The food was good. I had the molcajete and trio of cheese, guacamole & salsa dip. The service was fast and very friendly. The ambiance is definitely a Mexican family style restaurant. Full bar as well including draft beers, custom margaritas and seating at the bar if you're wanting that. We sat at the table next to the kitchen and the noise didn't affect our normal level of talking and listening. read more

We stopped here on our way up north. We were pleased to find they had a spacious front patio that was well shaded, even during a heat wave it was cool. They welcomed our well behaved dogs there. The menu was large and clear. The margaritas, also large . The food came incredibly fast and was pretty good but not amazing. The servings were also large. The staff were attentive and kind. Overall would come back and try more food read more

We tried for the first time. Nice inside and friendly staff. However, we both ordered fish tacos for $17.99 each and a water. Great presentation but the fish piece was so very small you could hardly taste or see it. They gave us chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. They ask if we would like more without telling us it's another charge. We're not sure if we will go back. The bill was $39.** read more

Craving Mexican food, we decided to give this restaurant a try during our recent visit to Grayling. Cute downtown location. Festive atmosphere. Friendly and attentive waitstaff. Prices were reasonable. 5-stars in these areas. My husband and I are trying to eat low-carb so we chose the Molcajetes Mexicana bowl. Definitely enough for two. Peppers and onions are suited with a flavorful sauce and covered with a flat, thin square of steak and chicken, a skewer of shrimp, chorizo and a chunk of cheese. A side of beans and rice plus tortillas are included. Interesting combination of flavors and textures. It was piping hot and looked wonderful. The meat tended to be somewhat dry and flavorless on its own but was more flavorful when swirled with the other spices and vegetables. The chink of cheese just seemed weird. We rated this main a 4-star. We would definitely return to try some other entrees. Overall an enjoyable dining experience. read more

Best Cinco de Mayo I've ever had in Northern MI! The restaurant was all decorated and they were giving out sombreros and necklaces to make it super festive and fun. The service was excellent and the people so nice, not to mention the delicious actual real Mexican food. So glad this place is here! read more

Came in for a quick drink before an event. The servers were nice and got us right in and out. The drinks were good and the food smelled delicious. Definitely interested in coming back and getting the food. read more

Steak in our meal was ice cold, asked if it was fresh made and was told yes, manager claimed it was fresh, until I insisted it tasted like week old microwaved steak. Then he admitted it was from the day before, which I found odd, they were closed the day before. We use to eat here once or twice a week, now we go rarely. For a dish that cost $37 I expect more. read more

Food is great! Staff is nice. Service overall is great, and the ambiance is very authentic and a nice cultural addition to this very 'conservative' area. Very impressed. read more

I just left there. I had a wet burrito which was dripping wet with water filled with flavorless chicken. I also had a chicken taco with flavorless chicken. They only make them one way with lettuce and tomato no cilantro with onion. The service was great, but I left most of my dinner. I did eat the taco. read more

Driving home from Niagara Falls made our stop here in grayling and Located in a small down town street we decided to try some of their Mexican food. Must be new or newly moved because of the now open sign.. lol.. It was getting packed by 6:00 pm so we were glad we got there at 5:00. We were quickly seated by very friendly staff. We were asked if we wanted chips and salsa. (Note: it is not free, you get a order of very tasty thinner fresh made chips and a salsa and what looks like a small bowl of a Mexican Crema, not sure and didn't ask for $1.50) We did ask for another basket of chips and two salsa's and didn't get charged for those. Not sure if they forgot or what. Salsa was not spicy at all so luckily I bring my own heat to add, they only have cholula on the table. Hubby got the 5 enchilada plate said it was good I wasn't impressed when he gave me a bite of his beef enchilada, but I'm usually not a fan. Didn't like the flavor of the meat. What I had though was very VERY good (even hubby said he should have got that) three cheese enchiladas with caso on top covered in grilled onions, bell peppers and a healthy helping of pork roast CHUNKS on top, extra rice no beans.. WOWZER was that a tasty dish, I'm still thinking about it. The rice was typical. Never had a plate like this at any Mexican restaurant before, and we've been to a lot. And only $16.99. Never checked out their bathrooms, so can't say anything there, little lacking on floor clean up. Little small inside I think for a Mexican food place that I'm pretty sure is the only one in town so I'm figuring they are going to have to think about expanding a bit before long. By the time we left there were at least 5 families waiting to be seated. Their margaritas and other drinks seemed to be a hit as well. Like I said before, friendly service, quick to take orders and fast delivery on the food and very good at coming for refills of water and drinks and clearing plates. Impressed!!!! read more

