    Chicken quesadilla which looked better than it tastes
    Jeffrey R.

    Nice people. Friendly staff. Place was clean. I'm not going to lie. The quesadilla tasted very bland, the adobe chicken was ok, not great. The entire dish lacked flavor. I don't have much to law to say, this place had more positive reviews than almost anything else in the area. That doesn't say much.

    Tofu nachos
    Nicole D.

    I don't care who, where, when, why... I'm a Willy's girl. Always have been. Some locations are mid-tier, but when they get their seasoning right, their tofu nachos are the best thing to share with a friend. I like to add pretty much everything and touch it off with freshly squeezed lime. At this point, I've lost count of how many times I've been throughout the years, but it's quick, cheap, and the portion sizes are amazing. Love me some Willy's nachos!

    I'm glad I gave this spot a chance finally. The food was really good. I tried their new Willy Philly which was exceptional and the fact that you can add your own ingredients makes it so much better. The only thing I can't understand is why all of these Mexican places are making the watery queso and not the thick queso they used to make. The queso wasn't too thin but if you were to pour it on something, it would come out really quick and not slow. Other than that, the food was really enjoyable.

    I decided to try this location after having Willy's catered to my old job a few years back and remembering how good it was. Stopped by after class on a Monday around 3 pm. No one in line and only a few people eating inside, not busy at all. I got the bowl option with Adobe chicken, rice, beans, cheese, lettuce, pico, black olives, cilantro, & sour cream. The bowl didn't look like a good portion size at first but it was a lot more food than what it looks like! Everything was fresh and tasty, definitely stepped up from moes and chipotle. Price was around $8 I think it was worth the price. The interior is clean and modern with plenty of seating. Parking lot has plenty of open parking spaces.

    Steak bowl, double steak.

    I've eaten here a hundred times atleast. Way better and fresher than chipotle or moe's, truly a wuality controlled operation. The quality of the meat and cheese are A1 Great staff. They could easily the the Chic Fila of Mexican.

    In the Burrito bowl hierarchy, Willy's always was pretty low on my list. So much so that the last time I visited a Willy's was about 10 years ago! So when this new Willy's location popped up, I thought i'd give them another shot. I ordered myself their Adobo chicken bowl ($6.95) and added several of their toppings that ranged from corn salsa, to red sliced pepper, to pico to guac (only topping that is NOT free), All burritos or bowls get free chips, though I got very few. Seems like Moe's gives a lot more. A salsa bar sits next to the drink station and has four types of dips at any one time, ranging from mild to mouth watering hot. Their flavors were still exactly the same. Willy's has a more watered down flavor/taste to me, and it seemed as if everything needed a little salt to it which I decided to not add. The chicken was tender, not chewy and was cooked well, but flavors just weren't there for me. Located in the new restaurant strip off of duluth highway, next door to the likes of Burger Fi or Jason's Deli, parking is very much a premium here for lunch, and you may have to hunt to find a spot. Exiting out onto Duluth highway can be tough depending on where traffic is, because this area is typically congested. End of the day, if you love Willy's flavors and haven't been in a while, you're in luck with this location. If you're like me, and aren't really a fan of those flavors, you're ALSO in luck, because there's literally a Moe's next door, and a Chipotle across the street to cover your burrito fix if Willy's cant. All the same, this is a great addition to the area, because options are always great!

    2 ground beef tacos, chips, cheese dip, guacamole, chipotle medium salsa and habanero medium salsa.

Not at TLH, but PERIOD. It was that good. (I'll have to think about it a bit, but it's definitely in the top 5.) My single complaint: it wasn't hot. It was warm, but not hot. Didn't make it any less wonderful, but I would have liked it a little warmer. The meat was perfectly cooked and lean. The green sauce was extremely tasty. The rice was nice and buttery. The green beans with onions might actually have been the best thing on the plate, or maybe I was just in the mood for sautéed green beans. For my appetizer, I picked esquite, which is basically Mexican street corn (elote) cut off the cob. It came "separated," meaning that they didn't mix it together; I got a HEAP of corn, some mayo, some crumbled cheese, and chili powder, and mixed it to my own favorite ratio. I didn't get a picture because I was too busy eating it. Server was very attentive and I didn't have to wait at all for anything.

I had the BEST MEXICAN dish I'd ever had and I'm still talking about it weeks later. I did not spend time reviewing the menu. I told my server what I wanted and I got exactly what I requested and it was TOP NOTCH! Started with rice, covered with queso, then grilled chicken/steak w/peppers and onions and more queso. The meat was grilled to perfection. The steak was tender. The portion size was so much I took the leftovers back to my hotel and ate it cold for BREAKFAST! I was not wasting a single bite. If I pass even close by this place while traveling in the future, I will be stopping back.

I was good with just the salsa that came with the chips. I ordered a flan to go and I would give that a six out of 10. I don't ever have to have that again. The bathrooms were clean and really smelled nice. Whatever air freshener they are using in the women's bathroom is a 10 out of 10. Parking here is free and is first come first serve. There is a lower parking area available if the top level is full. The parking lot is shared with other restaurants and businesses in the same complex. I would definitely come back here to try something else recommended by the staff.
