    Menu, side 1 -- January 2026
    Sarah W.

    Visited the location at Dutchman's Lane on a Sunday afternoon and enjoyed a wonderful meal. An order of Felipe's Burrito with option of chicken and a side of rice and an order of the same with option of steak and black beans and both were delicious. We had so much food that it was a bonafide day of rest and didn't have to cook later. Extremely affordable -- under $40. Basket of warm tortilla chips and small containers of mild and hot salsa were brought to the table to start. Large drinks and plenty of refills were served in the blink of an eye. Service is A+ with multiple friendly waitstaff checking in periodically without being intrusive. The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere with upbeat music playing in the background. Booth seating was comfortable and high partition dividers lent to an intimate space. Decor is bright and colorful. Easy access to free parking lot with plenty of space. Noticed the large outdoor patio dining area and looking forward to warmer weather to experience a return visit.

    My delicious chile relleno lunch special for only ten dollars!
    Elizabeth G.

    Did you know that this restaurant has $10 lunch specials? Today I got the delicious chile relleno lunch special. The chile relleno was spicy -- but not overly in my book -- and smothered in a tasty red sauce. The refried beans and rice accompanying it were tasty too, and the food was well presented. My server was nice and knowledgeable. Complimentary tortilla chips and salsa were provided for free as an appetizer. However, the tortilla chips tasted kind of like those communion wafers that I think taste like paper. Unless this restaurant upgrades, I recommend skipping or going light on those. I also heard really good things from a customer about the small Mediterranean restaurant next door.

    We haven't been to Felipe Mexican Restaurant and thought we'd give it a try. Service was prompt and friendly. Warm chips and two salsas (one spicy/the other mild) were quickly brought to our table. Water wasn't far behind. My wife ordered the Los Cabos Special and I chose lunch fajitas. Both dishes were served piping hot. My wife's shrimp were ok. Barely any seasoning. And a smaller portion than similar "Tex-Mex" restaurants. My steak fajitas were also standard fare, with one piece of grizzle mixed into the order. Flour tortillas were on the smaller side. The side dishes for the fajitas were the usual crisp lettuce, guacamole, rice & black beans. Felipe Mexican provided a decent lunch. Particularly for the price point. But nothing really stood out. It has a ways to go before it becomes a favorite.

    Stopped in here to kill time and was able to work on my laptop to catch up on some things. Service was quick, food was delicious. This is your typical Mexican restaurant.

    This was the first visit for our family. We were in the area to visit a family member who had surgery and this restaurant is near the hospital. Plenty of parking and we had no wait for a table. The menu offered a variety of items and slightly different than other Mexican restaurants. The queso and chips were standard. Watch out for the hot salsa - it is fiery! The kids hamburger was lackluster. The fajita tacos with chicken wasn't bad but I wasn't crazy about the mushiness of the vegetables. This spot is good for groups. Plenty of tables for small and large parties. Service is a bit slow. I'd come back if someone asked me too but otherwise this isn't a spot on my recommendation list.

    Gorgeous inside! Excellent furnishings and spotlessly clean! The waiters were friendly and served our food fresh and hot! Located just 5 minutes from St.Matthews mall. Definitely in the top 5 best Mexican places in Louisville. A must try!!!

    Kid's Cheese Quesadilla

    The atmosphere is very nice: well-lit, clean, and colorful. However, the food is awful. The fries are Wal-Mart's great value shoestring fries and the vegetables are steam in the bag ones.

    Jalapeño cucumber margarita

    I was pleasantly surprised by Felipe's. Enjoyed the ambiance and decor. Both the mild and hot salsa were really good and flavorful and chips were fresh. I had the jalapeño cucumber margarita and highly recommend along with the carnitas.

    This was a nice spot. It's hiding on Dutchmans lane behind the hooters. I gave it 4 stars because they did not offer tortillas with my meal. Other than that if you want a margarita to go. This is a good spot to grab one. Might go back again.

    Tacos Al Pastor and chicken tacos

    This is one of my fav Mexican restaurants they have such a cute patio which is so nice. The Al pastor taco was soooo they are going to be my new go to!

    Gracias la comida estuvo deliciosa! Thank you, the food was delicious! A beautiful space, with beautiful people and beautifully curated art paying homage to Mexicos culture and delectable cuisine. Las enchiladas de mole eran fantásticas. The mole enchiladas were fantastic. The best mole I've ever had - hands down. You can taste the spices and while it has a tang of sweetness it is not overpowering the important spice notes. Buen provecho!!! The Jalapeño margarita was made fresh, with just the right amount of kick! I could taste the Tajin I'm the salt rim. Felipes added additional jalapeños for those of us with the desire to pack even more of a spice punch! Vegan options, healthy options, the ability to adjust meals due to allergies. I look forward to making this our new neighborhood spot. Hasta pronto!

    IF YOU ARE ON A DATE ASK FOR PEDRO!!!!…read more I was on a date at this restaurant and when we asked for a check, instead of just asking if we wanted to split the bill, he positioned himself right behind my date and mouthed me the question so we wouldn't have to split the check. This is the first time a server has not only realized that I was on a date, but actively worked with me to make sure it went as smooth as possible. We paid the bill, left, and I made sure I gave bro a 50% tip. I've worked in restaurants for 2 years now and I've never seen a server as amazing as Pedro. If you're reading this Pedro, just know I will forever be grateful for saving me. oh also the food was really good

    I visited Veronica's for the first time last Wednesday night and now I know what the hype is all…read moreabout! I had been wanting to go for quite some time to try the Birria because I heard it is so amazing, and it really lived up to the Hype! Oh, did I mention they have the viral soft serve margaritas!?!?! I got the strawberry, it was so pretty, excellent presentation and absolutely delicious! I will say it was more like a dessert to me and I would have preferred to have it after my meal instead if before but that's just me. We got there between 6:30 and 7:00 and it was really busy, luckily our friends got there first and grabbed a table. They had already had a round of drinks while waiting on us but it took a while for anyone to come over to greet us or refill their drinks but again it was busy and everyone was helping everyone. We ended up splitting the birria platter and still had plenty of food to take home which we just ate last night as leftovers and were still absolutely fire!! I think the egg roll and quesadillas were my favorite over the tacos bc I love the melty cheese. I also ordered a small side of queso which was surprisingly a little spicy which I really enjoyed. They even surprised us when my BIL ordered a small margarita and it came out in a fish glass (see photo). It was so unexpected but also so cute at the same time ... it's really the little things like this that bring joy, okay? LOL This place was absolutely amazing and I can't wait to try it again.

When we arrived we had a brief wait before we checked in, and were seated on the second level. Our server was excellent, our service was quick and he was always around without hovering. It was bitter cold outside so instead of my usual margarita ($14+) I opted for a beer ($6). We started with the salsa trio, one of my favorites with handmade assorted chips. It includes three salsas, somewhat spicy, sweet tomato and tomatillo - the spicy and sweet were my favorites. Next we ordered the tacos el carbon and carbon burrito - pricing is expensive! We both ordered our steaks medium rare. My tacos had a beautiful presentation, the meat came out on a skewer and smoking from the hot coals. All toppings were repeated on the plate. The steak was overcooked and tough though. Had a nice smoke to it, but very chewy. My husband enjoyed his burrito but wasn't the best he's ever had. They also had a mariachi band walk around but they had "tips" all over their instruments and clothes. Overall we had a nice meal but the price point doesn't equal the food quality.
