Came here for taco Tuesday/cinco de mayo- which could explain why we waited 20-30min at our table before seeing our waitress to order. When they brought the chips and salsa, they offered us spicier salsas. While they were spicier, I thought the milder salsa had better flavor. The margaritas were ok, there was barely any tajin on the rim. We ordered the mocajete and camarones dish. It was a lot of food, and the flavor was great. My husband said his chicken was really tender. The sauce my shrimp was in had the perfect spice level for me. read more

Cool vibe and nice looking restaurant inside. Food was a little bland for all three of our meals. Probably won't be back. Lots of other options around. read more

It was OK. We probably won't be back. When you walk in you smell that old building smell. It felt like the vibe was missing something. It seemed dark and drab. The food was just OK. I guess I expected a lot more. They have great menus! The service was OK. The dinner crowd was starting to arrive. It was a Friday afternoon. read more

The food is delicious. I ordered the quesadillas with chicken. It was filling but I didn't leave stuffed. We were seated upon arrival and drink orders were taken. The kind server came back within a reasonable time to take our food order. It was a good first experience. The restroom was decent. The restaurant wasn't crowded. read more

Headed to Cali for a football game and came here for breakfast. The chilaquiles, red, were awesome, probably the best I have had yet. The refried beans were very good. My wife had the chorizo and eggs and enjoyed them. The prices are extremely reasonable for the good quality food you get. We were just here 2 days ago for dinner and this will be our New Mexican food hangout read more

We have came here a few times since our first visit and every time we have absolutely loved our food and service, for dinner or brunch this place is so wonderful. My picky 1.5 year old loved his food so much he even licked his plate when he was done. We bring family here when they come to Arizona to show them this place because it's our new favorite place to eat and it's never too busy. Would give them 10 stars if I could. read more

I would highly recommend their taco Tuesday special. All you can eat street tacos and they're actually good. The owner and his family are super friendly and make you feel welcomed. 10/10 for this place, I would recommend anybody go here read more

Our family is pretty picky when it comes to Mexican food. This is definitely AUTHENTIC Mexican food. I was a big fan of the chicken mole. My MIL was a fan of their Menudo. Will definitely come back with the family. The vibe was great with current music and a beautifully designed dining room. Service was also great read more

Main Street Buckeye is a place out of time and Casa de Leyva fits right in. It's authentic, feels like it's been waiting for you a hundred years. You step on the dirt parking lot, enter through the back, and before you pull open the rough hacienda style doors, you're already living the experience. If you sit at the rustic wood-plank bar, ask for a tall beer and crunch on their tortilla chips while they pour you a massive drink. Despite the feel, they're new, so we'll see how they do in real time, but if you're looking for a unique experience, it's worth stepping off the concrete malls in the suburb. read more

Casa de Leyva - I asked for a tall Modelo and I got what I asked for, this tall and extra-wide; so wide it had three limes. - Mexican Near Me - Buckeye, Arizona

The food is fantastic. My wife and I visited recently and loved our meals. Service was great and the food was some of the best Mexican food we've had in the West Valley. read more

Best Mexican food in Western Phoenix Iwe have had Outdoor patio is the perfect place to sit in from September thru May And servers are five star read more

The business is under new owners with a new menu. They have just opened, and have some kinks to work out. Service was great with our waitress, but there were just 2 waitresses and the place was pretty busy at lunchtime. I'm hoping in time, that they consider doing some lunch specials. That would be my only "complaint". We have very few sit down places for lunch in Old Town, but it was almost $50 for 2 meals and 2 sodas, as they were dinner portions. I'm excited to try it out in a few more weeks and hopefully see some lunch portions. read more

Food has plenty of flavor I had steak and no knife, food is high price but missing the extras that other restaurants add to make it a full meal. I don't see how this place is still in business $4.00 for a soda and they ran out. Downtown Buckeye is so disappointing it will Soon be forgotten due to high prices for low quality. Don't get me wrong the people were nice and the food tasty but it's 60% overpriced for what you get, stay home don't waste your money. read more

Bella our waitress was very nice. The tacos dorados were excellent and highly recommend if you like crispy tacos. Had a side of guacamole which was pretty well made and the habanero salsa is the best but be careful, a little goes a long way. Now for the drinks, not to my liking. Had a margarita and my husband had a mule. He drank his but I sent mine back.. Bella was nice enough to take it off the bill. Now with the negative said, it doesn't change the fact that the food is good and building is super cool. read more

I came here a few weeks back the City of Buckeye had a "Taco" event with City councilmembers.. the tacos were good and i had a few mixed drinks also delish! I'll have to come check other menu items soon! The bartender was great she recommended the drinks she made. Also the staff overall very welcoming upon arrival & attentive throughout the visit. read more

Stopped in for lunch and wow- what an experience! Tacos were overflowing with juicy, perfectly seasoned meats - not just a sprinkle but absolutely packed. Every bite was full of flavor and satisfaction. I didn't try it this time, but they offer all-you-can-eat Taco Tuesday for just $19.99. Definitely coming back for that! If you love tacos done right, put this spot on the top of your list! read more

