Food was delicious! Service was good! Atmosphere was delightful! I can't remember the exact names of our dinners. I was extremely hungry and simply wanted to dig in! Service was quick and food was quick to arrive! However, the food tastes like it took hours to prepare! The meat was sooooooo freakin tender! read more

I frequented this place when I lived here. I return when I visit home. Went in with my family and the service was lacking. It seemed as if the server didn't want to take care of our table! The food and cocktails were fine. Floors are very slick so beware. The server seemed ok and then midway through the meal, her energy shifted. I hope that she was just having a tough day. Can't say if I'll for sure come back whenever I visit again. read more

Food not good. Service is fair. I will not be going back to this place. Blah!!!!!!'nn

Los Comales on Madison was really good and hit the spot. I ordered two steak street tacos and they were seasoned just right, not dry at all. The meat was tender and had alot of flavor for something so simple. The tortillas were warm and fresh which made a big difference. I also had a strawberry margarita and it was sweet but still strong enough to enjoy. Everything came out pretty quick even though they were kinda busy. The vibe was chill and felt like a good place to stop after a long day. I'd def go back again for tacos and drinks. read more

Update. We have been back three times since i left my original review. It has been disappointing..ImThe service was terrible. We were a group & really we should have had more than one server but we didn't. It took forever to get our food & my in laws never received theirs. The next time we went back it was with a just four friends & the-service still was bad. I'm starting to think because they add their tip they just don't care I had to get up twice to ask for things we needed. Drinks were not refilled. I wasn't asked if i wanted another beer. We had to ask someone to find our server when we were ready to pay She never came back to check on us. So yea. I'm not impressed anymore. read more

Came for the Euro 2024 Finale, was super impressed with their margaritas and food. Quick, delicious and great value. Some critiques: the corn tortillas they make for the Gordita was fabulous, but the other corn tortillas they provide are kind of stale. The queso fundido is a cheese dip with chorizo whereas authentic queso fundido is very thick and served with fresh corn tortillas. Still, the food was delicious, the salsa was fresh and I'm a huge fan of their margaritas (tamarindo especially). The atmosphere is a mix of clientele, which is nice. It isn't too loud but had a cool vibe. Great spot. read more

I the Los Comales on Summer Ave but the one on Madison is nearer to me, so we go there sometimes. One of the reasons I don't like the one on Madison as well is b/c it is VERY noisy and hard to have conversations...even if you sit next to each other. Also, the menus are somewhat different. I think of the one on Madison as CA Mexican and the one on Summer as true Mexican w/some TX Mex, too. The quality of the food has ALWAYS been good on Summer but has slipped a few times at Madison. All that being said, the servers are very friendly and try hard to please and the food is really good, every time on Summer and usually on Madison. Since I only have one place to rate, I'd give the Summer Ave 5 stars and the Madison one 3.5-4.00. read more

The only thing that was good was the kiddos meal couldn't find the waitress very dismissive with us but gladly to serve other people and to try to get some else attention they shook there head like no where not coming over just to see what we needed had us still sitting here haven't got refills on drinks no chips not salsa she never came back that was rude (Francis) is her name never ask for her very rude Its a no for me read more

Great margaritas and great tacos! I went in with some coworkers recently when I was in town. The staff was nice, even though it was sort of a big crown all at once. We ordered margaritas pitchers and loved them! And I enjoyed my carne asada taco. The chips and salsa for the table was perfect. Their chips are delish. read more

Honestly I am not sure what happened around here (maybe the epidemic) but this place has gone from greatness to Mediocrity in just a few short years. This we do not take lightly, we can only say something like this after many months of second chances - we had to say something. The tables are home made and torn up, the wait staff came down substantially in crew size, and the kitchen is just not putting out quality dinners. Wish we could say that this was a bad night but this is how it is here now. Drink prices are good and the chicken Soup is elegant... but that's it. Good luck guys!!!! Was a favourite for years read more

First time here. I was downtown and since it was lunchtime I had a taste for a good taco. I ordered the marinaded pork tacos with all fixings on hard shell. The marinated pork with onions, cilantro, radish and limes on Mexican shell was delicious although not a fan of this particular shell. It was softer and my food kept falling out. I'm more of the standard hard shell type. The food came out hot and fast. The spicy guacamole mustard colored dipping sauce was excellent. The taste is amazing and if you love spicy this is highly recommended. I couldn't get enough of this and I'm not a big spicy fan. That big glass of tea helped cool my mouth down. The service was excellent, very attentive and friendly staff. The place is amazingly spacious and larger inside than it looked on the outside. Lots of seating and great for larger groups. Parking was on the side of the building between it and a thrift store which is my next stop. The 2 tacos were enough to fill me up but not stuffed. I had a great lunch in a relaxing atmosphere for under $10. The place was easy to get to right on Madison. I'll definitely visit here again and bring my friends. read more

