First time checking out this local mom & pop, family-owned spot in Apple Valley, tucked away off Hwy 118 behind a barber shop near Tao Road. The dining area is very casual--cute, cozy and homey without trying to be fancy. I was greeted warmly when I walked in, seated right away, and given chips & salsa that were delicious! I did the create-your-own combo with two tacos and an enchilada. The tacos were simple but good, and the green chile enchilada was super tasty. But honestly, the beans and rice were my favorite part--5/5 It's definitely more of a laid-back, neighborhood kind of place, and that's part of the charm. Good food, warm hospitality and that "feels like home" kind of vibe. I'd definitely come back! read more

Be ready to have some of the best Mexican food around. I took my granddaughter, Kim here for her birthday and we had several Cadillac Margaritas that were prepared with mint, orange and lime slices. Their chips were made fresh and thin with delicious salsa's. Their taco Tuesday specials are delicious with rice and beans. I also ordered the to-go special of 10 tacos, beans and rice with salsa for $35. I hope to return soon even though it was expensive. read more

Great food, Great staff. We drive out of our way to come here as we never have been diappointed. We have lived in the high desert for years and tried a lot of other mexican spots. Not one can hold a candle to Amy's. Everything is great and fresh. read more

Delicioso! El molcajete from Amy's Mexican Restaurant was superb. So flavorful. Beef, chicken, shrimp, cactus asado, cheese, salsa and +$5 if you want to add chorizo. I was so full but could not stop eating every bite was worth read more

We loveeee Amy's. I've been coming here since I was a kid & the service is great. Amy is so nice. My husband and I love the horchata and the chips & salsa! read more

First time here after hearing great things. It was a slow start but I think we got there after 3 tables just sat down (we were starving) pretty busy for a Thursday night. So it took a while for the food to come out, but i get it. There was alot of chicken in the enchilada and its one of the better crunchy taco I had in a long time. I think we'll be back to try more. The girl there was really friendly and did a great job handling all the patrons. read more

Food was just amazing. Just yummy. I love the atmosphere. Will definitely be back again.

Wonderful first experience here at Amy's. The painted ceiling and fun decor is inviting. This was the best Suiza Enchilada I may have had yet. The salsa was perfect, we all loved it. My 18 month old was in heaven trying to drink it. Yeah, she's a spicy one! My husband ate his entire carne Asada burrito and I finished my plate as well. My daughter had part of a quesadillas and French fries. Rice and bean were amazing! I'm used to Puerto Rican red rice but when I have Mexican this is what I expect. Delicious! We ordered Cadillac margarita with sugar. They came with salt, she forgot but they were delicious and actually the salt wasn't over bearing for me. I avoid salt as often as possible. My second one she got perfect and she brought my little one so oranges which was sweet. Honestly, the service was outstanding and from the talk of a couple tables; the server, was picking up for the missing staff on a busy Thursday night. She did fantastic and though I could tell it was a bit hectic, she handled it like a superstar and treated us like family in our short stay. read more

Heard about this little spot from a friend who works at the hospital close by. So glad I did. It beats Taco Bell and Del Taco big time. Since then, my husband and I have been there a dozen times. We have tried the Albondigas soup, Chicken Tortilla soup, enchiladas, chicken tacos, Salsa and Chips, Asada Taco- all absolutely delicious Server, usually the same one, is the best. She is friendly, beautiful, hospitable and always greets you when you arrive. I've always gotten my food to go so I can not comment on serving time and restaurant cleanliness. read more

We love Amy's! They treat us like family. They take pride in every dish. Little things like a couple chips between your taco and the enchiladas so your taco shell doesn't get soggy. Choice of red or green sauce on your enchiladas...both are great. read more

Food is great!!! The staff is always friendly would highly recommend them ... Taco Tuesday is the bomb

My family and I went here for my sister's 18th birthday. It was a great experience! The food was awesome and the workers were super friendly and efficient! Would recommend! read more

It's always an amazing experience dining at Amy's. The staff provides the highest quality foods and always welcoming with a smile. Definitely recommend the tacos dorados or pozole. Honestly you can't go wrong with anything here because the food is prepared with care and love. If you're in the area, this is a must try place! read more

What a hidden gem! When my parents told us about their favorite place, not going to lie but I was skeptical to say the least. But wow, this place did not disappoint! Their mango margarita was delicious and their refried beans were some of the best we have ever had. The beef taco was great, but I would skip the carnitas taco next time as it was a bit dry. I can't wait to go back the next time I'm in town! read more

The food is always delicious at Amy's. Service with a smile. It's a small place with traditional Mexican decor. I can't wait to visit them soon. read more

