I do not know why it took us so long to discover this place. We always compare new Mexican restaurants to our favorites, and most never compare, but this place was so stinking delicious. I am sorry I did not visit sooner. I believe it is more recent, within the last or so, and that it was a different restaurant before. The chips were exactly the way I like them, hot, salty, and crispy. The salsa was good too. We had a few drinks. Modelo Negra, which is smooth and drinkable. I had the Blue Cactus margarita, I highly recommend, and their version of the Stoli Doli, which was very nice. We had a combo plate and a giant chimi. The giant chimi is what I typically get at my favorite place, and this establishment did such a great job, I no longer have to drive out far to get it. It has both chicken and beef, and I love the pickled vegetables on top. I really want to try more drinks and some their desserts and maybe bring the kids next time, they would love it. read more

Got food poisoning there. Called management and.... They did nothing to entice me back again. It's always nice paying to get sick. Good times! read more

Kirsten is waiting on us. The chips are hot, not too bad, some are a tad over fried and they are rather greasy too. Salsa is mild. No house hot salsa at all. Their hot salsa is a bottle of Cholula. :( The Guacamole is expensive, $12, probably not made to order either. Kirsten confirmed the guacamole is not fresh and is premade, can not be made spicy at all. She suggested adding Cholula, again. I asked if they don't have jalapeño at all, she said yes. We ordered an overpriced small guacamole for $12 and a chicken fajita for two with corn tortillas for $32, also expensive! $46.59 This is likely one of the more expensive Mexican restaurants we have been to in a long while and it's not even a gourmet or fusion either. Prices are closer to NYC or LA prices. Crazy prices here for what you get. Then again their rent is likely sky high since it's a Jonna building. Their salsa ramekin is so small, we usually run out of chips before we run out of salsa at most Mexican restaurants. Let's see how the rest of the food goes, not impressed so far and can't see this place lasting at their prices for another year or so. It's not that busy here either, maybe 4-5 customers early this afternoon. No more chips or salsa refill, we had to ask for more salsa and then more chips too later. Our waitress isn't attentive at all. The premade guacamole didn't come out until our fajita was out, that's not a good order for food items out, especially given the guacamole is premade. Service is not first priority for sure here. Have to ask for things for stuff and attention. Don't recommend their corn tortillas? They don't heat them up, so they disintegrate and fall apart. The flour is the better option for the fajitas. The rice and beans are just filler, not so good. The pico looks to be premade as well and not so fresh. The guacamole wasn't bad, they kicked it up with Serrano peppers. The chicken fajita was decent. More peppers would have been nice, a lot of onions. read more

We ordered takeout from here and it wasn't bad! If I'm getting Mexican I'm always going with some sort of tacos, quesadillas, or fajitas but we opted to try their nachos which weren't bad at all. It was a big portion and you're able to share. It came with a side of guacamole, sour cream and a few salsa roja. Overall really tasty! read more

Fantastic Experience at This Mexican Gem! We went there for dinner, huge group with kids, everyone had a wonderful time. From the moment we walked in, the ambience was warm, clean, and inviting.. The staff stood out as incredibly helpful and genuinely courteous, making sure everything was just right throughout our visit. Complementary Perfectly crisp warm chips and salsa. The food was delicious and full of authentic flavor. My favorite was the Baja tacos with fried avocados--crispy, creamy, and bursting with flavor. I'd go back just for those! To top it off, the pricing was very reasonable. It's refreshing to find a place that offers such high quality without being overpriced. Please stay that way. Highly recommended--we'll definitely be coming back! read more

Good service, bright, uplifting yellow decor, and our waiter was patient and kind with young kids at the table. My food was OK but nothing stellar (3/5) : the chicken flauta was alright (and helped by its many toppings). I live outside the area but if I return, I would try the beef flautas or just get another dish like fajitas (the lovely smell was wafting over from a neighboring table). The reason for the higher overall score of 4 is that my other family members got salads that they were raving about (steak taco salad and Cabo style veggie rice and bean bowl salad). The salad portions were also very big. I did not enjoy the (chicken) tamale and I would not order that again -it seemed like it was either frozen or not made recently/not fresh and definitely not their strength. read more

Went here with some friends while camping at Proud Lake, the waitress was not a good server, we had to ask for water, one order was completely the wrong dish. She did admit she was a new server, shame on the restaurant for not overseeing her and giving her the skills needed to perform her job adequately. I ordered the Mexican sandwich with fajita steak and the meat was over cooked and tough to cut. The person who got the wrong dish, later on he had an upset stomach after we got back to the campsite. The mojito was terrible. The table had a bad wobble. No Mexicans were in the kitchen, definitely do not come here if you want authentic Mexican food!! read more

Everything went very well. The service was friendly and efficient. The lively atmosphere was enjoyable, just a tad on the loud side, however, not unbearable. Now our meals were absolutely exceptional! The food was oh so flavorful, well prepared using fresh ingredients. I don't believe I've had a better tasting Quesadilla anywhere else - in Michigan!!! We were a party of four, and EVERYONE thoroughly enjoyed their dinner. read more

Good food and fast service ! The front cashier has always been respectable and they have the best chicken chimichanga! I stop here for lunch and it's always great. I love the way the decor is and the setting. Ambiance is nice as there is a bar section and a 3 separate seating areas with plenty of tables.. but the food is off the hook good! read more

Really like this place! The food is always fresh- like the massive nachos chimichangas, margaritas, queso, and salsa of course! Service is always great and the owner was really nice. Love the inside. Cute space! read more

