Visiting friends in the area, we decided to do happy hour with a waterfront view last Thursday, aka Amigos. Not very crowded and reasonably priced, we ordered a couple of vodka cranberry cocktails, salsa, and guacamole to split. All were tasty. The staff were friendly too. A good go to place for happy hour - Amigos. read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - Traditional Guacamole - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

Tonight was one of the worst experiences we've had here yet. There were three of us and our friend ordered a steak burrito and wanted red sauce instead of cheese sauce. Wanted the rice and beans in the burrito. They came in the burrito however they put cheese sauce on it and then charged him for a side of rice ($2), AND a side of red sauce ($3.50). The burrito was small and cold. My husband ordered the Hawaiian tacos, again, cold. I ordered the chicken tortilla soup which we had here a week ago and it was amazing. Tonight it was awful! I told the waitress and she didn't seem to care. It had an off flavor and I was afraid to eat it. It was only 8:30 and she was basically rushing us to pay and leave. On our way out she actually said " I hope the soup is better next time"! It's too bad this restaurant isn't more consistent and that a manager isn't checking in with the customers. This place could be amazing all the time if properly run. read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - Steak Fajitas! - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

We had a party of 6 adults eating dinner at Amigos Mexican Cocina. All six adults agreed that we would not come back to this restaurant and wouldn't recommend it to anyone else. Flavor was lacking on nearly every meal. One person in our party ordered steak and cheese and their meal ended up being $15 dollars for only steak and cheese smothered over it. The quesadilla supreme was a joke. It lacked flavor and there was really nothing great about it. Our waiter was kind and attentive. read more

We had a table for nine today. Wait staff was friendly and fast. Food was timely, fresh, and delicious. Good price point. Couldn't have been more pleased. Definitely coming back when were back in Chattanooga. The patio area right by the lake is fantastic. read more

We always enjoy going to Amigos. The food is high quality and the service is always courteous. The views of the lake are also enjoyable. This time I got chimichangas and a tamale. They were delicious! read more

We had 10 people in our group, everyone was served but my husband and me. I guess he forgot to order our food, when we did get the food my chicken taste like it was cooked days ago. It was hard and tough as well as just warm. The waited didn't give us time to finish speaking before he was on to the next person. The tomatoes were rotten also. Never eating there again. read more

Amigos is real good. I Used to hate this place this was because I was a picky child kinda still am definitely not as much but then if found there chicken quesadilla so good not to mention how good the queso is 4.5/5 stars would recommend It by no means deserves less then a 4 star read more

My server was rude as hell. Not giving a bad rating just because of this, because i don't think he realized how much of a dick he was being. Still gave him a $10 tip on a $10 bill just hoping maybe someone can talk to the guy. Chip. Just trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. I know his job is hard at times and I don't want to add to that, but some things you Just shouldn't say out loud bud. read more

You know, even being accustomed to SoCal Mexican food, this place is pretty good! The atmosphere and proximity to the harbor alone is worth sitting and enjoying a basket of chips. Don't bring Abuela here, I'm not saying it's a hidden cocina in East Tennessee but you won't be disappointed. I'm staying over on a boat trip and had the chimichangas yesterday, and today decided to rock a cheeseburger for something different. Both trips I was immediately greeted and provided a dump truck bed of chips and accompanying salsa. The margarita passed muster and they even know what a Cadillac is- bonus points. It's fun, give 'em a try, ask if there's a table on the rear deck.... keep the food expectations reasonable and I'm sure you'll enjoy your visit. read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - Arrrrgh! Chips ahoy - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

service was good but later on i found a ROACH in my rice it wasn't small either. the place itself it good service got atmosphere no clue what goes on in that kitchen but ill never be going back. read more

