Chilli relleno and chicken over rice.
Tony C.

Decent Mexican spot if you ask me. The food is really reasonable and the service is great. Our waitress made sure the drinks stayed topped off and salsa on the table. I got a lunch special that came with a enchilada, chili relleno, and beans. I added a tamale which I didn't care too much for. Seemed to be a frozen store bought kind but still edible. The wife had a chicken dishe that smothered rice. She liked it too. Kids were happy! We'll definitely be going back. Family of 4 ate for $37.11 can't beat that!

The service was great and the food was tasty, but it did not seem fresh. It seem like it was made the day before.

The staff here is so sweet. I came in back-to-back the first time ordering hot dogs. Yes, I said…read morehot dogs. I wanted hot dogs once I saw the picture on the menu. I knew if the hot dogs looked like anything in the picture, they would be good, and they were, and I got two. Now, with the staff being so sweet and the hot dogs being so good, I returned the following day. This time I ordered the fried fish, and we got another delicious dish of shrimp and chicken. The sweet hostess, the young girl, told me I would really like my fish if it were fried hard. Well, she was so right. It came out steaming hot, and the seasoning covered the whole fish from the outside to the inside. The skin was so crispy and crunchy, I left nothing behind. Also, as you can see, I ordered the same appetizer on both days. It's a cheesy sauce with chunks of meat inside. By far, this is a favorite too. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu soon.

I ordered a California Burrito to go. I asked if they use real guacamole or guacamole dressing…read more(like some other places). They said real guacamole. A burrito lunch special is $10. A California Burrito with guacamole, lettuce, tomato and sour cream is $15. When it was time for lunch, I noticed the burrito had a smear of sour cream, and very little lettuce and tomato, and NO guacamole. I called and they said they didn't have guacamole. It's a $5 difference. Mejor avisar a los clientes cuando faltan ingredientes. The burrito was tasty. But they should let customers know if they don't have the ingredients to make what they ordered, especially if they pay extra for those ingredients.

Everything we had was delicious, fresh and corn tortillas are handmade too. Table salsas were spicy and flavorful and I was so excited to see them instead of generic salsa. Our fav tacos were the fish taco, lengua and the shrimp. Our least fav was the chicken-it was a little over cooked and although it was still tasty...we preferred all the pork/beef options more. They don't have fountain drinks. Options are bottled in the cooler and you pop open your on tops...which is how it should be! They have Mexican coke in a bottle too! The highlight FOR ME was the pickled onion...I stan pickled red onion and their version is so damn good. Perfect crunch with a little bit of spicy heat and tangy-ness of the vinegar....*chefs kiss*

The menu was straight forward and I liked being able to see pictures of the food I wanted to order. My wife got tacos and I ordered a burrito. The food was great and tasted of authentic Mexican flavor. My order came with a side order of fries with my burrito and they were cold and unsalted. I would definitely recommend if you enjoy Mexican food, just skip the fries.

I can't say how much I love this place enough, but I really do. I spent the summer in this cute,…read moresmall, and quaint town with the best restaurants and people. So the day I visited was my last day in Georgia. I was brought here to say my thank you and goodbyes. I say my thank yous and goodbyes because the town was so good to me. But why couldn't they bring me to this place sooner? We started with the nachos and dip. Now, being here in Griffin, I know what that means. It means their dip comes with homemade cheese with chunks of seasoned meat, which is the best. Of course, another favorite, a theme of the many restaurants in this town, is the Ceviche Cocktail. Of course, I ordered that here at Amigos. It's a giant goblet with a homemade salsa mixed with lime, onion, cilantro, avocado, radish, and Jumbo shrimp, and I mean the freshest of shrimp--the shrimp decorating the rim of the glass. The Ceviche is zesty, spicy, and full of flavor. It's a mouthful of deliciousness! Next, I ordered the fajita quesadilla as my main dish! It was the most seasoned and colorful dish. It came out sizzling. I could hear the sizzle, smell the aroma of the season in the air. It's a mixture of steak and chicken, so tender, with mushrooms, bell peppers, and more. The white cheese melted perfectly on top, bringing more flavor to an already good-tasting dish. I didn't even use the tortillas. It can be a standalone dish. Now, I do like tortillas, but I felt like the tortillas would make me full, and I didn't want that. I wanted to enjoy and eat it all. It was my last day here! The inside is beautiful; a lot went into the decor of this restaurant. It's a Mexican restaurant, and it felt like we were in Mexico. I love the music and the staff, and there was so much camaraderie among the staff and customers. We came after the lunch rush, and it was only a few of us here, and the staff treated us with the same care, checking up on us as if it were lunch hour. I love that, and I'm going to miss this place and the city of Griffin. Thank you for your hospitality, the people, and your many restaurants!

The BEST salsa and guacamole we've had in a LONG time! The service is great too! Just passing thru…read moretown and thought it looked cute so we stopped. So glad we did. HIGHLY recommend

The cohesiveness of the staff, is phenomenal. Brandon and Michael were my service personnel, and the hospitality that they provided was nothing less than stellar. Seriously, I've dined at a ton of upscale eating establishments, but these guys are five star / Michelin star restaurant type of staff, minus the vest, cummerbund and bowtie Think I'm lying? Look at all my reviews. I'm staying across the parking lot at the rat roof inn. I've stayed in this hotel before, and have seen this place multiple times throughout the last year, I can't not see it, because it's directly outside my window on the third floor, but I'm just so overly critical about my Mexican food and never came in, but I did today. I really wish I would have given this place a try before. Anything less than four stars about this place is an absolute robbery. Even from a stranger. The amount of unity in this restaurant is uncanny, it definitely has a small town vibe (sorry, I HATE using that word). These guys know everybody, and it seems like everybody knows everybody! So seeing so many people as repeat customers is obviously a good sign. Michael and Brandon made me a very generous jalapeno margarita.. I'm a drinker, daily drinker, liquor, and after throwing this bad boy back, I was definitely feeling like a smooth barracuda! I sat there for a good couple hours. Conversating with other restaurant goers at the bar. Everybody is just so nice, that is why I love the South. I'm only pulling one star, because my food was cold. I hate I hate I hate to say that, because everything else was so spot on. Even in the middle of my rice it was a little bit over room temp and my enchiladas weren't melted at all.. I was going to ask them to take it back and heat it up a little bit longer, but as the night went on they got really busy so they were hustling and bustling taking care of other customers. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm here in the area. You guys have a great staff, and I know the food is good, a lot of the food that they carried by me to other tables was actually sizzling. I might have just got the bad luck of the draw. ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.
