What is the $7.99 mother of all breakfasts? I dont see it on any menu?

Any item from the BREAKFAST menu is 7.99, just make sure you mention that to your server

Food was bland and awful. Dont know english well and made me and my friends feel uncomfortable. Deff not worth what we paid.

I have no problems there.I like the food and the staff. So , don't go back.

Food is great... service not so much. Ordered queso, came out cold... very sad. Had to ask several times for water to be refilled. Hopefully just a bad night.

It must have been a bad night! Because I have always had excellent food and service there!

This establishment is solid. Colorful.Clean.Service was attentive, quick and efficient. I ordered the Mexico City Burrito.Nicely prepared and with a side of rice I had more than enough to enjoy while the and will be enjoying leftovers tomorrow.Given that this is Memorial Day weekend, there wasn't a crazy amount of people eating in...That's their loss.

pretty good Mexican food... would have liked if the fajitas came out sizzling, butter they were very tasty... sat at bar, there was no bartender(on a Friday night? ), servers alternated and made their own drinks, also air conditioning appeared to not be working it was very warm

One of our favorite restaurants on the south side, and an easy pick for dinner on a night off from work. At this point, we're on a first name basis with most of the staff, and they always treat us like friends more so than customers. The food is very well prepared and presented, and they have a wide selection of dinner and breakfast options. The interior is large and well-maintained, and there are several dining rooms and a cantina-style bar. The menu is somewhat Americanized, but it nonetheless has delicious Mexican food (and also from other Latin countries) that never fails to satisfy.

I have been going eating at this restaurant for 15 plus years. My family and I have always loved Americo (the owner) & the way he chooses to run his staff. But within the past year, it has gone down hill. The staff are always changing tables so you never know who your actual waiter is. They don’t admit that there is any fault when then mess up- they actually get defensive for sending something back. There is a lack of eye contact & when we try to get their attention, we seem to be ignored. The staff was arguing in front of guest. There is just a huge lack of professionalism & simply just running this restaurant in an orderly fashion. It makes my heart sad to see the way the staff is running out customers.

Been coming here for years now and this is hands down the best authentic Mexican food on the south side. Yes we've had our bad experiences here, but every place has their bad days. As an Iraq war veteran, I love the fact that the owner's son is a U.S Marine and there's a picture of him hanging on the wall. Great beer prices and the salsa is made from scratch and delicious. I'm very particular about my salsa too. Love this place!

Been going here for about 11 years and up until the last 4 months would give it 4.5 but here lately it’s been subpar at best. Didn’t have a set waiter/waitress it rotates. That made ordering take awhile. Drinks from the bar took half way threw the meal to show up. When they were ordered at the same time. The food was browning on top as if it was under a heat lamp for awhile. Worst part about it was the owner of the place sitting at the table next to us and didn’t even care that tables weren’t being served. Overall since they having been getting rid of the staff that’s been here longer it’s been all down hill.

This family has put quite a bit of time to not only developing their menu by broadening it but also giving back to the community, making their restaurant look really good, and always having specials available so that you as a consumer can try new things. Great Place, Great family, Great business.

The person who put the Pollo Cremoso on the menu deserves an award. Awesome stuff. Huge portion. Prompt friendly service. Everything you could ask for in a strip mall Mexican place. Warm chips, above average tasty chunky salsa. Taco salad was pricier than other similar places but larger.

Had one of the best meals at Mexico City Grill tonight. The service and quality of food were amazing, and at a reasonable price!! Great authentic flavors, huge pieces of shrimp, good portion size. We never get dessert but had to try and it did not disappoint. This is our new favorite Mexican restaurant.

After taking a bite, I got a very bitter sensation. I saw that I got some charred remnants into my food. I asked the waiter to get the manger. It took her a while to get her even though I explained the situation to the waiter. Once the manager got there she began to deny any possibility of charred food. I offered her to take a clean spoon and taste the food. She walked away and never came back. It seems the manager is in denial or did not care. I hope this was an honest mistake and not signs of an unsanitary kitchen.

I love this place and I often eat and do carry out 2-3 times a week. I will say that here in the past few months it seems to be short staffed....and that happens in restaurants from time to time. I love their queso....I wish they give me the recipe (hint hint lol) ,😍 it is SO GOOD.

The food last night may 28 /19 was not as good as has been... the waitress took order..made notes.. confirmed order, and still was wrong.. I asked her to reread the ticket she would not.... does she still get a tip? Should I reward for not not doing job? I did tip but not as much..... that was my last time there 2 dinners with water and still $29... there's better places than that!!

One of our top Mexican places, especially when the food comes out piping hot. The staff is very friendly too. Super clean place always. They do need to make sure that their queso is not thin like milk.

The best Mexican we have had in awhile. To put it in perspective we went to “The Best Mexican” in Las Vegas the El Dorado Cantina, and this place blows the doors off of it. Food, margaritas, and music.

Worst food I ever had! The food was stale and had a bad smell to it. When I told the waiter explained that "the food was made early in the morning and they served the same thing by reheating the food." The food instantly made me sick to my stomach. Oh! How honest about the nasty food you served me! Thank you for your honesty though. Now I know better never to come back to your pathetic restaurant. Extreme disappointment.

It was good overall. We got a jumbo house margarita for $8. I got the lunch special arroz con asada for $7.99. The food was good, a bit cold when we got it, like it had been sitting in the window. The salsa could have had a tad more spice in my opinion. Overall good experience, we had a super nice serve. Would definitely go back.
