Mexico Restaurant has received mixed reviews with some customers noting slow service, lackluster food quality, and disappointing experiences. However, others praised the friendly staff, delicious homemade dishes, and excellent catering services. While some found the atmosphere underwhelming and the burritos lacking in flavor, others raved about the steak quesadillas and the goat meat tacos. With exceptional food and accommodating catering, Mexico Restaurant remains a family favorite despite some shortcomings. The Impossible Tacos and homemade tortillas receive high praise, while the salsa and food quantity disappoint some diners. Overall, Mexico Restaurant offers a diverse dining experience with room for improvement.

Hidden little gem that has a ton of space, outdoor seating and a bar! Super clean burritos and tacos made with care.

So I came in through the back and the place seems echoey or cavernousThe decor is a Pepsi pink slash brown and deep red walls.
