    If you could only taste through the app! This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in STL and possibly anywhere. Their food is quality, flavorful, and perfect portion sizes. It is a family-oriented atmosphere with friendly staff. I've been coming here for years and had my go-tos on days I didn't want to think. Today, I was looking at the menu thinking I was going cray cray because it looked different. Whew, not crazy - today they launched new menus! They've simplified the menu in offerings, but kept protein selection for all applicable items. There's new items on the menu, and today I tried one - Chimichanga Rancheras- and 6 out of 5 ! The ranchera sauce has spice, not as spicy as their house-made salsa. The chimi is soaking up queso and then topped with a healthy dousing of the Ranchera sauce. The pork, the pulled pork that's inside it- awning the best I've ever had, including bbq restaurants.: moist, juicy, enhanced porkiness flavor... mouthwatering. Salsa- competes with Mom's Margaritas (lime on the rocks) - hit the spot if you know what I mean Wanna meet meet me at Mariachi's?!

    Great food, margaritas, and service. Even on Cinco de Mayo!! We had a group of four and everyone loved all the things.

    We had 9 people, They don't take reservations but we had a table available when we got there early dinner at 3pm. The Cadillac margaritas were huge and tasty. As soon as we sat down they bought warm homemade chips, salsa and we ordered guacamole. Our waiter was very good. The food was tasty. Some of the dishes with meat were dry and the whole fish was over cooked. Presentation and amount of food with all those onions, peppers, rice were all good. Refried beans were ok.

    Such a cute family owned place. I live across the street in bevo and will definitely be walking over here more often!! I got the chicken taco salad it was HUGE and had so much meat, 10/10. My friend got the chimichangas and they were amazing, we split the chorizo dip and it was also delicious. The servers are SO kind, we had never been here but we were treated like regulars in the best way. Also, the margaritas were HUGE :) highly recommend!

    This is legit one of my favorite Mexican food in the city! I always recommend it to people who recently move to the city. If I lived nearby, I know I would go to Mariachi's II at least once a week. I had the fajita burrito and the large Cadillac margarita. The grilled chicken fajita burrito was seasoned and tasty. The fajita veggies were crunchy the way I liked it. I could barely finish the margarita, you really get your money's worth with the amount of alcohol they put in it. The portion size are pretty big, I couldn't finish my food after stuffing my face with chips and Salsa. It was nice having leftovers to take home. The staff were attentive and accommodating. Mariachi's II gets extremely busy during the weekends and I don't think they take reservations. Always nice to plan ahead, we were luckily to be seated right away!

    This place is pretty tasty. Probably one of the best mexican places I have had. I usually always get chimichangas and lately just do beef. The beef in this one is ground beef. At first I was unsure about a ground beef chimi because all I have had were cubed beef or steak. The rice, beans and gauc all have great taste. Salsa was really spicy but the consistency that I like. Not pictured but if you go, get a cadillac!! Wont disappoint.

    When I want Mexican food in St. Louis, this is where I go. Authentic, fresh, delicious, super fast service. So fast that often I regret getting a pitcher of Margaritas as the food arrives before I'm one glass in. I always get the enchiladas although I want to try more. The enchiladas are just so good. The salsa is the best in the area, lots of delicious cilantro flavor. Cozy interior and great staff.

    Mini Chimi, Chili Relleno, Cruchy Beed Taco - lunch special, pick 3

    Holy hell! Ok, so we've been in the area for quite some time and we've been to a good, I'd say, ten places to eat Mexican. As a matter of fact there's a place that's 5 minute's walking distance that's alright. We were hoping that would be our go-to place to get just food in general, but bonus because it's Mexican. Mariachis II has blown all these other places out of the water. We went for Friday lunch and couldn't have had a better experience. We were seating right away, drink orders taken right away, complimentary chips and salsa right away, and we order the queso which came within a minute, nice and hot. The menu wasn't huge, which was perfect. Other places give you so many dishes I don't think anyone orders more than a quarter of what's on the menu. But the menu was their lunch menu which was nice, they had options for fajitas, a few more things, or the combos. That's what we got. You get to pick either two or three items, I think there were 6 items....I'm sure you can look at the photos here and see the menu. I got the crunch beef taco, mini chimi, and chili relleno. My wife got Crunchy beef taco, mini chimi, and a tostada. Y'all.....the beef tacos were so good. Not the usual watered down taco meat you find everywhere else, it was actual, nice meat that was well flavoured and just ever so slightly dripping of grease. The toppings were pico de gallo and worked well with the tacos. The chili relleno was the best I've ever had. It wasn't burn your mouth hot, it was full of cheese, the breading was perfect, and the sauce was out of this world. Now, the mini chimi on the other hand....where wasn't much mini about it. It was about 8 inches long, about 3 inches across. (insert your own phallic joke here) It was well wrapped, the tortilla wasn't too thick, so it wasn't just a bunch of dough, the filling was the same as the taco, the cheese sauce was super good. I give this visit a perfect 5 stars. I will definitely go back and hope for the same type of food quality. Oh! And the service, as touched upon at the beginning, was nice, quick, and our waiter was in a very good mood. It added to the pleasant experience. Pictures of the food included**

    It's okay. I got the chicken quesadilla and it was fairly dry. To be fair, I ordered delivery, so I'm sure that affected quality.