It was a warm evening with the world just beginning to crawl back out of pandemic haze, and Amigo's was like a bowl of chicken tortilla soup for the soul. 5 pm can be a long wait nearly everywhere, so we braced for a Saturday wait more like on Mother's Day. Pleasant surprise when our "30 minutes" turned into 15. We were seated and eating endless bowls of tortilla chips before we knew it. For now the menu is online, which is a creative solution to sterilization. You'll find plenty of the classics you'd expect with a few twists and surprises. Decent prices and large portions meant almost everybody went home stuffed. Could we help it after eating 5 bowls of chips? It's not our fault; no one can eat just one (bowl). My choice was the chimichanga to break my string of 500 in a row enchiladas supremes and what a night to do it. Could have been crispier but that would just mean unhealthier. Add rice and beans and even not-cost-extra guacamole and it was big! Others ordered fajitas (good), hard shell tacos (great), gluten-free (gluten-free). The one downer: for a Mexican restaurant the food took a long time to come out. Apparently the head chef was out this night (hope all's well and it's just a head cold). We aren't complaining and they managed to pull off a lot with things still tender coming out of quarantine. This meant we pictured two Central HS new grads back there on YouTube looking up "hard shell taco". On the bright side, when in doubt bring more chips! We never had an empty bowl before two more came. The cheese dip appetizer was good too, and a welcomed change from the 8 salsa bowls we polished off. It was a group of 7 okay, don't judge. So probably the longest time I've spent in a Mexican restaurant in a while, but with good friends there, time flew. Details: easy access by land or sea. Plenty of parking and most of the time dock space to hop off for dinner. So drive somewhere else, park, take your boat, dock, eat, float back to your car full. I know my friends will return; they practically own stock in this place. And we'll accompany next time we're in town. read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - a bowl of chips - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

We went on a Friday night. The Food was good. The service was quick! The beer was cold. Clean restaurant.

Amigos is a great place to get okay Mexican food, but the fact that they have their own dock and outdoor seating booster my rating from a 3 (for food) to a 4 (ambiance). I've been here several times but mostly get take-out. They have a full bar and are right on Harrison Bay, so you can't really go wrong if you're looking for a relaxing place to enjoy some dinner and cocktails with friends. Great for a celebration as well since they can accommodate large parties. I went with a group of 14 women and we had great service. read more

This review is for takeout. The food tasted fresh and I loved how the entrees were nicely laid out in their to-go containers. It was not slopped together. Their chips and salsa are delicious! Chips are fresh and crispy, salsa is nice with just a bit of heat. Flavors in the food aren't greasy like some other traditional Mexican restaurants are. Their rice is also a little different from most other Mexican restaurants - delicious, moist, has veggies, and good flavor! Nice portions, menu selections, and fair prices in this economy. Will definitely be back. Keep up the good work! read more

Why oh why would you change the salsa recipe? It was perfect now it is harsh and very unappealing. I guess because you are making it cheaper now. Sigh. read more

This place is always good. Huge quantities of food, service is always excellent here, no matter where you sit. Patio is always excellent to sit there. read more

0 stars. Tasteless food. Dirty restaurant. Definitely will never eat there again. One of the dirtiest restaurants I've ever been in. Plenty of help standing around that could be cleaning. read more

Our spot when we are on the pontoon and stop for lunch HUGE portions and great service Get the patron margarita. Get the pitcher Thanks Connor for excellent service for this crazy crew read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - Outdoor seating ! - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

Average Mexican fare. I had 3 Hard Shell Tacos and a side of beans. The tacos were good but they arrived scattered all over the plate. Had to reconstruct them to eat them. The beans tasted like they just came out of the can and were cold upon arrival. My $10 Patron Margarita was so-so. Chips and salsa were good. Salsa really had a kick! Service was good. read more

Had lunch yesterday. Not sure why we were not seated out front, there were plenty of tables. We were seated on the left side. Not on the corner, three tables back from the corner. We could see the water. We have a boat so we've been by there many times. We should have said something but we assumed they had split tab,es between two waiters. The waiters should have been able to split tables on the front deck. Our waiter took our order and showed back to bring the tab. The food was good to very good. Hopefully, we can go back by boat some time. From what I could tell, there wasn't a lot of places to tie up for larger boats. read more

Traditional pork tacos are amazing. Simple and delicious! Servers are always nice and attentive. One of my favorite places to enjoy good food with friends. Atmosphere is perfect for a vacation like experience less than 4 miles from the house! read more

Been a regular here since they opened since I live down the road. The servers are not always good, and there are always a bunch of teenagers standing around doing nothing. The food quality is hit or miss. East Ridge is the best location for food and service. If you want good service, sit at the bar. Eric & Christina are great! The girl that bartends on Friday night is horrible & ignores us. They are not staying open later for summer hours like they did in the past, and that's been disappointing for many people. You can't beat the view & the margaritas are good. read more

Call before you go because sometimes they close before 7pm even on Saturday nights. Hours are not consistent, they just close whenever they feel like it. The food is usually pretty good and I'd suggest eating outside because it smells like cleaning chemicals inside...which is strange because it doesn't look like they ever clean. Don't go out of your way to eat here, but if you're close by, it's better than anything else in the Harrison Bay area. read more

This is my place to go for Mexican food in Cleveland! The Pollo Loco is orgasmic. The dips are also superb, but the cheese one is to die for; quesadillas are fantastic; even the steak is great, with an interesting melange of spices; and the rhythmic shake-shake of the bartender's drink mixing adds to the charm of the place. Sometimes they are busy but you'd never know it from the staff, they always have the best customer service, from the manager to the servers and make sure there is a clean place for patrons to sit. read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

The wait staff is friendly and the view is pretty if you sit outside. The food is ok. It's pretty average Tex Mex style food. The quality has been hit and miss. Sometimes it is good and other times the food tastes like it has been there a while. read more

My family enjoys eating here. Very good food and friendly staff. Beautiful views of Harrison bay. Definitely suggest eating here.

