    Carne asada, shrimp and chicken, with beans, rice and tortillas. Yum!
    C H.

    Who knew Little Mexico was alive and well in Wyoming/Byron Center? We used to go to the short-lived Allendale restaurant from Grand Valley (1970's) and enjoyed the Bridge Street restaurant for decades. This new shop has different ownership and an updated menu, but still all the touches of the original. The salsa is outstanding. Our sever was a little stoic at first, but she warmed up and provided us with an excellent experience.

    Taco dinner special with an ice cold Modelo Negro.

    I sat at the bar and enjoyed fast service that was also friendly. The taco special was a dinner with three meats, I chose carne, al pastor and carnitas. My favorite was the al pastor, so tender and flavorful! Nice place to grab a cold beer as well.

    Taco Tuesday at Little Mexico! Great meal, large portions, and great value. Favorite Mexican place in west Michigan, they never miss! Very fast service and unbeatable flavor.

    Steak Fajitas
    Ron S.

    Overall, nice little place. The service was excellent. I suggest getting there before 5 for the drink specials. Anyways, the comp chips and salsa were excellent and carried this visit. It gave me high hopes for the rest of the meal. At $19, I thought the fajitas were a good value so I ordered them. Lots of meat & veggies. However, the steak had zero flavor. Thankfully the other stuff made it okay. A very little splash of sour cream - got charged extra for it which was a weak move. Rice was typical dry, over warmed side. Beans were okay. I had a solid 3 for this place, but the chips-salsa-service takes it to a 4

    Did you know that Lindo Mexico has the best salsa in the world?! It's absolutely my favorite…read morebecause they actually roast the veggies they blend together for salsa. Try it; you won't regret it. Did you also know that Lindo Mexico is a woman owned business? I love that, and want to show them some love this month while Yelp supports women owned businesses. Stop by Lindo Mexico sometime this month and enjoy a delicious meal (I specifically adore their burritos, tacos and camarones meals). If you come on a weekend you may be privileged to watch a free mariachi band during your meal. Enjoy! Cheers!!

    We stopped here for cinco de mayo. It was busy but not too busy. We got seated right away…read more The atmosphere is decorated in a very festive manner with cool wall art covering many walls. The waitress was friendly and busy. The seating was a little tight depending on where you sit. Our table was almost blended into the one next to us. The food was good. The menu is partially in Mexican, so be prepared to either use a translation app or guess what you're getting based on photos. We ordered or thought we ordered the #9 lunch but got something a bit different but still very tasty. The plate was full of all the standard stuff, beans, rice, salad, main dish. The chicken under the cheese was delicious and moist. The beans and rice were flavorful without being dry. The salsa was unique. It was something of an acquired taste. The margarita flight was delicious! The prickly pear and traditional were our favorites. The blue one was a close second or third. The mango with the spicy rum was our least.

    Taco Tuesday at Poncho's Tacos was so good! I'd never been before as it's a bit far from my house,…read morebut it was totally worth the drive. It's cash only, but they do have an ATM inside. The menu consists of your typical items like tacos, burritos, Panchos (nachos), tortas, and more. They also have a lunch special and a daily deal (3 tacos, rice, and beans for $12.50 but no mix and match proteins). Since it was taco tuesday, tacos were $2.50. Nate got three tacos (al pastor, asada, and tinga) and I got a wet burrito with asada. We also ordered a horchata to share and chips and salsa. They have some dine in space but were doing a lot of takeout orders while we were there. Our chips and salsa came out first and the rest of our food shortly after that. The tacos came without toppings since you can load them up with their salsa/toppings bar. The tacos were super stuffed with meat! The burrito was massive - we shared it and still had leftovers for the next day. I tried each of the tacos and they were all delicious. The meats were not dry and again the portions were generous. I really liked the burrito as it was full of meat, cheese, beans, rice, guacamole, lettuce... it had it all. I wish the fillings were mixed up a bit more but it was so tasty. Service was great - we were asked how our meal was and they cleared our table when we were done. I'm really glad we finally made it to Poncho's Tacos and will definitely keep them on my Taco Tuesday list for the future!

