I loved this place. It is out of the way but well worth the search. It was not crowded for lunch. We were looking for a good and quick and excellent sit-down place for lunch. This turned out to be the perfect place. I got the Avocado Salad, and it was the best. I was looking for some light food but good and filling. The avocados were the best. I like how they were not all chopped up but larger slices of the Avacado. read more

Service is lacking. I ordered mini Chile verde burrito. I asked for a side of jalapeños and the worker who could do nothing according to her said its an extra charge. I said I would pay. (1.75 + tax 1.96 almost 2.00$) For a 11.50$ burrito (plus tax of course) She handed me the mini size container of 7 sliced jalapeños and I laughed and asked for another one for the charge and she said she could not do that. I asked to speak to someone who could. She said no one was available and to write my number down and name. Really !! When I spoke to her in Spanish because she had used Spanish to speak to the kitchen she refused to respond in Spanish. Again REALLY! I won't be returning EVER and I had often ordered food since I work nearby, but I will not be frequenting the "restaurant" again. Bad customer service and food is meh. read more

I ordered food to pick up. I got there before it was ready. I watched them put the meal in the microwave for several minutes. I was very disappointed if I wanted microwaved food, I could do that at home. read more

Avoid this place. We live nearby and only go when we had no time due to bad past experiences, food is meh. Today was next level terrible. Ordered a chicken burrito with SC and guac. Got neither. Did get a big old bay leaf, and a PIECE OF PLASTIC in there though. Health and safety needs to shut this place down. read more

La Azteca was once one of the best Mexican restaurants in Petaluma. Unfortunately they're not as good a they once were. The service is great. The chips and salsa served were delicious. The super burritos? They tasted like unfiltered creek water. Idon't like putting itv this way, but that was literally what they tasted like. The carne asada had chunks of grissle. I'm hoping La Azteca can improve and become the delicious restaurant it used to be. read more

La Azteca has been a favorite of mine for a while! The portions are HUGE and the staff is always kind and helpful. My go-to is either the nachos or a wet burrito with salsa roja. Those two never disappoint. This time around, we placed a pickup order for 2 burritos and one order of nachos. They were ready with 15 minutes of placing the order. The inside of the restaurant was pretty empty and is very clean. I love the decorations on the walls as well. I don't know if we just caught them on a meh day this time around but the food wasn't as flavorful as it has been in the past. Specifically, the salsas. I love the salsas and remember them being spicier but they might have toned it down a bit. The burrito was huge (as usual) and was stuffed with rice, beans, guac, sour cream, lettuce, pico, and cheese. For some reason, the sour cream appeared to be underneath the burrito which is not something they usually do. The guac was only in one half of the burrito which also isn't usually the case. The rice and beans were good. I just wish there was more cheese and sauce and better spread of the ingredients! This was the first time I got anything under perfect from this place so Im hoping it was just a one time thing. I will update this review next time I visit! read more

Appallingly RUDE service! Chili verde was completely ruined by to much black pepper! Two of us ordered it. It was so over powering that we could not eat it.So we brought it to the waitress attention and she had the owner come to our table who refused to provide an alternative or change our order without charging us.I was shocked when he asked us"what do you want me to do,Through it away"? Speechless!!! read more

This place is located in a small shopping center, if you don't pay attention you'll miss it.

Come check it out and you won't be disappointed . read more

Service - we were greeted and seated right away. Our server was pleasant and on top of it. Ambiance - the restaurant was cozy and on the quiet side. It was clean along with the restrooms. Food - I had the tortilla soup. It came with a lot of vegetables so I thought it was the vegetable soup. The cheese and the tortilla strips were on the bottom of the bowl. I would have preferred the strips on top so they would still have a little crisp to them. It was very cheesy which was good. The broth was quite flavorful. The chips and salsa were also decent. The chips weren't on the greasy side and the salsa was savory as well. read more

