Wonderful food and truly phenomenal customer service!! They made my family feel right at home and our 2 and 7 year old girls were super comfortable and smiling the entire time. Very attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. Super clean bathrooms that even smelled great too. Si Amigos is the best place for an awesome meal out with your family or friends. Thank you for making our dinner so lovely, we can't wait to come back!! read more

I was here on business and tried the local mexican food restaurants. These are my takeaways: Food: Food here is bland, doesn't have much vibrance. I had a wet burrito which has salsa drizzled over it. Nada, it could've been water with food coloring. The meat was also flavorless, despite being Al Pastor which is basically marinated over a whole day. What gives? Service: Impeccable. The staff is super friendly and familiar. They're attentive and funny. I would probably bring friends and family here if the food wasn't bland. But if we're here to get hammered, why not. Ambiance: Awesome. It gives you the small cantina vibes but clearly geared for family and friends. I've been to many mexican restaurants, this one for sure takes the cake on terms of looks. All in all, great for people that can't have too many spices, people that want to bring friends and family, want to dine at a little slice of Mexico. read more

The night started great, we were seated fast and I was thrilled by the bean dip and salsa appetizer. However, after ordering our drinks (two waters and a beer) we received one water and a beer, asked repeatedly for the other water and haven't seen our waitress for close to 15 minutes. I finally flagged her down when she went to another table for the third time, and we had to again ask for a water while placing our food order. I'm hoping the food makes up for the lack of service, and I do hope my boyfriend gets his water. I also had to steal silverware and napkins from another table because we never received ours. 20 minutes later and we've had to ask for our water two more times. Finally got the water, but yet to have food. Even if the food here is great, the service is wrecking it for me. I don't see myself returning to wait over an hour for food. At this point my boyfriend is saying maybe we should go somewhere to get food while we wait for our food. Our salsa hasn't been topped off. We have been ignored in the far back end of the restaurant, and there are no helpers to top off water or bring chips and salsa. It's been over an hour. This is getting ridiculous. Other patrons have been begging for their check, and one couple just walked out and wished us luck on ever getting fed. I've now asked for the check so we can pay and go eat somewhere else. When I asked if our food was coming soon our waitress sighed at us and huffed off. It's been an actual hour and we have not eaten yet. As I was typing this my food arrived, mine was wrong. I asked multiple times for no cheese or sour cream; it arrived covered in cheese. We took three bites and left. As an Elite Yelper it takes a lot for me to leave a review below 4 stars however, I honestly want to give this review no stars. The entire experience start to finish was terrible. Our food was cold when it finally did come out. The food was wrong. We were forgotten. Considering this is across the street from our house we had high hopes for a new dinner place. We will never return. read more

This place has been around forever. I used to come here all the time in college, but just recently went again in my 30s. They have delicious food. My favorite is the carnitas! Large selection of drinks, and they don't skimp out on the alcohol that's for sure. Our waiter was so funny! He made our night. Come here for fun and yummy food read more

The service was amazing, very clean restaurant. Nice vibes felt very authentic and relaxing. The chips were a little stale, enchilada sauce was sweet... which was not something I've ever experienced before.. but I'm not a fan. Chile Relleno was incredible according to my mom. Good place to go for a quick bite to eat! read more

We were hungry for Mexican food and, of course, Yelp helped us find this restaurant. We always order the same thing when trying a new Mexican restaurant. Both my husband and I had a chili relleno with a ground beef enchilada and I had a chicken enchilada. The chips were nice and hot but needed salt, and the salsa had no spice at all. The bean dip was pretty good. There was a choice of black beans or refried beans. We really liked the chili relleno as well as the enchiladas. He really liked the sauce but I wasn't crazy about it. The service was amazing. A manager as well as the server checked on us a couple times. I didn't take any pictures of the food, but I did take a picture of one of the chairs, because it had a giraffe.. All the chairs were different and beautiful. As we were leaving I noticed this sign and wondered why this information wasn't posted in the menu or even on each table. read more

If you're looking for a great Mexican restaurant that the kids will also enjoy them look no further! Great atmosphere, squeaky clean bathrooms and amazing food accompanied by superb customer service. There is a lot of parking since this place is located inside a strip shopping mall. We ordered a few alcoholic beverages and they were on point! The kids enjoyed the Horchata. We had Fish and Shrimp Tacos and the White Bass was delicious. We also had a burrito for my daughter and she devoured it. The enchiladas were just like from my moms kitchen. For appetizer had queso fundido with chorizo the flavor was a bomb in your mouth! Seriously our new go to spot when we come visit Reno. Paloma's we're good, camarones a la diabla were the perfect spice level. read more

