What a treat! And whoa to that green salsa! I loved it! Great quesadilla de pollo and the serving is enough for two. A special treat is their open air facilities that is big enough for an event! Overall all was great. Definitely a place to come and enjoy a mellow ambiance, a welcoming group of attentive servers and yummy Mexican Food. #TheBrokerWithAHeartVegetarian options: Burritos - large!

I have been going to Los metates since I was a kid with my family and as an adult I loved going as well however as of recently the last 4 times I've gone, their burritos have gotten extremely salty and I can't even eat it anymore. I don't know if it's the meat or the guacamole but all I taste when I eat my burrito is salt. Definitely willing to give it a try again but I hope they tone it down on the salt.

Came in on Saturday around lunch time, there was no one there but it looked like before we came in there had been a few people there as there was tables with plates on them. Ordered a super burrito , 2 asada tacos , 1 Cabeza taco,a torta cubana, a jarrito and a canned coke for a total of $48.00 . -Al pastor Burrito was a 9/10 it was flavorful and really good. -asada tacos were 9/10 again the asada was full of flavor and tortillas were good. -torta cubana was 7/10 wasn't a traditional torta cubana as it didn't have the milanesa im use to inside of it. Flavors were ok not bad still edible. - Cabeza taco I would rate a 5/10 for the reason being that it had an after taste if you have eaten cabeza before you know what I'm talking about , It doesn't always have that flavor but for some reason at some restaurants it does. Would I go back ? Yes, but I would definitely try the other items on their menu !

Right in DT south city, this is a low key spot where the plates are super tasty!! With La Tapatia around the corner, if you don't feel like waiting in that line then bring that azz over here!! lol Been going here for years with my fam and it is such a solid spot you really can't leave unsatisfied. 10/10 is what I said but don't take my word for it, try it for yourself!!

I asked for a breakfast burrito. I asked them to chop up the chorizo & they made it with big slices which I didn't like so

You just want to say to the owner, Why bother? So mediocre and sad. No pride in what they prepare.

Just flew in from AZ and decided to stop here based off of the Google reviews. I'm a gluten free vegetarian and I'm allergic to wheat so I am gluten free too. The cheese enchiladas were great, and the veggie taco was massive. My girlfriend got the shrimp taco and a ceviche tostada and loved hers. Portions are huge, food is delicious and the atmosphere is great. I would say this restaurant is on par some of the best Mexican restaurants we love back in AZ. I would highly recommend, especially for any vegetarians or people who are gluten free.Vegetarian options: Great selection to accommodate vegetarian optionsDietary restrictions: Almost everything can be made with corn tortillas for people who are gluten free

I'm thankful Google recommended this place! I was looking for food after we landed because we were starving and Los Metates is super close to the airport. I got a ceviche tostada and a shrimp taco and it was so much food I was really surprised at the portions! He got the cheese enchiladas and a vegetarian taco and again the sizes were huge and the food is all delicious!It's a small unassuming place but super clean and the service was warm and welcoming.
