A five star performance from start to finish. A warm welcome at the door, quickly seated, drink order taken and menu brought to the table. Felipe's is open space, comfortable booths, and it looked like the floors were so clean you eat off them. Nina, our server, was patient, attentive, and seemed to be one step ahead of us. Chips and salsa were served, a thicker style chip and a mildly spicy salsa, served in a mini carafe. I was happy to see Felipe's has a lunch menu, Mon thru Saturday. My wife ordered the lunch portioned Los Cabo's special, shrimp, grilled onions and mushrooms in a cheese sauce served with black beans and rice. Well seasoned, very tasty. I passed on my usual fajitas and ventured into the realm of enchiladas. The full order came with 3 chicken enchiladas smothered in a mole sauce. The mole was rich and sweeter than most I've had, but not overpowering. And what other Mexican restaurant offers a side of cucumber salad? I love the way Felipe's plates their food. Elongated plates for enchiladas, square plates for other dishes. They have a beautiful presentation. There's a QR code on the table that offers a free serving of queso if you post a review on their site. The only disappointment was the queso was brought to the table cold. We topped off our lunch with an order of Flan. Spectacular. There's something special going on at Felipe's. I'm confident you'll be more than pleased. read more

Stopped here for lunch while out visiting thrift stores! A definite language barrier made lunch a struggle. They served us two salsas, but failed to explain the difference. One was mild tasting. The other tasted like pure tomato sauce with 0 kick. The sprite served to us had no flavor and only carbonation. They kindly replaced it, but I'm not sure they understood why we asked for a replacement. The food was served very fast. It was as expected and good. We tried the chicken fajita quesadilla and a chimichanga. Despite the couple struggles, we really enjoyed our lunch! read more

Had a gift card and wanted to take my mom out for lunch one day. Service was excellent. Waitress was adorable and came and talked with us for a while. Decor was great, just wish I grabbed pictures. Some of the better Mexican food we've had at authentic Mexican restaurants. Will be back. read more

This place was pretty solid! I wanted to get some takeout and it took a little longer than I was hoping, but I still enjoyed it. I ordered the birria tacos and mixed fajitas. The birria tacos were on the higher end of the ones I've tried here in Louisville. The fajitas held pretty well for the next day when I had them for breakfast and lunch. The interior was pretty standard, decent, unassuming, typical to a Mexican restaurant. Plenty of space to have a nice dinner with the family. I'd recommend this place! read more

Felipe's Mexican Restaurant - Tacos de Birria - Mexican Near Me - Northfield, Kentucky

Servers are very attentive and friendly. Started with the chips and salsa. Salsa is served with mild and hot. Hot is not that fiery. House margaritas are perfect. I had the pollo with chorizo dinner. Served with rice, beans and 3 tortillas. The flattened chicken covered in chorizo and queso was large enough to have a second meal the next day. It was cooked to perfection. Service was not rushed as we sat quite a while for a birthday. read more

I ordered takeout. They didn't not give me the guacamole and pico de gallo for my lunch fajitas. When I called back in, the manager was unavailable. The woman I talked to sounded confused and disinterested that my order was wrong. Moral of the story: check your order before you leave the restaurant because you won't get help once you leave. read more

Love this place! This is our go to spot for Mexican. Staff is always uber friendly, service is quick (but you don't feel rushed ever). Super cheap beers! Domestics- 32oz draft is only 6.99, or a pitcher for 11.99. They constantly mail out coupons to homes in the area, so we literally always have one when we go read more

Amazing experience! From the moment we walked in, the service was outstanding. The staff was super friendly and attentive the whole time. The food... absolutely delicious! Everything was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and had that homemade flavor that makes you want to come back again and again. The atmosphere was cozy, clean, and had great vibes. Definitely a 5-star spot--one of my new favorites! read more

Food is kind of ok. Staff is polite and friendly. I think some of our fajita setup sat under a heat lamp for a while. The refried beans were a bit crusty. Fajita meat was under seasoned and overcooked. read more

Felipe's Mexican Restaurant - Christmas time :-) - Mexican Near Me - Northfield, Kentucky

Good food..close to home. Service was quick and correct. I've only been here a couple of times, but will definitely go back.