We absolutely love this place, for sure the best Mexican restaurant around. We always sit at the bar, and the bartender ( might be owner?) is always gracious and makes great drinks. Our food is always enjoyed, and weird as it might sound, the refried beans are really good. I usually get the tacos, but have had fajitas and also enchiladas that were great. There's something fishy about the negative reviews. They are literally Mayans that are working the kitchen EVERY time we go. I wish them a great business because they seem nice and very customer-oriented. As a local, we appreciate that. read more

We've done takeout multiple times now and it's always been great. Haven't had anything we don't like so far

Very delicious. Taste so right and perfectly. Food champ!! Waitress friendly. We will come back again

Fun local place with festive atmosphere and tasty Mexican dishes. El ranchero chicken was delicious and husband's Grande Burrito was definitely muy grande and would feed a small family... This place has become a craving of ours and is the best Mexi in the area. Service is friendly and margaritas worth the trip! read more

Happy hour is decent $3 Mexican beers are hard to beat! Food is pretty basic Mexican. Bar area is nice for game watching on large TVs but don't expect to hear the game coverage. Also don't expect complimentary chips-salsa unless you order food. Most places offer it to all customers but they do not. read more

My friend and I went here for $11 happy hour margaritas and asked if we could get a different tequila. The bartender suggested one we never heard of but didn't tell us there would be an up-charge. So we were literally charged $25 for each margarita! I've have been to some of the most expensive restaurants in town and I've never been charged $25 a margarita - a poorly made one at that. Just ridiculous and shady all around. And the food was subpar - just your typical "whitewashed" mexican cuisine with tons of sauce and cheese melted all over everything like slop. The only positive was that our waitress was pleasant, but I will never go back. read more

The service was fast and good. the manager made his presence known, stopping by tables to check in. the food was good and large portions. the best thing for me was that they have fried avocado tacos on the menu. they were fantastic. i will be back many times for that alone. my kids also loved their selections read more

decor was pleasant, restaurant was loud, noisy, more like a sports bar. Chips were nothing special, Tostitos are better. salsa was mediocre. Taco salad was sorely lacking in cheese, beans & avocados( didnt find any), probably the worst taco salad I've ever had. Will not return. Too many other good choice's around read more

I finally had a chance to try this updated Mexican restaurant from its predecessors and was delightfully impressed. The atmosphere and music were colorful, cozy and fun. The service was attentive and we were a large table. We started with chips, salsa and an order of guacamole. The salsa was tasty with a good flavor balance. The guacamole was excellent with a noticeable lime citrus flavor. The entrees were all excellent. I had the burrito bowl which had wonderfully marinated steak that was tender, juicy and incredibly flavorful. Other entrees included the super burrito which what huge and amazing, delicious shredded beef tacos, a Mexican pizza and a steak quesadilla. All were outstanding in quality and value. We all took boxes home with us. Fun restaurant and great food! read more

Today was the second time we ordered food from blue cactus and the second time we were absolutely blown away by how generous the portions were, how wonderful the food tasted and the sides that accompanied each item were thoughtfully put together in our bag to go. I highly recommend blue cactus.They just know what they're doing. They have also introduced some fantastic lunch specials available Monday through Friday from 11 until 3 all for $9 dollars. They're also available to go. Can't wait to make the time to eat in the restaurant and enjoy an icy cold margarita . Keep up the good work cactus we will be back . read more

Love this place! Great food, great atmosphere and very clean. The chicken chili and los Cabo's were both great!!

We just found this place. Server was very nice and helpful. Chips were warm, salsa a little spicy. My wife ordered the beef chimichanga. I ordered the trio. Chicken flautas, steak Street taco and a shredded beef burrito. It was a Friday night and it was busy. Were seated quickly. The place is bright and cheerful. The manager stopped by several times and helped us with our selections. Lots of food, took half of it home. We'll be back. read more

This was a great find. Just opened. Try the Blue Cactus Margarita. It's their signature cocktail, a nice classic margarita made with Reposado tequila and a unique light blue hue. Food came out quick and the portions are big. Good variety of vegetarian items or things that can be made vegetarian with a few modifications. I did a fajita veggie quesadilla. It's as big as your head. This place was hopping. Nice addition to the area. I'll definitely be back. read more

I stopped in for a carryout order and decided to have a margarita while it was being prepared. The hostess insisted that I needed to make 2 transactions, 1 for the food, and 1 for the drink. I ordered the house margarita in what the bartender called "fun size" (same as the medium at Don Juan) and dropped a $20 on the bar. I got $2 change. read more

Really cool spot. Decoration and ambiance seem very well thought out. We were excited to try this place when it opened and it did not disappoint. I think I might've just had the best margarita and I've had alot of margaritas. It was the blue cactus margarita and I had them add some serrano peppers to it. Food was excellent and good size portions. They just opened and still getting the hang of things but staff was super freindly. Super Burrito A++ read more

Service was extremely slow-took almost a full hour to get our meals. Waitress was meh. Chips and salsa were delicious and it's a good thing because the food was tasteless. I got the taco salad and it was a bunch of huge pieces of iceberg lettuce, green pepper, a bit of cheese and olives. The shell had refried beans on the bottom and it tasted like cardboard. My husband's fagitas were decent but again not a lot of flavor. My son's chicken street tacos were so dry and bland he didn't eat them. I give it a 2 but only because its cute decor and great chips. read more

Excellent waiter his name was Chris. Excellent food, clean and bright nice atmosphere would definitely return.
