This spot is great for quick Mexican takeout. The nachos are really good. They take phone orders, and the service is always reliable.

Best Al pastor in the area, service sucks. AT LEAST half the time you call, no one answers, and their hours of operation are more of a rough guideline than a reliable mode of business. I'll be back, it's good food, just unreliable. They have missed my business at least 15 times over the last 4 years purely because they suck at answering the phone read more

So the pictures of this beautiful, bright, fresh looking food is what drew me to this place and when I got my food it looked beautiful just like it was out of a food magazine! A clear description would be beautiful, mouth watering, and/or picturesque! But that's where the amazement stopped. The place was completely empty that day except for the ladies behind the counter. I looked over the menu. Went with pollo(chicken) tacos and then carnitas (pork) quesadillas just in case the tacos weren't enough. Well I went in for my first bite and it was filled with disappointment. Dry, overcooked (maybe old) chicken. The pico de gallo was nice, but it wasn't enough to help hydrate this dry crusty chicken. I stilled had hope for the quesadillas but already being a little leery, I inspected it first and eeeewwww sour cream. Nowhere on the wall menu description did it mention sour cream. So I gave them away to a client of mine. She said they weren't good. She did manage to find some sour cream free pork to let me taste and one word comes to mind... DRY. this was just as bad as the chicken. It actually reminded me of old food at a buffet that nobody eats and so it sits around where the sides become dry, crusty, and overcooked... I wanted to like this place. It is convenient for me when I'm in the area and the prices are pretty low. But for the quality of food I recieved, it was a waste of my money. read more

I've been looking for good, authentic Mexican food in Connecticut for years, and finally fate brought me to Aztec. (Ok, it was actually Yelp. Is that fate?) The only menu is mounted above the counter where you order. I was immediately drawn to the beef tongue tacos; four are served with a few chips, Pico, limes, and salsa verde ($6). They were delicious! The salsa verde is clutch. The amount you get for the price makes everything taste even better. There's two small aisles worth of Mexican snacks (all packaged stuff) plus some items behind a glass window under the counter. Enough seats for about 20. At around 4pm on a weekend, there were three other solo eaters. I look forward to coming back and getting more items on the menu. read more

Great chorizo and al pastor. The carne asada was OK but a generous dollop of salsa made it much better. The horchata was great, the service was friendly. This is a place where $5 can make you stupid happy and change your perspective on the whole day. I love Mexican. read more

Very impressed with the food! The restaurant could use some updating for sure (very run down, ripped seats etc) but the Mexican food is really great and fresh, affordable too. Very minimal groceries for a grocery store (just a few items). This place is great for a quick bite or a grab and go, the carnitas tacos are great and so are the burritos, I think they make their own tortilla chips. Yum! Also love the pico de gallo. Can't wait to come back. Seriously yummy. read more

This is my go to spot usually twice a week for soft homemade tacos and burritos. Good price, good food.

A place so good that I had to write a review the same day, even though I was torn about writing a review (more reviews can lead to more people visiting a place which can lead to tiny gems like this getting discovered by a larger crowd which can lead to me having to wait in lines...and on and on....) Anyway - this place is amazing. Weekday almost 6pm and no one was there except me. Granted, this place is totally unassuming. But it's an absolute hidden gem and I'm so glad I stumbled upon it via Yelp! I went for the carnitas tacos - you get 4 of any taco, and they come with chips and pico de gallo for a grand total of $6. Amazing! Reminded me so much of tacos you'd get from a really great taco truck or taqueria in Queens (basically the east coast golden standard). They're small with double corn tortillas, and dressed simply with the meat of your choice, cilantro, onion, and lime wedges on the side. I utilized the bottles of green sauce and hot sauce that were brought to me to add a little extra flavor, though the tacos really hold their own...I just like my heat! This place is so reasonable, so cheap, and so delicious that I know I will become a regular. I can't wait try all of the other tacos and items on the menu. read more

Aztec Grill & Grocery - carnitas tacos which come with chips and pico de gallo - Mexican Near Me - North Haven, Connecticut

Awesome authentic Mexican food made in a small place by real people. My family and I have been looking for a real good Mexican place and this is the joint! We make it a point to always have Jarritos sodas that you pop open on the wall old style. Yes the place is not In The best condition( ripped seats some times there's food on the floor from previous customers it might even be grungie at times) but that all adds character and on occasion if you show up before they close they have run out of things ( at this moment they have run out of the steak for the night but again it's 1/2 hour before close) but they still will substitute they run out of guacamole they have no problem giving you sliced avocado but the 2 people that run it do a spectacular job at cooking. The price is right! Affordable and a BYOB establishment. Frequently frequented!One thing this place can use........ toothpicks read more

I didn't feel like cooking the other day and was out and about in that area so I decided to try it. THe building is old and run down looking on the outside and the parking lot was empty and appeared to not have been used for a while. There was a sign in the window saying Closed. read more

Best Tacos in the northeast! This place is a gem in north haven!!!! I really like the al pastor tacos! Great salsa as well and the ladies are always so nice! read more

I would give it more stars. Some of the freshest , authentic Mexican food I've had. Huge portion and very reasonably priced takeout.

