I have been here twice and both times have been lovely. Service could be a little more attentive but the food is incredible and satisfied that homemade mexican meal I crave. I especially love the Molcajete platter as you can eat the meats with rice and beans or even make tacos out of them. The meat is always amazingly flavored exceeding all my expectations!

Truly no notes when it comes to Viva Cinco De Mayo!Each time I eat here, I switch up my order because the food is just that good. This time around I ordered the Bistec Chilaquiles. The corn tortillas were perfectly fried and smothered with their homemade green sauce and queso – couldn’t ask for a better brunch.

The best! Food is fresh and made to order chili rellenos! Sometimes can be too busy so it slows the service but always worth the wait. Salsas, tacos, enmoladas, it’s all good.

I had a doctors appointment at the Medical Center on New Scotland, so we were looking for a good place to eat close by and we are so glad we found this little place. Great service, great food and great authentic atmosphere ! We highly recommend the Fajitas and Strawberry Lemonade! I also have never had better Flan than here! So creamy!

Myself and 3 friends ordered delivery from here. As the only vegan in the group, I ordered a Veggie Chimicanga and specified without cheese. There wasn’t any vegetarian section and hardly any veggie dishes at all. When the food arrived none of it was labeled. I was handed what everyone believed was mine. When I bit into it, it was clear it was meat…disgusting. When I got my correct meal, I bit into it and it was smothered in cheese between the veggies. There was absolutely no way around it. I couldn’t eat my meal at all and had to give it to a friend. Therefore, I essentially paid $20 (my portion of the total) for small sides. Overpriced and not respectful of dietary differences. I will be exploring Mexican restaurants elsewhere. It would do them good (especially being located in a diverse city) to explore the many Mexican dishes that can be made vegan to give people some options.

I love this spot!! I get the shredded chicken tostadas everytime, because they are SO GOOD! You should definitely try out their sangria as well, I got the white sangria this time, and it was perfect for summer. My son is usually a very picky eater, and he ordered the chicken quesadilla and devoured it.

Excellent place to eat mexican food. We were a party of 3, walked in & took the last table available. Ambiance was quaint, looked family oriented, good music, positive vibes all night! Food was excellent, margaritas hit the spot & our server was so nice & attentive. We ordered the quesa-birria tacos, chicken tacos & a birria quesadilla with rice & beans. Excellent food, perfectly seasoned, and their hot sauces are delicious. Chips & nachos were good, the margaritas tasted like a premix solution but they hit the spot alcohol wise !!! We definately will return and I will go for the biggest margarita as they offer them in 3 sizes; I had the medium size this time around. Street parking available…

All of the food was very very good but the asada fries were above and beyond, I will remember those fries for the rest of my life. Portions are large, especially for the price but flavor does not suffer. The drinks are even big, if you get a lemonade they bring you a mini pitcher with a straw. Everyone was super friendly. There’s a few tables inside, a couple outside, and a bar you can sit at. But for real, get those asada fries.

Came across this gem while getting my haircut at Dukes next door.

On my first visit I was pleasantly surprised by the attention to detail in such an unassuming place. The decor reminded me of Mexican eateries in L.A. and San Diego. Nothing like this really in Upstate (Cantina in Saratoga is a fusion type place and El Mexicano in Albany is genuinely traditional, with a slightly American twist). It’s almost like a taqueria from East L.A., which is a pretty great thing!

I’ve been here several times since my first visit and keep coming back because the food is so authentic. They’re the only place I know of in the capital region that offers tortas and sopes and a pretty decent Tres Leches cake. They keep it as close as traditional as they possibly can with much success.

Every time I’ve stopped in I am greeted very warmly. The service has always been attentive and friendly.

I think it’s under appreciated since it sits in the middle of a busy street. If you blink, you might miss it, but keep your eyes open and stop in for some good ol fashion Mexican eats! You won’t be disappointed!

One of the best Mexican restaurants in all of albany. This is a great neighborhood Hangout to have very good Mexican food. They have a wide selection of authentic Mexican drinks. They have a bar with some specials like sangria. They have a wide variety of appetizers and give you complementary chips and salsa with your meal. The horchata is very good. The large is almost a pitcher size. They have traditional and non-traditional Mexican dishes. I had the tacos which were excellent. I also had the elote which was good but very rich. The servers are very friendly and the atmosphere is festive.