Still hanging in there with the one star or less. Food is usually descent but the ever changing wait staff continues to get worse and worse. The kid hostess on 8/3/21 needs some serious training. Also the waitress I had outside on the deck was friendly but obviously has had zero training. This place needs an overhaul. Too many untrained and unpleasant staff. Get some training and a dress code would do this place wonders. Get it together!!! read more

You can never go wrong here my friend, no pun intended! Decided to stop by here for mother's Day with the entire family and I definitely was not mistaken. I always forget about this location as it is one of the coolest but rather remote. we started off with some really good half-price margaritas and then we had nachos chicken cheese and you know the rest all the good stuff that you can always get at AMigos! enjoy a nice walk by the water after you're done to walk some of that good damn food off afterwards. Make sure that you make memories here, eat slow and love big! You won't regret that I promise! read more

Great place to eat! we love going here and love the fajitas. Service is about the same as most places.

This is a fantastic spot to go to when the weather is nice. Sit out on the patio overlooking Harrison Bay. Amigo's food is fine for what it is, basic Americanized Tex-Mex. Chips and salsa are good, burritos are ok. It's not authentic Mexican food, but it's tasty and fine. I like some queso dip but I don't care for it on all of my food. Service is pretty decent and like I said, it's the location that makes this place great. read more

Slow service. Avoid this restaurant at all costs. I have never had a restaurant charge a fee for "credit card transaction fee" paying with a credit card. I was shocked. I don't any immediate plans on returning to this restaurant! read more

One of my favorite places to go in Ooltewah. Beautiful scenery, live music at times, and love their locos tacos!

Food was tasty, service prompt and atentive. Cheese and chorizo dip highly recommend. Delish.. Carnitas was scrumptious. Will definitely be back when in the area. read more

not dog friendly or boater friendly but yet there on the water. Food is OK service is so so. Not recommended by most in the area. read more

Amigos Mexican Cocina - Please explain this...??? - Mexican Near Me - Harrison, Tennessee

Love the Abuela Guacamole with the chips, salsa and cheese dip as an appetizer. We have not been disappointed on any entree we order. Highly recommend. read more

The restaurant is so simple, yet so cute. One of my favorite things about eating Mexican is the chips and salsa, so I always look forward to that first taste test and it was delicious. Lots of flavor and a pinch of Jalapeño spice. They have $4 margs from 3-8pm! Our meals were hot & yummy, service was quick! read more

Amigo always has great food. However, this location has some of the worst customer service. The restaurant was mostly empty and we stood in the front lobby for nearly 15 minutes. The hostess walked past one time and said "I'll be with you in a minute." This location frequently takes over an hour to get you your food. read more

Hmmm... when the truth needs to be made, well it's about this place. Great location and needs to be freshen up, but what a location. On the bay! That's the highlight and not much more after this. We get seated quickly and get our drink orders. We order steak fajitas, three taco combo, and carnitas. I've enjoyed Mexican food most of my life, and I know Mexican food. The salsa was like marinara and not like any salsa I've ever had. It did have a nice touch of heat though. The server serves the fajitas, the maybe 3 taco and the carnitas. The 3 tacos were not the dish delivered along with the carnitas. As I was eating the first so called carnita aka carne asada, lol, the server comes and tells me it is not carnitas I was eating and takes my plate away! I'm like what just happen, lol. But hey I got to taste their carne asada taco which was ok. So we wait for the proper dishes to show. They show and not what I expected of carnitas. Not crispy and no flavor. Greasy. The 3 tacos were just ok. The chicken did have a good flavor. Overall this place reminded me of a chain type restaurant. Below average food and service for sure. Not one to revisit. read more

Nice and courteous wait staff. Food was to our table qUick and was very good, plus overlooks the water.

Only one basket of chips. Cheese dip served cold, meal served cold. Only fast item received was the wine. Not worth it - check out somewhere else and spend your hard earned money elsewhere. If you choose to eat here -- ask to not be sat in the bar. Terrible! read more