Best nachos ever! Even when we're "burrito hungry," we always have to get at least one order of nachos with them. A pleasant traditional Mexican atmosphere. read more

Eh, it was okay~ My friend, originally from Petaluma, recommended this spot to me when I visited her hometown, so I thought that it would be good to check out after a day of exploring. The weather was a bit chilly, so I got some heartwarming dishes: *albondiga soup ($8.75): veggie soup with meatballs. The meatballs were grainy in texture, which threw me in a loop and the soup was a little more watery than I would've liked. *tamale/enchilada plate ($10.95): came with rice and beans. It was pretty good, just nothing more to write about here. *chips & salsa: came for free with the place- again, tasty, but nothing spectacular. Can't complain about this place; it was comforting after being out and about for the entire day, but I'm not necessarily clamoring to eat a meal from here again. read more

I live around the corner so I have been going to the azteca since it opened. Tonight I ordered three dinners and desserts to be delivered. I got enough chips and salsa for two, my iced tea tasted like water and my $6 flan was like three bites. I have given five stars in the past but it looks to me like La Azteca is cheaping out read more

Initially went to get sushi but ended up here. Thankfully the service here was significantly better. The margaritas are super good and has just the right amount of alcohol. They only had 1 New York steak and I ended up with it, good fat to meat ratio and cooked just as asked. The cheese enchiladas that came with it were STUFFED full of cheese. The hot sauce they offer I believe is house made and spicy. Absolutely loved it and would go back just to eat some more. Guacamole came in a little flour tortilla bowl that tasted amazing. Staff is super friendly and quick. Definitely will be stopping by again in the future. read more

Great food. Friendly service. I enjoyed the enchiladas. Sitting at the front by windows in the afternoon can be a little on the warm side.

Misleading Pricing. I've eaten here regularly for 20 years. Today I went to pick up my burrito and they rung it up as $18! Simple burrito, nothing extravagant: al pastor, no beans, no sour cream, no sauce on top, wrapped in foil. I protested, noting that there is no "$18" burrito on their menu. I opened their menu, showed it to them, and this burrito should cost something like $13.95. Their menu online is outdated, and shows it costing $12.25. The woman at the register tells me that she asked me if I want a "super" burrito when I called, and I said yes, and that this costs an extra $3 or something. I point out to her that there is no "super burrito" on either their printed menu or their online menu, there is no option to upcharge a regular burrito to a "super," and ask to speak with a manager. The manager tells me "well, the cost of everything has gone up, beans rice, everything." I say "yes, I understand all of that, but that doesn't mean you get to make up prices, casually mention the word "super" when someone is placing a phone order, and then upcharge a few bucks. Your prices have to reflect what's on your menu, you have to adjust your menu prices if you want to charge more." He literally laughed at me. So sad to say, but I don't think I'll be going back. The food is good. The service is OK. But I won't abide false advertising, doing hidden price gimmicks, charging customers differently than what's listed on the menu, and then laughing at a customer for pointing it out. Good luck Azteca, it's been a good run. ~ Oh, also, when the new "Honest Pricing Law" takes effect on July 1st, California SB 478, this sort of shady nonsense is no longer going to fly. read more

I ordered the shrimp fajitas through Doordash and they arrived warm and were very tasty. I asked for corn tortillas and they got it right. I especially enjoy their salsa which came in addition the the rice, beans, guacamole, pico de Gallo and onions and peppers. Delish! read more

The enchilada Verde I got was a little spicier than I was planning for but other than that, I was served, seated and attended to. The ambiance was nice but the price point felt a little high compared to what I'm used to. The serving size was great! read more

I tried the enchiladas, and they were a true revelation. The tortillas were filled with a delectable combination of seasoned meat, cheese, and topped with a rich, flavorful sauce. Each bite was a burst of cheesy goodness, complemented by the tangy sauce that tied all the flavors together. The restaurant feels have more authentic flavors than other restaurants around town and quality ingredients truly shine through. Servers are very friendly. The place on the other hand was okay. It is giving me a traditional mexico vibe type of restaurant, vintage! If you're looking to embark on a flavor fiesta, I highly recommend exploring the wonders of Mexican cuisine. read more