What is odd it that I was charged for Vegetarian Fajitas as well. I did not look at my receipt until I was 2,000 miles away. The Manager of Chavas credited my Visa was he informed of the issue. Again, Maricela was key in rectifying the issue. Chavas was very good and we would return if in the area.

    We still love this place! I'm not sure how many times we've been here over the past few years, but…read morewe've never had a negative experience here. My husband and I have been here a number of times, we've brought our (adult) daughters and their partners, out of town visitors, and we've recommended it to friends. Some of our friends went on our recommendation and enjoyed it. Again, I have to say that we love the vibe, the staff, and the food - probably equally! We sat out on the covered patio last night. It was pretty hot out, but the cover and the fans made it feel okay out there. We ran into neighbors as we were leaving. It's about 35 minutes from our house and we have never seen anyone we know there. They were enjoying it as well! The only negative I can think of is the restroom situation. There is one restroom with one toilet - plan ahead! There's usually a line. We'll definitely be back!

    This is a hard review because in my party of 4, my meal was horrible but everyone else had a…read moretasty-gratifying meal. To start, we ordered the guac. It's not authentic guac with chunks of guac, instead it was creamy and didn't have a clumps of avocado or flavor. It was more of a blended consistency with just a smashed avocado flavor. The chips were awesome! I ordered the mahi-mahi tacos. The first one that was brought to the table was fried so well done the fish inside was rubbery and dry, and the outer coating was black. My waiter apologized, visually confirmed that the dish was not right, took the dish and 5-10 minutes later brought out the same dish, assuming this one would be better. It wasn't. The fish was overwhelmingly fishy smelling, dry and overall, I felt like I would've had a better meal at McDonalds ordering their Filet o' fish. Ugh! The waiter took the one bite eaten from the taco dish and removed it from the ticket. He asked if he could bring me something else, but so much time had passed between the last 2 mix-ups that for me to order anything to replace the meal, my party would've left me at the table so I just had chips for dinner. Where I see an issue, is one would think a manager would've come over apologizing, or something. Yet, I felt like the bad guy sent to her room with no dinner. When the bill came, the waiter, what I feel like intentionally put the bill directly in front of another person from our party rather than in the center of the table. Probably because that person loved his meal... A person in my party got the 3 taco dinner- only ate one taco. Packaged up the other two tacos. I paid, tipped 20% assuming it wasn't the waiter's fault. And we walked out. We got to the front door, the person in my party that had boxed up the 2 tacos realized she left her box at the table, turned around 1-2 minutes after leaving, went back to the table and our waiter said he threw away the box! It wasn't busy ... I understand wanting to clean a table, but there should be some protocol of if this happens, maybe the bussers have x number of minutes before they throw away a meal that someone intentionally boxed up to take home. So -2 stars- I won't go back but if you try this place you might get something delish. My hope is you fall on the positive side of these reviews.

Hope that this is not a premonition of what might be to come for this location! We were seated right away and there were some fans going which made the dining area a little warm but still decently comfortable considering it was 90 degrees outside. Chips and salsa are complementary here as they are at most Mexican restaurants. Chips are thin and light & the salsa is flavorful but without any heat. I ordered the carne asada quesadilla. It comes with pico, guacamole, & sour cream on the side. The quesadilla came out hot as did all of the other entrees. The portions for this entree are huge. It is a large burrito size flour tortilla folded in half and cut into 4. It could easily be split between two people especially if you order a side of rice/ beans to go with it. The pico & guacamole tasted great & were excellent accompaniments to the quesadilla. Service was good & friendly as well!

I am still trying to make better choices and went with Tortilla Soup and Mexican Salad. The soup had a good flavor it was creamier than I expected but good. I would skip the Mexican salad next time, it had rice, beans, Pico, shredded lettuce, sour cream, and guacamole. It was a lot but I wanted more guacamole and should have just ordered that on its own. One of my companions got the Veracruz Special and it looked really good! I really love the chips, they are thin and crispy and hard to stop eating them. Great staff who served us with no issues and with a smile is a win!
