Los Amigos - Love this place! Never a disappointment ! Busy today but no long wait!!! - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

There were 5 of us there for late lunch/early dinner on Monday, 8/28/23. My husband ordered the Hawaiian Fajitas, which is a combination of steak/chicken/shrimp. He SPECIFICALLY said 3 times NO SHRIMP. So meals come and, you guessed it, shrimp. So we called the waiter over and said, we asked for no shrimp. He apologized, took the plate. We expected at least a few minutes for them to cook a new order. But no, it was back in less than 2 minutes. They sat in the kitchen and picked out the shrimp. Except they didn't get it all. My husband didn't eat it. And we didn't take any leftovers home. Also, we had to ask our waiter for chips and salsa. We were never given refills on drinks. Not a good experience all the way around. I put a review on google while we were still at the restaurant with a photo of the shrimp we still found after they tried to get them, but it would have been better for them had they trashed it and just made us a new order. That would have been the decent thing to do. read more

They've slipped in quality since I was there last. We ordered for takeout to share with friends who'd never tried Los Amigos. No one was favorably impressed. It wasn't horrible, just not as good as I remembered. read more

I may not be the pickiest eater but my wife and I love this place! For me, it is more than just the taste but the service and experience. I think this place has some of the best servers ever. They are always so quick, polite, and energetic (for people's birthdays at least). It is always a big plus when they give you free chips and salsa which their salsa is delicious especially when i add some hot sauce to it. I have only had a few of the items on the menu but i have not been disappointed with any of them. They are huge portions and such a reasonable price. My wife and i can eat there for $20 easily (no drinks included) and we always take some of it home with us. I was surprised when i saw some of the negative reviews this place had on here so that is why i ended up writing a review because i really do like this place. As i said in the beginning, i am pretty easy to please taste wise and not picky so i cant tell you if this is pure, real mexican food but for my wife and i - its great! read more

We love this restaurant! The COVID-19 situation has forced us to order takeout and delivery, and we were not disappointed! It literally only took 30 minutes to get my order to the house (granted we are fairly close to the restaurant), but that's impressive! Food was GREAT. Enchiladas were on point, and the gorditas were incredible. read more

Seeking out warm and comforting Mexican food accompanied by beer and margaritas we met friends for linner yesterday afternoon. Other than service being slow(even our drinks seemed to take forever) we had no complaints. Everyone gave a thumbs up on their meal. As noted in other reviews the beef fajita was awesome. Just wish on a dark cold and gloomy day it had been brighter inside. read more

Barely edible food. This is not Mexican food. It is a midwest version of what some people think Mexican food is. The cheese sauce made me gag (and normally I love anything cheese related). The beef taco tasted like floor cleaner- I took just one bite. The guacamole salad was decent so I ate that with some chips and salsa. Service was friendly but left two people in our group of 5 without their meals for a while after everyone else was served...awkward. The most annoying part was this ukulele player and a guy with no regard for social cues comes up to the table and plays, while shoving a brochure in our faces (interrupting our convo) mumbling something about "give money to orphan kids" and then would NOT leave: he was glaring at each of us until finally two people in our group gave them a few dollars. I watched them do this to every table in the restaurant and even when a few business people where obviously looking over some documents and talking intensely, the guy interrupted them and the ukulele player stood right next to them playing loudly. And the guy kept asking them money. Come on. I don't go out to lunch to be harassed for a donation. Won't be going back. read more

Worst Margarita I have had in my whole life. Went Fri night. Yes was happy hour. They were out of margarita glasses and served in tumblers. I really doubt even had any tequila in it. One of our party ordered a Frozen Margarita not even a bit frozen. Sevice was ok. If the drinks were an indication of food quality I would not eat here. We a party of 8 will not be returning, EVER! read more

I have been a fan of Los Amigos for many years. They were my go-to Mexican restaurant. I ordered to-go, supporting one of my favorite local restaurants during the pandemic. I went in to pick it up and the guy behind the counter had his mask barely covering his mouth. His nose was completely out. I politely asked him to cover his nose and he said "it's annoying". I said I know it's annoying but it's helping to protect me. He said"no it's not, it's a scam, it's all about the government". At this point I had already paid and I said "I wish I hadn't paid already because I would leave" and he said "do you want me to void the charge" and I said yes please. He voided the charge, I took my card back and I said "I'm extremely disappointed, I come here all the time but I won't be back." I feel bad leaving a negative review during this pandemic because I know it's hard on a lot of businesses but if you can't even follow the simple rules of wearing a mask when you ask your patrons to do so, that is negligent and dangerous. read more

Los Amigos is a wonderful family restaurant. The building itself is well decorated, clean, and comfortable. However, it is only when one steps behind the veneer of the restaurant that the magic truly happens. And yes, the magic is the food and drink. This establishment has delicious entrees, chips and salsa that come with every meal, and a variety of drinks. The staff, too, is wonderful. All of the times I've been here, whether picking up my food or dining in, I have had a wonderful experience. Kind, courteous, and charming, I believe Los Amigos has some of the best servers in Kalamazoo. If you want to know what to get, I would highly suggest the chicken chimichanga dinner. It is prepared well and the rice it to die for. On top of it all, it only costs ten dollars! If you want good, affordable Mexican food in Kalamazoo, head on over to Los Amigos. You will not be disappointed. read more

