The spot always have great Mexican food. It's always a nice regular atmosphere in here. The male server we had was ok, but wasn't the best.

My goodness, this food was phenomenal. The chips and salsa are addicting, if you aren't careful you can fill up on those before your food comes out. I had the pollo loco chicken plate and it was delicious. Also tried fried icecream for the first time. Two thumbs up!

It was a Wednesday night at 8:30 pm and still hadn't eaten yet!! I'm rolling solo, and I needed a place where I could get good food at a later time and wouldn't feel awkward without a wingman. So I pondered a few places, and Aguacates came to mind. I'm no stranger to this place, I can easily say it is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants due to the portion size,price, and above all ....the taste!! Also, the decor is bright and festive, though it isn't A huge restaurant it has a big personality!! The first and my favorite dish at Aguacates is molcajete!! It's 4 meats with veggies and cheese served with salad, rice, and beans in a sizzling clay bowl. I've had this dish at other restaurants, and I feel they do it best ! I've recommended this dish to many other people, and they agree!! However, during my last visit, I was craving a quesadilla. The waiter, who was absolutely awesome, recommended I get the Chicken Fajita Quesadilla. I really love this dish, full of flavor, stuffed, and most importantly, cheesy !! I'll definitely order this again!! So please check this place out and don't forget to grab a margarita as well!! They have a great collection of tequilas!! They recently opened a 2nd location in Blasedell, which is bigger and offers more seating.

Since throw isn't a huge spot, we did have to wait at max 10 minutes for seats at the bar. The crispy nachos and salsa were brought to us almost immediately. Our lively bartender took our drink orders and gave us time to peruse the menu, I ordered the chorizo and steak tacos (3). Didn't take too long for us to get our food but they forgot to bring out the accompanying rice and beans, which I didn't get until I was packing up my to-go bag. The food was delicious and the staff were nice. It can get pretty loud but it was tolerable. I'd have to scope out the scene a bit more as it took a good while and more than a few circles around the neighborhood to get a parking spot. Portion sizes were adequate for the prices. I'll definitely be back soon!

I was very surprised to see the ratings for this place! This was honestly the best pollo con crema I have ever had. Sometimes with Mexican restaurants it will just be quest and chicken. But this was so flavorful with a bunch of other stuff added. The drinks were good too, definitely a little pricey. Our server was the best ever! We came on the day of the eclipse, so it was super busy. However, she was the sweetest person, and everyone at the table agreed. Since this place is right on Elmwood, I would totally come back a agin for the pollo con crema alone!

My wife and I went here for lunch with our daughter a couple of days ago. Got seated right away and was promptly asked by the server what we would like to drink. After perusing the menu while munching on chips and salsa, we ordered. Our lunched came out fairly quickly and all were quite good. The place is Mexican themed, so clever decorations including the backs of the chairs. Glad we stopped here for lunch.

We headed downtown initially looking for a brunch spot and found a lot of places were closed on Sundays. Thankfully, this spot was open. We were seated right away, the server, and the bartender were very nice. We ordered a standard margarita and a spicy margarita. Both were very delicious and very large. For lunch we did a chimichanga with rice and beans and the steak fajitas, both of which were good. Chips and salsa were great. I loved that the salsa was not chunky and had good flavor. The restaurant wasn't that busy, great Spanish music is always a plus. Overall was fast, friendly service, food came out pretty quick. Great prices too for the lunch options.

Finally made it over here for a dinner with some friends and what a great spot to snag some Mexican food right on the Elmwood strip. It's a smaller sized restaurant so seating is relatively limited. We had a table of 4 on a Friday night around 730 and the wait was 25 minutes which was not bad at all. They take your number down to call you when the table is ready so no need to stick around if the wait is excessive. Staff was friendly and responsive! Chips and salsa when we sat down and the waiter even gave us refills on both. Food came out nice and quick and was delicious. Ordered the jumbo burrito which was the perfect amount of food. For drinks they do have a lot of specials. Went with the shot of tequila and Modelo pony for $7. Overall I would say very quality Mexican food for slightly above average pricing. Worth the price!
