Añejo Mexican Cuisine never disappoints. The first time that I went, there was for a book reading event and since then I've been there a few times! The food is flavorful, fresh, and beautifully done, classic Mexican dishes with a polished touch. Great portions, excellent drinks, and a warm atmosphere that makes it perfect for date night or a casual dinner. Definitely a go-to spot. read more

Food was great! Warning don't go in a group larger than 4. They charge gratuity of 20% AND you will get ignored!!! Why pay attention to your table if they'll be charged 20% anyway? Well that's exactly what happened to us. We were completely ignored by our server and we normally tip over 20%. I truly hope you get better service than we did. It's a shame the quality of customer service doesn't match the high quality of the food! read more

First time here, been hearing a lot about their party nights so the girls and i finally decided to pop out and try it. I first wanted the salmon & the pulpo but were out of both unfortunately. I really wanted to try those but ended up getting the aguachiles instead. They were very decent, spicy level was truly a zero and i really like mines spicy. The bottom was fulllllll of onions but decent amount of shrimp for $23 (i think) Cute scenery but maybe because we went late, it was empty and very quiet. I'll definitely have to come back and try other items, we had wine with dinner. read more

I was so excited to try the guacamole here with the beef chicharon on top. I'm so sad to say it disappointed. The churros were even stale and almost tasted like they had sat for a while then had been reheated and covered in sugar and sprinkles. From everything I bought here, the chips and queso is the only thing I'd get again. The vibe was great for meeting up with an old friend and I had an amazing server, so 3 stars for that! :) read more

I came here with a friend for burger week 2025 and I was impressed with the inside. I ordered a burger with fries and a spicy margarita. The burger was good but typical. The spicy margarita was on point!!! The staff were super friendly and attentive. What really impressed me was the view we had of the street from our table. Overall it was a good experience and I can't wait to come back. read more

Visited 10/12 and won't be returning. Food is good but service is terrible. These people are crooks and it's sad when it's your own people. I spent $145 and 3 days later I saw it was $295, I immediately called to get this obvious error corrected and since the beginning all I'm ever told is "the manger just stepped out call back in an hour or two" I've followed up a total of 12 times since October 16th and every time it's the same thing. They take my name, number and last 4 of my car number and assure me a manager will call me back to get this error sorted. Ownership needs to look into the people they hire 6 month update: reached one of the owners(Esteban) and he told me he in fact saw I was charged $150 extra and said he was going to reach out to his "POS" (this was in January) and 3 months later I still haven't received my refund. I guess the bartender that overcharged me got all the training they needed from ownership. Nothing but crooked business read more

This place is OK. We came in early on a Friday and the place looks nice, but they store their supplies in the hallway which does not go at all with the decor of the place. This tells me that management has stopped caring about making a good first impression. The food is average Mexican food, but from the other reviews, maybe it was better when they first opened or we just got in on a bad night. I don't go to Lawrenceville often anymore but I may try this place again if I'm in the area. read more

I came here after work on a Tuesday. The service was fast and not crowded, so we were seated fast. I ordered salmon, rice and vegetables. It was really good and had good flavor. I also tasted my friend's Mexican burger and that was really good but very spicy. The ambience was casual. I'd definitely return. read more

Day 2 of #GwinnettBurgerWeek at Anejo on the Lawrenceville Square. Their burger is called Mama-Lona! It's seasoned ground chuck, arugula, raw red onions, sweet bacon sauce, crispy bacon, and provolone cheese on a homemade oregano bun. Good burger with nice views and bonus points for a close match to the promo photo. read more

Service was okay. I liked the "rooftop" patio but feel like there should be a better way for people to come in and enjoy seating without all of the stairs (what if someone was handicapped?) & I don't recall seeing an elevator. Food: My son had the kids cheese quesadilla w/ fries - I think this was tasty and it came out pretty fast. The agua Fresca was so delicious, I wish it was of bigger size. I ordered the steak & guacamole bowl - it came with (2) purple soft shell tortillas but I swapped it out for hard shell. I think this dish was filling but lacked extreme flavor from steak to guac, unfortunately. Next time, I'll try a different menu item - the menu seems like it has a lot to offer. read more

I've heard mixed reviews about this place and was finally able to try it out myself! I got the sopes and all thought I'm not usually a big fan of the purple tortilla, I will say these were good! I enjoyed the meat that came on them I got 1 pollo 2 asada next time I for sure will only be getting the asada lol not that the pollo wasn't good I'm just more of a asada girl. The martini was good I loved that they don't only offer cocktails with tequila! Our server was very sweet! She was very attentive and prebussed everything for us as we finished! The ambiance is so nice! I will be coming back for a dinner on the patio lol! read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant. The food just tastes high quality and lots of flavor. There's no wait. Staff is so nice and accommodating especially when I brought my kids. The decor is so cute and I just love this place. It's my favorite place out of all the restaurants in downtown Lawrenceville too. read more