Wow! I wish I could leave 0 stars. This place needs new management. The menu says complimentary chips, beans and salsa. When we finished the chips, they took the empty basket, salsa and beans we didn't finish. Knowing he would charge for more salsa when our food arrived I wouldn't have let him take the salsa in the first place. When asked why he did that he became very rude and tried to justify what he did saying it was my fault I didn't know. Horrible service all around. I Was so mad I didn't even finish my food before leaving the cash to cover just the bill and no tip. As a food service worker he said I should know better. I will spread the word that this place sucks. Don't waste your time or money at this establishment. read more

Took my son and his two children out to dinner. Six of us total, Food was ok, though the chicken burrito had very little chicken. We were charged a 20 percent gratuity along with a $5 charge for using my credit card. That came to a $25 charge on my bill. After receiving our food waitress never returned to ask how our food was. read more

Tacos Tuesday...Not a good deal. We felt cheated... I have not checked this restaurant out since they change the name (10 years) My wife was looking for a Tuesday dinner special and this place popped up that had two dollar tacos on Tuesday. We do a lot of Mexican restaurants and I didn't I have a great experience here 10 years ago here, so I thought why not give it a go. I brought my wife and three of my boys. When we walked in, the first thing I noticed is there was one other table. We pretty much had this giant restaurant to our self. My wife ordered a peach margarita, I got my usual Cadillac margarita on the rocks no salt. I asked about the Taco special, the guy said they were street tacos. He said they are smaller than normal. I've been to Mexico many times and I've been to sooo many Mexican restaurants, I was excited as I love a good street taco. The server (also bartender and owner) explained to me we had a choice of Carne Asada, pastor, carnitas or chicken. What we ordered: Cadillac margarita on the rocks no salt Peach margarita Five tacos Pastor Five tacos Carne Asada Five chicken tacos Five tacos Carnitas The drinks arrived pretty quickly, and were good. The Cadillac margarita did not have the signature Grand Marnier float on top. I'm not sure what type of tequila he used, but it was just an average Margherita compared to the ones I've been drinking lately. When the food arrives, we noticed that the tacos had very little meat on them. I mentioned that The tacos or short on meat and the guy said they're street tacos. I said I had plenty of street tacos and they've never been short on meat especially for two dollars. They gave no sauce, salsa or anything. I asked about this, and the guy went and got two squeeze bottles of two different sauces. I asked about pico de gallo, and the guy said it would be $2.50. It was pretty obvious at this point why there was no one in here for the " taco Tuesday" special. It was not a special it was just an excuse to give small tacos with very little meat. Small, Double layer tortilla with almost no meat, no tomatoes/salsa... So disappointing. Just look at the pictures. I have tried many taco Tuesday specials, this is the first time disappointed. I hope the owner reads this. Consider looking at other restaurants and how they do their taco Tuesday. It's designed to bring people in, generate new customers, reward existing customers with a special, and is similar to happy hour. You can read Wikipedia and other websites and the purpose. But even if there was no other information available, you would think that giving such a small amount of meat with a huge amount of starch, that you would at least honor a request of some thing to fill the tortilla, without charging. I am sure it would've been no issue to bring a little bit more meat for $40 price. If times are tough, being generous would generate way more business than being cheap. So after 20 tacos, my kids were still hungry. We paid the Bill (near $60) and headed over to a nearby Mexican restaurant that had a real two dollar tacos to to fill up me and my still hungry kids. They have the correct signature Cadillac Margarita with a Grand Marnier float. Plus they don't close till 9 PM, so we knew they were near and open. We've been to four Mexican restaurants this week, I was hoping to add another restaurant to our rotation, especially since we go to Sports west every day. But we will not be back here. I do not recommend this place nor will we be back. read more

Si Amigos - Fajitas were some of the best I've ever had! - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Went to take my compatriots to another restaurant in this strip mall that I frequent but the consensus changed when one of my passengers suggested Si Amigos. Never been there but I have been to most of the bars and restaurants in that area so I decided to give it a shot. The interior has a lot of wood and high ceilings, which makes for a comfy ambiance. The bar stretches out just beyond the door where a couple were having lunch. We got seated at a booth decorated with one of those colorful striped blankets you see adorned in shops and homes in Mexico. My friends got margaritas and I got a vampiro for drinks. The margaritas came in nice big, bowl like glasses and I heard they were pretty tasty. My Vampiro was an interesting drink and had the sweetness and spiciness of those Mexican candies with the tamarind. One of my friends immediately ordered one after I informed him and was equally impressed at the unusual(for me) drink. Our server was super cool and laid back and got our orders and drinks quickly. One moment that stood out to us was a neighboring table receiving their order of fajitas as the food comes out hot and sizzling on one of those metal platters. We all instantly regretted not ordering that amazing looking dish. In any case, my chili colorado was nice and tender, with a savory and slightly spicy tomato sauce. The plate also came with rice and a little bit of a cabbage garnish. I got corn tortillas but it felt weird to eat the chili with them so I let the table have at them. My friends tell me the chimichanga and enchiladas were also very good. Honorary shout out to the bean dip they serve alongside the standard chips and salsa, that stuff is fire. The chef that day, who I assume is the owner was super cool and friendly and made sure we liked our food and said goodbye as we left. Not a lot of places are so personable anymore and it was appreciated. Going to have to try those fajitas next time! read more

