    Salsa

    I was in Lexington running an errand and needed to grab something to eat. Stopping at the Guadalajara Grill was more a case of opportunity since it was right off of highway 64. The 3 1/2 star average rating didn't give me high hopes but it turned out to be a good choice. This is your average Mexican restaurant. You will find about the same things on the menu here as other similar locations. There is bar seating in the back. They have margaritas and other adult drinks both frozen and on the rocks. The Blue Margarita was pretty damn good. Now on to the food. The complimentary chips and salsa were very good. Chicken soup and Polo Poblano are both excellent. I left very impressed with the food. This place also takes Apple Pay, along with cards and cash.

    First time coming here and the salsa was the first thing I enjoyed. It had more flavor than the average restaurants around here. We also tried the cheese dip finding it average but still good. I ordered the lunch special number 1; half a chimi changa with shredded chicken, fried, with lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, and rice. Reasonable price since it was only $7.25 ($6.25 at lunch time). The dish was good overall but I ended up not caring for the chicken, it was just too dry in my opinion. My friend ordered the cheese and Grilled chicken nachos which were good. We will end up coming back but I'd say it's average Mexican place. Decent size restaurant so it can accommodate plenty of people and it has a full bar in the back. Staff was very nice as well.

When I was younger, so much younger than today, I traveled internationally for a Fortune 500 company for over 12 years. In those travels I spent over a year in Mexico, because it was a problem place, to do business in any way - to protect inventory (we hired armed guards to patrol behind fenced areas, 24/7), to collect accounts receivable, especially from the Federal and State governments, to operate within the guidelines of the SEC! The good part was to sample food I had no idea existed. I had birria for the first time in 1979 in Guadalajara - stew only, no tacos at the time; carbito; and I had Pozole Verde for the first time, with pork, amazing dish! The version of pozole verde served here is very good, but does not have quite the layers of flavor this dish is famous for, like the ones I've sampled at Taqueria Los Juanes, El Camino Real, and Paisano El Tacos - all in Winston. Still it is a dish worth having a go at! I topped the relatively thin stew with cheese, chopped white onion, chicharrones, and avocado. In addition, I squeezed on lime juice and added hot sauce. All of this added additional flavors as well as a variety of textures. I wish there had been cabbage and cilantro to add as well. I tried the Quesabirria tacos and found them to be very nice - well filled and flavorful. I'm glad I tried the food here, and if in the area I'd stop in, but I would not consider this a destination spot.

A communication error left the restaurant unprepared for the volume of guest that decended upon them all at once. With that in consideration, the staff was very accommodating, organized and efficient. Unfortunately the food was not as good. The chips and salsa taste fresh from the shelf. Open and serve. The rice was nearly flavorless and I suspect that the refried beans come in bags of powdered bean flakes. The ACP chicken had the over dried texture meat that's been precooked or held too long on the hot line. Even worse...the frozen food fish patties with barely dressed tri- colored bag slaw. Acceptable for a busy mom fish taco family dinner. But I expect so much more from every restaurant. The Chipotle Shrimp was the better of the entrees that I tried. The cream sauce was too thick, almost like a country gravy. However the shrimp were nicely cooked and the grilled onions were the best thing on the plate. Overall the experience was at best mediocre and at worst sad.

Said it would take a long time As they were busy. There was definitely not enough help and no owner or manager in site. The kitchen burnt something (smelled like scorched beans) which made entire restaurant smell. This was in a Thursday evening around 6 pm. They definitely need more help. while we were there I heard several customers complaining about "wait time" for food. Suggestions offered: keep someone upfront to greet your customers and get them sat. Make sure you tell your servers to keep a decent attitude. And stop shredding your meat so small in your fajitas. my chicken was nothing but small shreds of rubber chicken.
