Customer Reviews
Consistent quality food and the quantity is more than filling. The parking is ample, the serving staff is not only efficient but very receptive to guests. 3 times we have eaten there every time the pitcher of frozen mango margaritas has been perfectly blended, more importantly, consistently top notch with a distinguishing amount of tequila and not some water downed mango watered down purée other places provide. The food is expertly prepared and expeditiously delivered to your table piping hot. Bravo to the proprietor. It’s rare that a customers experience spread out over 12 months and 3 visits where each time the food has the exact same quality and the frozen mango margaritas are NEVER watered down like other restaurants. Oh and I also forgot to mention that their complementary in h
We moved here from Texas and couple years ago. We haven't found many restaurants we love and hadn't found any Mexican food we loved, until Old Mexico. My husband got his favorite dish, the carne asada, and had the chilaquiles. Both of our dishes were so, so good! The only thing we both found a little underwhelming was the salsa. We prefer something spicier, but if you like a very mild salsa, it's good. Our server was great, too. He was there when we needed anything, but not overbearing. We'll definitely be back soon!
Huge portions and a great atmosphere! I haven’t had much Mexican food before, but I found the carnitas a bit dry and with a strong porky smell compared to what I’ve tried elsewhere. However, the seafood fajitas were quite good.
The food was really, really good! I will definitely recommend their appetizer queseduilla. It was so tasty that we finished as soon as it arrived. Nachos locos was also really delicious. We also ordered street tacos, fajitas drinks... Everything was really good! You guys must try this place once! Yeah flan was also tasty!
We waited 30mins before they brought out our drink (this was after reminding our waiter about it who definitely forgot) then we wanted another hour before our below average food was finally brought out.
