    Chips & Salsa
    Tiffany W.

    This place has been around for so long! I remember it when I was younger. Moving back to Lexington I didn't think it was open anymore, but it was and now I know why! The decor is still bright and colorful and the staff are still really nice. The chips were hit and perfect and the salsa was good. I ordered the CARNITAS MICHOACÁN and the pork actually was super dry.. I was disappointed but everything else in my meal was delicious. This will not detour me from visiting again and trying another dish. I was debating between this dish and another one so it gives me a chance to go back and try the other dish. I would highly recommend you to visit this little Lexington gem.

    Cheese Quesadilla

    Food was trash didn't even enjoy it: just ate it to not waste my money. Cheese quesadilla wasn't even melted cheese and the taco I ate tasted like it was leftover meat. Girlfriend ordered chicken and cheese and said chicken was dry. Don't waste your money here. I'd give less than 1 star if I could

    Acapulco fajitas

    Best restaurant during this trip to Lexington. Nice building with a lovely mosaic at the door with their name. Parking lot could use some work but that's the complex owner. Interior was bright, comfy chairs and large tables. The waiter was enjoyable and helpful. My companion liked that he spoke Spanish. Acapulco fajitas were amazing! Grilled pineapple, shrimps, scallops and fish with the traditional peppers and onions. And so much of it. Two of us ate it and still had food left. Companion had steak tacos. They were devoured quickly so he helped with the fajitas. Both were served with the usual beans and rice and toppings. All very good. Only misstep was the mango margarita. Wasn't a huge fan. But that just might be my personal preference.

    Cheese sauce enchiladas

    This is my go to Mexican restaurant. Mostly because it is close to my home, but also because I love their salsa. Meals are fairly priced and are decent. It won't blow your mind, but when you want me Mexican and you are on the East side, this is where you go. The only thing I wish I could change is the service. There are times I have waited for 20 minutes to be acknowledged by a server. Sometimes our refills are forgotten.

    Best frozen margarita in town.

    Ownership has recently changed. Not as well managed as previous owners. Food is still good but staff and service has deteriorated.

    Chicken tender salad... wilted greens, cold chicken, shredded cheese, onions, tomato and celery

    Ok, I'm going to 'eat crow' here. I was quite harsh on them 5 years ago. Since that review, I'm reminded of it each time I've checked in. It never fails, anytime I leave it up to a friend or business associate to decide where to eat, they choose here and I must admit that everything I've ordered has been delicious. The chicken Cancun used to be my go to here, but since I'm trying to stray away from the past, today I ordered the cheese steak burrito and it was phenomenal! The steak was tender and the burrito was huge! The pico and the cheese sauce were great too. You know when cheese sauce is thin and runny? Yeah, I hate that. Here, it's thick and perfect. See, I told you I was going to 'eat crow'... glad they proved me wrong.

    1 star because the service is TRASH. They all just stand around and talk to each other and never come back to your table. It's terrible.

    I stopped in at 2pm on a Saturday. I was the only person besides the owner. The decor inside is not…read moreyour traditional restaurant layout but what I've seen in Mexico where there a hand crafted items, piñatas, and some tables for eating but have no napkins or hot sauces on them. They are bare. I ordered from a very limited menu, jalapeño and bean tamales, refried beans and rice. The flavor of the meal was excellent. The tamales were wrapped in the corn husk and she did a great job heating them up, they were very moist. The beans served on the side were very dark brown. Almost like black beans but not. The rice was not your typical Mexican rice but a much finer and smaller grain, almost like basmati rice. Great flavor in everything. My only complaint and this is just me. I prefer a plate and real utensils for a $20 meal. Not paper plate and plastic ware. The beans and rice were reheated in their plastic container.

These are the best tamales I've ever had and the best guacamole I've ever had and I don't say that lightly. Maria was so sweet and helped me decide what to order since I had never been before. I love that the inside has all the fun stuff to look at while you eat. And they have jarritos and Mexican coke! Next time I'll have to get the ceviche since everyone is raving about that! I highly recommend Maria's if you're looking for an authentic Mexican.

The place is beautiful from the outside and the inside. It is a very modern establishment however, they have some unique qualities I hadn't seen in Lexington. For starters, they sat us right away even though it was busy. Next, we ordered a guacamole appetizer and someone came with a cart and made it fresh in front of us! I thought that was super cool since you also get to pick your toppings. The margaritas tasted amazing... it was truly a good ice cream base; I've had nothing like it. Their food is good, they have so many options and the portions are good but it is pricey. The vibe is super fun, it's like a genuine party. Definitely recommend to anyone who hasn't been. 10/10

This is only my second post, and unfortunately this visit was disappointing compared to our usual experiences. Our server was very friendly and attentive, which we appreciated. However, the beer came out warm, which was a rough start. We ordered the lettuce tacos and a cheesesteak quesadilla. It seemed like the food sat in the service window a bit too long -- the lettuce wasn't crispy and we had to ask for new lettuce for the tacos. The quesadilla itself was good, but it could've used some extra flavor. We also ordered hot sauce, but it wasn't spicy at all, which was a letdown. That said, we know what this place is capable of and this visit felt more like an off night than the norm. We'll definitely be back to give it another shot, because El Asadero is usually one of our go-to spots.
