here.

The food was good. I didn't feel the service was as good. I didn't get a refill on my drink. The check was brought over even before I finished eating. I felt ignored.

Easily my favorite mexican food anywhere NEAR Olive Branch. Fantastic staff. Amazing reliability and quality for the price. Run don't walk.

Kid-friendliness: Totally kid-friendly. A couple quarter machines in the lobby, too, including a claw machine.
