This El Azteca location is consistent in both service and food. We've dined in no less than 10 times and have ordered takeout quite a few times which was well packaged. We prefer the El Azteca off E. Little Creek road as the food is better in our opinion but this location is more convenient for us. It's never crazy busy, always clean and not too long ago they did some updates.

Service was great, food was hot and delivered quickly and they had college basketball on the TV. We will return. Thank You.

We stumbled on this Mexican restaurant one afternoon when we are headed to Waffle House and decided we were looking for tacos instead. It was a lucky decision The restaurant itself Is a long open room with tables in the center booths around the side. In a second section there's a Long Bar as well as a few booths. Traditional Mexican restaurant decorations including a small Aztec calendar on the wall. The wait staff are friendly and quick. even though they struggle a bit with English it really isn't difficult to communicate when you're talking about burritos and tacos. Get over it. They automatically bring chips With salsa And the Hampton Roads white sauce To the table. It's one of the rare places where the chips are virtually always At least warm and usually hot. We've ordered both chicken and pork dishes. They're shredded pork is good and reminds me strongly of the filling for Christmas tamales. Speaking of which the tamales are very good here. The chicken is two types. One is white meat shredded which is Juicy and flavorful. The better one though is a grilled chicken that's dark meat. For drinks, they have a good amaretto, the peach and lime Margaritas are both acceptable. And we really like the raspberry daiquiris. The price is what you expect from the area sit down Mexican restaurants or perhaps a little bit less. They have good desserts, we liked both the Mexican fried ice cream and the cheesecake with strawberry drizzle. The churros are very good with caramel dipping sauce

Just okay. There are better places for Mexican food in the area. Service was mediocre. Place was deteriorated and they had random stuff piled up every where in the dining area. Not a professional atmosphere.

The food was fresh and very good. Great service and they have happy hour unlike the one in Norfolk with the same name. Clean and well decorated. Everyone should try this location. Excellent!!

It can get packed in here. First time I went it was difficult to understand the waitress so if you are practicing your Spanish, this would be great. Second visit I tried the burria tacos. Not the best I've had but they were pretty good besides the over salting. Sports in tv. Loud music. Ceviche was okay. My brother comes here for the micheladas (claims they taste just like the ones he had in Guatemala). It's basically a Latino Bloody Mary but with beer. Sometimes the waiting staff can be very busy. Overall, I'd visit again.

Went for taco Tuesday. They had a taco sampler that was amazing. The flavors were great and I enjoyed it. Service was amazing and waiter was kind. I would recommend and come back.

Nothing special. Food was just ok. Margarita was a little too much sour mix. Service was ok but never received side order of rice.

Pretty typical Mexican place. I would put this one above average. Large, attractive dining room. Very attentive service. Extensive menu. We had the molechete (sp?). We'll have that again. I would say the desserts were ok, nothing special, but dessert isn't why I choose a Mexican restaurant. Reasonable prices. Positive experience overall.Parking: Parking is no problem at this upscale strip mall.

It was the most Awful Mexican food I think I've had. The beans were old and dry. My food came out wrong to begin with. My food was supposed to come with sour cream and came with a thimble size amount of sour cream on it. Our food was not good and nothing exciting about it at all. The prices are very high $61 for yuck! Just the two of us. The margarita was full of ice and watery. $12. It is Saturday night at the place was completely empty except for us. That always tells you something. This is the third time we've tried the place and it has been bad every time so we are done.
