“ Great food and excellent customer service. ”
“ Excellent food, no complaints here. They said that they didn't make the rice yet for the day, so they checked if they had extra rice from the previous day, which they didn't, so they substituted potatoes instead (which is actually what I was hoping for). The potato dipped in the refried beans was good. Prices were great, about 10-15 per person. The service was friendly and VERY fast. Be warned that while the waitress can speak a little English, you'll have to explain things slowly, or just talk in Spanish. Seems like they had the full menu (breakfast and lunch) all day, but the buffet starts at 10am. I got the Texas plate, but substituted chicken enchiladas instead of the default cheese enchiladas. Since we liked the food, we're looking forward to going back again to try the buffet eventually ”
“ I love Taqueria Mazatlan. Be forewarned though, if you don't love Mexico you will not love Taqueria Mazatlan. ”
“ Had a milanesa de pollo torta cubana. Really good torta. The green sauce they give you goes in with the kill. Mexican coke on ice with the mix, hit the spot. Arrived at 9:45pm, buffet did not look to good. Looking forward to try more on the menu plates. ”
“ You kinda are skeptical when you walk in perhaps it needs a little facelift but the customer service and the food surely make up for it. Great prices and you really get your moneys worth. Don’t judge a book by its cover and don’t knock it til you try it because I know I was impressed by the deliciousness. Thank you we will be back! ”
“ First time there and my family and I were satisfied with both the service and the food. ”
“ Every time we're headed towards Mexico, we always stop here. They do not disappoint. They might have a few busses outside during holidays, so it might be a bit packed, but it's a great place to eat. Would definitely recommend it. ”
“ Always a good place to eat as much as you can stuff your face haha. Only bad thing is they only let you get up to 3 bowls of menudo . Which is sad bcuz I myself could go for a 4th or 5th bowl sometimes on a empty stomach. But other than that is a good place with some good food ”
