Party of four on a Friday night - walked right in and was able to sit in a booth. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We ordered the big guacamole and a man comes around with a cart and makes it tableside. Everything looked fresh - it was under seasoned. When the cheese dip came out my mom and I both thought it may be the best we've ever had. Ever. And we had it before at this location and it was normal good. But it was fight over the leftovers good this time. The kids meal with shrimp for my son came out fast and he loved it. The enchiladas with tomatillo sauce was yummy. My husband had a very unique beef dish with cactus in the middle that was recommended by our waiter and liked it. The sweet tea was good. The women's bathroom was clean and stocked. I recommend. read more

I stopped someplace else first that rudely closed early and wouldn't let me in. I found this place and they welcomed me in like a friend! I only got takeout but they never mentioned closing time, gave me the full menu, drinks, galore! I was treated like royalty and enjoyed the food and service immensely! Thank you so much for the late night dinner! read more

This is one of my favorite places to eat. I went with a coworker to birthday dinner and paid with tip $78 and when I got my credit card statement it was $90?!?! Went to the restaurant and they had no excuse nor did I get my money back. Along with allllll that no apology!!! I will never go there again!!! If you to eat here pay cash!!!!! read more

We went here for my birthday dinner and it was delicious!! The inside is pretty dark, I think it's some psychological thing to make you order more food, not sure. Our server was very kind and accurate. The food was delicious, no complaints. read more

Nice establishment. It's probably my 2nd or 3rd visit here. It's tucked away in an industrial area of North Charlotte. Staff is friendly and moves fast. Food is good quality. There are no issues with anything that I've ever ordered. Certainly, I will return again. read more

Great food I love the arroz con Pollo. David has been our waiter for the past couple of times and he is phenomenal. My mom always gets the Don Juan. The margaritas are a bit sweet, but David always fixes it right for us. A great family spot! read more

It is a very nice restaurant and the service is good. The food on the other hand was subpar at best. The carne asada in the burrito was tasty, but the rest of it wasn't. The red salsa and tomatillo sauce tasted like ketchup. I expected better, because I thought that it would be authentic Mexican food. The only reason they got 2 stars is because of the service and carne asada I definitely won't be going back. read more

Food and atmosphere was nice. The small table side guac was good and the birria tacos were full of flavor. Margarita was good and so was the sangria. read more

My Favorite lunch spot. Consistently great service. Great lunch menu. I havent found any items that i dont like, I typically get the California burrito, cárnicas, fajitas, or fajita salad depending on the mood. Great for bringing lots of people, a lot of space and fantastic staff. Cant go wrong by going to Azteca. Enjoy! read more

This place is unmatched. We recently moved to the area and wanted to find a Mexican restaurant, a go-to if you will. So we tried a few different spots and if I could give this place more than 5 stars I so would. We've now eaten here a handful of times and it's always impressed. The food is great, portions are large, the service is FANTASTIC. They're fast but not pushy or annoying. They're accurate. The environment is really fun! sometimes they have music playing, sometimes they have the games, but it's always fun. There's never a very long wait cause they turn their tables quickly without you feeling like you're being rushed. Honestly, there's no reason to go anywhere else. This is it. read more

The food is relly good and the service is great .love the way they treat us like we was home is a excellent restaurant.

Food was delicious. Service was amazing, didn't have to wait very long for anything. Amazing staff who take of you.

Overpriced food. Tacos are dry and you're not allowed to order ala carte. i was forced to get 4 of the same tacos for $20. I don't even eat 4 tacos on a normal day. read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant is a fantastic. There are four locations and this is the third location that I have been to and all have been fantastic experiences. This particular location is next to several hotels and when I got here on a Wednesday evening just a bit short of eight o'clock, I was a bit surprised that the parking lot was pretty busy. I guess that I shouldn't have been, each location that I have been to has always been busy. First they brought me chips and salsa. Definitely a good way to start my meal. For my entree, I went with the pulpo ala diabla, a spicy octopus dish. I have only found this particular item at Azteca Mexican Restaurant and it is an amazing dish. The octopus works so well with the spicy sauce. Service was decent and the overall experience was definitely an extremely positive one. I would definitely recommend here and I give it five stars. read more

Azteca is one of my favorite places to grab Mexican food. I like their taco bowl and I LOVE the Burrito Azteca. The shrimp, chicken and cheese sauce is so so good. It's always a fun place to dine in at, as there is a professional mariachi band onsite that will visit various tables and serenade in song. The food is very reasonably priced, and the staff is always friendly. This is a restaurant I return to again and again. read more

The food had no taste and overpriced. The carne asada tacos were so nasty and $20 for 4 tacos. First time and last time. They need to fire the cooks. This place is an epic fail. read more

Nice place with a lot of atmosphere. Big portions and friendly staff. Nice find for a late meal.

I came here to celebrate one of my friends work accomplishments and we had a great time! The margaritas were so good and the food was even better! Our food came out so fresh and hot which I really appreciated. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and ultimately helped us decided what to pick. The place is so colorful on the inside and very family oriented but also really cute for a date night. read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Texano's burrito and arroz con pollo - Mexican Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

We ordered a burrito listed as $14.95 on the menu. My kids ordered one with chicken and the other with steak. When it came time to pay, I ended up being charged $21.90 and $20.90 for the burritos. When I asked why, they told me it was because the chicken and steak were grilled. Seriously, $7.00 extra just because it was grilled? The menu did not clearly state this, and it feels very misleading. Very disappointing experience. please feel feee to email cmarcela1109@yahoo.com read more

Went here 4 years ago and woke up thinking about the chips and queso. They are so good.

