Amazing a must if you love Mexican! First time in Columbus and we were so tired, hungry and cold, so decided to eat at this place right next to our hotel! Brianna was our waitress and was amazing! Food was excellent from the chips and salsa to the end! Pollo crema I think was name so great! Don't miss out read more

Had dinner here last weekend with my family. The restaurant felt cozy, and the staff made sure we were comfortable even though it was packed. My steak came medium rare just like I asked. Dessert took a bit long, but the cheesecake was worth it. read more

My husband and I eat here often. It is our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. We love the servers. They are friendly and the service is great. We absolutely love the Tacos Vampiro. The steak is always perfectly seasoned and the verde sauce is excellent. The chips and salsa are delicious too!! read more

We the chicken Santa Fe. Lots of vegetables and the chicken is always tender. Service is prompt.

This is my daughters favorite Mexican restaurant in Columbus. We've all been here before. They were out of what I wanted (carnitas is my go-to Mexican dish) so I had a chicken taco and a beef enchilada. They were fine. The refried beans are really good. Hubbo had a rellano (beef) and a tamale. He liked both. read more

We traveled from Arizona to Alabama recently and stopped by this restaurant. We found the service and ambience were great. We ordered the Chili con Carne which consisted of a red chili with a pork and beef mixture. The Chile con Carne wasn't my favorite as I found it to be unseasoned. However the rice and rice were delicious. I'm certain if I tried other things on the menu, I would have liked it. Should we ever return to Phenix, Alabama, I would stop by and try something else. read more

Nasty!!! Ate here twice and LITERALLY got sick both times. Never again!!!! DISGUSTING!!! Greasy food, and they do NOT know how to make a quesadilla. Served a shrimp quesadilla (pictured) where the wrap was soggy & only a bit of cheese and a few baby shrimp. That's NOT a quesadilla. It looked like 2 tacos!!! Y'all need to do better!!! The best thing in here are the drinks. Hard to mess them up! read more

I was really impressed with this place. The food is delicious and very well seasoned. I Will definitely be coming back.

I consider myself somewhat of a Tex Mex aficionado and was legitimately heartbroken when I moved here three years ago and found out there were no restaurants that served chile relleno (referred to as "chiles poblanos" in Georgia). I had been meaning to check out this new spot since it opened and was excited when my husband agreed to an indulgent date night. We ordered the Benihana-style guacamole made at the table, a $2.99 Monday margarita, a chiles poblanos, and the burrito California. While the guacamole and smokey salsa were a tad under-salted, both of our meals were exactly as expected: Tex Mex. Neither were revolutionary but they hit the spot and comforted us in a flurry of carbs and cheese. The only strange thing was that the woman who I can only assume is the owner took our second basket of chips off our table without asking, since our entrees had been brought to us. In hindsight, she probably did it because she knew what was best for us and didn't want us to pass out from a carb-coma. All in all, we had a great date, for a great price, and I am happy to have found a place to supply me with favorite Tex Mex dish. read more

I went to visit my best friend in Columbus and hadn't eaten all day after my drive. I remembered seeing this place next door to the ABC store I visited initially and I wondered if was any good. We were allowed inside to place our orders as we didn't call or go online beforehand since we were already close by. After we were given a five minute ETA for a chimichanga, tacos, tostones, and chile rellenos, I had to run that by him because that's unheard of. Sure enough we had our meals, salsa and other condiments included in five very short minutes. The timing was impressive but the flavors were even more captivating. Food was deliciously seasoned, spiced to perfection and plenty to go around. We both finished our meals leaving nothing behind. I think it's safe to say I'll be bock read more