Wow, I tried to completely REMOVE my first review for this restaurant and it keeps saying "error" meaning I can NOT remove it. I certainly hope that isn't intentional on Yelp's part because I really respect yelp and that would be unfair to the business.....OH WELL :( Still, just IGNORE my first review completely! I had been to the restaurant for the very FIRST time and looking back was a bit overcritical and quite pissed off at all the other horrible Mexican restaurants me and my husband had endured trying to find a new "edible" Mexican spot. Sure, the tacos are small, BUT I have been to several Mexican restaurants and they were this size also. Chili Verde, a well-known chain has the exact same size tacos now and I gave them a not-so-favorable review also because of that! BUT for real....its not that big of a deal when the food and service is Awesome! Plus the tacos are Affordable. Since I wrote that review I have been to Amy's several times and it's HANDS DOWN the BEST Mexican food in Apple Valley!! :) The local readily support this establishment. Everytime I'm there the extra-sweet hostess is just casually speaking to a customer about their family or their weekend or whatnot like she is speaking to an old friend. The Burritos are massive and chips and salsa are always tasty and fresh! Boy, I sure WISH I could just remove my first review as this place has far exceeded my expectations of what a "good" restaurant is and Amy's has indeed graduated to me and my familys favorite place!!! Please give the family owned business a Try.... you WON'T be disappointed!! :) read more

My best friend and I were looking for a good Mexican spot this morning. This place is for sure slept on. We spent about $20 on both our food. The place is such a home-y vibe with excellent kind service. It's clean and a great hang out spot. The food was also excellent-- the carne asada was flavorful and cooked well. If I'm passing through here again I'd return. read more

The staff are all beautiful people. The fish tacos are to die for. The service is great. And they all make you feel right at home. I love you guys. Charlene Winfrey read more

Amy's is the best Mexican restaurant in the High Desert. The staff is friendly and treats you like family. The Chile Relleno are perfection as are the beans. The homemade ranchero sauce is the best you'll ever taste! Full service bar and Cadillac margaritas are hands down the best. read more

Want a GREAT homemade margarita that's NOT made with bottled mix and with a good amount of tequila? You just found it! Amy's is a little family owned restaurant. The place is small, only a few tables, but very clean, cute, and the employees are kind. Their food is made to order, so don't come here if you are starving and impatient. But if you do, you definitely want to go - it's worth it. The margs are delicious! They have crispy taco deal on Wednesdays, and they are GOOD! I read the reviews, and the people who complained, I just don't get it. Jen was so pleasant and welcoming to me and was personable and sweet to everyone in there. It seemed like they all knew and loved her. She was very sweet with me, and made sure I had everything I needed. I suspect the people who wrote crappy reviews were jerks about whatever was wrong with their meal, because Jen was wonderful - not only with me, but with everyone in the restaurant. But I've never seen jerkhood be an effective method of resolving a problem at a restaurant. I decided to disregard the bad reviews and try Amy's. I called in my order for pickup, the day before Thanksgiving, with a marg to go. It's a family owned place, small, casual, and I was expecting exactly what I got, just a nice weeknight meal. Not the best I've ever had, definitely not the worst either. The crispy shredded chicken taco was delicious and the meal was neatly packaged so that none of the food ran together, which I appreciated. A tasty meal at a very fair price. Their salsa was realllly good, and that mango marg??? Holy cow, it was fantastic. I will definitely be back. read more

Food was very good- better than some main stream restaurants. Tasted homemade. Margaritas were great and the service was excellent. Not too shabby for a small place- definitely will be back and possibly a regular. Hard to find good Mexican spots in an area so spread out. This is worth trying! read more

My husband and I moved to the high desert almost two years ago and had been in search of great authentic Mexican food but after trying several different places, we just weren't happy with any of the places we visited. After reading some of the reviews on Amy's , we decided to try it out without any great expectations. Let me just say that this was exactly what we were looking for and needed. The food is delicious and authentic! The rice , beans and salsa are delicious. My favorite dishes so far have been the chilaquiles and the huevos rancheros. The hot salsa is my absolute favorite! Coffee is strong and delicious, and the potatoes are absolutely wonderful. I just cannot say enough about this place. Maria is such a sweetheart and treats us like family. Daisy is so friendly and has a great attitude and personality. It's definitely my favorite spot to visit and I'm looking forward to going back! read more

Amys is the best and the staff is absolutely wonderful! We love daisy shes always so happy and remembers us when we come in!

This restaurant is amazing. My adult children were very small when we first started eating there. This family owned/run establishment is always welcoming, the food is delicious, prepared fresh, and plentiful. In the past years, we have ordered tamales and all the side dishes for our family gathering at Christmas. The price goes up, as all things now, but the quality never wavers and the taste does not disappoint. The tamales themselves have remained substantial. They have not shrunk like other places have tended to do. This family goes above and beyond to make everything just right. read more

Great food. Great service. It's a little hole in the wall. Family owned business. My favorite it the shrimp salad.
