    Ala American Taco
    Miranda B.

    Got delivery, was fast, and still warm when arrived. The American tacos are amazing, full tacos with lots of meat and toppings!

    Tamale

    Usually good but this is what you get when you buy a "tamale". Typically a good restaurant but this is ridiculous

    The ambience is great and service was amazing especially during lunch hour. I got enchiladas verdes, and I felt like there was not enough sauce and just a good plate of food.

    Chips and salsa brought out for the table

    Friendly service, great tasting food, and a casual vibe! They brought out a big sombrero and sang for my husband's birthday! Their food tastes very much like authentic Mexican cuisine that I used to eat when I lived in San Diego. Their margaritas and other drinks were strong (not complaining!). Their parking lot is small, and if you blink while driving down busy Van Dyke, you'll miss this quaint spot, but it's the perfect place to satisfy your Mexican food cravings.

    Pork Tamale & Taco Traditional (Pastor)

    Mexico City is a good overall restaurant. There will most likely be a wait for dine in during peak hours. The staff is sufficient, and the atmosphere is causal. There's little to complain about when it comes to the food. It's not the best Mexican out there, but it's better than average. Portion sizes are more than fair, as well. My favorites are the nachos and the tacos, specifically the al pastor and barbacoa.

    CHICKEN FRIED QUESADILLAS

    I went to Mexico City restaurant with my boyfriend on a weeknight. The parking lot was busy, and it was fairly difficult to park. When we walked in, we were seated right away. It's decorated with bright Mexican colors. Once seated, They brought chips and salsa to our table and let us know which was hot and which was mild. We tried both and if I'm honest I felt like both of them were too spicy. The menu has several options. We ordered the queso dip as an appetizer. It came out quickly and was pretty good. Very creamy. For dinner both my boyfriend and I ordered the chicken fried quesadilla because it looked like it would be good. They were only ok. They really lacked salt, and my boyfriends were kind of burnt. They came with rice and beans (I asked for no beans), and the rice was only ok - it wasn't bad, it just needed more flavor. For dessert we both ordered the fried ice cream. It was pretty good. The chocolate sauce with the ice cream and the fried tortilla really hit the spot. The service was pretty good, the waitress kept our drinks full and checked on us regularly. Overall, we would go back to try other items on the menu.

    If you visit Taco Bell or El Charro, you're supporting a corporation. If you visit this place…read moreyou're supporting a family. My wife and I have been running errands and wanted to try something new for supper and found this place on yelp. When we arrived it seemed a little quiet, but the hostess/waitress quickly appeared and showed us to a table. From there everything went smoothly. I opted for a plate of enchiladas, and found them to be very well prepared and seasoned. The salsa had that wonderful tomato forward texture to it that I enjoy very much. The room is small, and it's clear that they get most of their business on carryout. That being said I think if you showed up with a somewhat larger party they would be glad to take care of you. They certainly took good care of us.

Being that I'm on this side of town for a few days, I figured it was finally time to check it out. The location's much bigger with more seating than the Rochester Hills one. Nicely decorated with ample seating, you order at the counter and they run the food out to you. Not sure if they have waitresses or not, but that's how they were running it when I was there. I asked if they had Birria tacos and the man behind the counter said they do, just not on the menu. I ordered the taco dinner with shredded beef, rice, beans and a glass of water. I got served chips and dip which was okay, but the salsa was a bit runny for my liking. The "hot" salsa was good, and wasn't overpowering. Eventually, my food came out and it was a huge portion! I was impressed with all three tacos, rice and beans. It was only $13 on the menu, so I was happy with how much food I was served. The beef was a little on the dry side but still fairly good. Rice and beans were decent, but the music was a bit on the louder side. I docked a star for the meat being a bit dry and louder music considering it wasn't really necessary. The man who rang me up was super nice and friendly and also went through the menu with me since I had a few questions before ordering. Overall, a decent meal for the price and I'd return in the future.

Our waitress was rushing us and impatient. Making me irritated. And for some reason, maybe it's just me(and my 1 girlfriend) but I was offended by the staff's attire. Most of the young server/waitress girls had crop tops on, one even had see through yoga pants on. I was so upset I was ready to leave but my girlfriends wanted to stay. Another thing, the menus were wet. At least they were clean. There was food on the seats, the table was wet as well. I did eventually order the $3.00 tacos, which consisted of lettuce, a squirt of sour cream and beef, with soft shells. I ordered guacamole that made it better. The guacamole was DELISH. Oh and they AUTOMATICALLY add 20% for tips per person!( WTF). Maybe if they PAUD the staff better they wouldn't charge so much. Well my friends, if you do go to this place I hope you have a better experience. Until next time, keep Yelping my friends.

I've…read morebeen coming here for over five years, and at this point, it is one of the only places I'll go when I want tacos because everything else tends to leave me wondering why I didn't just come here in the first place. The tacos are every bit as good as people say and the environment is clean and relaxed, they usually have some good music playing too. Authentic, flavorful, consistent, and made with care. But the birria is the real star for me. Hands down, it is the best birria I've had anywhere in Metro Detroit. Rich, tender, packed with flavor, and exactly the kind of thing you think about again later like it owes you money. The owner is also genuinely one of the sweetest people. He remembered my order after only a few visits, and that kind of personal touch makes the place feel even more special. I usually stick with my Mexican Coke, but I love that they have their liquor license now, because a margarita or Corona with the food is a very solid upgrade. I've brought a bunch of people here and sent a whole handful of others, and everyone has said the same thing. It is some of the best Mexican food they've ever had. One of my friends even said it was better than what he had in California and Mexico, which is a bold statement, but Que Pasa can handle bold statements.

    The NAME IS COOL!…read more The ambiance is fun and I love the odd decor. Antique chairs and taco pillows. Cool signs and vibrant photos. Plus a sauce wall with many different sauces to try. Service is good the cashier was pleasant and friendly. I happened to stop by on Taco Tuesday while visiting the Detroit Burbs. With a name like Taco Kings I expected amazing tacos. These were quite disappointing. The daily special was blah and the tacos were mediocre. My friend told me she enjoys the nachos and quesadillas here. I probably should have tried that instead of tacos. That probably was my sign and a hint to try her favorites. The street taco (steak) lacked in seasoning and was a bit chewy. The Tuesday Special hard shell taco barely had cheese. It was loaded with tomatoes more than anything else. The meat wasn't well seasoned either. The tacos are definitely a NO for me. When and if I visit again I might try my friend's suggestions to see if the outcome is better. Prices are reasonable and it was tidy inside. All I wanted was good food like one of the signs said, but all I received was bad food. THE...Ambiance and Service were good and that was the best part of this experience.