first tine going here... was really good... staff friendly... food was really good! Drinks good.. will go again!

The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were beyond friendly and helpful (thank you, Luis!). The Cancun burrito was big enough for the two of us to share and still have left-overs! The atmosphere is bright, welcoming, and clean, such a little gem in a small town. Between the authentic flavors, generous portions, and outstanding service, this is a worth a stop. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area! read more

Lunch enchiladas were fantastic and at a very appealing price. Service was above par and the ambiance was inviting. Definetely worth a go...

Best I've had in a long time! I got the poblanos (chile rellanos) and deliciosa per their recommendation. I had a drink while waiting for carry out. I didn't check my order before leaving, but once I got to my destination 10 minutes away, I realized they didn't give me the rice, beans, guacamole salad, or the tortillas for either order. The chile rellanos are something I order if an establishment has them because they're my favorite and hands-down, these are the best I've had in a long time. The skirt steak and chicken with the deliciosa were nicely cooked, moist, and flavorfully seasoned! I didn't take any photos, which is a rarity for me, but the meal was so good, I just dug in. read more

Solid Mexican food in northern Michigan. My husband and I tried different combo platters and but were very good. I especially enjoyed the chili relleno was very good and cheesy. The service was fantastic. My husband dropped his knife and literally a staff member saw and ran across the restaurant ti bring him a new one. Drinks refilled without asking. Easy option to pay at table with QR code on bill. Average restaurant prices. read more

Had such a delicious meal at Mi Mazcalito. I lived in California and had great Mexican food but their chef in Grayling is terrific. Excellent service, a great beer and cocktail selection -- we always enjoy ourselves there. read more

Excellent service. The food is always hot and fresh and delicious. So glad to have this new place in Grayling. Great drinks and big tables for larger groups. read more

Walked in 11 mins to the cut off for lunch and the guy at the front asked the waitress if I should get the lunch menu...um lol ok. Then I ordered a lunch special, asked for onion in my enchilada they forgot so she brought out raw ones then charged me a $1.50. Never again. Food -10, service a 1. And, definitely not authentic Mexican! read more

Food is always good, fresh and hot. Service is exceptional, quick and efficient. Bright colors, soccer on TV and the smell of fajitas make the ambiance unforgettable. read more

Excellent and authentic. Almost all the staff is Hispanic and the food reflects their devotion to the cuisine. Things move quickly in spite of the fact that they have a full house. With or without a cold cervesa, you will leave feeling full. Of good food and good cheer. read more

Loved my burrito. Delicious. Asked that it be served hot and it was! The waiter made it a perfect experience for all of us. Meals came quickly, and all as ordered! (Note: chips and salsa are extra charge but they tell you now when they ask if you want them.) Blue margarita on ice was fabulous too! read more

Luis' was our server, wonderful with his suggestions. He also knew that five women would like separate checks before being asked! The food was amazing (try the carnitas tacos!). We'll be back. read more