Good food. Large portions. Terrific atmosphere. Good service. Isaac was helpful and accommodating.

Yeah not the best experience here. For my money, it's Mi Pueblo that earns my loyalty. They just execute at such a consistent level. Service was great but that was pretty much it. Chicken Nachos - chicken was overcooked Chicken Carnitas - salad was wilted and rice was on the hard side. Carnitas de Res - same sauce as the other dish. I believe it's called "mild sauce". Mild on flavor is my verdict. The food was an afterthought. But the service was top notch. We sat in a booth near the bar and was taken care of by the bartender. He was always checking in and making sure we were in a good spot. The place is in need of a makeover. Or at the very least some better lighting. I'd go back for drinks... read more

Amazing authentic Mexican dishes at reasonable prices. The service here is always fast and waiters are super friendly. The restaurant has table booth and bar seating. The enchiladas and queso are amazing. The bartenders also make very good drinks and don't skimp on the alcohol read more

‍ This place used to have amazing food, my family had been coming here for 19 years. Idk what happened, recipes changed or changes within cooks. Anyways we decided to order takeout from them tonight and I was hoping it was going to be great. Nope. My order was wrong and it didn't taste great like I was hoping. I had to take out the avocado they added because it was black and gross looking and added my own on their. We had ordered Super Nachos with chicken but we received it with ground beef AND chicken. It wasn't good, I tried forcing myself to eat it but couldn't finish half. Also ordered Chicken fajitas with corn tortillas, they were 'meh' mom forced herself to eat it. This place is beautiful on the inside but the food needs to be like it used to. Literally have been coming here since I was 12 years old, I have great family memories about this place. read more

Delicious food and while the prices have gone up a bit, its still very worth it. The service is always great, karaoke night on Fridays and Mariachi taking requests on Sundays. Great place to bring the family! read more

So enjoyed our dinner tonight ...from your friendly Canadian neighbours. Highly recommend this awesome restaurant!

This restaurant has a nice ambiance, good customer service and complimentary chips and salsa for the table. I got a veggie burrito which had refried beans and rice in it with a small amount of tomatoes, guac and shredded cheese on top. I would not recommend this burrito. read more

Azteca is a great option if you're looking for Mexican food. The portions and options to choose from are plentiful! On Sundays and some other days, they even have a Mariachi band playing music. It's a really nice atmosphere and restaurant. The inside is very spacious with tons of tables. So it can accommodate small or large parties...just call ahead of time. I've eaten here with large parties of 12 or more on many occasions with no issue. The staff is super helpful and helps to keep everything on track from the food orders to the checks at the end of the visit. It is located in the rear of a large shopping center, so I have never had an issue with parking. I would definitely recommend trying this place! read more

Haven't been here in a while but visited last night and I am not planning to return any time soon - the prices have gone up - our server made an error with our order, I also had a to go order and she never apologized for the error - why are the prices the same for two dishes when one has more items than the other? read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Menu - Mexican Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Firstly, the food was fantastic. Fresh and tasty. It was some the best tasting Mexican food have had in quite sometime. I simply had two enchiladas (ground beef, cheese) with rice and beans. The rice and beans came mixed together, which was different, but very good! The chips and salsa were excellent as well, however they don't bring you a whole lot of salsa and after the second helping they will charge you for it. Just fyi. I also got a margarita. It too, was delicious, but more importantly: it was strong!! The only thing that I cannot rave about was the service. And it's not necessarily that we got bad service, it was more that we got disinterested service. For example, my friend asked for more soda. It never came. When the waitress came to check on us my friend repeated her request, the waitress was happy to fetch it, but there was no acknowledgement/apology that my friend had asked for it 10 minutes prior. Also, the young lady that brought the chips and salsa when I arrived had no interest in smiling, eye contact, or salutations of any sort. Even though I said hello when she approached and thank you as she put the food down. A language barrier perhaps? Maybe. But there are many non verbal cues one can use to convey feelings of appreciation and welcome. Yeah, that didn't happen. She plopped it down and turned and walked away. I found her behavior a bit off putting. Not a deal breaker though because the food was really good. read more

The service here is top notch. From the moment we sat til the moment we left, we were constantly attended to. We were immediately given chips and salsa within a minute of sitting. We ordered guacamole which was absolutely delicious! In fact, this was best guacamole I have ever had. As for the main entree, I had a California burrito with chicken. I actually did not care for it. The queso on top might have been a bit much. I usually put queso on a lot of my burritos, I think I just might have not liked the flavor of this one. One entree would not deter me from going back again though. I just need to try something else. Towards the end of your meal they give you a free "sampler" size dessert, which was a bonus. They were chips (I think they had cinnamon on them) with honey, whipped cream, strawberry and chocolate syrup. It was so good. To take it the extra mile we ordered a fried ice cream, which was huge! We were able to share it among three of us, but I would say this dessert would more appropriately be for two. I would return if I am ever in the area again! read more
