First the place is clean and the staff was super nice and the ac was cold. The food well was ok, not bad, not memorable other than the bean dip. However it was only memorable because it was so laughable. They brought us a bowl of queso with some specs of beans. The queso wasnt bad it had a little kick to it but definitely not bean dip. We also ordered guac which was fresh and had large chunks of avacado mixed with theor house salsa. The house salsa, again not bad - runny and kinda just there. I ordered the mixed fajitas which I thought were shrimp, beef, chicken but it was just beef and chicken (I didn't specifically say trio - my bad). The fajitas had grilled tomatoes, onions, green peppers, beef and chicken on a sizzling skillet with a side of guac, sour cream, rice and beans. It also came with flour tortillas. The beef was tough and the chicken a bit overcooked. The flavor was ok but again wouldn't go back for. The item I enjoyed the most was the grilled onions. Again, staff was nice and we had a good time. If you like more of a bland/non spicy Mexican food this place I would suggest. If you like big bold flavors and a lot of spice I don't think this would be the place. read more

The sauce is very cilantro heavy. The taco salad was such a let down. The shredded chicken was seasoned but didn't really have a taste. The salad was very watery and the lettuce was spring mix and hard to cut and eat. The crazy thing is that it had no cheese whatsoever. If i hadn't been starving and spending $11 for it, i would've walked out without eating it. Definitely a strike out. Second time I've been here and it wasn't good. That's it for me! Service by Kristi was great though. read more

If you're from the area, you know you can't go wrong with avocado's! The staff are always very friendly and helpful. They are also bilingual which is helpful if you don't know English or Spanish very well. I've been here a few times and everything is delicious! Unfortunately I am on a diet and couldn't partake in the usual tacos or chimichangas. I ordered the chicken salad and I was not displeased at all. It was delicious. Only bad thing I can say about it is that the lettuce isn't the best quality lettuce, but I digress. This place is a no brainer if you're wanting Mexican in the area. read more

Avocado's has the best fried avocado tacos. I'm a vegetarian and most people don't make meals for us but this is one of the best meals I've tasted from a restaurant in a long time. read more

This restaurant is what I use as a rubric to measure all other Mexican restaurants. The amount of time and money I have spent in this establishment is a testament to how fantastic everything there is. Whether it was going out to dinner with the family or going to grab some drinks with some friends, no other place can compare. My go to meal is the Tacos al Carbon. This is the only Mexican restaurant that I have ever been to that puts the white queso on the tacos al carbon as per the norm. The tomatillo sauce is amazing. Only consume the tomatillo sauce if you have a high tolerance to spicy. The margaritas are amazing! They are strong enough to get you to where you want to be with a minimal number of drinks. To sum this review up: Don't waste your time with other Mexican restaurants. The restaurant stays busy even during off hours that should tell you everything you need to know. read more

Getting here from I20 is pretty quick and worth the short drive. Place is clean and friendly staff. Being from oklahoma I know good Mexican food and these guys do a great job! Chips and salsa was solid. Try The stuffed avocados (both chicken and shrimp) they are a great way to start! I tried to get a pic but the kids tore into them too quickly. The various kinds of enchiladas were excellent as were the margaritas! read more

This place had been on our to-do list for a while now after I accidentally drove by the sign a year or so ago. I saw that it was packed and looked like a good date night. Finally, the day came and it was a weird time to go, between dinner and lunch. But it ended up being nice because we were one of the few tables inside and had full attention of our waiter and the staff, so no issues there. As for the food, we were overwhelmed with delicious options on the menu. We opted for the stuffed avocados - a MUST. They tasted like they were stuffed with ceviche, a super healthy blend of lime, lemon juice, shrimp, tomatoes, and onion. We easily scarfed these down and didn't feel too much guilt after. As for our meals, I opted for the super unhealthy fried avocado tacos, which were superb. I had enough for leftovers and gladly ate them later without hesitation. I definitely cannot wait to go back here. It tops my short list of local eats to go when hoping for some Tex-Mex. This is not going to be your authentic Mexican place, but in my opinion, has much more flavor than El Jarrito on every corner. It has more unique dishes and the decor inside is actually nice. I say it is a mix of Iron Cactus with Chili's if you've been to both, than expect that, and you won't be disappointed. read more

