Super good food. They had amazing service. Me and my family were sitting outside and it was lovely. Their portions are pretty big, big enough to split between two! Definitely would come again!! read more

Came here with my parents on a late Sunday evening and there was no one here. We got our food really fast and it look so good. The enchilada was very meaty and the beans tasted so good not to salty. Their chips and salsa was also very good I must say. read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Enchilada with chilie reneno - Seafood Near Me - Lancaster, California

This place is the worst. I went for a burrito to go while on my lunch. I got back to my job site ate the burrito and there's only bean and meat. No rice. No pico de gallo or any vegetable inside. I asked for everything and all I got was bean and meat. Don't go here if you want something good because they really made me upset and I spent $20 on a burrito ? Ridiculous. read more

Great food. Nice vibe. My favorite Mexican spot in Lancaster. I Ordered the carnitas plate

Our whole family loves the rustic fun Azteca restaurant. We go every chance we can. Great food, super cool staff read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Home - Seafood Near Me - Lancaster, California

I just love this place. Ive lived here for about 10 yrs now and love the staff and the food! Taco Tuesday is a must. My favorite for any other time is a Taco Charro. This is a fried flour tortilla in the shape of a Taco shell. I love the shredded beef, although you can choose whatever meat you prefer. It also comes with lettuce, tomato. Sour cream and guacamole. I order it ala carte. That's plenty for me, but you can order it as a combo with beans and rice. It's nice to have a great Mex food restaurant out here in the Acres-no having to drive into the city!!! read more

They charged me $5 to use the restroom. I went in and had to pay for a drink which I understood. She said a horchata was $5.50 so I just asked for a fountain Coke instead since I only had a $5 in cash and it cost $10 to use card. When I came out the restroom for my change she said a medium fountain drink was also $5.50. Ridiculous. read more

Service and food is a 10/10!!!! We are from out of town and would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food!

Good prices, good homestyle Mexican food, friendly service. One of our go to spots in the area. They even refill the horchata.

BEWARE THEY WILL ARGUE WITH YOU AND TRY TO CHARGE YOU FOR THE MISTAKE. I order the chicken del creama told them that I was allergic to onions.Of course it came back with onion's they told me they would make me and new plate. They just brought the same plate out to me. I understand if they made a mistake but to argue with the customer and not talk to the coworker first. Then they charged my wife for the plate but I look at the receipt so we had to have them void it and charge it with the new total. It doesn't seem like they have any communication. read more

I did not expect to find the best Mexican food I've EVER had right here in the Mojave desert. The authenticity of the food shines through with the service. Every time I've ordered, be it a pickup order or to sit down in the restaurant, I am met with promptness, politeness, and competence. Sitting down inside is a treat all on its own. The ambience is a mix of people all with smiles on their faces and it's always clean and inviting. Azteca is my new go to for Mexican food and I can't recommend them enough. read more

Each year we take my Dad here for his birthday. We recently went and something has changed since the last time we came. The food did not taste the same and was not enjoyable. The food did not taste fresh and didn't have the family cooked vibe like it normally has. I left with a funny after taste in my mouth. Sadly, I will be going somewhere else for our next get together. read more

This is a good cute restaurant. Service is great too. Their food is good too however their Menudo disappointed me only because it needed more taste flavor. Lack of salt and the meat would be better if in smaller pieces. But over all great restaurant. read more

Wow! Such great food and service. We came to the poppy reserve and came here after building up some hunger from walking. We were greeted with a nice warm basket of tortilla chips and salsa...mm... I ordered the molcajete (my first time trying) it came as a hot plate with refried beans, cheese, and rice with a bowl of chicken, beef, and mushroom (stew?). It came with a side of a few tortillas as well! There was a choice between flour and corn. We also ordered a few tacos but I was too full and content. The service was amazing as well and I would love to try more dishes here. read more

I really love the wood walls like i'm up in the mountains cabin look cozier to set and eat in my house by far.. Also great tasting cocktails well blend one Sour Whiskey and one Tequila Sunrise loved it.. Next time I'm not missing out on dessert. read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Tall on Tequila sunrise and a sour whiskey - Seafood Near Me - Lancaster, California

I'm all about supporting a family owned business! However, the $$$ is way way too much! Great people! Great food! But, swamp cooler ain't cutting it! Too humid and hot inside. read more

Small unassuming plaice but they have the best chile verde! Definitely will stop here when we come back through.

