We never enjoyed plaza azteca years ago because of the entrees we would order. But a few months ago we were looking for authentic Mexican tacos. We decided to come here to see their options and it has been addicting ever since. Being carnivores this location provides great protein options without being forced to have carbs such as beans and rice. They also offer gluten free corn tortillas which is amazing. And offer a dish that is all protein with no carbs ! That is so hard to find. But not here. Service is always so great. Ambiance is well maintained and comfy with an open space. We look forward to coming here and come too often lol but so worth it on top of having excelling customer service.

Great service. Great tacos. We go every other Tuesday for Taco Tuesday $1 tacos. We didn't get the tableside guacamole this trip. It is excellent as well. We were in a hurry to get to an appointment but had 35 minutes to kill for quick lunch. Melissa enjoys the crunchy tacos with chicken. I prefer the ground beef on two crunchy shells and on two flour tortilla shells. They are simple. Meat, cheese and we drizzle salsa from our salsa and chips. Will see them after all the Christmas running. FELIZ NAVIDAD

Plaza Azteca - The Aztec Square... It's been nearly a year since we last visited this establishment and there has been some good changes... The upholstery is new(er) and it remains a clean place for service... The staff was responsive and the food was standard American Mexican fare... Our utensils were short and had to ask for more, the single red salsa bowl had remnants of sour cream on the inside edge... The waiter quickly replaced it with a little sarcasm, "red salsa with no side of sour cream"... Kudos on his quick retort to having it replaced... Love the flavor of the salsa, cilantro and spices were on point... The chicken fajitas were cooked as requested, well done and not over done... Love the cut slices of chicken verses the squiggles cuts we see elsewhere... The rice was delicious and fresh... The menu is extensive and the prices are fare $$...

Walked in, seated right away. Tiffany was our fantabulous serverHuge menuLoads of gluten free items clearly marked! I ate so well, I needed a nap :)The flavors were absolutely delicious, nothing overly seasoned. I had the chicken choro and oh my word, from first to last bite it was one of the best Mexican meals I've had in forever! The non gf people loved their food as well. Unique salad and chicken quesadilla 3 dinners and drinks all under 55$ wow!Huge portions, yummy, and my glass of tea was never empty. Tiffany suggested my dinner, was so friendly and quick.

My husband and I came here on a suggestion of drinks from my daughter and sister, plus it was near our hotel. There are a few Mexican restaurants in the area and it seemed like most of them had a wait but we were able to be seated right away. The layout is open and roomy which is good for large parties. They have a wide variety of food and drinks on the menu so you won't be disappointed. As you wait for your order they bring you chips and salsa. I ordered the Azteca salad and my husband ordered steak fajitas with a drink called trash can. The salad was very plentiful but IMO was dry. Not sure if that's because it contained a lot of chicken which is a good thing but if not cooked just right chicken can get dry. I did add salsa to it but that didn't help much. The salad doesn't come with sour cream and it's 2.50 to add a very small cup. The steak fajitas came out blazing hot (picture Chili's x 5). The only complaint my husband had was there was only 3 tortillas which means you run out before you finish your meal. I'm sure you can order extras but it was too late. He did enjoy his drink. The service was good, could have been better but it was pretty busy and I feel our server did the best she could. Would we return? It's possible can't rule them out.

Atmosphere: The restaurant was very open and light inside. It was extremely crowded which is great for business but it reduced some of the comfort in the dining area. We opted for the bar so we could sit next to each other and watch the tv's. They had some lower level ESPN channels on that had some obscure sporting events like a Corn Hole tournament and an Ultimate Tag tournament. It was relatively clean, I didn't notice anything special about the cleanliness. Food: The food was great. The menu had a few gluten free options and they specified vegan and a few other allergen concerns. I got chicken tacos with a corn tortilla. I typically don't like corn tortillas but this one was pretty good. Lots of other great options on the menu as well.Service: Nothing to note. Our food took a really long time but it was also very busy. I would go back but try to find a less busy time to go. Maybe during a week night.

There were four of us eating on Taco Tuesday and loved every bite! The place was packed but service was still quick. The waiter was attentive and pleasant. The restaurant is well lit and decorated nicely. You will not leave hungry because the portions are huge! We eat Mexican often and there are quite a few Mexican restaurants in this area but we will certainly add this one to our rotation! Delicious huge portions!

The food has been very good in years past, but the restaurant has changed substantially since 2023 (& not in a good way). One of the Bartenders is clearly not a "people person"; snapping at customers, & is obviously not suited to work in the service or hospitality industry. I personally overheard her call a customer "Rude" for having the audacity to ask for a napkin. I also noticed that this restaurant location is not as clean as it used to be. It's possible that I was there on a bad day, but there are many other good restaurants in Elizabeth City to try. I do not recommend this particular Plaza Azteca. Try the another Plaza Azteca location or the other Tex-Mex place down the street.

Ate here on 6/20/23 for dinner. Seated right away. The chimichanga with shredded beef was delicious. My husband had a steak burrito and he was very happy with that. I also had a Miami Vice adult beverage and that was really good. The waiter seemed frazzled and I watched him turn in circles several times It took me asking 7 times to get a shaker of salt. He looked at my empty drink glass 4 times and I was finally able to get a drink refill. The salsa tasted like taco sauce from a taco kit. It also took asking for our check twice before we were able to pay and get out of there.
