After we got our drinks, the service slowed down a bit, not so much that it was a problem, but still noticeable.
My margarita, no salt, on the rocks was delicious, George’s Captain and coke was a very good pour also.
Chips and salsa are complimentary. One salsa has a very slight sweet taste while still being tangy, the second is fairly Warm!
I had beef Tamales with rice, beans, and guacamole. The sauce was also meaty and masa not too thick.
George and 1 of our friends each got taco salads. There was a good balance between lettuce, tomatoes, meat and cheese. The sweeter salsa made a nice substitute for salad dressing. Our other guest had a beef burrito. It was packed full of tender, seasoned beef, topped with cheese, lettuce and tomato.
All of our portions were big enough for 2.
It seems that there’s good reason that they’ve been here so long. We will definitely visit again.

Food is straight up—not that good. Atmosphere and service are both great! But, the rice wasn’t soft, the white queso was gritty/thick and had no chile seasoning, the enchiladas smelled and tasted like store bought El Monterey stuff. And the salsa.. so not good—no cilantro at all, and doesn’t taste fresh/juicy. Draft beer was cold and good. Strawberry Margarita was lackluster and not very good, cough syrupy. Our waiter was great though, awesome and timely service. Food was just dang near trash, farrr from authentic. Might I say white washed Mexican food.

Very disappointing. Had not eaten here in several years, food had little or no seasoning, queso was bland. I had the Fajita Taco Salad & it was 80% lettuce with maybe 5 pieces of chicken.
Will definitely not make a return visit!

One of our favorite places to eat. We’ve been eating at Little Mexico for over 45 years! I’ve never found the Cheese and Onion Enchiladas with the gravy anywhere else and they are delicious. We love the beef hard shell tacos too! Excellent service every time we go. We drove approximately 60 miles just to eat there and it was well worth it! Delicious!

Little Mexico has been one of my favorite places to eat for over 50 years. It tastes exactly the same and that’s what I love about it the most! I can count on going in there after 15 years like this visit, just as delicious. The bartender 35 year employee, can use educated on how to be a little friendlier and have less of an attitude problem!

I love their taco plate and the hot salsa they give for the chips! I also enjoy their burrito plate that you can order with a grilled steak substitute and green chili!

We have been coming here since 1976. Love the unique play on Mexican style food. We always have the green chili,( also one to go) hard shell tacos, and enchiladas(cheese and green onion for me and beef for hubby with the green sauce. You can’t beat the texture of the chips and the salsa is very flavorful.We will continue to stop by anytime we are in the area. Great service every time!

The biggest reason this place gets a 5 star is i am a chip snob. Chips are the foundation of the fat meal you are about to digest. Before your entry even shows up. The chips are a reason to comeback. They were perfect dippers. The table salsa comes in mild and hot. I dig a chopped finely thick salsa. Hit our buttons at a high five.
White cheese dip was decent. The portions are big for the price. Not my favorite Mexican food I’ve had but those chips will get us back every time.
