Food is terrible, ordered the mole and wow worst mole ever, looked like canned dog food! Tortilla soup, no flavor had a two pieces of chicken breast very dry like card board. The waitress was not happy. She never came back to ask if we wanted a refill. She never asked us if we liked the meal. I will not revisit! read more

The food is excellent. The service is absolutely HORRIBLE. Please Anejo management, train your staff! For such a beautiful place, you're ruining it by not properly teaching your staff basic customer service skills. Like smiling, acknowledging guests, checking on guests, anticipating guests needs (like napkins, salt and pepper, drink refills...we had to get up twice to get these things ourselves). And please, do you not have standard policies about staff with long hair? Our server had super long hair that was not pulled back (gross). It was scraggly and hanging all over the place. She kept touching it and tugging at it and every time she bent over our table, her hair would practically brush over our food or drinks. This place needs to get it together! Like I said, the food is delicious but I'm not sure it's worth the frustration of getting the worst service you may ever have. read more

The atmosphere is lovely, the food was okay, and the service was inattentive (at best). The mole enchiladas were rather bland and dry, although the chips were hot and the salsa fairly tasty. When we arrived, we had to wait while the hostess finished a phone call before she acknowledged us, we were brought chips and salsa right away, but it took the server a considerable amount of time to come to our table, and we had to ask for water several times. Our silverware never arrived, even after our entrees finally appeared. My husband had to go and get it after many sad minutes of staring at our food. He also had to ask multiple times for a side order of tortillas. The menu looks great in theory, but in practice the food didn't live up to the promise. The margaritas were nicely garnished but had a weird color. Overall, a disappointing experience. read more

Anejo Cocina Mexicana - House margaritas - Mexican Near Me - Yulee, Florida

The service here is awful. No one picks up the phone, you can't order online, no one responds to the mobile chat and when you make it in 30 minutes before close, the doors are locked and they refuse to take your order. There were multiple guests standing outside tonight trying to order, what a terrible way to run a business. Do better Anejo! read more

Love the set up of this place! The food was delicious and had a lovely presentation. My partner and I spilt the Carnitas Plate and it was perfect! I had an El Chapo which was very tasty and decorated beautifully as well. Our server was polite and very knowledgeable about the menu , which was massive! We will be returning! 10 out 10 would recommend read more

Anejo Cocina Mexicana - a drink in a glass - Mexican Near Me - Yulee, Florida

I was so excited about this restaurant because the menu looked amazing. I was seated right away but wasn't ready to order, so I said I needed a minute. Over 15 minutes went by and no one came to my table. I made eye contact with 3 people who pretended to be busy and no one asked if I had been taken care of. I don't like to leave negative reviews of places but I ended up leaving the restaurant because no one ever even took my order. read more

:(. Don't bother, go somewhere else. Ordered a Hawaiian taco, it's suppose to have a pineapple, hence the name of the taco. No pineapple, server didn't even notice. read more

Anejo Cocina Mexicana - The hot sauce that's watered down and the cheese deep that was cold I ordered a Quesadilla with cheese came out wrong don't waist miney - Mexican Near Me - Yulee, Florida

I really enjoyed hour experience today. We sat outside with plenty of shade and a fan blowing directly on us. Our waitress was sweet and took time to chat with my son each time she came to the table. My favorite thing was the Red Sangria. It's tasted like black berries were ground up and put in the drink and it was plenty strong. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 was the rice had some crispy pieces and my shrimp was just so so. read more

We went for lunch today. The food was hot, arrived promptly, and was of good quality. We had fajitas and a burrito, both sufficiently large enough to bring half of each home with us. Service was prompt and attentive without being overbearing. Would definitely go back. read more

Food is tasty, service was good and the place is clean. A bit overpriced for Mexican food and we saw staff bringing pizza in from next door to have for themselves...just one of those things that makes you go hmmmmmm ???? read more

Great appetizers but mediocre entrees. Very slow service The AC was broken when I went They told me I couldn't get a margarita to go one day because they were just too busy to make them... but if I was sitting In the restaurant you would have to make one right? That rubbed me the wrong way. But I live across the street so unfortunately it's one of the only restaurants that are decent in the area. read more

The one on Riverside has way better customer service, this one it's like the chef don't know how to cook.. the presentation is not even the same. The food don't taste the same no flavor! read more

Great food, friendly fast service and festive ambiance! Great value. Lots of food with every meal! Not your traditional Mexican nice change!