This is what you call "A good TIME" This place is a great addition to the already GREAT downtown Lawrenceville area. Anejo is hot and Poppin, the rooftop dinning really elevate things a bit more. The restaurant is beautiful, the drinks are beautiful, the dinning experience was very nice and the food was delicious. Our servers were very efficient and accommodating. Please try the molcajete dish, filled with meats, onions and cactus in this yummy sauce. Parking can look like a problem at first, but check the backside of this building. Check them out, you will not be disappointed. read more

Since they've opened we've gone once a month because it's a lovely place. I wouldn't recommend going in a group larger than 10 but more about Anejo! We love their flights, apps and meals.

From start to finish, Añejo delivered an elevated dining experience. The beef tacos were juicy and packed with flavor, the elote was creamy and perfectly seasoned, and the drinks? Next level. We tried the Spicy Mamacita and Sunset DTL--both beautifully crafted and full of personality. The ambiance is stunning, with a romantic vibe that's perfect for date night or a night out with friends. We'll absolutely be back! read more

I absolutely LOVED this place ! Upscale decor , very impressed with the tile on the ceiling! The food is absolutely amazing! Super authentic tastes very fresh and a wide variety of drink selections to pair off with. I loved the chicharron de ribeye ive never had it and i think its brilliant. The sopes are so delicious! I have never had an amazing sope in a restaurant before in GA . The atmosphere is super fun and our server was amazing! I highly recommend this place ! I think its a good thing they dont serve free chips and salsa it would be a sad thing not to have room for all the scrumptious food options! I will definitely be back! read more

Anejo is excellent!!! It is a unique gem that Downtown Lawrenceville really needs and I am so glad to see it growing. They opened on New Years Eve so they are still developing vibe, but already it is a great concept with amazing drinks and food. They are coming out with a dessert menu next week. I tried a couple of different cocktails and they were all good. I highly recommend, I think it was called the Sunset DTL (Raspberry flavored) and the Paloma is amazing too. I also got to try the skinny margarita and they use fresh juices so you can tell the difference. Jesus is an excellent bartender! The music was upbeat ambient which is my favorite. Food wise we tried the chicharrons with guacamole, chicken mole, and queso. My coworkers got some tacos and they said the tacos were excellent! I am hoping they fix the signage at the front, because it is hard to see the Anejo sign, but it is located right next to the Alley way and a couple buildings over from Local Republic. Also, Jamie the owner is super nice and easy to talk to. He goes above and beyond to make sure everyone has a great time here. Jamie also owns both D'Floridians. One is also in downtown lawrenceville and the other one is in Woodstock. Our server Melanie was also excellent and made sure to check on us frequently. read more

This place left a lot to be desired, both in terms of food quality and service. The queso had a very watery consistency. The chicken quesadilla was bland and closer to room-temp than hot. The only flavoring on the fajitas was the overpowering taste of char from the grill, no seasoning whatsoever. And don't get me started on the fact that this is first Mexican restaurant I've ever been to that doesn't offer chips and salsa for the table!! Not even as an appetizer option, I mean come on?! The service was also subpar. In the roughly hour and a half that we sat on the patio, our server Andres came by our table a total of four times: 1) to take our drink/appetizer order, 2) to take our food order, 3) to bring out our food, and 4) to bring the check. Our waters went un-refilled the entire time and I only got a refill on my Coke after flagging down and asking the waiter. We went on a Monday, not many tables, so "being too busy" isn't a valid excuse. Especially when we saw nearby tables frequently getting checked-on by their servers. Overall, a very underwhelming (and borderline disappointing) experience. We won't be coming back. The only reason I didn't give this place 1-star is because the rooftop patio was a nice place to sit and the music wasn't too terribly loud. I've had truly horrible 1-star experiences, and this wasn't quite on that level. read more

I was over charge, additional $7 more then menu price. The drink was NASTY, it was water down. I didn't even drink it of how nasty it was. The waiter was rude and careles. read more

What Mexican restaurant doesn't offer free chips and salsa? This one! Over priced and had to take an elevator or stairs to get to the top. Probably won't eat here again. read more

Anejo has quickly become one of my go-to Mexican restaurants in Lawrenceville! Their pastor and steak tacos are absolutely my favorites. On Tuesdays, they have amazing taco and margarita specials--$3 tacos and $8 margaritas--and they never miss. The service is always prompt, and the vibe is consistently great. Highly recommend checking it out! read more