Well the food is good but don't get there hungry because they take soooo long to serve you. And the young lady is like a robot never smile never say hi... nothing.... read more

Good authentic Mexican food on a budget. I've had the chicken taquitos dorados a handful of times as a quick meal during lunch hour, and have always been satisfied. Generous quantity per price. Recommend the chicken tacos as well. Take-out is your best option as the restaurant isn't very large and decorated - call about 15 minutes in advance. read more

Amazing amazing amazing flavor and authentic food. Places like this remind me of all the little while in the wall places throughout Bisbee AZ and Mexico!!! Love REAL Mexican food like this! read more

These are probably the best tacos I've ever had a I'm a self proclaimed Mexican food aficionada. Such good mini corn tortillas- carne asada and carnitas were so freaking good and came on little trays with limes and fresh pico. The guacamole was also SO good, really fresh. The outside is deceiving but the food is out of control. Highly suggest! read more

The best tacos I've had in CT, with the caveat that I've only stopped by one or two of the trucks on Long Wharf Pier. We moved out here last year from Chicago, and I was searching for legit al pastor for a while. This place does the trick - the steak, chicken, and carne enchilada are all great as well. Fresh chips and pico de gallo come with most of the meals you can get here. There are a handful of booths if you want to eat here - ambiance is non-existent, but that just means you can focus on savoring your meal. read more

The tacos are AMAZING. I've eaten the carnitas tacos many times before and they've been great every time. They also have great guacamole and they will give you a TON of it. The price here is also super low and it cannot be beat. Everyone should check out this hidden gem. read more

Menu is a little light. The Taquitos Dorados are great and the guacamole is some of the best I've ever had. Made fresh.

chorizo taco & al pastor burrito - pretty good, especially since there's nothing else around the area. they do not skimp on the meat (not the best cuts obvi) but maybe so much meat, there are no other flavors there is some seating and a nice bathroom read more

Best tacos around. Authentic and tasty this place is a hole in a wall that only the few are lucky enough to uncover read more

7 dollars for 4 tacos and a can of soda. Awesome. I had the lengua which was great. Quick service. 5 stars read more

Hair in the food. That's always a deal breaker. Some things we ordered tasted good; some things were not so fresh. The lettuce was brown.

This is an unassuming little grocery store that doubles as an authentic Mexican taqueria. There is nothing flashy in the decor in any fashion. The small eat-in area is comprised of just a few tables with repaired old red-leather booths. In other words, you wouldn't eat here for the ambience. But remember: you can't eat atmosphere. The food excellent. My wife and I got takeout and walked away with two burritos (each with an unexpected side of rice and beans) and fresh fried corn tortilla chips and authentic pico de gallo (both large for side orders) for $21.00 in total. One burrito had roasted pork, red sauce, onions, cilantro, and pineapple while the other was a California burrito with steak, guacamole, sour cream, and French fries. Amazing. They also came with sides of green and red sauces, both of which were fresh, flavorful, and super spicy. The woman preparing the food was kind and the place was clean. Can't beat it for the quality of food and the price. We didn't even order off of their delicious taco menu, so we will definitely go back. Nothing uppity or pretentious here. It's basically a takeout counter with a couple of tables, but the food is outstanding. Go give this place some business! read more

Amazing! Freshest food ever. Please support your local small businesses. You can tell how much heart and soul are put into your food. Prices are incredibly reasonable for the portions as well read more

I came here with my mother. It wasn't too busy and it was around noon time. I had a carne asada burrito and it was.... DELICIOUS. also with the burrito comes some rice which was soft melt in your mouth and savory. The best part were the refried beans which were true authentic refried beans. They also have delicious mexican sodas which are a MUST for any meal. read more

Great authentic Mexican food, I enjoyed the tacos al pastor sweet savory pork/ pineapple tacos they are to die for !!!

Came in to try food at 4:30pm and the lady told me they were closed?? Even the customer that just finished eating his food looked at her confused. Don't bother going here. They don't your money obviously. read more

Wonderful appetizers. Guacamole some of the best ever, well worth seeking out. A new favorite for take out.

Very small soft tacos with not a lot of flavor. Wish they would charge a little more and give you larger portions. We had the chorizo and the al pastor and they were both sub par. Tons of mexican restaurants around sadly this was just okay. Needs more flavor and larger portions. read more

Best burritos and tacos around. California king is bomb. Authentic food like yummy. Yaaaa

I love this place , the food is amazing and the price is great, I come here every week and the lady is really nice .

Authentic in every regard. Aztec has a varied menu, uses excellent and fresh ingredients, and portions are ample and well priced. You enter and could be on the other side of the Rio Grande as easily as in Connecticut. The atmosphere is south of the border fun. Food is very good, staff is great......fun to visit. read more
