Was here for the first time and the service was great. Loved what they did to remodel from the restaurant it was before. We had margaritas and they were great. Food was just mediocre, cooked well but lacked flavor. Will definitely go back and give them a second chance.

This is not a spot that we frequent and have been here a handful of times. The food is good and is your typical Mexican restaurant as far as food goes. The service is just a step behind their competition around town. We have never been impressed with the staff and have always been left waiting for something. Not saying I wouldn’t recommend this spot or their food, just be prepared for a little more casual pace of service and maybe them forgetting something.

The food was great! Went outside my normal choices and tried the Molcajete Maya on suggestion of the waitress. It was very good as was everything we ordered! Will definitely be back! The salsa is also top notch!

The food is amazing and the portions more than generous. However the service was slow at best. We waited about fifteen minutes after getting a box for our leftovers, to get our check.

The best Mexican resturant in Ames, very delicious food, very welcoming staff, very clean place. My wife and I enjoyed so much out there, we ordered Pollo Loco, Mojarra, Guacamole Maya and Mango Margeritta. The flavours of the food were amazing. If you wanna try good mexican food, go to this resturant. P.S. Don’t try EL Aztica.
