Wow. Came here for a first date and they made it a very pleasant evening for my date and I. The service was amazing, the atmosphere was peaceful with a romantic vibe, and the food was amazing. My date couldn’t decide because everything looked so good. She had a filet mignon with mole sauce and shrimp and since she couldn’t decide between that and the lobster enchiladas I got that so we could share. Boy oh boy they were both amazing but the lobster enchiladas were especially amazing. The sauce was full of flavor and wasn’t too spicy. Definitely going back to this place again!

Amazing mole. I enjoyed the spice. The shrimp and filet mignon were fantastic and flavorful. Best mole amarillo ever.

Came here for lunch on a Friday afternoon. We waited a while in the doorway until we were greeted & seated, waited about 10mins to get our order taken, & another 30 for the food to arrive; It didn’t seem that busy.
When the food finally came it was in a sizzling bowl with a delicious boiling salsa yummy meat, seafood, cheese, avocado, & scallions. Tortillas were delicious & hand made, but be careful because only 2 came with that huge molcajete, which is enough food for 2 people. We asked for more tortillas, which we never received & were charged $6 for them. The prices here were outrageous for what it was honestly. But food was good, regardless. Though service could really improve.

I Love Villa Azteca! It is my favorite restaurant in Salinas. I Always make sure to dine here when I visit Salinas.
The dishes are so flavorful, they do a great job at cooking familiar dishes with unique tastes. The presentation of the dishes is also very beautiful and creatice. They have delicious drinks (alcoholic and non-alc) too!! I can’t wait to come back ☺️

After hearing numerous recommendations, I decided to give this spot a try. A tip for future diners: arriving after 6:30pm on weekends may result in a wait.
Upon arrival, I noticed the host seemed a bit new, but she managed to get my name down efficiently. Our server was quick and friendly, recommending a delightful appetizer with cheese and assorted meats, which turned out to be a great choice.
For my main dish, I opted for the shrimp enchiladas. While the presentation was impressive, the sauce was a bit overpowering, and the flavor of the enchiladas fell short of expectations.
Overall, the dining experience was pleasant, and I would suggest visiting this restaurant for those interested in gourmet Mexican cuisine.

My wife and i had a really good meal here after going to the steinbeck museum. I had the chile relleno and my wife got the chilaquiles. Both were really good.

This place is fantastic, fresh and home made. I got the beer battered shrimp tacos and they were great. Handmade corn tortillas, too. They were a bit spicy but the nachos with the fresh corn was amazing.
The staff are friendly and just kind and attentive. A great experience overall.

Fantastic Mexican food, extremely high quality at a decent price.
The steak I had was some of the best steak I’ve ever tasted. The rice is also perfectly seasoned, not a single throwaway flavor. Portions were decent as well but we still had room for flan!
Definitely want to make sure you get here early since the line to get in fills up pretty fast.

I drove in for dinner after seeing this place on the show, Check Please. We have some great spots in San Jose but I wanted to get out of town and try something new. I have to say this place does not disappoint. We started with the queso fundido and bone marrow- both amazing. The bone marrow came with a chili oil I’ve never had that was a taste sensation! This chili oil was a stand out for me. I’ve been to several different cities all over Mexico and never had anything like this. (For me it was delicious. Like Asian chili oil but Mexican style). The main I had was carnitas enchiladas which came out pink which threw me off and I couldn’t pin pont the flavor. (My guess is it was a beet sauce mixed with fresh cream) The chicken mole was good a little spicy from what I was told but I thought it was fine. The stand out main for me was the Mole Amarillo- the sauce (I think it was pumpkin) was awesome with the prawns. Try to get that dish with extra prawns. Definitely getting that next time. (Extra sauce, extra prawns please) For dessert, the table split the flan which was thick like cheese cake which I’m not a fan of. The second dessert was the tiramisu (GET THIS!!) this was light, creamy, tasty and another stand out for me. And last but not least was the flight of Palomas (Didn’t realize they were going to be full size.) very good and would totally get again. All in all a great time and can’t wait to come back.

Every customer counts—or at least they should. Unfortunately, today we felt like our family didn’t. We were never assigned a waiter, and it took an extremely long time just to place an order. While other tables received proper attention and service, we were consistently overlooked. It was disappointing and made us feel unimportant as customers.