Whether you want margaritas and chips or a full meal, this is a great spot! Their salsas are unique and flavorful, and I found myself constantly reaching for more. The most important thing I noticed was that the prices were extremely affordable compared to some other Mexican restaurants. I tried a Gordita for about $5, a margarita for about $7 and they were delicious. I can't wait to come back and try more! read more

This is a great place for groups because of the fast service and good food. I enjoyed the standard chips & salsa and the spicy green sauce was an added bonus. The Sangria Swirl is perfect for someone like me that enjoys the best of both sangrias and margaritas. My fajita rice plate had an adequate amount of chicken and veggies. I definitely recommend. read more

Los Comales has been a regular spot for dinner for the last couple of years. The green salsa is so good - love mixing it in with the regular salsa. However, the food is declining. Stopped in the other evening and husband ordered a torta cubana and I ordered the carnitas. Food came out quickly, as usual. However, husband said the cubana didn't have any flavor although it looked delicious. Carnitas is supposed to be pork cubes. I was served shredded pork with a LOT of fat. Once I pulled the first chunk of fat out, I lost my appetite. No offers to exchange, return, etc. I think we're going to let this one slide for a while before trying a return. read more

You can get excellent, just truly authentic and tasty Mexican food in Memphis. And that is NOT a given in most cities that aren't in the West/Southwest (large or small) . Case in point: Los Comales- which in English means "super excellent food" (not really but it should). We ordered takeout and had one of the best, oversized shrimp burritos that we've ever had (so... much... shrimp). But EVERYTHING (quesadillas, tacos, etc.) we had here was super tasty!! Not to be missed... read more

I ate a Steak taco salad with added shrimp! It was amazing! The shrimp was juicy and big and the steak was tender and seasoned to perfection. I was visiting from Chicago and I gotta find a place that can come close to that now. Best taco salad I ever had. read more

Went in on a Monday for lunch. Busy with numerous tables of blue collar diners (so I assume it's going to be good food). Quick acknowledgment upon entering. Service was quick, as well as turnaround of food after ordering. Delicious food. Easy to get vegetarian just by asking. All in all, an excellent experience. read more

Ok this is seriously some legit Mexican food. Stopped in town for a work trip and this was the quickest find and I'm so glad we stopped by to have lunch. Food was season good, chips weren't stakes and the salsa was pretty decent too. I'd stop by again. Service was quick and the food didn't take long to hit the table. Full bar and plenty of space for a lot of people. read more

What a gem. Some of the best Mexican food we've had. Margarita was tasty and had just the right amount of liquor. We tried some enchiladas as well as an asada chimichanga, all of the meat was well seasoned and left us wanting to make another appearance on out trip. Definite recommendation. read more

Great spot!! Food was amazing. I ordered an Alambre with no shrimp and it was delicious! Their green salsa is very good and spicy. I was not so impressed on the red one (but that's mainly because I like my salsas to be spicy). But my coworkers loved both. I ordered a skinny margarita, and it was definitely not a skinny margarita but it was good. The service was not bad not good. She never really even checked on us unless we called her. Had to ask for a couple of things multiple times. But she was nice. Just very forgetful. I'm from out of town but visit often for work. Great spot to come back to. read more

Our favorite Mexican though it's quite a distance from our house. It's just consistently the best. We go early before it gets loud. The Pallo Adobe is out of this world, chicken spinach, and a delicious white cheese sauce. Also love the taco salad, steak or chicken. read more

Five stars for the freshly fried chips and delicious jalapeno avocado salsa, the festive environment (everyone seemed like they were having fun!), the huge portions, the flavors, and the great prices. I wasn't sure if shrimp and cheese would go together but my shrimp quesadilla was delicious. So were the shrimp fajitas, which came in a giant portion with rice and beans and guac and tortillas on the side. Chicken enchiladas could have used more salsa verde because the chicken was a tad on the dry side. But staff are great, the environment is fun, and it's very affordable. I only wish I could've tried more things! read more

This place was a really pleasant surprise. I have been to a few Mexican restaurants since moving to the Memphis area, and this is one of the best places so far. I got the plate of costillas, and the plate was huge, with really good tortillas along with the rice and beans. Service was quick and friendly. It was around lunchtime on a Saturday, so take the quick part with a grain of salt. I got a tamarindo margarita, it was good, but I wish it had more Tamarindo flavor. I'll be back to try more. read more