This place is not good. The service was slow, the food was cold. We saw our server for drink order and food order and the checks. The food looked and tasted like reheated leftovers. read more

If you're looking for a good, strong margarita the top shelf one here is your go to. A pitcher between two will leave you calling an Uber. Tastes delicious! Drink responsibly though :) read more

This was my 1st time here & we had a very good experience. They were very busy but we didn't have to wait for a table & our server was quick. They have a large menu & you need to make sure you read the entire description so you know what sauces you are getting. Will try them again soon! read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Portage. They start you off with hot chips and fresh salsa. I recommend going around lunchtime for the lunch specials; they are priced well. Not cheap, but priced accordingly. I love this place but took off a star because the food is not always consistent and staff are not always attentive. Sometimes all is amazing, and sometimes the entrees have little meat and our waiter has disappeared. The one thing that is consistent (besides the chips and salsa) is that the food is always served very quickly. I recommend the burrito special, arroz con pollo, and the fajitas amigos! read more

Had a soft beef burrito, I was very disappointed, it was flavorless. And when you come to a Mexican restaurant you want flavor. The beef was not real, or fresh, it tasted like the meat they serve in school cafeterias. The burrito came with just meat and cheese, no other garnishings, like lettuce, tomatoes, beans, etc. Maybe it was the item I ordered but all the food on the menu should be to par not just certain items. The wait wasn't that long, but not all the plates came out at the same time so , people at my table were conflicted to eat there food or wait for everyone to get there food. The chips and salsa were good the people that worked the raved about how they were homemade. Customer service was good. But the food I ordered made me not want to go back again. I'm not against it but, I wouldn't be excited for it. read more

They're and okay restaurant. They have a good variety of Mexican food. The only thing is that they microwave their tortillas for their Mexican style tacos. It takes so much flavor away. And it makes the tacos less enjoyable. I also wish they had aguas frescas since they're a Mexican restaurant. read more

I'll start with the pros: Clean and affordable. That's about it. I was utterly unimpressed by both the food and service Los Amigos. I had lunch with a couple of friends and despite the fact that we were clear one would be late, our wait staff continually and with obviously increasing irritation asked if we wanted to order. The attitude definitely did NOT improve when our party finally arrived. When taking our orders said waiter was impatient with our questions and I swear almost bit my head off when I had the nerve to ask if they made any other than lemon margaritas. The food: substandard. I ordered the Speedy Gonzalez lunch with both rice and beans. Maybe I should have asked for the Take Your Time Gonzalez? If you DON'T want authentic beef tacos (translation: soft corn shell, shredded beef, fresh nonprocessed pre-shredded store bought cheese) come on over to Los Amigos! The chicken enchilada was decent but sadly distracted by the overcooked rice and watery beans. I'm willing to try this place again but . . . meh. read more

I usually have a good meal here, however today I ordered the burrito Mexicano. It is suppose to have shredded pork, but today it was mostly pork fat. When the server asked how my meal was, I showed him all the fat that I had pulled out of the burrito. All he said was sorry. Then when I went up to pay, I was asked the same thing, and I said that I was very disappointed with my meal. And all I got there was a sorry also. Would not recommend eating here. read more

Went today for a small party of about 12 people. The host had called ahead, but they somehow lost our reservation and we had to wait 30 minutes to get our table in the small private room. Someone came in with a large tray of cups full of ice and then spilled about half of them on the floor. Then he served the glasses of ice by putting his index finger inside each glass. Super gross. The ice was never cleaned up and left to melt on the floor so it was wet and slippery for the rest of our stay as we shuffled presents and cake. They were out of shredded cheese, which meant much of the menu wasn't available. (We weren't told until after we started ordering so many had to make a last minute change). We weren't allowed to order drinks until our food order had been put in. Several people ordered margaritas or coronas, but it later turned out that they were also out of limes. Our sodas had no carbonation (guess they were out) and the ice was pretty melted (guess they were out of that too?). The food wasn't bad. It was fast and hot like it usually is. Can't beat their cheese sauce. I probably won't be back. read more

This Los Amigos recently opened at this location. The place has a great decor! It is clean and new as it gets. The food is served FAST. We we here for lunch and were seated immediately. The salsa and chips were right there. The drinks were sold in FROSTY beer mugs and COLD beer. Our order was taken and served in a matter of minutes. The cold stuff was cold and the stuff that was hot was HOT. It was all fresh and good. It was as good as you can get in this area. THe wait staff was always there when you needed them. As others were filing in for lunch they also received the same speedy service. THis is the best fastest service you can get. If you have a lunch hour this is the place to go. read more

Love this new location that they've come to; I love both locations, but I like the set-up better here than the restaurant in Portage. I've been here for both lunch and dinner rushes, and wasn't disappointed at all. Service was great and timely, and the food was generously portioned and delicious. If you go, you MUST get the cheese dip to go with the complimentary tortilla chips they put out. Mmm! So good! read more