Tonight I went to La Azteca I have been going there since high school. I went to go and pick up my order and was a little thrown off that it was $28 and some change. I got home and noticed there was no sour cream and guacamole on the plate so I called and ask for the guacamole and sour cream. And that the portion of carne asada is like 1/2 what it usually is. The person on the phone said bring back the food and we will give you a new plate. I get back to restaurant to get the new plate I open the box to make sure the plate looked right. The went back home to find out the rice was cold and the beans even colder. The cheese in the enchilada wasn't even melted just shredded cheese wrapped in a lukewarm warm tortilla. I call them back to ask for my money back and not even once in all these interactions was I told sorry about the mistake. This was one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Petaluma since I was 13 years old and now I will never go back again. read more

We have dined in and called ahead for pick up. Each visit we've received wonderful service and delicious food. Both of us have made a point to order something different every time we visit because it's easy to go with what you'd typically order. Try something new, you won't be disappointed. 5 read more

Great food and fast service. La Azteca quesadilla with chorizo is the best. Salsa is probably the best in town.

I came to this red restaurant invited by a regular and faithful customer, I had never been here before but she raves about so I decided to give it a try. The location is kind of hidden. Modest nothing fancy, very casual. We walked in and we seated ourselves and the waitress was prompt to bring the chips and salsa. The chips were really good (I'm big on Chips) the salsa had really good flavor, better then the last place I visited. I ordered the my usual, Shredded Chicken Burrito with everything, I like the way they served the Burrito with red salsa and shredded lettuce and sour cream on top and my friend got the green Chile one, I tasted both and the green Chile was way better then the Red as it had so much more flavor but the red is delicious as well. We also bought a Azteca Quesadilla which was huge. We definitely got our money's worth. Overall if you are not looking for anything fancy and just a casual inexpensive dinner with out putting a dent in your wallet but getting good flavored Mexican food this is the place to come. read more

I really liked the food. I have ordered the cheese enchilada, tostadas,and burritos. This place is extremely convenient for me to grab my lunch b4 I hit the road and go to work until today... I got my regular burrito, and as I was eating it,I not only bite in to one,but two tooth size black rocks. I called the owner,Maria Gutierrez, and told her what I had experienced, and just wanted to know how this could happen. To my surprise, she knew!! She said the rocks are in the beans!! She wanted to know if I wanted to exchange it...lol.. um, no, thanks. I can't believe the owner is aware of this problem, and it has resolved this issue. Needless to say, now I will need to find another place,since I don't enjoy eating rocks read more

OUT OUT OUT. If there is any rating lower than 5 starts, I would. We ordered two steak burritos and for desert a flan. Here are our findings 1. Steak pieces were old, not favorable, tasted like wood and it had so many bones/cartilage we had to throw the meat away. There were solid pieces of bones that could have "killed" us. What a joke 2. The flan, $4.50, came in a container that is the same container when you order a side order of ketchup at Burger King. It was 3" tall by 2" wide. All of that is $4.50. Are you freaking kidding me? If you look at the pictures in their website, you can see how small is the flan. It tasted like it was made a week ago. 3. We have asked for Pico De Gallo inside the burrito. Came none. We asked for cheese, came none. We paid dearly for all of that. Who the F...is working in the kitchen? Humans?!!!!!!!!! I don't think so, and I think Cows work there to make us angry ordering steak. Not Recommended - and will not buy/order from there again. Here is the picture of the Flan we got. read more

Been going here for over 20 years. After all these years, I still love the chili verde burrito with green sauce.

This place is not that great. The people and service are okay but the food is terrible. I have come here everyday for 2 weeks and have tried something new everytime.