Stopped by to check this place out and we're really impressed! Their chops and salsa were tasty (hot sauce actually had some good heat to it!), and our lunches were both hot and yummy. We did NOT leave hungry. She had the crabmeat quesadilla, I had the chicken burrito and chicken taco. Both tasted fresh, were served quickly, and had us waddling out the door! We'll definitely be back!! read more

Sucked. Could not get website to take my order. So I couldn't rate any food as I didn't get to eat

Food is Ok. Use of coupons as a draw was deceptive. Discounted margaritas negates a 5 dollar coupon. Sent a letter to owner/manager with no response. No call, no email, no letter. No manager came to our table to do some PR. We go out to eat 5 times a week. Restaurants will be frequented based on response if and when we express concerns and have them addressed. This is a competitive industry; those who respond ... get repeat business ... those who do not lose. read more

Amazing quick fast clean diverse menu never had a bad experience here my husband and I come multiple times a month. Can't get enough!!

Lots to choose from on the menu. Frozen margaritas were really good. Not too tart. Service was pretty good. They weren't super busy, but I think our group overwhelmed them a bit. They did bring out a free dessert for our birthday girl. read more

Felipe's is my all time favorite Mexican restaurant! Their portions are fabulous, their staff is top notch, and their food is amazing! I have had multiple things on the menu, and I have never been disappointed. The Pollo San Luis is my absolute favorite! read more

Update: so, at one point I was a fan of this place. I wrote a great review for their shrimp chimichanga. But... very disappointed the past few times I've eaten here. The food has been so-so (very bland). And the customer service... non-existent. I went to lunch there this week... and the waitress was watching videos on her phone. Never asked for refills, etc. I'll no longer visit this restaurant. read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!! My chicken nuggets were actually tenders. And they were late. And cold. The fajitas were good but way to expensive. Cheese dip was okay at best Server was fine though but he only came out once so... Do not recommend AT ALL read more

Good deal with Xooker $50 for $25. Would not have done it at full price. Waitress was great. We both had beef chimichanga. The glitch was they were supposed to be shredded beef and we got ground beef. I didn't want to waste the food so we kept the meals. I was pretty happy otherwise. The beans were well seasoned like I like them. The rice I agree with her was a little dry. The chimichanga was pretty standard I also tried the fried cheese cake which was good but could have been better. They fried it from frozen, but it would have been better just refrigerated. The edges that cooked were delicious but the frozen center wasn't as good. The tea had good flavor and she said her margarita was good as well. read more

Felipe's Mexican Restaurant - Chimichanga Tradtional - Mexican Near Me - Northfield, Kentucky

This place was pretty good! The food was as expected at any similar restaurant, good but nothing spectacular. The portions did seem big to me though which was nice! Came here with friends because it's conveniently located for us. We were the only people there at about 4pm, and the service took forever. It was our server's first day ever as a server, and I don't think he understood the appropriate frequency to check on customers. The menu is HUGE and likely has any Mexican dish you're looking for. Prices are average to high compared to similar restaurants. I'd eat here again! read more

Good food. Huge portions. The hawaiian fajitas were really good. Service was pretty good as well

Went today for the first time and the food was really good! I had the birra quesadilla for lunch and it was so delicious! love the option for spicy or regular salsa too! read more

The restaurant was very clean, with nice decor, and a few cool architectural elements. There was also outdoor seating, which we did not expect. The service was excellent. Our server took care of us and was very polite. Our margaritas were good, but nothing special. Some of the chips were stale, but the salsa was very good. We got a steak burrito, the presentation was beautiful, but again, nothing special. I thought the beef was a little fatty. I'm not sure if we will go back, but it's always worth trying a new restaurant. For reference, we ate at the restaurant on July 28, 2021. read more

