Felipe Mexican Restaurant

We haven't been to Felipe Mexican Restaurant and thought we'd give it a try. Service was prompt and friendly. Warm chips and two salsas (one spicy/the other mild) were quickly brought to our table. Water wasn't far behind. My wife ordered the Los Cabos Special and I chose lunch fajitas. Both dishes were served piping hot. My wife's shrimp were ok. Barely any seasoning. And a smaller portion than similar "Tex-Mex" restaurants. My steak fajitas were also standard fare, with one piece of grizzle mixed into the order. Flour tortillas were on the smaller side. The side dishes for the fajitas were the usual crisp lettuce, guacamole, rice & black beans. Felipe Mexican provided a decent lunch. Particularly for the price point. But nothing really stood out. It has a ways to go before it becomes a favorite.

Felipe is one of the better Mexican restaurants in Louisville. I spend a lot of time traveling in Mexico for business. There are simply foods I love to eat in Mexico that I cannot find here in Kentucky. Tacos De Guisado, Tuétano, Posole, Arrachera, Picanha, and so much more are just not something you find in Kentucky. Most of what we have here is Tex-Mex and that's just fine but I am always on the lookout for that authentic Mexican food. Felipe's is one of the only places where I can find really tasty posole and Molcajete.The staff there is super friendly and amazingly fast. The ambiance in the restaurant is very typical of any common American-Mexican restaurant but Felipe's is always clean. I do recommend Felipe's over any of the other popular Mexican places in Louisville because they do offer a few other items that are not on those other menus.Give them a try and you won't be disappointed.

Delicious as always! Great service and decorated for Valentine's Day. Had the ceviche this time and Al pastor taco. Never been let down trying a new dish in this place.

This was the first visit for our family. We were in the area to visit a family member who had surgery and this restaurant is near the hospital. Plenty of parking and we had no wait for a table.The menu offered a variety of items and slightly different than other Mexican restaurants. The queso and chips were standard. Watch out for the hot salsa - it is fiery! The kids hamburger was lackluster. The fajita tacos with chicken wasn't bad but I wasn't crazy about the mushiness of the vegetables. This spot is good for groups. Plenty of tables for small and large parties. Service is a bit slow. I'd come back if someone asked me too but otherwise this isn't a spot on my recommendation list.

This is one of my fav Mexican restaurants they have such a cute patio which is so nice. The Al pastor taco was soooo they are going to be my new go to!

This is a busy and lively restaurant. Television on all the walls. Has a very nice bar area. The whole staff is nice and always checking on you. The food was excellent and plenty of it. Too full to have any dessert. My burrito was close to a foot long and stuffed with steak, chicken, mushrooms, peppers, and onions. My wife's 2 burritos were very tasty as well. We will be going back with friends.

I was pleasantly surprised by Felipe's. Enjoyed the ambiance and decor. Both the mild and hot salsa were really good and flavorful and chips were fresh. I had the jalapeño cucumber margarita and highly recommend along with the carnitas.

Ever since, several years hence, we forgot to make Valentine's reservations we've been going out for Mexican to celebrate the holiday. There are many reasons this is an excellent idea: no need for reservations, typically not busy, so many menu options, delicious. Weirdly, most people don't seem to want beans and spicy food on Valentine's. This year was no exception.We dined at Felipe and the entire experience was glorious. We were greeted enthusiastically and immediately seated at a table festooned with a cheerful Valentine's balloon. Within one minute of being seated chips and two different salsas arrived (one with predominantly tomato-esque flavor, the other more peppery - both delightful). Our food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering, appropriately hot, and delicious. My meal included:- Bean burrito (just the right balance between flour tortilla and beans, topped with yet another unique salsa)- Mexican rice (excellent flavor, crispy/chewy on the outside, softer on the inside)- Refried beans (I'm a sucker for these, and Felipe's are definitely top 5)As we were leaving, our server asked my spouse, "May I give the lady a gift?" After receiving approval he untied the Valentine's balloon from our table and gallantly presented it to me. Best. Valentine's Day.

This place is kid friendly with kid meals The food was great and fast savers and vary friendly i can't give my take on the adult beverages since I don't drink them stop by and try them out