This Azteca Restaurant has poor Quality Control and bad management. The Antelope Acres Lancaster CA location we've gone to for years has gone downhill as of 2024. I received a chicken enchilada and got a surprise, maybe it was a pebble - nope - a chicken neck vertebra , wait ... 4 chicken neck vertebrae. DISGUSTING. I pointed this out to server and manager and neither seemed surprised or interested in correcting the error. We'll be reporting to the Health Dept. read more

We visited for dinner on Tuesday with a party of four and it was a nice experience. They have moved back to their old location, so basically the exterior looks like an old house covered with graffiti. We were seated in a large booth in the corner, and drink orders were taken. The margarita was a little weak. The chips and salsa can not be beat. They homemade chips are addictive and their habanero salsa adds a nice kick. We ordered a couple Carne Tampiquenas, Enchiladas, and another Carne dish. All were excellent and well presented. You can't beat a steak wrapped in bacon! The service started out a bit slow, but improved as the meal progressed. He was nice enough to help with splitting the check and multiple credit cards. Overall: Stop by for excellent Mexican food if you are in the area. read more

Updating to add, so I remember for next time I'm out here visiting my mother, that the green chile pork is SUPERB. One of the best implementations of this dish that I've had, and I should totally order that. read more

We live out here, so it's a no brainer. But it really is legit! Everything is dialed in, and this is easily my favorite spot around for fajitas!! (Side note, if you like toreados, these are also the best around!). Don't let the exterior fool you, it only adds to the experience. read more

We're back!!! It was wonderful news to hear that they had gone back to being a full-service restaurant and they're open for dinner again. Yay! There's a real vibe to the place that's hard to describe, but you can see that people love coming here to eat. Same wonderful salsa, still one of our favorites in the valley. Creatures of habit, we started with salad, extra blue cheese dressing. Mr. Picky ordered the usual Chili Relleno, and I ordered the shrimp banderillas (extra cheese on the rice and extra mushrooms) in order to see if that's still as delicious as it used to be. Very decadent. Great dish to share. Need to come back and refamiliarize with the menu, try the soups we used to like. Back soon. read more

It's 2025 guys! If you're charging 5.00 for an Ice Tea you should use decent reverse osmosis water instead of chlorinated tap water from the sink food wasn't good either. Was recommended bye some friends now I know they have no taste, how does a Mexican restaurant make shitty tacos?? Tell me please 0 stars no recommendation from me! 65.00 for two meals read more

Ok, first off, the address on Yelp is wrong. I tried to update the location, but it wouldn't let me. I'll post a picture of the map. The service is awesome, and the young lady helping us is super sweet. The bathroom is small and needs air freshener. Full bar! Super plus! Seated immediately. Drinks prompt. Salsa and chips on point! So good. Very crisp. Great spice and flavor on salsa. We ordered chili con queso it was so stinking good! Enchiladas, yum! Chicken toquitas is big! Wish we knew it had peppers and tomatoes in it. Everything was really good. The margaritas are fantastic! I highly recommend you stop in here. read more

Wow..! What a great new find. YES... it's a few miles out, but well worth the drive, to be sure. This recommendation came from friends, who know their stuff. And true to their words, it may not be a lot to look at from the street, but once inside it's a very welcoming and comfortable place. And extremely nice folks working there who make you feel right at home. So, you always have 'Chip Expectations' when visiting a new Mexican restaurant, and the bowl of chips (and two nice bowls of salsa) brought to our table were still warm. And they were so very good. I could have stuck with those alone and been a happy camper. They have an Abuelita hiding in the kitchen blessing each and every batch, me thinks. All four of us thought they were delicious. I had a carnitas burrito, mojado style (wet with sauce), with rice and beans. If the kitchen knows how to do a great pork roast for shredding it's a good sign, true..? Well, these folks do a GREAT job with their carnitas. No surprise, as the folks who run the place have a Dad and Uncle that started in the Santa Clarita area 30 years ago. Practice makes perfect, they say. But they've obviously not been merely practicing but perfecting to a higher degree. It was great. And my wife always says that a Chili Relleno is her indicator of a kitchens knowledge. She loved it, they nailed it, all great there. The son, who can be a bit pickier at times (life on the A scale...) had an awesome looking plate of simple but great nachos with beans and chicken. It looked like a picture from a cook book. In fact, when ALL of our dished came to the table... and we just sat and stared at them for a minute. This is beautifully presented food, truly. The daughter-unit had a quesadilla with rice and beans that were in miniature tostada shells, with a very nice guacamole and pico de gallo. Can I use the 'C' word here..? Her plate of food was cute. There. I said it. But seriously, in a world full of restaurants where it seems like some chefs just don't care, these folk care, and it shows. The manager also came by to say 'Hello' and check on us, and the wait staff were so sweet. We'll be back... get those shrimp ready, folks! read more

Good food. Overpriced for Mexican food. There are a few places in town that I prefer, for both the food and the prices. But it's convenient for those who live in the acres. read more