    Pros: Best tacos in GR we've found, Taco Tuesdays Cons: some…read moredishes are overpriced, cash only My hubs is always on a mission to find tacos like the ones he loves in CDMX. These are amazing. His former favorite taco place, El Cunado, are skimpy on filling and he didn't care for their pastor (his fav). At Panchos he is in HEAVEN! He LOVES the Al pastor tacos here and on taco Tuesday they are $2.50 each. We both also really like the Asada. I also got a small rice, but prob wouldn't order again. It was $2.50 for maybe 3/4 of a cup. The online pics show a bigger box, but that wasn't the serving I received. It is cash only so be prepared. If in a pinch, there is an atm onsite!

    (5 stars? That's adorable. I'd give 47.)…read more I came to Pure Mex expecting tacos. Instead, I had a spiritual awakening. Our server, Ruth, did not simply "wait tables." Ruth orchestrated an experience. I am now convinced she exists outside the normal laws of physics. I'm fairly certain she can hear when a tortilla is overcooked from three zip codes away. Before I even realized I wanted another drink, Ruth had already appeared beside the table like some kind of benevolent taco guardian. I blinked once and the salsa was refilled. I blinked twice and somehow my life had direction again. The food? Incredible. But honestly, I would've eaten drywall if Ruth recommended it. That's the level of trust she inspired. Scientists should study her efficiency. NASA should recruit her. The Olympics need a "Hospitality Decathlon" because she'd retire undefeated. If she ever decides to run for president, I don't care what her platform is. She has my vote. At one point I said, "This is probably the best taco I've ever had," and Ruth smiled with the calm confidence of someone who already knew that would happen six months ago. I genuinely suspect Ruth is running at least four restaurants simultaneously using advanced cloning technology. There is no other explanation. By the end of the meal I wanted to stand up and applaud. Not because dinner was over--but because I had just witnessed greatness. The tacos were phenomenal. The margaritas were fantastic. But Ruth... Ruth is the reason legends are written. Future civilizations will uncover this Yelp review and assume she was a mythical figure, like Hercules, except armed with chips and salsa instead of a club. If you visit Pure Mex and Ruth is your server, cancel the rest of your plans. You're about to experience customer service so elite it should probably require a waiver. 10/10. Would gladly drive across state lines, through a snowstorm, and possibly a minor volcanic eruption just to have Ruth ask me, "Would you like anything else?"

    4.5/5 Stars Pure Mex…read moreTacos & Tequila in Grandville was a great experience from start to finish. We kicked things off with the shrimp ceviche--and it honestly felt like there was a pound of shrimp in it... okay, maybe not quite that much! It was loaded with fresh shrimp, had incredible flavor, and was beautifully presented. A fantastic way to start the meal. For the entrée, the carne asada was cooked to perfection. The steak was tender, juicy, and full of flavor, topped with plenty of perfectly grilled onions. It came with authentic rice, beans, fresh avocado, guacamole, and warm flour tortillas, making every bite even better. We also tried the carne asada tacos, and they were outstanding. Topped with fresh pico de gallo, cilantro, and a light drizzle of crema, they were simple, authentic, and packed with flavor. The complimentary chips and salsa were fresh, crisp, and exactly what you hope for at a quality Mexican restaurant. The service was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. They also have a huge bar, and my Tito's & Sprite was served ice cold--the perfect pairing with the meal. To finish, we shared the churros served with warm chocolate dipping sauce and whipped cream. They were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and the perfect sweet ending to a great meal. Pure Mex offers authentic Mexican flavors, generous portions, a fun atmosphere, and excellent hospitality. It's an easy 4.5-star experience, and I would definitely return to explore more of the menu. If you're in the Grand Rapids area, this is a spot worth checking out. Pure Mex Tacos & Tequila 4553 Canal Ave SW Grandville, MI 49418 @TheFoodie99 #restaurant
