Plenty of parking and it even had a security guard booth. The outside and inside were nice. It has two different sections. It has like a sports bar and sit down area big enough for a sever large parties. Service was great. The food was exceptional. Great flavors.

We had such a great experience at Botanas! The food was amazing — we tried the burritos, chimichangas, enchiladas, and vegetarian fajitas. Everything was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. 🌯🌮🥗
Our server Veronica was awesome — super friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Her service was really good! Definitely ask for Veronica when you go, she’s the best!
Highly recommend Botanas for delicious Mexican food and great vibes! 🇲🇽✨

Botana's is authentic, a terrific experience on every visit. From the cheerful greeting to the complimentary chips and salsa, hospitality is served no where better. I usually get #13 Botana's tacos and tonight was no different. Soft flour tortilla's filled with ground beef, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, with added onions, rice and beans, and you've got a delightful meal. Msnagement and wait staff have little to no turnover, suggesting the reason why Botana's is so good is the consistently high quality of service.

Excellent Mexican fare here. All of the staples are available, from cilantro and onion beef tacos to seafood dishes. We enjoyed the enchiladas, tostadas, and the margaritas, which were very strong.
Great, attentive service from the staff, we wanted for nothing, with constant refills of water and chips.
They won't split the cheque, which is annoying for a group, but with the quality of everything else I'm willing to overlook that.

This has been on our list for a while now. Sooo glad we made it, only regret is that it hadn't been sooner. I couldn't decide on what to try so,I got the Botana plate appetizer with an order of rice and beans to make it a meal. The platter came with nachos, firecrackers, chicken chimi and chicken and cheese chimi, cheese quesadilla. Everything was fantastic. The beans were so good. Thete are a few places where the beans stand out, and this is definitely one of them....and the margarita was top notch, flavorful and no heartburn. A big thank you to the staff on duty, great service. A wonderful place, we'll be back.

I've been going to this place for easily 12 years now and Botanas NEVER let's me down. The margaritas are always on point and I swear I could drink there salsa with a straw it's that good. There consistency is so good every time I've been there everything tastes fantastic and just as good as the last time I was there. I could go on and on but I think you get the idea. Probably one of if not my favorite restaurant of all time.
Botanas for the win!!

Went for a birthday celebration. They do not split checks and gratuity is automatically applied at 18%. Party tables can be a bit much, I get it. 2 people arrived later to the party. I could tell the server, Angel was already annoyed. My mother asked about ordering and was told “just wait a minute” without any eye contact. She was able to finally place her order, however he brushed past immediately and I still needed to order. No biggie I waited until I saw him again. I ordered 3 steak taco plate, never received silverware, no chips and salsa, and nothing to accompany tacos (salsa verde y rojo nope). The food was just okay. Tacos were dry, no flavor at all, rice could have cooked a little longer, beans are very thin. La Fuentes by the Zoo is MUCH BETTER. El Tenampa off of 107th st also MUCH BETTER! El Taco Veloz food truck is MUCH BETTER THAN HERE. This place was a one and done for me. Avoid them if you can!