The 4 star rating is only because the morning breakfast crowd ate all of the menudo; otherwise a 5 star is warranted. My party of 2 arrived near noon but breakfast was still being served. We ordered potato taquitos appetizer which is served with guacamole on a bed of lettuce. Tasty but I would prefer more seasoning on the potatoes. My wife had the pozole with beef And served with corn or flour tortillas. Beware: the soup is served in a huge bowl. The broth is a bit spicy and very flavorful. The meat was flavorful and tender and they didn't skimp on the amount given. I had beef chilaquiles with green salsa and 2 eggs. The steak was a good sized portion and perfectly cooked for my taste. The flavor was wonderful. The service was great; our server was friendly and attentive. We also spoke to the owners who were very friendly and gave us a brief history of the restaurant. The ambiance is what I would describe as rustic with a large open space for seating and I high ceiling. There is also a bar for those who want to have a drink as you wait for your table. All in all we enjoyed our meals and the experience. read more

Food was horrible. Salsa had no flavor and the chips had a weird taste. They messed up our orders we ordered a wet burrito with green sauce and green enchiladas they brought both dishes with red sauce and I ordered steak fajitas and the steak was bloody raw. I sent those back and got chile rellanos which were rubbery and not even fried. On top of that it was extremely pricey. Needless to say we will not be going back there again. I'll stick with la fiesta read more

Beautiful restaurant and amazing food. The customer service is so friendly and welcoming. This is a new favorite - will be back ofter. Rami's costillas (pork spare ribs) en salsa verde was amazing!!! read more

I really wanted to like this place... the host was so friendly and it looked delicious based on the reviews. When we ordered we got the empanadas, then we waited and they didn't come back to take our order for like 16 minutes. It wasn't even busy, but I mean that wasn't a big deal but with a combo of factors it made our experience mid.. I will say the empanadas were delicious, so I was thinking that was good sign so I got the cheese enchiladas after waiting for a while, and the molé sauce was yummy, but the rice had hard bits, and not in a toasted rice kind of way more like some pieces maybe undone? And then the beans had this weird metallic/sour taste. Then after all that when we're paying I see on the check it was $2 to sub cheese instead of chicken for the enchiladas. It wasn't noted on the menu and felt like a sneaky tack on.. I don't even get how cheese is more since it cost less than chicken? So I ended up paying a little over $20 for cheese enchiladas.... I just feel like that's incredibly over priced for the small portions you get. My bf did not like the meats in his taco trio, he notes that the chicken especially almost made him gag. I really wanted to like this place and find a new Mexican spot but I just did not have a good experience. :( but I'm open to trying it again and if my experience changes I'll update my review. read more

Casa de Leyva - Perfecto Pozole soup!! - Mexican Near Me - Buckeye, Arizona

The only thing we liked was the chips and salsa. Enchilada, not good, fajitas not good, birria tacos not good..

Love this hidden gem! Glad they revived the old location and put their new spin on it. Te best margaritas. The owner is super friendly and personable and even comes out and has a personal conversation with you. Recommended several friends there and they recommended their friends. Lad it's in Buckeye. Keep up the great work. read more

Food is ok. Nothing to go back to. The cafe de la oja is not good. Service is also slow. We will not be going back. La fiesta is way better.

Honestly..... idk how people think this place is amazing it's complete trash!! Don't waste your time or money! The food, service, and environment lacked so much effort. read more

Decided to give this place a try since it changed ownership (strongly disliked La Placita). We were hoping there would be an improvement in the food but unfortunately that was not the case. The salsa was the worst I've ever had, even the jar of Pace salsa from the store is better tasting than this one. I ordered the carne asada tacos and I couldn't eat them all because the meat had such a weird sour taste. My kids got burritos and they couldn't finish them either because of the weird taste of the meat. It was a very expensive disappointing meal. The only reason it gets 2 stars over 1 is because the service was good. read more

I took my grandson to lunch. Great service, the restaurant and the bathrooms were clean. Sonia our waitress did a fine job outlining the menu. The food was outstanding, much improved from the previous owners. I thought the prices were very reasonable considering the high quality of the meal, service, and atmosphere. I think they will be serving Buckeye for a long time...a quality Mexican food restaurant. read more

Was so excited to try this place out and they delivered! Highly recommend the Molcajete, tastes like home away from home!! Will definitely be coming again soon! read more

We went on Saturday and it was PACKED. A lot of people were turned off by the wait (which was no more than 30 minutes) and left, but we stayed because we were so happy that they were busy like that! Good for them! The service was fantastic, everyone we spoke to was able to help out when we needed it and were so sweet. Food was great and quick, even though it was busy. It was loud since it is a bit of a smaller place, but that totally was to be expected with every table filled inside. We absolutely will be back! read more

Been here with the family a couple of times now on the recommendation of friends. As other reviewers have mentioned, the rice and beans are the same as La Placita Cafe served before closing. The salsa that comes with the chips tastes like picante salsa out of a can, blended with pepper. Our server on the first visit recommended asking for the spicy salsa next time We tried the green, and nope, that had the same bland fresh out of jar flavor. The Carne Asada plate was good. Quesadillas are just ok. I'm not a fan of having sour cream cooked inside. read more

The tacos taste old the beans taste like beef broth the rice has no flavor the red chile taste like can red chile but the people are really nice. read more
