Glenn Schillinger★★★★

This El Azteca location is very clean and roomy and a nice atmosphere to enjoy conversation. The service was incredible. Food was brought unbelievingly quick! Great if you dont have much time for lunch. The chips are heavier than we prefer and not very flavorful. I got the lunch size beef chimichanga and rice. The portion was definitely lunch size, but at the right price and the rice was good. Lots (too much) of sour cream. Nothing really outstanding about the taste.

I've eaten here many times and it's one of my favorite restaurants. Some favorites of mine are the Chili Verde, the Philly Cheesesteak Burrito and the Mixed Fajitas. I just ate there again tonight and I realized that I had never reviewed it, so I decided to act like a tourist going in with fresh eyes. I decided to try the Lemon-Lime chicken which had been recommended to me by multiple people but didn't really sound like something I would enjoy. I was pleasantly surprised by the incredibly rich and deep flavor. The lemon and lime flavors were perfectly balanced with rich queso. It was salty wit

Already thinking about going again. Very good dishes with an extraordinary fast and kind service. When you arrive they will welcome you with some homemade chips with a dip. They don’t have veggie options in the menu but if you ask they will prepare most of the dishes that they offer to be vegetarian. For sure I’ll go back

Stopped in at the same time they were getting Friday night slammed so I had about a 15 - 20 minute "take a number." Not too bad since I just killed the time talking with other diners waiting also. Parking was still plentiful. Service started up as soon as I was seated in my booth with the chips and salsa. Menu is filled with options. My meal service, food quality, and portion size were all excellent. Value was definitely there. Worth a re-visit when in town in the future.