This was our first visit to Anejo Cocina and we will be back! Very friendly service and delicious food! Best queso we have had anywhere!

So we've been waiting to come here, and after going to the Y at Wildlight, made this our lunch stop at about 2 pm. Ordered large house margs (they do not do frozen), and I had the chicken flautas while hubs had the shrimp quesadilla. Both were excellent, as well as the homemade salsa and chips, crispy and warm, just as they should be. So I have no clue what other people complain about, because we experienced nothing but joy. Granted, it's afternoon and not rush hour, and it's not crowded or with a line. But -- seriously -- this new place's food is every bit as good as any other Mex restaurant in the Fern-Yulee area, and we've lived here quite a while, and frequent all of them. Come try it out, is what we say, form your own opinions. We will be back, and look forward to it! read more

Very nice looking restaurant and that's about it. Not sure what was going on the night I visited this establishment, but they were severely understaffed and made no additional accommodations to make up for this. It took about 30 min just to be served water and we were told they ran out of regular cups so we were given styrofoam instead. My food (Mahi) was dry and flavorless. Husband ordered the snapper, which was served PETRIFIED as if it were fried from the inside out . Just a nightmare of a taco Tuesday. Gratefully, we were comped for the snapper, but still had to go home and eat to fill our tummies. Also, there were ppl behind the bar just looking around and wiping surfaces...bar tender probably had to google search our drink recipe, as it too took over 30 minutes to reach our table. read more

We love this place. The food is amazing fresh always Bartender is always on point and works very hard to fulfill all orders quickly.

Best Mexican in the Fernandina Beach area (Wildlight). Service a bit slow (short staffed?) but the wait is worth it.

This place has so much potential but it has gone down hill fast. My biggest beef is that they are constantly short staffed and the poor 16 year old working the door is in over his head. The food is ok. It's good enough to go back if you can get in. And when you do sit, you sit some more. It sucks cause I live right next door and I'd love to go weekly but it's at the point I can't. Too bad. read more

Food.... The hubs recently got a new job in the area and we are scoping out the area. Unfortunately this place will not be going on our list of favorites. The chips were a little tough, the salsa was meh. Cheese dip was great and a massive bowl. We ordered a fresh gauc. Firstly, it had huge chunks of avocado in it. To the point where it was not a dip it was just chunks. Next, it tasted like it had an entire bag of limes and several spoons of salt. It was awful!!! Sent it back to be remade. I'm pretty sure they adding another avocado and sent it back out. It was still pretty bad. Not worth $12! No one in my group was really exceptionally impressed with their order. Nothing was wrong but nothing was great. My steak seemed fairly salty (carne asada tacos). Staff/wait.... I'm not sure if this location is one of the newer locations. From what I gathered (other reviews) a few of these are new and are still working out the kinks. We stopped in Friday around 8:30pm. There were several empty tables available however a 30 minute wait. As we sat waiting, a long time for our order, I noticed there was actually a lot...and I do mean a lot of staff/servers. Probably in the double digits. So much so they were able to gather in multiples of two's and even three's at times to stand and talk. I don't think the heavy wait time (for tables) is lack of servers. Maybe kitchen staff????? Overall the wait time was not good. And the food was not worth the wait. This location needs a lot of work! read more

The specialty margaritas were really good. I loved my coco margarita. The ceviche was really refreshing. Our server was very sweet but I think due to it being new they had a hard time with understanding how to work with food allergies. Our entrees were pretty standard Mexican restaurant fare. The interior is decorated really nicely. read more

The food is delicious and the service is great. The servers were very helpful with recommendations as well. I have no complaints!

Service is amazing and fast! Food is always on point! Love the friendly staff and management! By far the best Mexican restaurant in Nassau county! read more

This was the worst attempt at Mexican food we have ever had. We have lived in California and Colorado, and have eaten Mexican food all over the country. There are plenty of good Mexican restaurants in the Jacksonville area, even chains like El Potro and LA Napolera. After a short wait, we were seated at a booth with dirty bench seats. There were about a dozen loud children running loose around us. The "salsa" was like canned tomato sauce with a squirt of Taco Bell mild sauce. My shredded chicken chimichanga was filled with dry shredded chicken with barely any spices and no other ingredients. The rice was dry and burnt. My wife's burrito was burnt and flavorless. Wildlight is isolated and several miles from any other restaurants, so it was crowded. We will never go back. read more