I don't know why everyone is so crazy about this place... I was recommended this place a few times within a couple days. Maybe I just went on a bad day? I ate here on Sunday, August 18, 2013 for lunch. Came with a party of 4 around 12:30 pm. Prime lunch time right? On the weekend? So the food is supposed to be fresh? I'm just confused. I ordered a chimichanga. I've never gotten one like this before. It was ground beef wrapped in a flour tortilla with white queso on top, served with rice, beans, lettuce w/ guac, sour cream & pico de gallo. It was horrid. The meat smelled. Bad. It was SO SALTY. I ended up eating the rice, beans, and lettuce and maybe 3 bites of the chimichanga. It just did not smell OR TASTE right. It tasted a bit old. I just couldn't stomach it! And I was starving!!! My friends got the taco salad which was totally loaded and looked visually appealing. It had the same ground meat though. They didn't complain, but I am very sensitive to smell. They also ordered a tortilla soup. I found that this dish was lacking flavor!!! It had broccoli and cauliflower florets in it! and carrots and fresh avocado...It was different. Quite a light and refreshing broth, but it did not taste very flavored. I guess it was called tortilla soup because it had a few small tortilla chips sprinkled on top... I wouldn't go back. I really don't know what the hype is. read more

We went to visit family in Louisiana and they decided to visit this location. It was indicated to us that it was going to be a Tex-Mex restaurant. When we got there, it looked like any other Mexican restaurant. We had a large group and they did accommodate us in a section of the restaurant which was nice. Afterwards we ordered and I got the fish tacos. They loaded my plate with refried beans and Mexican rice. The refried beans tasted very generic like it came from a can. The Mexican rice tasted like it had been sitting in a chafing dish for a bit so it was seemed overcooked and dry. I attached a photo of it and they did a good job presenting it. The fish tacos were not memorable so that means there was no outstanding piece of it to make it stand out. Unfortunately, it did not live up to the hype that my relatives made it out to be. read more

Avocado's - Fish tacos - Mexican Near Me - Monroe, Louisiana

My last meal in Louisiana was here....they had almost doubled the size of the interior, and got rid of the "we must open quickly and get the cash register busy" look. Very tasteful looking on the inside now but nothing that would pass muster with Las Vegas standards. Since everyone guys from Mexican food here are a words that sum up my review...This is not the Mayo Clinic. Mexican food should be heavily seasoned and spicy, with a liberal dose of salt and garlic. the plates were abundant looking.... but all four plates work totally underseasoned. not a lemon wedge or lime wedge in sight, much less raw onion or cilantro. On the plus side...service was fantastic and our orders were brought to us quickly despite the crowds. Iced Tea what's refilled quickly. my parents are getting up there in years so I know they needed something with flavor. next time I will just tell them to season everything heavily. You would think that fajita enchiladas would be swimming in a plethora of different flavors. But the grilled onions and peppers added nothing to the fajita meat. it totally needed some salt while cooking. Maybe I am just spoiled living in Collin County Texas, with the chain Mexican restaurants such as uncle Julio's or Pappasito's, and of course Taco Cabana. With a few touches of proper marination and liberal seasoning, this place would really rock. if anyone, at the management level of the restaurant reads this, please tell him I love this affordable, and plush auction in Monroe...but to please work on adding some salt. One final plus...a vast ocean of parking and some of the best exterior stating I have ever seen! read more

Texan approved, i never have high expectations when i get Mexican food away from home but man is this place good, absolutely nothing to complain about! Try their spicy tomatillo salsa if you can take the heat. read more

I would not recommend this place. It's over priced and if you order a chicken quesadilla without onions, they charge you. Extra salsa was nothing but tomato sauce with it. Mexican seasoning, horrible. never going back read more

Good food! Quick service and cold beer. Thank you. Was a nice stop driving back to Texas.

I visited Avocado ' s today. It's been about a year and a half since I have been here (since I moved) but I used to come here for lunch all the time. I probably would have given it a four before. So here is the up to date scoop: The expanded space is beautiful and clean. The bathroom was especially nice (a pet peeve of mine ;)). The food is good - real good but higher priced than competitors in the area. There are a few unique items you won't find eslewhere. One of which is the cucumber martini - try it...but watch it, make sure they actually put some alcohol in there. The service is so slow. SO SLOW. That's about all I got. read more

My husband and I came here on a whim since we couldn't decide what to eat. Everything seemed really out of sorts, but I think a lot of restaurants are struggling ever since Covid. We didn't receive menus until our waitress came back with our drinks, and she seemed out of it. She repeatedly came back and forth trying to remember what she wanted to say and what we ordered, I really wish she would have just written it all down. She forgot to ask us what meat or sauce and our food had stuff we didnt order on it. We just ate it anyway, not a huge deal. I wanted to mention it to add to what the experience was like for us. I would recommend the chicken, it was good! The beef was a little dry but it had flavor and the food came out fast and hot which is always appreciated. I'm not really sure if I'd come back, I didn't dislike the place it just felt awkward. I got the enchiladas and my husband got two ta Quito's and a burrito. read more

The Baja shrimp, chicken, and rice is so good. I ordered on Waitr and got $5 off using code Local5!

