Perfect experience from greeting to finish! The salsa was super tasty and the food was fresh, hot, and delicious. One of the best Mexican restaurants (for not being out WEST) that we’ve found in a long while! I got the shrimp tacos and my husband got a bowl with chicken, steak, and shrimp. Both were excellent choices and we left very full & happy! We will surely return when we are back in the area! Yum!

Great lunch service - quick and efficient service. Lots of options and they do offer a lunch menu. Only negative - parking can be an issue, they have a small parking lot.

After a long afternoon of kayaking our two-couple party headed to Real for much-needed refueling. Yes, the parking lot is small and yes, it's not exactly high end. We sat outside with a shanty roof, blue tarps and the butt end of a shipping container. If you're in search of food over elegant ambiance, though, this is your place. Some of the best Mexican food ever. We had Chimichangas, a chicken chipotle quesadilla and a diablo shrimp burrito. Oh, and we started out with queso and a grande guacamole. Wow, just wow food for reveryone.

Tilita restaurant is located in the Centro Historico area of Mazatlan's downtown, Libertad # 416. New restaurant. Service was excellent and food excellent as well. Would highly recommend it to any traveler.

I had the Diablo Shrimp Burrito. Service was fast and friendly. The burrito was stuffed with shrimp and tasted delicious! I agree this rates in the top 10 for Columbia.

It was fine. Large portions. Great salsa and fresh chips. Good service. We were disappointed with the flavors- bland. The chicken loco and steak fajita were fresh and covered in the ubiquitous white cheese sauce that most Mexican restaurants in the American South put on every dish. We came because the pictures looked healthy and cheese-free, but it was not to be. Prices are reasonable, not a ton of parking.

We were traveling and stopped at a nearby hotel. We were looking for a local restaurant rather than a chain and came upon their website. We ordered a pickup order consisting of guacamole, Shrimp tacos and a taco salad with chicken. The portion of guacamole was the largest I have ever gotten from a Mexican restaurant and it was also one of the best. The shrimp tacos and the taco salad were nicely spiced, very fresh and delicious. We will return to this restaurant any time we are in the area. The people were very friendly on the phone and friendlier in person when I went to pick up our order.

Bought a Margarita took a sip and it was the worst margarita I have ever had, they refused to reimburse me. The server wouldn't even take it off the table and was rude.he pointed to a sign saying all alcohol sales are final. We didn't even stay for dinner, going to Oaxaca Mexican Restaurant where the Margaritas are great and the food is better. This was our second time here and will be our last.

My husband and I ate here by default on a Sunday night as most everything was closed. We were warned that it fills up fast and that the parking is difficult so we got there around 5 and the only available tables were outside. The outside dining was under cover but was still hot and lots of flies…not the restaurant’s fault. We both ordered quesadillas…my husband got the bacon and mushroom and I got the corn and zucchini quesadillas. They were wonderful! The chips were warm and the salsa was tasty but not too hot. I had a real margarita which was good…just not enough lime flavor for me. All in all, a Mexican restaurant with a real Mexican atmosphere and not just the typical (American) Mexican fare.

I shared the fajitas for two. We had the chicken fajitas the meat was delicious the portion could have been bigger but the toppings that it came with came with were plenty. One of our family members had the shrimp tacos. From what they told me the food was delicious but also the portion could have been bigger. The parking lot is small so also it is hard to park there especially on the weekends. The complimentary chips were delicious and the homemade salsa that we had in the green bottle and the red one were outstanding. The restaurant also gets crowded and since it is not a very large place it is best to get there early enough to make sure you get seat but they also do have seating outside if you prefer. The decorations in the restaurant will also very nice overall we were very satisfied with this place and definitely will return

you will be lucky to find parking in their gravel lot in front of the place. this place was hopping and we were lucky to get a place as someone pulled out. we were seated immediately. our food was great and reasonably priced. the place is small but appears clean and our waitress was friendly.

This restaurant is hit and miss. The menu offerings are traditional and varied, many items you can't find other places. Tonight we had a party of 6, 3 had great meals, 3 didn't. My taco salad had very little meat or beans, no cheese, and a bagged iceberg lettuce mix for the salad, with a modest dollop of sour cream. It had almost no flavor. I would encourage you to visit when they are slow, not during the dinner rush as the service was obligatory at best. I have been other times when both the service and food was better, but the hype is a little overrated.

We were passing through NW Columbia on our way out of the Lake Murray area and were happy to find Real Mexico. My wife enjoyed her burrito and I loved the grilled chicken with pineapple/avocado salsa. Good lunch specials for the quality. Our daughter enjoyed her quesadilla, and she can be picky at times. Food was ready right when the promised. As many have said, tiny parking lot. They may need a better piece of land to match their popularity. Great family visit!
