Service was great. I got the burritos fajitas smothered in cheese - the flavors packed a punch and the steak was juicy. Any cheese lover can't go wrong with these. Husband got quesabirria which was also super juicy and flavorful. Rice was cooked well. His michelada was delicious. Bathrooms were clean, atmosphere was pleasant. No complaints read more

Ima keep this review short and sweet ..it was good service was great. And the food was even better got the carne asada platter and it was worth every single penny the hot sauce far from hot and kinda bland for my liking but 5/5 place read more

Plaza Azteca - Carne asada platter - Mexican Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

We got food delivered from here tonight. We both got the quesadillas and they were so disappointing. Very dry also. I was excited to see that chips came with it, but those were stale too. We are very confused how everyone rated this place so highly. read more

We stopped in on a road trip through the northeast. My husband does not typically enjoy Mexican cuisine, but he not only enjoyed his dish, he also had some of my carnitas and thought they were amazing with great quality meat. We also had guacamole and barrila rolls food an appetizer, all were so good. The server was attentive and the food came out quickly. The restaurant was very clean and I enjoyed the large pieces of at they had on the walls. I highly recommend this restaurant, even if you don't typically like Mexican cuisine. read more

Plaza Azteca - Chips - Mexican Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

It's my first time at this establishment. I'm so impressed with the decor. The day of the dead paintings are out of this world!! Table service was amazing! Carlos was our server. He was so friendly and attentive. Chips, salsa, and queso are served promptly. Both are spicy! I wanted to have something different something with vegetables but not a salad (although those salads were sounding real tasty). I got Pollo Patrón. Grilled chicken with sugar snap peas, carrots broccoli and more, topped with a cheese sauce, served with rice, beans, and warm tortillas. Absolutely delicious! Came out fast too! I'll definitely be back. There a many more things I'd like to try. You should too. read more

New school Mexican vibes meets old school Mexican recipes. I enjoyed the food here more than I thought I would, and that speaks volumes about the Mexican cuisine I sorely missed when I moved to New York City. Big portions, fair prices, cute servers, a location that cannot be beat. All of it sums up for an experience that is unparalleled in the Harrisburg area, especially when it comes to this cuisine. I ordered a tortilla soup and it is served in a massive bowl with a side of tortilla strips and I enjoyed every bit of it. This is the soup you order when you are feeling blue or chilly. There is no wrong way to make one, but this one gets high marks for creativity, taste, and value. A high recommend from me. For an entree, I asked my server, Ruth (more on her in a few), for her opinion on her choice of fish tacos or seafood enchiladas. She convinced me to order the former. As someone who has been to San Diego, I take these seriously. They are up there with the ones in the city of endless summer. Tangy, great fish, an overall experience that pays respect to a fish rather than insulting it. The fish they use is the right call. I hate restaurants that use tilapia in it. That cheapens the whole thing. The horchata I ordered as a drink was full of flavor and quite refreshing. Now onto my server, Ruth. Cute, intelligent, attentive, she made my experience a wonderful one. I spoke Spanish with her (try me) and it worked well. I gave her a little extra when it came time to pay the bill. I hope someone sees my review and reinforces my feelings on how amazing she was. She earned it tonight. I do not often like I give restaurants five star reviews because I feel it has to be earned rather than given. This restaurant earns it, and that is certainly cause for a fiesta. read more

We were seated fairly quickly. The food was standard fare and the restaurant was very clean.

IT was awesome meet Mexican food ever and there was a birthday music blasting but the music was awesome and Jesus the food OH MY GOD Jesus came down in the form of Barria Tacos 12 stars don't look up the 5 stars above look down here for the 12 start rating read more

Plaza Azteca - Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Plaza Azteca serves up Mexican cuisine with bold, authentic flavors that hit the spot! Every dish I tried was packed with freshness and seasoned to perfection. The steak tacos are my favorite, that's served with a side of rice and beans. The chicken, steak, and shrimp fajitas are also mouthwatering delicious!!! My daughter enjoys the guacamole that's served once you're seated, and I absolutely love how you can order ceviche and it is prepared at table side. The staff is very friendly and service is excellent, your food is served within 10 minutes! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming--perfect for a casual night out or a festive dinner birthday party. The drinks? Absolutely delicious! Their margaritas are a must-try--smooth, flavorful, and strong enough to keep the vibes going. If you're in the Harrisburg area and craving quality Mexican food, this spot is a gem! read more

Fun vibe and really good food. Lots of seating in the bar and loads of booths. The bar also has a large TVs. Chips and salsa along with a creamy chipotle sauce right when seated. The green sauce on the enchiladas was very rich and flavorful. The fish tacos were fried perfectly and not greasy at all. The beans are perfect. We ordered an extra bowl because they were seasoned so well and we don't usually do that. All around a relaxing and delicious meal. read more

Finally there is a good Mexican restaurant in this area of Harrisburg that is easily accessible and close by. The Plaza Azteca off Progress Ave did a great job of remodeling the building of the previous restaurant to create a clean, open, and welcoming space. While Plaza Azteca's are a chain, the quality of food can vary between the different locations depending on the staff working at the restaurant. This Plaza Azteca far surpasses the one on the West Shore. We have probably already been to this location and/or had takeout at least a dozen times and have been very pleased. (A couple mis-steps with the accuracy of take out orders) . The dining room provides space for families and large groups. The bar and bartenders are great and create a positive vibe to relax with a drink (large selection on tap in addition to mixed drinks). We have sampled a variety of items off the menu and have been pleased with all our choices. A few highlights are: Spinach and Chicken Quesadillas, enchiladas, and the fajitas. The prices seem higher than needed, but portion sizes are large so things equal out in the end. read more