Went on a Friday night with my friend around 7. We were seated right away. The server brought chips with salsa and beans for dipping. I got a Cadillac margarita on the rocks and a small enchilada platter. The server was friendly and the food came out quickly. The enchilada sauce was a little sweet, which is not my favorite, but it was decent and was a good value at $11.95. The drink was very good. I have been here several times over the years and the food and service have always been good. There is always plenty of seating and the restaurant and restrooms are always clean. read more

I went to Si Amigos Mexican food for the first time, just to encounter really bad food. My daughter ordered a COLD campechana which is supposed to be COLD, they brought it HOT with only shrimp. Not to mention that I went to ask for a hot sauce that the Server forgot to bring, and I overheard the server say mmmm I was just over there. I am a server myself and this kind of comment is just not acceptable. Not to mention that she charged us for the extra chips that she offered and the two tortillas that were supposed to be complementary. Overall bad experience. Don't recommend this place. There are plenty more good authentic Mexican places to go, unfortunately, this was one of the few places open that day. I should have noticed from the beginning what a bad place to eat since it was pretty much empty. read more

The food was amazing wish I took a picture but I couldn't resist after the first bite! Had a wet burrito w mole and the most authentic mole I have had here in Reno. Very friendly and fast service.

Si Amigos - Sizzling Fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

From the outside I wouldn't have expected it to w such a bright and warm place. This was a great place for dinner with friends. There space out the tables and the staff all wore masks and gloves. There are pages of options to choose from on the menu. I went with a regular combo, taco and chili Chili Relleno. They tasted delicious. I ate everything and washed it down with a Sierra Nevada beer. My friends all agreed, it was a good choice. One of them got the Mole Poblano and it looked so good. I asked for a taste because I had never tried mole before and was intrigued by the chocolate sauce. Very nice taste, it reminds me of Christmas for some reason. read more

Wow! So me and my friend stumbled into this place and we do not regret it. I've never been to a Mexican place that gives free chips and bean dip but that's a match mad in heaven! The music was pretty groovy and the decor was cool. As for the food, I ordered a enchilada combo and it was a lot of food for the price. Spanish rice, beans, and an enchilada just for $8. It was quite tasty. Our waitress was very nice and refilled our waters. After I paid and left I realized I left my card at the restaurant. Thankfully they put my card in a safe place so I picked it up with no issues. Thank you again! read more

Friendly staff but food was flavorless and overpriced. Must be under new ownership, because this used to be one of my favorites.

We met up with some family for lunch here, wanting to try a new Mexican place. The server was friendly and we got our order pretty quick, although we were only one of two parties at the time. The shrimp and chicken fajitas were good with a decent serving of guac and sour cream which I like. The rice and beans were ok, not much flavor. The chips and salsa were decent, and I did like the bean dip they bring you as well. Nothing incredibly wow so with so many other options, I'd probably be more inclined to try another new place or go to one of my fave Amex places. read more

Really yummy shrimp and fish tacos too. IT WAS SOOOO YUMMY! This will be a regular spot for sure. read more

We hadn't been to Si Amigos in quite some time and arriving at 4:40p on a Sunday afternoon we were greeted by a paper sign pasted to the front door saying that due to staffing shortages the restaurant would close on Sunday's at 5pm. I was hesitant to go in, but we entered the lobby area and asked the Manager (I believe his name was Omar), if it would be ok if we came in. He said yes, but I suspected some hesitation in his voice, but none-the-less greeted us with a smile. We couldn't help to notice a female server who was nearby at the time, who grunted softly, something to the effect of "oh great" which made us all feel uncomfortable like we were the last thing she wanted to see; luckily Omar served us, which was appreciated. I can tell you the the food we ordered was good, very flavorful and prepared well. The tortilla soup was served in a huge oversized bowl which Ron enjoyed and cheese enchiladas were delicate and in a tasty red sauce. Denise had chicken enchiladas and a chicken taco combo and I had the chicken fajitas. While we enjoyed our meal we rushed to eat because and check out our ticket in less than 35 minutes from the time we entered. There was no mention of drink refills or dessert, but that was actually not expected nor desired. We actually wound up going elsewhere for dessert. I'm actually on the fence about returning anytime soon, but will say that while not a great experience Omar was very friendly and the food was good, so despite the tension from the time of day, if you go be sure to lookout for closing time and steer clear of it. By the way while eating we noticed thru the window that a number of other parties of people approached the restaurant and turned-away as well as someone who was looking to call in an order... read more