I first visited this restaurant with my brother based upon the stellar reviews they were given on yelp; since then I have dined three other times and the serviced diminished each time. 1st visit...Kristen is EXCELLENT! if you go ask for her! She is very attentive. I ordered strawberry margarita... it was EVERYTHING! The complimentary chips come with two salsas both of which are quite enjoyable. The verde sauce was mild and the red sauce had a hint of "kick" to it. My entree was the three tacos of which I tried the steak, pollo and carnitas... a mix if you will. The steak ... GET IT! the carnitas... A MUST, the pollo was pretty basic, but not bad. The meal comes dressed with a side of guacamole and sour cream which both could use some work. The guacamole needs some attention in regards to taste and the sour cream is watered down and runny. 2nd visit I ordered a chile poblano... it was "ok" and so was the service. 3rd visit I ordered a carnitas taco.. it cost $6.50 which was crazy; like literally some pulled pork and a tortilla with no dressings to go with it. The service sadly was not good. The staff members were more involved in their own personal conversations than the customers; mind you it wasn't even busy. There was literally no discretion about their conversations. The waitress I had to seek out to be sat and waited on because there was no one to great us at the front upon entering the restaurant. We had to ask for refills more than once to include additional napkins and straws. The place has been open for less than a year from what I was told by the staff and is tucked away in a small complex near the Hollywood Connections building. Its easy to miss if you are not looking for it. Considering the level of service these past visits I'm certain I will not be returning. read more

My husband's taco salad was good - flavor was great but he says that he could not find the cheese if there was any and he likes shredded cheese on his taco salad. My quesadilla was also good. Lots of shredded chicken, some kind of melted cheese/bean filling, and a side of lettuce, sour cream and guacamole. We both ordered off the lunch menu which meant lunch was less than$15, without drinks. Typical lunch sized portions. Our waitress was great: efficient, quick, attentive and not over bearing. The only reason they did not get 5 stars was that it didn't feel like a 5 star lunch. The ambience was just nothing special. It was clean and utilitarian and practical, but nothing special. We may, or may not, go back there is no special draw. read more

Monterrey tex-mex - What a fun place! - Mexican Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

My bride and my favorite! It's our "go to" Friday night date! Great frozen margaritas!

I stopped in here after a weekend at Providence Canyon after it was recommend to me by a local friend. Needless to say, we were pretty hungry after a two day hiking experience and camp food in our bellies. It was totally empty when we stopped by, and the servers were clearly enjoying their time off. Okay, no big deal, I enjoy a few spare moments of my day as well. I'm a huge fan of all types of Spanish and Mexican food, with a preference for more authentic flavors, but I'll really eat any kinds of it. I ordered fajitas here, which I loooove, and they were okay. Honestly, nothing has been able to replicate the fajitas at a small place where I used to live. Those were, and remain, the best fajitas I've ever had. However, what stands out here is the salsa. The salsa here IS AMZING. I can't recall what kind it is, since it's been awhile since I was here, but it was smoky, rich, hearty, and full of flavor. That combined with the well salted chips (freeee) gives this place a well-deserved fourth star. I mean, the salsa seriously IS that good. I'd come here again just for that delicious salsa. I ended up taking the leftover stuff home and putting it on my own homemade tacos later that week. THE VERDICT: Food is fine, service is fine, restaurant is clean, there's plenty of parking. Salsa IS GREAT and comes with the free chips, so make sure you try it. read more

The food is good and the staff is helpful. The wait times for food can be longer than other Mexican places in the area, but by no means are they long. The food is a bit more like true Tex Mex, like I used to get in Midland, TX, which is a nice change of pace. It won't be different enough to put off a less discerning palate. Check it out! read more

Smoked salsa! That's all you need to know ! Shrimp fajitas quesadillas had the most flavor ! My buddy had the Burrito-al-carbon and it was even better. This place is a must try, when you come ask for Bianca. The best service in Columbus! read more

I've been here twice and I had excellent food and service both times. The salsa is some of the best, if not absolute best, in town. I've had the burrito and tacos with chicken, and they were excellent quality with explosive flavors. The portion sizes are also very large. For desert you simply must try the xango. It really is one of the best things I've put in my mouth. The ice cream, the cheesecake, the cinnamon. Mmmmmmmm. read more

The food was very disappointing. Having lived and traveled extensively around the country and Mexico I try to sample Mexican fare wherever I can. That being said this was among the worst Mexican or Tex-Mex food I have ever had. I am shocked by the amount of great reviews for this place. The service was good and the place was clean, but I am sure there are better options for good Mexican food in the area. read more

Tucked away in a corner next to Staybridge, this hidden gem treated us well. The staff was super friendly and their recommendations seemed honest and were absolutely the best. Everything tasted fresh and they even made the guacamole right in front of us! Will definitely be back. read more

My favorite Mexican place in town! Always good. Chips are thin and crispy and salsa is so good!

