Delicious!!!! Finally tried this place, happy we had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is welcoming and warm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff is friendly and helpful, especially Sally. I told her this was our first time here she explained about the buffet, (we went today Friday), how it works and what options we had. We saw online about the weekend buffet but didn't realize they also have it on Fridays, however, the weekend buffet has more items which include pancakes etc. Glad we had that. Sally and another lady checked with us a fair amount of time to see how we were and if we needed anything else, that's appreciated. The Chili Verde and Mole is absolutely delicious and authentic. The homemade tortillas are perfect. They have a dessert section as well, nice way to end a meal. Yummmm Thank you for a wonderful meal! This is now our number one destination for authentic Mexican food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is clean and the bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Mexican style buffet. It's packed, it's loud, and it's noisy. Not my kind of environment to say the least.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Let's start with the food...it's rushed and doesn't have that this came from abuela's kitchen. They do however have a wide range of food. Pupusas, crepas, tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas, mole, arroz, frijoles chicharrones en Chile verde, aguas frescas, refrescos. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have mariachi playing requested songs. It did remind me a lot of my trips to mexico.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]i didn't give them a five because some dishes need more flavor. Plus I didn't see any salad options for those of us that can't have to many carbs. If you don't have that problem give it a try. read more

The breakfast buffet was disappointing and did not feel like a traditional breakfast at all. Most of the food seemed more appropriate for lunch or dinner. Unfortunately, the staff member serving the buffet was rude, which made the experience even less enjoyable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was playing soft, romantic Mexican music, which would have been pleasant if it had been at a reasonable volume. Instead, it was so loud that it was difficult to have a conversation with the person sitting across from me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would not recommend this place for breakfast. It may be better suited for lunch or dinner, but based on my experience, I would not return. read more

OVERPRICED! The prices on the menu are not the prices they'll charge you at the register! They re-named the restaurant to Corazon Azteca. I remember why I stopped coming to begin with but my family wanted to eat here. There is no description in the menu of the items you'll order. Camarones a la crema are usually with Chipotle with creamy pink sauce. I was not expecting thia dish to have a white sauce that almost tasted like Alfredo. The mole is sweet and again its not in the description on the menu. One complement is the waitress was so nice and went above and beyond to wait on us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is very loud and family style. They had live Mariachi.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For the prices the plated food is not worth it. The buffet has many more options but is also quite expensive at $30 for an adult. read more

This is my second time at this Sunday brunch buffet and it's delicious every time! The cafe de olla is made to perfection, the little Mexican bread is so cute and delicious, the quesabirria tacos, enchiladas Michoacánas, menudo, etc. is all so delicious and flavorful. The servers are great and always so happy and caring to get everything you need. The atmosphere looks very like old Mexico vibes which is beautiful and love all the Frida Kahlo art work inside. Sometimes they have mariachi that comes to play at tables if you want for $25 a song. They have indoor and outdoor seating. There's plenty of shade and they have heating lamps if it's cold outside. read more

Hidden gem. Be patient if you go there during peak or with large groups. This place feels like Mexico. Authentic food and ambience. Great decor and beautiful table settings. The kitchen is small and there is usually one server on staff. They are great though. Wife and I sneak in during non peak for a quick date in the middle of the day. read more

We came here for the buffet on Saturday- day before Father's Day. They had lots and lots of food. You go around and choose what you want. They are preparing food right in front of you at the front and the back of the restaurant. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The enchiladas were made to order when I requested them and they were super delicious. We got chillaquilles, menudo and they had other foods as well. Pancakes for kids, fruit and sweets. My kids are so picky and I'm not taking them next time. They hardly ate and it is $17 per child. The ambiance feels like Mexico. Really nice and aurhentic. I'd come back again but without my kids lol. read more

Cocina Azteca - Menudo - Mexican Near Me - Ceres, California

I was impressed with the place. The service was very good. Servers were constantly walking by to make sure we were ok and had everything we needed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Down side is that there is no AC in the place. So it does get warm because they are cooking inside and out back in the patio[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The food was delicious. I had the enfrijoladas de pollo and they were delicious. My husband wanted a chile relleno inside burrito and that wasn't on the menu. They make chile rellenos, just not inside a burrito with salsa roja on top. So he asked if they could make it that way and the cooks were able to make what he asked. Delicious! I did see a lot of people getting the buffet but we decided to see the whole menu and just order one plate. We were pleased with the food. Definitely a place to keep on my list to go back again. read more

Rude front staff, not helpful. They did not seem to want to help us at all. I would say they need to work on their customer service.

Wow, what an experience. We went for Father's Day brunch and it was amazing. Everything was so delicious and cleanly displayed. There was food galore, I didn't even know where to begin and end. My absolute favorite things were the enchiladas and the pancakes. Everything was made to order. Definitely will be going back soon! read more

I love love loved my first visit to Cocina Azteca! It feels like having Sunday supper at your Abuela's house. Everyone is *so* nice! It's very clean and tidy. The service is great and everyone was really helpful when it came to navigating our first experience. We came for brunch and that is a great way to get to try a sampling of most of what they offer. The homemade tortillas and sopes are so light and airy they could float away. The lengua was cooked to perfection. The horchata and the champurrado both had such spiced depth--I've never tasted one so complex! Absolutely delicious! I can't wait to come back for lunch or dinner! read more

Now I have a reason to come back to Ceres California. I was just up here for the day and was hungry and found Cocina Azteca on Yelp and decided to try it. Was I amazed! I am definitely coming back when in the area again. I ordered the Taco Azteca with carne asada, beans, cheese, and sour cream and it was amazing. The steak was grilled perfectly and tender and very flavorful and the tortillas were homemade. Also had the Al Pastor taco and it was also was very delicious and filling. I would order both those items again but definitely the Taco Azteca was my favorite. After looking further into the menu, their are other dishes I definitely want to try, like the shrimp and steak dishes, as well as the breakfast brunch. Also loved that this location is right next to the freeway, easy access. read more

This place is underrated. Let me start with the attention to detail. The service was great and extremely nice. The restaurant is very clean including the restrooms. I, was very surprised there were changing tables for babies. Not many restaurants care about changing tables. Food was great.