Food, service and atmosphere were great. Prices are also incredibly reasonable. I came with my husband and mother. We had the fried rice with shrimp, fish tacos, and empanadas all hot fresh and flavorful ... and not greasy which I despise. The decor was inviting and fun. I will absolutely be back. read more

The food was good, but not exceptional. I had Los Granados, which had too much cheese, making it too salty. My husband, on the other hand, enjoyed the ribeye tacos. The restaurant is big, so it's loud. I think it's good for large groups. read more

3.5. Quality foods and friendly service with a large menu of options to choose from. Maybe not culinary genius, but solid work from the kitchen. In uniform? Significant military discount. read more

Fresh nachos are crunchy with a salsa, we ordered the Nachos Supreme and Nachos Pastor - both huge servings and the combos #2 and #5 ,both delicious read more

Stopped in here for lunch with the family. Good Mexican. Really excellent carne asada (served with beans and rice and flour tortillas). Tons of tender steak and cooked perfectly (not over cooked or burned). My wife had the pastor burrito; was good (with tomatillo salsa). They have kids meals also. Decent fries and wings as well. Atmosphere inside is nice. Spacious and well appointed. Service was good. Complimentary chips and salsa to start (oddly, spicy/habanero salsa was not complimentary, fyi). Overall, would recommend. read more

Ate dinner here while in town for a work meeting. The staff were friendly and professional. The chips and salsa tasted very fresh, and our orders came out extremely fast after we placed them. The portion sizes are very large for the price and I took half of my fajita order home. The restaurant was very clean and bright inside, and the patio looked very cool too. read more

Plaza Azteca - Mixed chicken and steak fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

The outside does no justice for the inside. The inside looks clean and aesthetically pleasing. We were greeted by two beautiful ladies when we entered but then opted to eat and drink in the bar area. I love that they make fresh guac, in your face!. The bartender, who was also our server was completely professional, knowledgeable, inviting and just confident in his work. He made us two well crafted drinks. We also enjoyed the shrimp tacos. Everything from start to finish was PERFECT. If I'm ever in Harrisburg, I will return. read more

Located in the old "Your Place" location, the interior is brighter, bigger, and more colorful. When we visited a few weekends back, a big staff welcomed us and we were seated immediately. With a generous bowl off chips and thick salsa we browsed an uncomplicated menu expecting some generic Mexican food as is typical in the area. I ordered the beef and chicken with fried rice which came in a large portion with massive grilled shrimp that were so tasty and beef that was just spicy enough and very tender the cheese sauce was perfect to complement the flavors. Lady Matilda picked a plateful of cheese enchiladas with a side of rice and beans that she had to take home to finish. The restaurant was fairly busy for a Saturday afternoon. The higher prices were certainly worth the quality of food and service. read more

I absolutely love Plaza Azteca! I would go there for the chorizo dip and empanadas alone, but their entrees are amazing too. I adore their Birria Tacos. I also enjoy their margaritas when I'm in the mood for one. Plaza Azteca is great! read more

I've been here a few times now and each time is as fantastic as the last. Everything is clean, service is so prompt and the food and drinks are absolutely delicious! This is coming from three ... no actually four separate visits! All fantastic! If you order a mixed drink- they fancy it up- adding little garnishes to make it special. Come by! read more

I LOVED this place so much. interior was extremely beautiful. it was clean, perfectly decorated, and had these good vibes. our server was extremely kind. we immediately got some free tortilla chips. the server checked on us every 10 minutes to take away any plates or cups and to refill/ also to sure make we were having a good time during our trip to here. My food? AWESOME. Picky eater friendly, and not picky eater friendly too. the chicken fingers were so good, and they aren't even as unhealthy as fast foods. Bredding was crispy, and the chicken inside was tender, properly cooked, and very juicy. Also, it just had this unexplainable good flavor. I can't describe it exactly, but the chicken was better than usual chicken at most restaurants. It had like a tangy flavor, and also I was extremely happy with our drinks. I enjoyed my non alcoholic pina colada (sorry if I spelt that incorrect) and service was fast also. Food came out in maybe 10 minutes, but still super fresh and good. Portion sizes were good, a lot of food, and also it isn't that expensive really! Try this if you want a Mexican restaurant that also has some food that's good for your picky kids so they don't complain while you are trying to have a good dining experience. Awesome! :}}} they also offered my baby nefu free stickers, yes free. So awesome read more

So my family took me to this Mexican place, and I ordered the taco salad--no salsa, no guac, just the good stuff. I was a little nervous it might be bland, but nope... it was AMAZING. The shell was super crunchy, the meat had so much flavor, and there was tons of cheese and lettuce. Even without the extras, it didn't feel like anything was missing. It was just really, really good. Also, the waiter was really nice , and they had cool music playing in the background. read more

First of all they were kind enough on a busy night to seat us away from the bar. The food was amazing. Service was the best. Will go back

Our visit was amazing! The food and service were both phenomenal. Pamela was a great server! The ambiance of the restaurant was also so great. Will be coming again :) read more

The restaurant had great music playing with great decor. We sat at the bar because they had the football game on. Our bar tender was just okay. Didn't recommend anything on the menu. I ordered a Michelada, the worse I've ever had in my life, and my boyfriend a coconut mojito. Bar tender just put everything in a cup and never mixed. We ordered the Cali burrito (4/5) and the Birria tacos (4/5). We did not have to wait long for the food. Overall okay experience probably won't ever go back. read more