This is hands down the best Mexican restaurant in town! Yes, it's Tex-Mex but it is so delicious! We went on a Thursday-$2.99 sangrias!!! They were wonderful! I had one chicken taco and one carnitas taco. The meat was seasoned so well and juicy. The salsa was the best Mexican restaurant salsa I've ever had! New favorite Mexican food spot for sure! Priced very reasonably too! read more

Great TexMex. My wife grew up in El Paso and is pretty picky about "good" TexMex. She says we will be coming back here. Probably only 2 other Mexican/TexMex restaurants have received this seal approval in the last 3 years. Prices are very reasonable, 2 entrees, 2 desserts and 2 margaritas for $33. Wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoy a simple atmosphere and good TexMex. read more

I will always stay away from this restaurant, I ordered once and that's was enough, the meat tasted like fish and the flavor isn't either Texas or Mexican read more

This was the worst Mexican food experience we have had. The employees were all sitting at a table eating when we walked in. The manager appeared to be annoyed towards my spouse and I but was very professional and courteous with the Caucasian customers. One guy gets up and goes to the kitchen to start our orders I did not hear any indications that he washed or sanitized his hands. It just appeared as though he just started cooking.The cups and silverware were dirty. This place could use training in cleanliness and customer service. read more

The food was bland. I asked for vodka and cranberry, the waitress brought me tequila and cranberry. Visiting from out of town and was totally disappointed. It had such high reviews. Service was sub par. I got the carne asada and it was not good. Not coming back. read more

CHICKEN FAJITA SALAD...my co-worker and I order the Steak/Chicken Fajita Salad this evening via The Waitr App. Extremely DISAPPOINTED at the fact that we received them in NO bowl/container/dish but wrapped in aluminum foil. Of course, we received a SOGGY, not crispy flat looking taco bowl. I know you are BETTER than that so I assume this has to be a "worst Wednesday" for you! read more

Food was really good. I ordered Togo. I ordered the shrimp and steak fajitas. I also ordered a cheesecake, I thought I would receive ice cream with it. Maybe they don't give ice cream with Togo orders. The food was fresh and hot. I felt like I received a lot of food. It took about 15 to 20 minutes to get my food. When I walked in they had two other guest. The restaurant was clean. The waitress was nice and helped me with all of the questions I had. read more

We go here all the time and love it! The owner is very kind and helpful! The salsa & chips are my favorite in town of all Mexican places! The fajitas have loads of veggies in them and the food is always fresh! They're always willing to go the extra mile and I love it! read more

I have no idea who "Chandler C." is, but the fact that he would complain about the chicken fingers at a Tex-mex restaurant tells me everything I need to know. He must have a very poor sense of taste, and IMHO is the kind of person who would order the chicken salad at a steak house. My gf and I ate here (we both got tacos ;), and it was excelente. Very clean restrooms. read more

Server Christian was on it. Food was very good. Skirt steak burrito was tender and had flavor. Great salsa's and cheese dip.

First off, we expected this place to be exceptional given the score that it has. The waitstaff is absolutely amazing, courteous and helpful, but the food leaves something to be desired. To be blunt, the best thing that we had was the chips and salsa. Both of our entrées were leaving something to be desired taste wise. One of us ordered fish tacos and a received shrimp tacos but because we were hungry we just ate it. It came with this "special sauce" that was just basically french fry sauce and then the beans tasted like they had been refried a few too many times and the tamal was so dry that all of the sauce on top of it did not help with the flavor at all. I could not eat it or chew it barely because it was so dry and hard. The waitress went above and beyond to try and get me a replacement but I was worried that whatever came to the table would taste just as bad. read more
