This neighborhood market, grocery store, resto and family owners have been around Defiance for a…read morelong time. My first encounter with this local gem was over twenty years ago on my first visit to this Ohio town, and it's still around with improvements, enhancements and is still great overall! A terrific family run business. From its jam-packed with a wide array of dry and can goods on grocery shelves, great meats, extensive local baked goods, and a much renovated and expanded restaurant and really nice Mexican-style bar! If you're in town and are in the mood for an ice-cold Dox Equis and/or Jalisco style Mexican cuisine, this the place for you! Their goodies run the gamut from an incredible Pozole to Grilled Chicken delights, to delectable Burritos to mouthwatering tacos, some terrific, refried beans and incredible chips and salsa! I think they are one of the top five Mexican food joints in the Defiance area. Oh, and do your groceries while you're at it. Buen provecho ya'll.

Stopped in recently and honestly it was just okay. The food was pretty mediocre and the service was…read morereally slow, even though the place wasn't that busy. What really bothered me was the surprise 3.5% surcharge they add if you pay with a card. That includes debit cards too. I didn't see any signs about it and wasn't told until the check came. At that point, I didn't have cash, so I had no choice. For anyone wondering, surcharges on debit cards aren't allowed under Visa and Mastercard rules. I get that places are trying to cover costs, but it should be clear up front and within the rules. I wouldn't have stayed if I knew about the extra fee--or I would've stopped at my bank across the street to grab some cash. Just a heads-up for anyone thinking of stopping by: bring cash.

Conveniently located just off the highway, definitely worth the short detour. Service is always fast, friendly, snd efficient. This restaurant is huge!

We find ourselves frequenting Aztecs often now with friends, everyone has been as pleased as we are. The quality of food is Excellent. Great menu items to choose from. The service is fast and friendly. We are tickled to have it so close to home that we could frequent often! We Highly recommend giving them a shot!

They could at least have a note at tables that menu prices are outdated and inaccurate. We were taken aback when our bill for two adults and a toddler, no soft or hard drinks, was close to $40, when we expected $25 based on menu pricing.

ALL of this bc I dared to ask for what I ordered . My mistake . I was told to sign the check ($13.37) and "there's the door" . "Don't come back , there are other restaurants to go to" . As a male voice SHOUTS from the back , "SHUT THE F@*# UP" . Such a terrible experience , on a Friday MORNING , for a SCHOOL BUS driver at 11:30a . UNACCEPTABLE . I tried to explain . Manager said she wasn't going to listen . Denied her behavior . I tried to say my job was to order , eat and pay . Their job (At a minimum) is to provide what I ordered . Not make it seem like it was my fault "When you order it that way , the kitchen changes it to something else." Ordered a 1 TostaGuac (w/no tomato / no beef) and 1 Chicken tamale . Food came , at first glance it looked good . Noticed there was no guacamole on my tostada . A different waitress came to the table , I told her that there was no guacamole , she said "tostadas don't come with guacamole" I said , I ordered the TostaGuac . She walked away . Then , the female manager comes . All of this .... Over guacamole . The guacamole I ORDERED . Why ?? Why couldn't the MANAGER say , "Oops . I'm sorry . Must have been a misunderstanding in the back . I'll get you a new one." No . That did not happen . Instead , I am told to leave and not come back . I am so sorry for asking for guacamole . I'm so sorry I wanted a new tostada . I should know that my requests are outside the norm for a Mexican Cuisine restaurant . For future I will remember to just accept what I'm given , to shut up and "just sign the bill" . Then "theres the door" . So , I dare not step foot again . I have been put in my place and told other restaurants are more accommodating . So sorry for bothering them at lunchtime . Persona non grata .

We meet for lunch but my partner and I stopped for dinner tonight , so yummy! We both ordered the shrimp and scallop fajitas and a pitcher of frozen margaritas. Our waiter was polite, efficient and an all around good guy. Food was so good! Neither one of us could finish so we got to go boxes, plus we had both finished our tortillas and ordered more before we decided we were full, those went in our boxes too. We did order queso to go with our complimentary chips and salsa. Of course we finished the queso. I cannot recommend La Fragua enough, whether it's dinner or lunch, it can't be beat. Prices are good too! We will be back!