Been here twice now. The staff has been very friendly and attentive. The food has come out extremely fast for a sit down restaurant, even when there was a crowd. I had the three amigos. One of the tacos was a fish taco (my first). Not sure if I like it or not but it was cooked perfectly. My wife had the whole enchilada. All of the food was delicious. Everyone that walked by offered drink refills when needed, even if they weren't our server. We will definitely come again and recommend it to friends. read more

Good Zmexican food, reasonably fresh. Prepared in a way similar to most chain Mexican restaurants. Service friendly and helpful.

I am a regular at this restaurant. It is 2 blocks from my office, and I have almost eaten my way through the entire menu. I love Mexican food, in general, so I am not too difficult to please. That being said, I love Avocados because they offer a fresher, lighter version of all of my favorites, and they are quite affordable, especially at lunch. I highly recommend the carne asada tacos (they are served on a corn tortilla with onions and cilantro) and the Baja chicken and rice. Their fajitas are excellent, and I always ask for a side of their green guaca sauce with whatever I order, which is super spicy, but sooo delicious. Their refried beans and rice are great, as well. I have only had the margaritas a few times (as I normally eat here at lunch), but they are also quite good, and normally 2-for-1. The service is friendly and quick, and you can easily get in and out over a one hour lunch break. read more

Here is what I ordered the Catfish Stuffed w/Shrimp breaded and deep fried. Here is what I got instead 2 pieces of catfish( not stuffed) with shrimp in the middle of the 2 pieces of fish. What I'll call a fish shrimp sandwich. What the hell? Anyway I was to tired to make a fuss about it. My dish also included rice and a salad loaded with onions. The fish was bland, shrimp and rice were salty. I only ate a bite of this mistake. I did order the Fried Ice Cream which was very good. This is the only reason I'm giving this place 2 stars. read more

My girlfriend and I really enjoy Avocado's typically. The food is good, fair prices, and usually a pretty relaxed environment you can enjoy with friends and family. However, tonight was a different experience. We had a homeless man come and sit at the table next to us and ask us for money. It was very uncomfortable. It was unfortunate to see that the serving staff sat and observed without checking on their customers. Entire serving staff is spineless. read more

Unlike others, I thought Avocado's was reasonably priced! Everything tasted fresh and was delicious. We didn't get any appetizers when we went, which was probably for the best because I left there with a full tummy AND leftovers! I ordered the Benjamin, it was delicious! My grandma ordered the taco salad with shredded chicken and she loved it! I think next time I'll order their stuffed avocado appetizer, it sounded really good. I'll be back again soon. read more

The rice was hard. The chicken nuggets were really burnt (they were black). They got all of our order wrong. I do NOT recommend

I thought with recent reviews being high that this restaurant was taking an upward turn so I tried it out. Big mistake. If McDonalds served Mexican it would look and taste like this. Zero timing between appetizers and dinner plates, everything tasted like it was put together from a steam table. Rice and beans look like what you find in a baby's diaper. Zero dish appeal, cold and bland. I also was very surprised in a restaurant that had three other tables occupied that the server was nowhere to be found. read more

I ordered the Whole Avocado Super Nacho $ 11.99. So, by the name one would assume there would avocado in the dish. But there was not even a hint of avocado anywhere to be found. Really disappointing when you ordered a dish that has avocado in the name and that's why you ordered it and there's none in the dish! read more

Air conditioner worked well. Service was good. Food not so remarkable. Wouldn't come here again.

Order the Three Amigos (steak, chorizo, & fish tacos). Very good! Their guacamole is good if you like guacamole (I'm not a huge fan myself). Salsa is good. Queso is good. If you order the Three Amigos, it comes with a green Chile sauce that is really good. Also they have one of the best pico de gallo around here in my opinion. read more
