What People Are Saying About El Azteca
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – The only things remotely Mexican about this popular spot are its Corona beer posters and its Nortena polkas. During the warmer months, this cantina becomes a roaring party courtesy of its substantial front patio. Fast, friendly and consistent, El Azteca pumps out all the enchiladas, chalupas and burritos you'd expect. Stick to the bulletproof Americanized favorites, including the combination dinner with its hard-shell taco, cumin-laced ground beef enchilada and molten chile relleno.

I Love El Azteca! It is one of my guilty pleasures and I just adore their food! Not to mention their sensational margaritas! I think I have tried just about everything on their menu as I frequent there at least twice a month. some of my favorites: Fajitas, (all of them, steak, chicken, and shrimp) Tostagucs, Chile Rellenos, Burritos (they are a meal in itself) And the tacos are terrific too. Try the soup if you want something light, and the tostados are quite good too, I am not really a salad guy, but the tostados are how I do salad! The cheese dip is addictive and the service is excellente! Why aren't you there right now? I am!
- Pros: Awesome food
- Cons: They close :( (they should be open all of the time!)
