    Plenty of parking. It has seating inside. The speak very little English. The options are the usual. The food was good. Nothing unique from other Mexican restaurants.

    A great hole in the wall joint. Cashier was super friendly and even gave me a free taco to try. Highly recommend ordering a Gordita.

    Visted Los Amigos Bar & Grill for the first time ever on Saturday night for a friend's birthday…read morecelebration. When I turned the corner into the street next to the restaurant I easily found street parking, just keep an eye on the street signs so you park during appropriate times. We were seated outside which was perfect weather and it was great the tables could be pushed together to accommodate as many people as would arrive (our group fit in 4 tables pushed together). To start, the bean dip and salsa! That bean dip is so delicious and spicy! If you told me they were sold out and all I could eat is chips and bean dip I would have been a happy girl and just sat there eating the bean dip! Yummm! For the main course I went with the Steak Tostada Salad and it did not disappoint! The tostada was fluffy and crunchy, and the inside was filled to the brim and had nice thick pieces of steak on top! I did not feel an ounce of guilt as I gobbled down the whole thing and I even splashed some of that bean dip onto the top for good measure! In looking around at everyone's plates everyone's food looked amazing with very very generous portions. The waiters were very attentive to our group coming around frequently keeping our waters full and refilling cocktails for anyone who had ordered one. I definitely recommend Los Amigos Bar & Grill for a very delicious and authentic experience!

    I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, this is some of the worst Mexican food I have ever tasted…read morein my life! I ordered the Shrimp a la Scampi, light garlic, with rice & beans to go. When i got home, I realized the shrimp was sitting in a greasy pool of garlic-laden oil, which leaked all over everything. Thank God they use a plastic bag; otherwise, that garlic mess would have been all over my car. The beans were so salty & weird tasting (the worst ever), I think the chef must have been in the Mortons family. The rice was okay, but had no flavor at all, so my doggies will love it in their food tomorrow. The chips, which are now in the bin, were completely tasteless. They don't include tortillas(?), so I paid for an order of them, but they had so much grease on them from the pool of oil that leaked, I had to throw them out. The only thing I rescued from this expensive meal was the shrimp. I pulled them from the greasy garlic pool and am planning to rinse them off tomorrow and put lemon on them. Hopefully they will be edible. The young gentleman who got my order ready was a sweetheart, so I will say one nice thing. After the overwhelming garlic smell, the mess I had to clean up because of all of that leaked oil and my disgust with the waste of money, I ended up having watermelon at home for dinner.

    We've been driving by Mex Cocina Cafe for over a year, and this place is ALWAYS packed. We were…read morecraving breakfast on a rainy day and finally decided it was time to see what all the hype was about -- and now we completely understand why it's always so busy! We waited about 45 minutes for a table, which honestly wasn't a problem at all. They're located in a plaza with parking, and there's also plenty of street parking nearby. First, let's talk about the Café de Olla. We ordered two, and WOW. It's their signature coffee, brewed with cinnamon, raw Mexican brown sugar, and spices. We normally drink our coffee black, but this was easily one of the best coffees I've ever had. Seriously, do not skip the coffee here! For breakfast, we ordered two dishes and shared everything. We had the Breakfast Skillet, loaded with country potatoes, eggs, bell peppers, mozzarella, fresh avocado, and ranchero sauce. We also ordered the Chilaquiles à la Bandera -- crispy tortilla chips with half tossed in their green salsa and the other half in red salsa, topped with mozzarella, Mexican cream, Cotija cheese, and eggs. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. And because we needed something sweet, we added the Crunchy French Toast Sticks, drizzled with caramel and Lechera. SO GOOD and the perfect sweet addition to our breakfast. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves! The service deserves its own mention. Our server, Liliana, was an absolute doll! She was so sweet, attentive, and genuinely helpful. She helped us decide what to order based on her own favorites and recommendations, and everything she suggested was spot on. Our Café de Olla came out within probably a minute of ordering, and once we placed our food order, I don't think we waited more than five minutes. Considering how packed the restaurant was, we were seriously impressed. Liliana definitely made our first visit even better! Everything was perfect -- the food, the coffee, and especially the service. Definitely recommend Mex Cocina Cafe for breakfast or brunch. We will 100% be back. In fact, we already can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

    Arrived Saturday just before 10am. I expected a line , but no. During our stay, I did see some…read morepeople wait maybe 10-15 mins. I didn't look inside , but likely the outside area is similar as the inside as to regards capacity. tortas very good. Moist compared to other restaurants. Chilaquiles . Super good. Only knock - the tortilla chips were already saggy by the time I got the plate. (The chilaquiles came about 10mins after my wife's tortas. ). A few minutes later (After my wife got her plate), a worker (maybe the manager?) asked what were you waiting for ? (I didn't complain) I told him , and about 5 mins later my plate came. I never saw him again. As for the tortilla chips - maybe that is their style . Big portions, I ate about half my plate. Service was above average overall. Not great. Maybe they were short staffed- idk. Didn't bother me. Parking in the lot and street. Don't think there will be a big issue.