My family's new go-to Mexican restaurant! The first time I went I looked around and everyone was drinking sangria instead of margaritas so my partner and I tried the red sangria and the mango sangria and both were absolutely delicious. This is the one place where I will always go for the sangria over a marg. They also have good, really large burritos. It's nothing super fancy, but very solid Mexican food and pretty good service! read more

Could have gotten better tacos at taco bell. Place won't last long with those prices. Oh, the two stars were for the great service, none for the quality and price. Over $4.50 a taco approximately. read more

Terrible service!! Do not recommend at all! My friends and I went and one got nachos, 10 minutes after not even eating the whole thing, she was puking in the bathroom. My other 2 friends had fajitas, they were $30+ and very bland and cold. I got chicken nuggets, but they turned out to be chicken tenders. My rice had absolutely no flavor whatsoever, and I'm quite certain that it was the 60 second rice from Krogers. And the building...DISGUSTING. There were ants crawling all over the bathroom mirror! There was no condiments or anything on the table tops. There was no salt, pepper, ketchup, or hot sauce. If you want to save your stomach and your money, choose somewhere else to eat. read more

I get my lunch to go and i eat it at work, its literally 5 mins away. I order my food online and im there. My food is always cold or ice cold. I ordered a quesadilla and a burrito a la carte. The only thing hot was the spice in the salsa for the chips. I enjoy their food but expecting to come straight out the kitchen it should be hot not ice cold read more

Beautiful New Mexican restaurant on Lime Kiln! Menu is amazing. Food is terrific! Definitely will be a neighborhood favorite! read more

Oh my gosh, this place is fantastic. I come here for the chicken fajitas. I'd kiss the chef if I wasn't married. The cook on the chicken and veggies is amazing, there's a sweet crunch on them, I cannot say enough good things. And the staff is so kind as well. I ate alone today and my waiter sat and talked with me for a couple minutes and was so kind to keep me company. Highly recommend! read more

Went here for the first time last night and was very disappointed. Service was just awful. We sat at the bar for over twenty minutes before anyone even asked for our drink order. When we finally got a table it didn't get any better. The food was ok. Nothing special. The only thing that keeps me from giving them a single star rating was the chip girl. She was on her game. read more

Tried this place instead of el nopal and I would not recommend. Asked for a skinny margarita and they gave me a tequila sunrise without grenadine in it but still charged the price of a margarita. The food was cold like the rice was ice cold. I waited for the waiter to check on me so I could have the food reheated, but no one ever came. Finally I waved down the cashier after everyone else finished their food. He took my food away and it took longer to get it back then the first time I ordered. They gave me the check with out any discounts until I complained. I would not recommend. read more

So, we stopped by this place out of convenience as we were leaving a Ballard school event. Oh my, what a treat. This was a level above what you normally get at a Mexican restaurant. We started with the stuffed jalapeño appetizer. Both eaters agreed these were delicious. I ordered the steak and chorizo fajitas. The serving was huge so I had some to bring home. I heated it up and plopped it in a tortilla the next day and it was just as good as the night before. Both meats were great quality and the veggies were as well. My daughter had a quesadilla that I'm not going to be able to describe how phenomenal it was. From the crispness of the shell to everything that was in it, it was top notch. And it was pretty darn big. And the presentation of the food shows they aren't on the same playing field as the other Mexican restaurants in town. There wasn't a single thing I can complain about so I have to drop them a 5 star rating. Please go here. I want them to make it. The last Mexican restaurant at this location didn't. read more

They screwed up our whole order. Food that was received was terrible and soggy. Would not recommend to anyone I know when there are so many other better mexican restaurants around. After reading reviews of this place elsewhere after the fact, I realized we should not have ordered from them to begin with. read more