Food was just okay. To the people stating that it's very authentic, I would beg to differ. Cheese sauce??? It's just plain nasty. How about using Muenster cheese on your dishes not some cheese sauce that I have no idea what it is and isn't appetizing to the eye or tongue. My food came with guacamole and sour cream I received about a tablespoon of each which was ridiculous. Needed about 3x more at least. I've never in my life paid for the salsa and chips. While it's just $1.50, it's not the norm for Mexican restaurants. Here is something that the owners need to take heed and correct: The service was horrific. Waiter wasn't attentive and was pretty much absent the whole time. The restaurant only had a few tables with people and there was an abundance of staff, so there's no excuse. I will be hard pressed to return if things remain the same. read more

It's difficult to find a Mexican restaurant that doesn't taste like all the others and I thought it would be even more difficult in Northern Michigan. But this was a pleasant surprise. Food was very good and staff was extremely friendly. Great place! read more

Enjoyed the Happy Hour margaritas and some tasty mole enchiladas. Others in my party recommended their Deliciosa platter. Wonderful and friendly server (shout out to Anahi). Great vibe inside even though quite busy. read more

Be prepared to be nickle and dimed here. As soon as you are seated they tell you that there is a charge for chips and salsa. I ordered fish tacos which were barely warm. The sauce that the provided with the tacos was in a cup the a quarter, and the rice was cold. The furniture was old and very warn. It's a shame. I love Mexican food but not here. read more

Busy Saturday night yet wait staff was still fast and efficient! food came out quick, hot and correct! Would definitely recommend and we'll be back! :) read more

This is cool that this place just opened Dec '24! Frendly meeting at door and sat immediately (in for early dinner). Since I didn't know this restaurant's reputation, we ordered appetizers. The Queso Fundido w/ chorizo (xtra) was excellent, the Guacamole app had no seasonings but was beautiful..I thought I was ordering a small bowl. The Pico de Gallo was not fresh, ie, it came from a fridge made day before. Disappointing. Ordered alacarte Tamale and Enchilada. Tamale was large w substantial pork. Enchilada was small. All would be good but instead of a traditional sauce on them, someone decided a pastey tomato sauce would be ok. NOT. OK...all good but not sure I'll be back for full plates/entrees. This place, IMO, is expensive. Napkins are chintzy, we're charged for usual gratuitous...spicier salsa and chips & salsa. Sad to pinch pennies. there. read more

This is my new favorite! Food was perfect! ( Enchiladas de Jaiba and Cancun Burrito) Service was also top notch, Luis was very attentive and polite! The seating is plentiful for any size party and very family friendly atmosphere and great ambiance. @$20 per person but portion sizes make it more than worth it! read more

Food was phenomenal, service was absolutely excellent, and I loved the celery in the restaurant.

Friendly staff and it smells Amazing. So happy there is a Mexican (and authentic) place in Grayling. Will be amazing in the summer!

Overall the food was pretty good, the chicken was juicy and the rice wasn't over it under done. The ambiance was like a traditional Mexican restaurant and was very clean and well set up. The service was ok-ish; the staff was super kind but you had to ask multiple times for things, dirty dishes were left on the plates, etc. After all it is northern Michigan and by the looks of the restaurant it is new, and I'm not expecting perfection. read more

First time there and it was a holiday weekend. Service was excellent and it was super busy. Food was delicious We had the steak quesadillas and the La Deliciosa (large enough to split). Recommend the pitcher of mango margaritas, too! read more

No Bueno. Cheese dip was tasty. Salsa was nice and fresh. Ordered combination dinners. Bland lukewarm food. Rice and beans were flavorless. Red sauce and beef were flavorless. Plates were hotter than the food. Cheese was not melted. Server was attentive! That's the reason for the two stars. Unfortunately a one and done for us. If it survives, it is because it's the only game in town besides Taco Bell....which I actually prefer for the cost! One tip: Drive north a few miles and try the Frederic Inn. Tasty Mexican American food. My favorite is the Mexican pizza! read more

The food is great. It was authentic tasting, and the staff is great. The food came out very fast and the restaurant was very vibrant and clean. read more