Añejo - Skinny Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

Añejo is our latest restaurant experience in Mexican Cuisine, and what a great experience it was!!! We came here to celebrate our son's 23rd birthday. The restaurant dining area is situated entirely on the second floor. So if you can score a patio seat that means you will have a rooftop-like view of the Lawrenceville Square, which is especially cool at night. Even cooler, they have live music on the weekends. The food is pricey for Mexican food and so are the drinks. However, my dish was absolutely delicious. For starters we ordered: CHICHARRON DE RIBEYE | $21 Fried ribeye on a fresh bed of guacamole and served with fresh tortillas. Nicely seasoned, but I do wish they would have added something else in addition to the guacamole. (4 stars) CHICKEN FLAUTAS | $10 Not on the dinner menu, but they made them for us nonetheless. Included rice and beans (4 stars) ELOTE | $7 Fresh corn with mayonnaise and queso fresco. Good, but could have been better. (3.5 stars) Our entree's included: RIBEYE TORTA | $13 Topped with beans, lettuce, tomato, queso fresco, avocado, mayonnaise, and jalapeño. (4.5 stars) SOPES | $16 Three homemade fried corn masa sopes topped with your choice of meat, refried beans, cabbage salad, sour cream, quest fresco, and avocado. My wife debated heavily over this dish or the vegetarian tacos. Overall her review of them was "good, but I've had better." (4 stars) ENCHILADAS DE POLLO | $20 Three shredded chicken enchiladas with mole, guajillo and tomatillo sauce topped with pickled onions, pumpkin seeds, avocado, sour cream and cheese, served with rice. My son devoured them as if he were starved. (4 stars) BRAISED SHORT RIB | $32 THIS IS A MUST TRY DISH! Tender and slow roasted in Añejo's own agave broth. I fell deeply in love at first bite! The broth alone is so full of flavor I was tempted to lick my plate clean. So satisfying I doubt I will ever be able to try anything else on the menu! IF I can force myself, I may give the TAMPIQUEÑA (skirt steak) or the COCHINITA PIBIL (slow cooked shredded pork loin) a try someday, but I'm pretty certain I'm gonna be hooked on the Braised Short Ribs at least for the next 5 visits! LOL (5 stars) For a celebratory drink we tried a $15 smoke infused tequila cocktail called Sexy 92. If I'm being 100% honest, I didn't enjoy it at all. My son enjoyed its uniqueness and our server said it is extremely popular, but I just can't understand why. (2 stars) FINAL THOUGHTS The BRAISED SHORT RIBS are an absolute must try. The RIBEYE TORTA was also excellent, so excellent in fact that we ordered one to go. Overall, a great new restaurant option on the Lawrenceville Square and sister restaurant to D' Floridian just across the street. read more

We came in after having brunch elsewhere to have a cocktail and check out the view. The patio upstairs is gorgeous & the view is perfect! We enjoyed the fact that it is shaded & covered so you are not in the heat. The light fixtures are gorgeous and make almost a jingle bells sound as the wind blows through them. The service was great & the drinks were made perfectly. They do have an elevator in the back of therestaurant if you don't want to climb the stairs. We will be back to try the food. Everything was clean & nice! read more

It's wonderful to have an authentic high end Mexican place in downtown Lawrenceville! I've now been to Añejo twice, and absolutely love this hip, stylish bar and restaurant with one of the best rooftops around. The food is delectable - both times I've gone, the folks I was with were in sharing moods and I've been able to try several items. Highly recommend the chicken mole and their old fashioned! The service is also terrific. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. Feel free to ask questions, they've been super gracious in answering and making sure guests find something they'll love! read more

Perfect place for date night. My husband and I came for an afternoon date and wanted some place with good food, drinks, and atmosphere. Anejo checked all the boxes. Super chill rooftop that gives a great view of downtown Lawrenceville. My husband had the shrimp and chicken tacos and they were a good size with lots of flavor. I had the Birria Tacos and it was the right amount of crunch and flavor. My first time and now my new favorite Mexican dish. Everything was priced pretty well (tacos $4 each) drinks were good and not too strong. We would come back again . read more

I honestly like coming to this place because the food is so well . But after our only 3 shots taking exactly 22 minutes to come it , I went to the host stand to ask for a manger if they could maybe help out my party who wants to spend money . As I'm waiting I clearly see the bar manger pouring out shots . But instead of our Din Julio Repo , I SEE HER POUR HERADURA REPO . And tried to pass it off at Don Julio . Complete unprofessional . When I confront the bartender about passing something off that isn't CHEAPER than what we asked for she says that she was gonna ask us later . Not only is she short handing who ever owns this business but is showing their true colors . I also witnessed her adding herself a tip of $10s to everyone tab that she rang up . Completely unacceptable. Her only response was I WAS BUSY. If you can't handle 6 seats at the bar you should handle the bar. Invest in training and more don julio cheap asses read more