Being from Texas we weren't expecting much. I've been going to TN for years and never recall eating any good Mexican food. We were pleasantly surprised. First of all the Margaritas were fabulous! Great selection of tequilas. The hot sauce was very good but the green sauce was very spicy and even better!! I ordered an extra bowl and poured on my entree. Started out with the guacamole which was very good. Could have had a little more spice but it was good. I had the Enchiladas Mexicanas which were delicious and my son had the fajitas. We left nothing on our plates. Dessert was good but they ran out of ice cream which would have made it perfect. The restaurant had a good Mexican ambiance and the service was good. If I ever travel back to Memphis we will definitely come back. I highly recommend this place. read more

The food, service, and vibe are always perfect!! I feel like Los Comales uses way more vegetables than other Mexican restaurants and they have better flavor because of it. I usually get the rice fajitas or the arepa. I have never had a bad experience here read more

Best Mexican food in town??? You people need to get out more! Quesadilla so greasy couldn't even eat it. $76 later, we all left with empty stomachs. Way overrated! read more

Had a taste for Mexican food and drinks so we stopped in. We started out with queso dip and salsa. It was really tasty. They also let us try this jalapeño style dipping sauce. Now i must say it was really good, but super hot so if you don't like spicy food stay away. My husband and I enjoyed though, lol! For the entree, I had a sampler that included quesadillas, chicken rolls (I'm sure that's not the official name, buffalo wings. It was super good and plentiful. I even had enough to take home for later. My husband had the Mex Mix nachos. They were delicious! They had 3 types of meat (chicken, steak, and shrimp). He did order another bowl of queso just to make them super cheesy and they were even better. Of course to complete the meal, I had a frozen house Margarita with salt around the rim (because who likes sugar around their rim? HA! Cool spot and I must say they are following all COVID19 regulations. Face mask, social distancing, etc. is all a part of their customs. read more

The overall quality and preparation of the Food was good, the cost per portion was a great value and the service was friendly and attentive. I can see why locals like this spot. The salsas and guacamole were good, the tortillas were fresh. The margaritas were ordered were prepared from a pre made mix, but tasty. The ambiance was clean and nicely decorated, the dual front doors kept being left open bringing in the cold, so sit away from the area if you can. read more

Best authentic Mexican food in the area. Came during lunch rush but were still able to be seated quickly. Chips and salsa were quickly brought to the table and drink orders were taken. We got two of the top shelf margaritas, which will be the only downside to the meal. They were just way too sweet. The chips and salsa are fantastic and the green sauce brought with them is to die for! I ordered a few different tacos and my boyfriend ordered the carnitas plate. Tacos range from $2.50-$3. The asada taco was my favorite with a bit of the salsa that was given with the chips. My boyfriend loved the carnitas plate, read more

Possibly the best Mexican restaurant in Memphis! I lived all my adult life in the southwest where Mexican food is a staple, so when I moved here I was disappointed by every Mexican restaurant I tried, until this one. I ordered a Ceviche and a Cuban Torta to go. The Ceviche seafood was good quality and fresh, and the torta packed with meat and avocado and really juicy. Their salsas are also very good. The food was tasty, the servings big, and the prices reasonable, that's a winning combination! read more

absolutely amazing service! good food and great vibes- i cannot recommend the mango drink and a good basket of chips and salsa enough

The most memorable part of this place is definitely the drinks, they were so strong and flavorful. I loved it. The prices were affordable and the food was decent, but I'm from Chicago and used to a more authentic Mexican food scene but it was good for what it was. The service was pretty bad. Not sure if it was because I was a solo diner or not, but I had to flag down someone several times because they kept forgetting to bring me things that I ordered. Most annoyingly, I waited for 15 minutes for someone to make eye contact with me after already having my food for silverware and the server wasn't apologetic at all for the lack of attentiveness. read more

I've never had better Mexican food than at Los Comales! My husband got the carne asada chimichanga (the guacamole was fresh and so flavorful) and I got the shrimp, chicken and steak enchiladas (I forgot the name of the meal). The food had so much flavor and all of it seemed made to order! The margaritas were fresh and delicious! The ambiance was welcome and the service was great! The only complaint I have is that it's not in St.Louis! read more

Been here so many times!! Their employees are great, friendly & welcoming! The seating is pretty open, we always go for a booth. The food is soooooo good!!! I switched it up this time, T-bone Steak with Shrimp, onions & peppers. Only $15.50 for all this food!! You definitely cannot beat that!!
