Cocina Azteca Grill

Whenever we're feeling under the weather, albondigas from Cocina Azteca always hits the spot! It's so flavorful and comes in a generous serving packed with tasty meatballs, carrots, zucchini & rice on the side. When not under the weather, we typically get their green chicken enchiladas or their Al pastor nachos. Also, don't miss out on their avocado salsa and homemade tortillas!

The flavors at this Mexican spot are really something! The tacos are bursting with freshness and just the right kick of spice. I was particularly impressed by their homemade salsas--each one added a unique flair to the dishes. The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for a casual night out with friends. However, the service was a bit slow during peak hours, which is why I can't give it a full 5. Still, overall, a delightful experience worth trying!

I'm actually in a shock that I haven't written a review for this place. My husband and I have been coming here consistently for a couple of years now and we always love it! If you want consistently good Mexican food, you don't have to search anymore. Cocina Azteca is the place you need to be! You would think the food in a small strip mall is meh...but the food is bomb.com! We have eaten here for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and even sit in bed talking about how we're craving "the Mexican food down the street". When I make Mexican food at home, I always walk here to grab beans, rice and handmade tortillas. When I come home from work sometimes I grab bean, rice and cheese burrito. It's so simple, yet so cravable and satisfying. Their chips here are always fresh, the salsa is always tasty and fresh....I've had almost everything on the menu and you can't go wrong with anything! The only thing we haven't had is the buffet but we are going to try it soon! There are a few other Mexican restaurants within walking distance, and we've tried one....we were not enamored like we are when we come here. To top it all off, the owner and the waiters and waitresses are always super nice. This is home for us. You NEED to eat here!

I've always wanted to try this place and tonight was the night. I ordered online via Yelp and arrived to be greeted by a friendly staff member. He walked me through the menu and answered my questions. I ordered quite a bit to try a variety of things. Everything was really tasty and homemade. I loved the seasoned meats and beans and rice. The homemade tortillas were great too. The only item that was just ok were the enchiladas. They were dry. Overall, I will definitely be back! Thank you for the good service and tasty filling food!

Sour beans, diluted agua de Jamaica. I tried this restaurant about 4.5 years ago, went today with my daughter excited to have some good food. She ordered menudo and I ordered machaca and agua de jamaica. The jamaica was diluted with so much water tasted like water with sugar only, I told the lady and she suggested to change it for orchata. The machaca had some kind cook beef nothing like the kind use for machaca but I eat it anyway. Problem was the beans, they were SOUR, I told the lady and she did nothing about it. ‍ I understand things happened and maybe the cook didn't taste the food at the beginning of the shift, Apologies go along way too sad they don't care for what they're serving to the customers and when someone points something out it should be taken under consideration, as I was leaving I saw people leaving the beans on their plates as well, you would thing after being told they would stop selling them. Hope this doesn't happen to you.

I got caldo de res via Uber eats. They served it with 3 handmade tortillas, some rice, 2 lime pieces, and cilantro and onions. The caldo was very good. It was a generous portion. Good enough to have leftovers. I added both lime pieces green salsa and cilantro and onion and it was perfection. I got it cuz I'm feeling sick and it helped so much. They also give two delicious salsas. I've never had food here before so I will def be trying the other food they have.

Ok so this a a review based on me solely leaving the Santa fe springs swap meet . Watching 2 tribute bands amazing performance super hot chick singer which you already know . This is the spot to come for affordable pastor and carnitas tacos .The owner was involved which is a plus . Super easy quiet and content .Don't bring your loud ass vibes here eat and move on to the next venue .

The albondigas is amazing here as well as their handmade corn tortillas. The service is always great and they are very polite. Would continue coming here.