We picked up food to bring home for dinner and when we got home half of our order was missing. Also, the refried beans tasted like they were from the bottom of a burnt kettle. The flavor was so bad and tasted so burnt both my husband and I couldn't even eat them. we have had multiple experiences like this when eating here. We kept hoping each time that it would be better but it unfortunately has never gotten any better. We will not be going back and I do not recommend anyone eating here. read more

I was early so I studied the menu. I was pleasantly surprised what a value their prices were. I started with Mexican street corn appetizer which was excellent. Queso was a little better than average. I ordered steak fajitas which were flavored perfectly. Portion was huge which again surprised me for the price. Service wasn't the best but I heard that was the case. Will gladly return and see if they are consistent. read more

Was greeted right away by hostess and seated. Waitress quickly took our drink orders and returned ready to take our food order and bringing chips and salsa. Restaurant was clean and well kept, modern decor with indoor and outdoor seating. Food was excellent and great presentation. read more

The food is standard Mexican (which is to say it's amazing) with great fresh made salsa's. The full bar is a very nice touch. A smidge more pricey than I'd like. That's my only qualm. read more

Awesome place for a late night dinner. Ordered a cocktail it was so good not too strong just right. I had birria burritos 10/10 worth every penny. Only thing I had an issue with is I had to ask for napkins 3 times. Other than that I will be back. read more

Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and delicious food served quickly. I highly recommend the goat cheese stuffed, bacon wrapped Jalapeños, served over a small tasty salad. The loaded Avocados are also amazing!! They actually have Keto items and sell Keto Tacos (served on a cheese or egg wrap). I wish more restaurants would cater to low carb customers!! read more

It's been a few months since I last went here after my last horrible experience. I thought enough time had passed for them to right their wrongs and fix things. It's been open almost a year and seems as though it still sucks. Server chose not to tell a table full of ladies ordering margaritas about any of the drink specials. Busser circled the table at least 30 times during the course of an hour even though we had just sat down he was already hovering over us. 6 ladies and a 4 year old at the table. Asked for an extra bowl of salsa for the 4 year old since she tends to double dip. Was told two bowls was enough for a table of 7 and if we wanted an extra, it would be a charge. That would be fine if the principle of it is that the bowls of salsa are unlimited refills for free but to ask for an extra bowl it's a charge. Drinks sat empty for a while. Service was subpar. Didn't know the menu. Didn't know drink specials. Got a little snippy when asked what kind of fries (crinkle or straight) came with the California burrito. Queso came out warm but not hot. Server added gratuity to the table's bill then decided to keep the itemized checks for each individual when returning our copy to sign. All in all, I still have the same outlook on the place. Poorly ran. Poorly staffed. Food is good but not worth the headache. read more

Hours are wrong online and on the door. When you go in they'll treat you like it's your fault you came in when they were closing even though they have no updated information. Hostess will tell you how wrong you're for showing up at 2100 when their own door on the building says they don't close till 2200. Hostess was rude and the manager was the same. read more

First time visiting! Highly not recommended.. waited a very long time for food, came out unflavored and wrong orders. Waitress had attitude when asked for correct food. Now I sit and wait 20 minutes for the check and a manager to approve. Disorganized and it's a ashamed. It is nicely decorated inside and clean. read more

Thank you very much for a wonderful and attentive service, great atmosphere, friendly staff and large delicious portions. I had never have as huge veggies burrito as this one, was able to manage half, taking home the rest. We had reservations coming in, since this place was only showing 3 stars, but it is excellent(!) snd we are so glad we did! Thank you! read more

Placed an order to go when just pulling up to the restaurant. Person taking order said 25 minute wait. Walked in restaurant and they told us they have no record of our order. Then they told us they had a record of it. Then they acted like WE were inconveniencing THEM by still wanting our food. Told us to sit down. No explanation for what happened and when we would get our food. Incompetence with a side of arrogance. At this point, sitting here wondering if food will be worth the hassle and how long we will be waiting. read more

Took almost 10 minutes to be greeted, with a horrible attitude and nasty looks. Sat in our booth for 15 minutes and couldn't tell you the name of our server because I don't think we had one. Left the restaurant after a total of almost 30 minutes without being served drinks, or even a smile. This was our second time at this restaurant. The first was not long after they opened. It was a similar experience but we were able to get service at the bar since we didn't have our children with us at the time. We will not be back. If I could give zero stars I absolutely would. The slim, young blonde with the eyeliner (and lack of customer service skills) would MOST DEFINITELY be better off in a position behind the scenes. Where she couldn't make guests feel like a burden. read more