While driving around after my haircut, I craved tacos. There's a spot almost right next door to where I get my haircut but that wasn't the food I was jonesing for today. My go-to spot was packed for lunch so I kept going until I said out loud in the car, "let's go see Omar!" The man whose name was blurted out in my car is the owner, proprietor of Si Amigos. When I arrived, I opened the door and saw Omar sitting at the bar, eating lunch. I said, "Omar!" He was startled but happy to see me. His restaurant is chock-full of family recipes so choosing one item, in particular, wasn't easy. I saw molé enchiladas and ALMOST went with those but I wanted tacos. I ordered the three Al Pastor taco plate. The server offered chips and salsa and of course, I said, "yes, please." After chatting with Omar for a few, my food arrived. I was super hungry so I knew the food wasn't going to stand a chance. Boy, was I wrong. By the time I made it through most of the chips and salsa, two tacos, and all of the rice, there was one taco left. Omar said, "you can't be done. You still have one left." I said, "i really want to eat it but I'm super comfortable right now", so I got a to-go box and made sure to bring it with me when I left. The meat in the tacos was incredibly flavorful, the corn tortillas were absolutely perfect, and the rice they serve is SO close to my grandmother's recipe. I felt like I was a teenager again, back in her kitchen, listening to her and my Grandfather have a conversation. The atmosphere in the restaurant is great, the staff is really friendly, and the food ...oh man, the food is on-point. They have a killer tequila selection including a chipotlé tequila designed for a Bloody Maria. I'm not saying that I'm looking forward to enjoying one of those when I'm hungover but I'm also not going to turn away the drink if I'm not hungover. All in all, today's stop was most definitely 10/10. I look forward to going back there soon. Thanks for taking the time to read this review. Most importantly, thank you for taking the time to eat the food they make. The more we support the Mom and Pop places, the longer they're around. Cheers to you! read more

Si Amigos - Three Al Pastor tacos will fill you up while leaving enough for leftovers. - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Naw in for my birthday meal recently and remembered why I enjoy this Mexican spot so much! Right off the bat, our waiter was friendly and helpful and super attentive to our needs. We ordered some delicious cocktails including a Vampiro, which was super refreshing with just the right amount of spice. I love the uniqueness of serving bean dip at the table along with your salsa. It really elevates the chips and salsa experience and their bean dip is really smooth and creamy. I got the So amigos Especial with chicken beef and shrimp served with this maxing butter for dipping. I wanted to drown everything in that butter. It really elevated all of the meats. Accompanied with nice fluffy rice and more smooth beans this was the total package. Definitely a good option for Mexican food in Reno although some of their authenticity may be lacking in a few areas. read more

What a joke. The place was empty. We were the first two people there. I ordered a burrito. Meat beans cheese lettuce and rice only. Very simple. I got a rice burrito with a couple pieces of meat. I told the server he took my burrito back and o. Top it had WET ( watery) lettuce tomatoes andvless then a teaspoon of cheese. I told him i was alergic to tomatoes. And it didn't have beans. He took it back. When he came back the 3RD time with the wrong order I totally gave up. This man was absolutely clueless. To make this more funny 2 more couples came in. ( this place was a ghost town. And now i know why). The other table made tbere order. When ut arrived i head the man say it was supposed to be shredded beef not grounf beef. When the server returned with the order it was ground beef AGAIN! Heres a tip for the server WRITE IT DOWN. AND 5 dollars for flat soda really ?50 dollars for soup, the wrong food and flat drinks.

I totally recommend the steak fajitas, but im told the enchiladas are awesome as well. They are made with a peanut sauce and are supposed to be the best? Next time, its going down like that.

Si Amigos - Fried Ice Cream - Mexican Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Well it would have been great to be able to try this establishment! Too bad I didn't get past the chips and salsa! My sister and I came in on Christmas Day for a nice meal and super ready to leave a huge tip to the kitchen and staff for being open on a holiday. Upon being seated we waited for about 5 minutes to order drinks, ice tea... easy peasy, and were given iced teas and an annoyed smile. Then the real waiting started... for almost 30 minuetes we watched as the staff was seating new guests, taking their orders, brining food out etc. We were trying to be polite and not flag down the servers but I did make eye contact with them each time they walked by and gave the "i have a question, help me" look and not once did anyone stop to ask what we would like to eat. Its sad to say but we were the only two non-hispanics in the entire restaurant and the only two that were visibly being ignored. This might just be a coincidence but if was definately enough to kind of put a wrench in my Christmas. When I finally did make contact with someone they were off putting and acted like we had done something wrong just by coming in there. I went up the bar and offered to pay for my tea and leave. Oh well, thanks for the tea but I won't be coming back to eat. The staff was smiling and pleasant to everyone else in the establishment except my sister and I. read more
