Wow! I was beyond stoked when my folks suggested we have dinner here during a visit. I can't…read morerecall what used to be in this building but I've definitely been in it before over the years. It vibes like an old house turned into a restaurant. The menu and cuisine is so similar to what you can get in Texas, that's a more authentic vibe than most of the Americanized stuff you see littered through the deep south. I believe I had ceviche, which was amazing and a HUGE portion. I also either had a stuffed avocado or mole chicken, I honestly can't recall. But all that we had was delicious. This is a place where you can have both authentic cuisine that's also clean. Very clean eating if you desire. I was so happy to have this option in town. Sadly, we haven't been since but I'd not turn this down if ever suggested. I hope the locals appreciate what they have in this!

Now chips and salsa on point as always best on the Mississippi Gulfcoast in my humble opinion! Our server was amazing and provided top notch service she handled the 25 people we had in our group flawlessly she was attentive and kind! The ambiance is unique to Aztecas and is always nice, they had live music playing that night which was cool, although it was a bit loud inside so if you have young ones or cannot handle a higher level of noise then you may want to pass!

Update: They added a salsa/topping bar which includes…read moredifferent salsas, toppings like radish, onion, cilantro, and lime.

And it would be a shame to lose such an authentic spot in a Mexican food desert.

Not the food or atmosphere in the least but the service well sorry there is no other way to say it but it sucks. Not because it's busy still 2 servers and a manager but the server we got well needs some training or major help. Shouldn't be left on tables by herself. If this was my first visit I can't say I would be back. She has serviced the table next to us about 5 times in a row and NEVER once stopped by our booth literally right next to the other one. But because this isn't my first and I know better than believing this is the norm I will be back but if this server is mine again I will leave before I order.

But let me start with the blue margarita...a liquid favorite with blue curaçao. Went with the "medium" 20+ ounce but they do offer a large (60oz, just sayin'). The chili relleno wasn't crisp and didn't have any sauce but the poblano pepper was tender and the cheesy filling good. The beef taco hit the spot, even though there's no special seasoning, it's just an average taco but something I've really been wanting lately and it didn't disappoint. Just lettuce, tomato, and shredded cheese in it, but tasty just the same. Our server forgot my quesadilla and what she brought back, as you can see, looked more like a large soft taco, but it worked. There was too much food so I took the quesadilla home for dinner. The shredded chicken was very flavorful and the cheese melted, but not a lot of it. My brother ordered my usual, the shrimp zacatecano and it was delicious, as always, and they don't scrimp on the shrimp! Our server was good, but not great. She was polite but did have to be reminded about things (like water) a couple of times but once you did, she got it right away. The host who seated us was very friendly and funny.