Very amazing Menudo did not expect you would only get this taste in Los Angeles. I would never thought I would've got this taste in Lancaster. Thanks you guys. read more

Every thing about this place is excellent. They are very accommodating in every way. If you ask they will make a batch of flour tortilla chips. read more

Dined here twice. First time was bad, food was tasteless and service was really bad, only one customer and wait person seemed like she was busy doing everything but her job. I heard from a few people in Antelope Acres who thought this place was good so I thought, a couple of months later, that I'd give them another try. Second time was even worse, food seemed old, tasteless, and even looked bad. Taco Bell is far superior and for breakfast I've only been one place in the Antelope Valley that was worse and they went out of business. I would never recommend this location of Azteca to anyone. read more

Love the food but prices have gotten out of hand. Some examples: I usually order an a la cart chili verde burrito. Menu says $13.75. Bill was $14.30. One diet coke $5.15. A to go cup $.31. (I think the server should let people know about these xtra little annoying charges) A to go doggy container $.52. Then if you pay with a credit card they add 4% to the bill not to mention the 18-20% tip. It's too bad 'cuz It used to be my favorite Mexican restaurant. read more

Best Mexican food in the AV for sure and the price is very reasonable you need to try

One of my favorite spots for more better taste Mexican. Great service everytime, more than fair prices and excellent portions and flavors. The Carnitas and Carne asada burrito wet with the special house made hot chile are my go to's. Great spot to have a bite with friends on any night. read more

Ordered wet burrito was really delicious , and service was fast.definitely will be coming back soon

On our route home from a drive to Lake Hughes we decided to look for a place to eat. Based off of proximity and yelp reviews we choose Azteca Mexican restaurant. I'm glad we did. Its a nice suprise, somewhat tucked away. As soon as we got there the service was emaculate. The young ladies were sweet and attentive. And sadly our kids were really cold so we took our food to go. Although the decision was made abruptly Karen(our server) was sweet, understanding and accommodating. Great service is always something I find satisfying and this joint delivered far beyond my expectations. Once we were able to eat the food we were happy that not only was the service on point but so was the food. We ordered a burrito plate, soups(albondiga and azteca), and 2 tamales of beef. All of which was delicious. We were all pleased. Definitely would recommend. P.s I only took a pic of my plate. Yumm! read more

Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Seafood Near Me - Lancaster, California

Let me start off by saying service is excellent. However, the food and drinks are super overpriced. $14 a Michelada drinks. Which btw the mix they use has a weird aftertaste. This kind of Mexican food is only good if you're not Mexican and you don't know how authentic Mexican food tastes. It caters to American taste buds. Food is mid and bland. Head over to the taco stand by Dollar General instead and grab yourself a Clamato, limes and Modelo Negras...you're welcome :) read more

Back for more. This time had the house sangria which we enjoyed. Not too sweet. Salsa was excellent again but the chips were a bit over cooked. I don't mind the extra dark chips but husband wasn't a fan. Ordered Molcajete again--excellent. Husband tried the carnitas burrito. The carnitas were very flavorful but a little on the salty side. Son ordered the pollo Azteca (wish I had taken a picture) and it was the star of the meal this time. Strips of chicken with sautéed onions peppers and carrots--seems weird but super good. It was over rice with cheese in a wonderful sauce. I've decided this place certainly has mastered a variety of delicious sauces. Son's gf ordered the beef enchilada & tamale. The shredded beef was very tasty. All in all a very good to excellent meal. Took off a star for the overcooked chips & bit too salty carnitas. Service was top notch. We'll definitely return read more

I have lived in the acres for years and have been eating at Azteca and enjoying it the entire time. Tonight I got the enchilada suizas and brought it home, where I discovered the chicken was raw. I called to let them know and they asked me to bring it in, so I did. I did not ask for a replacement or a refund. When I got there they tried to tell me that this was onion. I didn't know onion was squishy and had fat. It's RAW chicken. They even tried to tell me that the enchiladas can be "more rare". Chicken can't be "rare". I'll never be back because this is disgusting read more

we had our first meal there and were disappointed. They somehow lost our order and it took 50 minutes to receive our meals. it eventually came and the chile rellenos were especially good, but it would have been a nice gesture to give us even a small discount or throw in a dessert. read more

Quality of food in this place has definitely gone downhill. Used to be really good, but not anymore. Salads are pre-prepared and left in the fridge, ready to be served. They charge you more than the menu says for both the drinks and the food. Margaritas do not have much alcohol in them. We went in there for dinner; not only were their employees hot, so were the customers. The thermostat was reading 79°, and the AC was off. read more
