“Great food! Service is kinda hit or miss and they are not the most friendly and outgoing people that I have been around. The decor is typical Mexican restaurant the food is your typical Mexican restaurant food nothing I have had has really stood out as amazing but nothing I have ever had taste bad. Usually a little crowed when I have been. Still it's a nice place to go with friends and enjoy a meal.“
“They were short staffed, and we had to use the kiosk. If you're going to force a customer to ring the wrong order in you should drop prices because at that point we're an employee. It's not really fair to force people to ring in their own orders That's difficult for old people as I had to do that for my mom.“
“This is the best authentic Hispanic food. I have never had bad service or bad food. The birria tacos are the best along with the salsa and chips. I have had different things off their menu and have enjoyed all of it. The restaurant is a cute little place to eat with incredible decor. Love this place and it is well worth the money spend here.“
“Usually pretty good quality and service but their issue resolution is terrible when it comes to carry out. They completely messed up our food. I called to complain to a manager and after a long phone call they got my info and promised to mail a coupon for a free entree. This coupon was never received.Edit: we went again today to give them a second shot. Our order was completely wrong once again. We drove back and the manager made the situation right and resolved the previous issue as well. It was a hassle but I the quality and taste of their food makes up for it.“
“My wife loves this place, and she's a heat wimp. Food is inventive and fun, chips are good, drinks are good. It's a bit pricey, but what isn't anymore? Their spicy sauces are pretty flavorful as well, which I feel isn't something commonly said with spicy foods. I am a fan of heat, and they definitely have a few taco sauces that will open your pores.“
“My family and I like the food here. They give good size portions. We've eaten in the restaurant several times and ordered takeout several times Like most places, eating in is a better experience but when you do order takeout they do a good job separating the hot and cold items.“
“Wow. As a Mexican... I approved and certify this restaurant! Totally amazing. GREAT food. Great Service. Quality was really good. I had Fajitas with Steak, Chicken and Shrimp and they were amazing. Portions are very generous and prices are totally acceptable. I also had Horchata Water and the flavor was really good. I totally recommend having lunch or dinner in this place. Will come back for sure.“
“Took my two toddlers today for the first time. Owner was incredibly kind and helpful as it was hard to figure out the menu while wrangling two kiddos! He walked me through it, gave good suggestions, and the food was delicious! Brought home leftovers for my husband and he loved it too! We will definitely be back. Tried the taco bowl, soft crunch tacos, and a dunker. All delicious!“
“Stopped in here after a flight back from Chicago. The food was great. Staff was on top of keeping our drinks full. Menu had plenty to choose from and had pictures. The pictures are always a plus when choosing cultural dining. Overall we had a great time the prices were fair for the great food and service we received.“
“This restaurant has a nice clean atmosphere and decor, the food is particularly great but overall I enjoyed the customer service and the staff the most. If I lived in the local area, this would be my go-to restaurant for Mexican food, hands down.“
“We were out early afternoon watching March Madness, and this was the place to go. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, even so engaged as to find out we were in from Columbus, OH, with family. Wouldn't you know it? One of the guys there, the manager, I believe, has family in Columbus. Small world, but it's a great place. You won't be disappointed. I'll definitely be going back!“
“This place is a hidden gem!! You wouldn’t know about it unless you’re in the know. You can’t see it from the street and the only thing next to it is a peddlers mall and a mattress store. But if you’re looking for a local hole in the wall kind of place this is it! The salsa is so unique as it’s thicker and saucier than most I’ve had. So tasty. Then we had the guacamole and it was delicious! Their chips are crisp and light. We’ve been here twice now and everything we’ve had was great. The owner recommended I try the campechanos tacos which is steak and chorizo together-something I would probably never choose for myself but is definitely a favorite now! I didn’t take a picture of my tacos because I ate them too fast. Needless to say, this will be one of our regular go-to restaurants from now on.“
“Had a big family event here. They took care of us!Also, their waiter Juan did an excellent job managing our large group and getting us our food and beverages despite the hectic party we brought with us.Gustavo's is lucky to have him!He also made fresh lemon/limeade for my wife and I which was a great hangover cure ? "The Juan hangover special".“
“I am a frequent flyer of Mexico City 2, Love the burritos definitely the best bang for the buck they're just as big as El nopal except only $7. I tried they're nachos and they were delicious.Parking: Nice size paved parking lot.Wheelchair accessibility: There's sidewalk is flush with the parking lot so no wheelchair ramps required.“
“We were leary about eating here as we are about anything attached to a gas station. Boy were we wrong! It was amazing! Food was authentic and very tasteful. Staff was very friendly and full of smiles. Very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend. We will definitely stop again during our travels.“
“I was working out if town and have a habit of wanting to try different Authentic Mexican food when I'm out if town!! Man,Taco city did not disappoint??? I showed up 10minutes before close. My man met me at the door as I was leaving thinking they were closed. He said No No,come in. Lol,he offered the whole menu,but I came for the lingua tacos and the Carne Asada Burrito!! No way I could finish it all(being greedy) but the portion and quality were on point!! If you have a taco craving and you're anywhere near!! You won't be disappointed!!“
“Really great Mexican restaurant, the food and staff are top notch. We eat here about once a week as a family, we have always had a great experience. The yolandas are especially good as well as the carne asada tacos and big giant burritos (kiddo’s favorite). The prices are 2022 reasonable, and you really get a lot for your money. You wont leave with buyers remorse by any means. The local choices within driving range are plentiful for restaurants, Los Aztecas is always one of our favorites.“
“First time I've been there as it was recommended by a friend. The menu had some good choices and fair prices. I got the Monterey burrito and black beans. That thing was massive ?. It was really good and packed a good portion of food. Black beans were good as were the chips and queso.The server was really sweet but I don't think she introduced herself ?. She seemed a bit apprehensive with customer service not really engaging and a bit rushed. I did see a gentleman with tattoos engaging with other patrons and was pleased. Anyway, I plan on coming back.“
“I love everything about Señor Iguanas. The food is absolutely delicious, priced right, and the portion sizes are generous. Here, there is something for everyone: if you are picky, no worries they got you covered ? ?. If you are in the mood for some authentic Mexican street tacos, guys they got you. Your choice of meat ?, topped with cilantro and red onion will have you thinking you are in Mexico. My personal favorite is barbaqua tacos. So now you know next time you want to get your Mexican onn and are craving tacos. Look no further. Siñor Iguanas got you. Now what are you waiting for go get you some.“
“It was in Sellersburg, In. Very roomy and had an area to fit our large group. We had several wait people taking our orders, bringing our food and watching over us to keep our drink full. It was an excellent party. We will be sure to add this place to our “go to” list for parties.Parking: Parking in front and side. There was plenty of spots.“
“I am a regular at El Sombrero. The food is great and the portion sizes are very generous. Everyone who works at the restaurant is kind and they make you feel welcome. This is a great place for a casual family dinner and they make a great margarita.“
“Abuela and pop in the kitchen turning out the real deal Mexican dishes. El pastor is worth driving across the bridge for. Nothing fancy here but the owner is charming, other servers are super friendly. It’s worth driving past 10 El Nopals to eat at LaPasadita.“
