The food was ok but whats not ok is closing earlier than posted. The night staff stops answering the phones, to avoid orders and clean up so they can go home I have been asked to take my food to go because they are closing early. Last night no answer at 7, I drive there to order and they are there in back cleaning with front lights off. Closed early again and again. Good help hard to find. Owners should work closing so staff stays til close ir change hrs

The food was delicious! I got a quesadilla, and it was nothing like any quesadilla I’ve had before, but it was so good!

Recently stopped by Los Machetes Authentic Mexican Restaurant, and let me tell you the birria tacos with consommé were chef’s kiss. Deep, rich, authentic flavor that hits like home cooking straight from the heart of Mexico. You can tell the kitchen knows what they’re doing there.
Now, the shrimp tostadas? Not bad, but definitely room for improvement. The flavor was fresh, but I missed those traditional touches… no lettuce, sour cream, or cotija, just chopped onion, tomato, cilantro, and a sprinkle of Tajín. It looked the part but lacked that layered bite.
Parking’s a bit of a challenge, but once you step inside, it’s cozy and authentically modest nothing flashy, just honest food. Overall, a solid experience with standout tacos that deserve their own spotlight.

The food was good, definitely more authentic than a Chipotle. Music was really loud, which made it hard to speak to each other and the waitress.

The Chorizo Tacos were fabulous, authentic Mexican style. I love their green chili sauce. Writing this just made me hungry for more.

Everything was great! Even the slightly overpriced Mexican Soda Pop in a glass bottle! 🤣 Sike naw... It was cool! Everything was fresh and delicious. I'm definitely going back to get more authentic Mexican food.

Best “authentic “ Mexican food in the area. I can tell you this food is amazing! The service was amazing and food was even better. As close to my Abuela’s cooking as I can find.

I order takeout tacos from here all the time. At least a few times a week I order food from here, and it is always great. The guacamole, salsa, and tacos Mexican style are awesome. I’ve tried several of the tacos and you cannot go wrong. My favorite is probably carne asada. Great food!
