Before I jump into my experience I will share that we have been to two other popular Mexican restaurants in Saratoga Springs in the last month and what jumps out is how far above the Mexican Connection is over these others. Now for the eval! The best share is that the FOOD quality and value is tops at the Mexican Connection. Outstanding quality Mexican dishes where the kitchen appears to truly care about how the dish looks as well as how it tastes. We have had other experiences where all the food looks similar, all plate presentations are the same, and the food itself far overpriced. Not the Mexican Connection. IF you are hungry you will not be disappointed. Service also was excellent. Look for Makayla (not sure I spelled her name correct but she has been there 10+ years!) Outstanding customer service, friendly, helpful, and made our evening out even better with good conversation. Not disappointing also is the fact that we spent LESS at Mexican Connection than the other two Toga competitors. This is a locals hangout so don’t be surprised if there is a little wait on the typical busy evenings. Highly recommend! Check out the “BIG TACO” and the “CHIMICHANGA” in the photos!!!!

We had dinner here last week with another couple to celebrate one of their birthdays. I love Mexican food and have been to many of the restaurants in the area, but had not been here in several years.
It was a freezing cold winter night, but the restaurant itself was quite warm and pleasant. The host seated us promptly and did not ask us for our whole party to be present first. Our server was very friendly and kind as our friends were running a bit late. He kept us in chips and salsa and waters while we waited. During the meal, our friends noticed the soda they had ordered wasn’t quite right and he quickly went to change it over and brought them fresh glasses.
The restaurant itself was warm and cozy. It is a smaller space and the tables are a bit closer together, but it was comfortable enough. The noise level is as you would expect. We could hear each other and were able to carry on a conversation.
Finally, the food. The salsa that was brought with the chips was really good; one on the milder side that I preferred and a 2nd spicier version that my husband and one of our friends enjoyed. I ordered the Fiesta Combo Platter with shredded beef and red sauce for the enchilada, shredded beef for 1 taco, and upcharged 1 taco to fajita steak. All of the food came out at a good temp with the cheese melted nicely on the enchiladas. The red sauce was also quite good. My single note is the lack of seasoning on the meat itself. Any bite of shredded beef that did not have red sauce with it lacked flavor. It was cooked perfectly, just without flavor of its own in my opinion.
Altogether, we had a nice time out with friends and and an enjoyable dinner experience. Not my first choice for Mexican food in the area, but a solid one nonetheless.

We lived in Colorado for 4 years and there were many very good Mexican restaurants where we lived. The Mexican Connection is a gem.
My son and I met there for dinner and both of our meals were outstanding. I had the fish tacos and he had the tamales. The young man who was our server did a great job and once we ordered our food, it was out in 15 minutes. And because it isn’t in downtown Saratoga we didn’t have to search for a place to park. I would highly recommend going there.

I ordered online for a specific time and showed a bit early. The kitchen was able to jump on it. I grabbed a pint while I waited and staff was friendly and attentive. The place was packed but I saw a lot of people smiling. Kudos to the staff and atmosphere. Food did not disappoint. We will definitely revisit.

So I’ll take some blame for coming on a Saturday night, Labor Day weekend at dinner time. BUT the service was awful. It took 20 minutes to get our first round of drinks and it was a drop and run. Another 15 minutes to put in an order for appetizers. We were here for an hour and a half before getting our next round of drinks – including water – and another 15 for our meals. In total we’ve been here more than 2 hours and now we’re waiting, again, for the server.
Overheard him telling another guest: Well, we only have 3 servers tonight.

We are local and eat here often. Heather (aka Michelle) is our favorite waitresses. She always makes sure I have a fresh
margarita and they are the best in town! She always warns us that our plates are hot. Food is good. One time, I ended up with both sauces on my enchilada… And it was awesome, I now order my enchilada that way every time! Thanks Heather for my extra saucy enchilada.

The food was hands down the best in the area. Our waiter Dylan was amazing, he help pick a dinner for a very picky eater and they loved everything about the Chimichanga. Next time you are looking for great Mexican food stop by and ask for Dylan.
