Xochimilco Restaurant

The food here is excellent -- my mother has been coming here on and off for 50 years! And they didn't given me any issues with my Service Dog which I greatly appreciated. It was kind of a noisy place, so if you have guests with hearing issues this may not be the best option. It is very dim with pretty twinkle lighting.Food -- my husband ordered Combination #1 and absolutely loved it. I ordered the chicken burritos and the beans were smokey and the burritos weren't packed with unnecessary ingredients. My sister ordered the chicken chimichangas and they were so crunchy, but thin and the fried bits aren't overpowering. My mother ordered the cheese enchiladas and they came out screaming hot!Absolutely zero complaints or critiques on the food.Service -- our server brought our food to us, but seemed like he had somewhere else better to be and didn't seem to know the menu very well, particularly when I went to order dessert (sopaipilla)Bathrooms -- they were handicap accessible, however the toilet in the ladies' room was clogged and looked as if it had been that way for several people -- I alerted staff and they did close the bathroom promptly.

Yuk. Basically gringo food. The inside of the restaurant is dark and dreary. Go to a more authentic restaurant.Or Taco Bell for the same food at a cheaper price.

I haven't been to Xochimilco in years, mostly because of the time I went and ordered tacos and they told me they didn't have onion and cilantro and instead the tacos were basically just Taco Bell tacos-- and mediocre ones at that.But this review is being posted because they keep ignoring our requests to stop parking their giant luxury truck on the sidewalk. There is some tremendous entitlement in thinking you can just block an extra foot of the sidewalk with your $80,000 car and not suffer any consequences because why would we ever write tickets here. If you love Roma, Texas so much, why don't you move there instead of blocking our sidewalks here in Detroit?

Cheese!? If cheese is extra say that when asked. I have came to this restaurant for decades and I never paid for cheese on an enchilada; but understanding the current times I know prices have gone up and I'm 100 percent okay with paying for the price of what I order when going out to a restaurant. I politely asked the hostess is cheese included with an enchilada ( as it has been in the past) the hostess tells me that the cheese is included. I get to my destination and cheese was not included (see picture) it is sad. I am pleased to pay for my order, tip the hostess and or waitress. Update: I call and give my complaint. The first party I spoke to made light of my concern then simply transferred me to another party that had NO idea what was the nature of my call. I explain my concern to the party that stated their name was Emilio; they stated that "some" people don't want cheese on an enchilada. I advised him that I had a cheese conversation about the cheese on my enchilada and it was NEVER requested to be no cheese. This party didn't apologize or show any issue with the incorrect order. He did say I could bring the food back and he would have it remade properly as ordered or "work something out". No concern for my travel time, my time, or gas. But...nproblem bringing the order back but is the order being reused or simply thrown away once viewed? I can't see what is being done in the back. My concern is to bring it back are you sending out food to different patrons that return the food due to incorrect orders. No thanks or the remake I will politely request a refund. I'm returning the food two days later and we shall she how it goes. Keeping all posted as this issue is developing.

First let me tell you the place was so dimly lit; I had to use my phone light to see the menu. The waiter got our order wrong; I ordered flautas but received enchiladas, my daughter ordered a burrito and got a soft sell chicken tack, which ok whatever we were hungry, but the food tasted terrible. The rice was not thoroughly cooked, some bits were hard, and it just tasted like Mexican rice out of a box. The beans were terrible. The food did not have any flavors. We will never go there again! There is so many more authentic places to eat in southwest Detroit.

Beware Vegans & Vegetarians!Everything other than the guacamole, flour tortillas and beans is fried in beef tallow (lard). Even the tortilla chips aren't vegetarian.

i'll make it quick, every time I go here there's cockroaches visible walking on the walls or wherever, once I was here in a cockroach jumped on the waitresses hand and she screamed, I will never eat here again this place is disgusting!!!

Stable in the southwest area. Some of the items are Tex-mex, but they have traditional Mexican items too. So best of both world. I also like their mural at the parking lot.

Poor service, dirty and below average food. Wont be back. Plenty of parking and now I see why. No steaks on menu.Outside building area is just as dirty.

After dining there, my credit card company sent me a fraud alert saying my tip was 44%. I left 20% and always write out the tip and total so there are no mistakes. I called the restaurant 3 times before anyone would talk to me and then they said they would call back but didn't. When I called them again, Amelio said he couldn't find my receipt but would also call me back.....he didn't. I called back and they hung up on me. My advice, don't use credit if you go there. I don't know how many people just let it go, but I am adverse to being cheated and was treated horribly when I tried to resolve it. My CC company reimbursed me but I will NEVER go back to this place. I hope the extra money was worth it.