Margarita was watered down. Ordered a chicken entree and it was overcooked. Their "special sauce" is their cheese dip. The rice was bland, overcooked, and mushy. I was hoping dessert wouldn't be a disappointment bc you can't go wrong with Mexican dessert. Got the fried ice cream. Not really fried. It's just a scoop of ice cream rolled in corn flakes and then placed in a tortilla shell covered with whipped cream and sprinkles. Sad to say... it was disgusting. The corn flakes were stale and ruined the whole taste bc you couldn't get around it bc it was rolled all around the ice cream. I would never go back again. read more

Ate here several months ago, wasn't great but didn't write a review - thought I'd give them a second chance. Well, the second chance was only marginally better. My first indication that it wasn't going to be great was no wait on a Saturday night - place was less than half full at 7:30 pm. Service was mediocre to poor. Waitress was okay, but you have to pay at the register and we had to wait a LONG time for someone to take our money. The person at the register ahead of us said he'd been standing there for quite awhile and had yet to be acknowledged. The best part of the meal, the free chips. read more

my husband and I went there last Saturday around 7 pm for dinner ( it wasn't busy by any means) to get their steak queso dip and share an entree. The dip is always amazing but when we got our entree the man who brought it out asked if we wanted an extra plate and we said yes. He never came back so we ate off the plate they brought us. That's not even the complaint part. The lady who was serving us brings my husband his water and just puts it on the table as she's walking by. Never once was friendly or asked how our meal was. The food part..... we got the Taco, enchilada and burrito combo and all the meat tastedlike it had been cooked and put through a food processor. It was gritty and overall bad. It was the texture of how I imagine dog or cat food to be. The enchilada and burrito were exactly the same only a slight size difference. It really was disappointing. The steak queso is the only thing that is getting them 3 stars for this visit. read more

The food is decent if it's brought out right the first time. Service is horrible. We never got any refills, my order was wrong and we waited 15 min just for our server to come back and tell him it wasn't right. The rest of my table was done eating before I even had my order corrected. Then we didn't see him for another 20 minutes and couldn't get our bill or a box. Staff always seems annoyed at having to help and barely acknowledges you. When our chips were brought out that staff member didn't even acknowledge us. read more

Love this place, especially the burrito fajita and fajita taco salad! Cheap margaritas and great for lunch and dinner. Lively place if you come later at night. read more

Food was very white-washed/americanized. The taco salad was literally just lettuce, tomatoes, and ground beef, on a tortilla shell, nothing fancy. The chips and tortillas tasted weird to me, like soap almost. Not good. read more

So here we go... One group of hot a#$ milfs roll up 16 deep... They were alright, then the drinks come. Let me tell you the drinks come "fuerte". We are drunk beat is bumping, food hits and I shit my pants...Drinks hit and I start to dance. Food was great tho 4/5 read more

Fantastic margaritas and great service. All three of meals where delicious as well :)

Cute dive that exceded my expectations. The service here was incredibly quick and efficient, we got in and out of here in about 35 mins. I ordered the carne ascada burrito and it was fantastic. The beans on the burrito were surprisingly my favorite part. They give you free chips and salsa that were amazing. The chips must of been house-made because their flavor was astounding. Mexican restaurants are normally a hit or miss, this was definitely a hit. read more

Friendly and colorful atmosphere. The wait staff is also super nice and the food arrives really quickly. The only downfall to it coming so quickly (thats what she said) is that a lot of is probably prepared way ahead of time. Still tastes great though and the chips and salsa there are the best I have had around kzoo. Pretty good drink specials throughout the week too. Went on my birthday once and got a huge complimentary fried icecream dessert. So good. read more

Wasn't authentic tasting at all ! Although t was inexpensive , I felt it was overcrowded and the food wasn't so great read more

Los Amigos - Mexican Near Me - Kalamazoo, Michigan

We usually love LOs Amigos but this time we only received a partial order and grub hub refused to deliver the missing food, would not process a refund and refused to connect me with a manger after leaving me on hold. Extremely slow, incompetent call center person who didn't offer any help. Won't be ordering again. BEWARE, don't have food delivered by GRUBHUB from this restaurant. They both screwed up. read more

Less than one star order mango margarita on the rocks, and got a frozen one with a fly in it!! I added a pic to profile page. Absolutly nasty will never go again. read more

Los Amigos might as well take their sign down and replace it with a Chipotle sign instead. Why you ask? Because their food is straight dog shit a complete disgrace to Mexican food establishments around the US. Im guessing all the cooks in the back have Parkinson's because the last two times I went there the burritos were the farthest from rolled properly. The only reason they have one star from me is because their margs slap. -Pelican Out read more

Delicious food, not too hot for this northern gal. Watch out for the Margaritas since they make them strong here. One small margarita and I've been buzzed for almost an hour. I know I'm a lightweight when it comes to drinks, but I've never had ONE single drink (my limit) get me buzzed before! I needed the huge plate full of food (Seafood Chimichanga) to soak up some of the alcohol. Mom and I both enjoyed our meal, and it looks like Mom will be driving us home to prevent a visit from my old co-workers on the ambulance. read more