A play on Mexican flavors that is carefully woven into an elegant dining experience. Service was very on point and the servers, waitress, and owner gave helped and guided us through the menu, place, and what to order based on our taste buds and how hungry we were. Music is low and chill and mostly like EMD, pop, Latin music playing and kinda dark, laid back chill atmosphere but opens up to a nice rooftop patio. -Good for date !! - Roof top patio is even better over looking downtown lawrenceville square. - Cozy small bar for quick work, emails , drinks - Parking in back or on the street in the front ( if spots are available ) read more

Everything was great . Food, service, ambiance, location, easy close parking. Great for dates or a girls night out, or after work cocktail.

My husband picked this place for celebrating his birthday with our families. We made a reservation for 14 people. We arrived on time and unfortunately they weren't ready for our party. They were "waiting for another party to leave" so they could add an additional table to ours. If you're going to allow a reservation, then be prepared for them ahead of time. My mother found lipstick on her glass when she sat down, so that was gross. They kept leaving the patio door open when we asked them to close it because it was very cold outside and our tables were next to it. Our son was wearing his winter coat and was still cold. Thankfully the food and drinks made up for it and made it worth it. We did feel rushed as we were getting up to leave. We were saying our "goodbyes" to family, and the staff was pushing themselves into the tables to start bussing them. We still were trying to get our things! This would have been 5 stars if those other things were better. The food and drinks were great, but they need to pay attention to details. read more

We just left the restaurant after sitting at our table for 20 minutes with barely any service. Waitress dropped off water and never came back. And it wasn't like all the tables were full. Waitresses just kept on walking back and forth paying us no mind. I'll spend my money elsewhere. read more

my wife and I wanted a date night last night and I pulled up yelp. She was sold on something different and once she saw the pictures on the website she immediately said YES! I want to start off by saying the staff were ALL amazing! Friendly, attentive and courteous. We ordered the guacamole which was better than it looked but really did not have any flavor or crunch. Very bland and I am a person that like a little heat. We then ordered the "Texas Fajitas" that were were told were authentic and amazing. Sorry to say they were a 1.5 out of 5. The dish comes with shrimp, steak and chicken. Let's start with the shrimp. The sizes of the shrimp were large but they had NO flavor at all. There was barely any steak except a very small portion that was really dry and overdone, again no flavor. As for the chicken I have never seen more YELLOW chicken in my life. It had more flavor than anything else but no really appealing to eat. I agree with one person's comment on no chips and salsa but what restaurant gives you lettuce in a bowl to put on a fajita? The ONLY flavor was the banana pepper that was WAY to HOT and took out any taste to the already bland food. All I could do was drink the water that was room temp since they do not give you any ice in the water??? Where I became very disappointed was with the bill and sour cream and the tortillas. In the bowl with the unknown lettuce we noticed other customers received we asked if there was any sour cream in the bowl. The nice server advised there was sour cream at the bottom. THERE WAS ZERO so we asked for some (for the record, it is not sour cream and it was very runny) only to find out we were charged .50 for it. The blue tortillas were very soft and in a real Mexican restaurant you would double up the shells to hold the food. Once again we where charged 2.00 for additional tortillas... Now for the bill and sadly where the world is coming to. When I asked for the bill the waitress handed me the new age bill of the swipe machine. I asked her for an actual receipt but the "machine" was jammed and would not print out anything. When I went to pay all I saw was a total and an area to tip. The world of owning a restaurant is becoming more seedy by the minute at let me tell you why. 1. I was not able to see the actual break down of the bill just a number. I would have said something about the overcharges had I received an itemized receipt before payment. 2. When the tip options came up this was APPAULING and if I see it again the manager will be called over. It is one thing to put a percentage 15% / 20% or whatever BUT under the percentage should not have a word associated. 20% is more than fair but under that number was the word "Good". Under the 15% was the word "Fair". These words play on a customer thoughts when tipping. 20% is more than fair especially here. The other part of the bill is that the tip is already calculated on the amount PLUS taxes. Tipping should not include taxes which would reduce the over all bill. I would also like to add Gwinnett County is ripping people off and becoming Chicago and New York faster than you know. 9% liquor tax on a drink, really? Overall 1.5 out of 5 I am said to say but the servers are only taking orders and were the best part of the experience. read more
