It looked like it was closed from the outside due to the lighting and the tint on the window. The inside is nice. Was not expecting the fine dining style tables. It was sit anywhere. The waitress was very attentive and pleasant. I did not have to wait for my drink to be refilled at all. My family was happy they had jarritos. The food was excellent, especially the chicken tacos. The wierd thing was the 7 cameras in such a small space. We speculated about the reasons. Bar fights? Robberies?

My wife and I came here for the first time yesterday. Found the menu online and thought there was a good spread to order from. We were seated right away and the staff was friendly and got drinks and chips with salsa to the table right away. The food we ordered was delicious, easily in the top 3 of Mexican restaurants we've eaten at recently. Prices are just a bit more than I would like, but given the area, not unreasonable. I highly recommend for the quality of the food. We will be back. Pictures are the Jalisco combination plate and the fajitas.

      Best TexMex in the area. I'm a big hot sauce lover and this place makes their own and it is delicious.

For standard Mexican food, El Azteca is a great neighborhood restaurant We go to El Azteca all the time, sometimes with grandchildren. They are very accommodating with the kids. This is not gourmet dining, but they have some great dishes, such as salmon with capers. The combination platters are the best buy for the buck.

Excellent food, service and atmosphere The Pica de gallo is always a winner. We shared the Gambas al Jillo for the appetizer. It was EXCELLENT! For the main course, my wife had the Orange duck and I had the Salmon Parilla. It was OUTSTANDING! We normally get the Tres Leches for dessert, but we wre too stuffed. We'll definitely return!!!!
