Holy crap i love this place. The food no matter what tastes amazing. I absolutely cant compare any other place to this except LaPena downtown kennett. Awesome Mexican restaurants. absolutely love read more

This use to be a good restaurant but, of late they have reduced the portion size . when I asked about the smaller size portion they suggested I could purchase more. Litterly the fried beans portion was so small it wasn't worth arguing. I just won't go back. My wife and I would go there three to 4 times a month. Maybe not a big deal to them but, I hope this post let's you know don't go small portion. read more

Never would have thought that this place would be so good... very reasonable... authentic taste... beer was ice cold! Great service...

Here I am again; clearly we didn't learn our lesson. The service was terrible. Such a shame because they have good food. It took forever for our fajitas to arrive. ...then waited even longer to get plates, tortillas and sides. :( read more

Very good food. Great service. Best guacamole I've ever tasted. Great drinks. Great prices.

Very slow service. We placed the appetizer order and asked the server to come back for the rest. We requested the server for crayons for the little one. She disappeared. We were not even offered water. She showed up 15 minutes later and said she didn't place the order yet. Got the appetizer to go just to be polite. Won't be back. read more

Excellent service! My family and I had a great pleasant time here. Friendly staff, they treat you like family. Food was authentic and great in all aspects, taste, price, quality and presentation. Would definitely recommend it. read more

Great to see a small business doing well in the community. This family run authentic Mexicanplace is the latest edition to the burgeoning Kennett food scene. Don't believe that there is a restaurant scene in sleepy little Kennett? Explain Lily, La Verona and Byrsa Bistro as new entires added to existing haunts like Portabellas, Talulas, Savona and the Half Moon. Trust me you may have to remove the sleepy from sleepy Kennett Square if you havent already. In any case back to the matter at hand. The best thing about this restaurant, funnily enough, is the food. The pricing is great and the quality wonderful. They have a liquor license and seem to do some great bar biz. The service is still figuring itself out. It's gonna get better but you just have to give them time to hum. We went on a recent Saturday night and it was a hot mess. The hostess is telling everyone 25 and it's taking 40 and she's not adjusting. The wait staff is so busy they can't get checks to tables to turn them fast enough. They will figure all this out. The basis of the place, the food, is great. The entrees are flavorful and filling without being too big. Everyone was thrilled including my reason for living and my two little angels. Take the time to give these folks your business. You will love it. read more

I think my server must have had a hot date the night I went in for dinner (Halloween Wednesday). I say this because 10 minutes after I ordered my drink, appetizer, and entree, they all arrived within a 3 minute span. I ordered a red tamale vodka drink - watered down, but still flavorful enough to be enjoyed. The chicken and beef empanadas appetizer was a huge disappointment. The empanadas were too big for an appetizer and they were deep fried. The chicken resembled a creamy chicken soup and the beef resembled sloppy joe meat. The guacamole served with the empanadas was creamy, like ranch dressing. I like chunky guacamole that looks and tastes like it was freshly made. The empanadas had not cooled enough for me to try one before my entree was served. Very poor timing. The entree was chicken fried rice. This was delicious but had really cooled off by the time I had sampled one empanada. My server was attentive but I really felt rushed even though the restaurant was not crowded. This was a disappointing way to use a gift card. On a positive note the fresh salsa served with the chips is fantastic! read more

The food is okay, I have had better. What's cool about this place is that they make gaucamole for you while you watch. Yep the wheel the table around and cut up the avacado and smoosh them while you wait for your dinner. I had their house margarita and not worth it. For a Mexican place I expected better margaritas. read more

If you are in a rush go here. They bring out the food extremely fast and have a well staffed kitchen. The food is ok for Mexican food but with all the places to choose from in the area there is better food around. The margaritas are more on the orange flavored side, which is good but they are more expensive than some other places. read more

We have been going here for three years now on a weekly basis and it is consistently good every time! Tried almost everything on the menu and haven't had anything bad yet. Patron margaritas are the best! Chips and salsa are never ending! Never too crowded and always seated quickly. Friendly staff remembers us ;) Update: place is going downhill now. :(. read more

I wish I could say that I've EVER had a good experience here - but I have not. The food is nothing special, in fact, it's reminiscent of the old chain Mexican restaurants. That said, if that's what you LIKE - upgraded Taco Bell - then this is the place for you. Though admittedly, I've only given the restaurant three opportunities to impress me... and by opportunities, I mean, I went of my own volition the first time - after that I was dragged in by others. So, in a nutshell: Service: Appalling, each and every time. Food: Uninspired; over-priced what what it is Drinks: I've had the margaritas and they're very good... once you get it, of course. And finally, that "table-side guacamole" everyone is raving about? Um, if you've experienced much Mexican food, you'll find it average. Personally, I find the constant BANGING IN MY EARS from its mediocre creation, incredibly annoying. It's impossible to have a conversation while a waiter is making THAT MUCH RACKET! Honestly, that's the reason I'll never, ever be pulled in for a fourth visit. If you have kids - go. No one will hear the chaos at your table over the din. read more

You'd never believe it's a strip mall Mexican place. Food is authentic and staff is great. I've only ever had the cheese enchiladas here but everyone I'm with has also enjoyed their meal. The margaritas are decent and cheap. Word to the wise go with the large. Also spring for the guacamole. It's made table side and is fresh and good. read more

Didn't enjoy the dark, depressing interior. This is more of a you-get-what-you-pay-for type of place. The food is relatively cheap, and the quality reflects that. You can spend just a fraction more at nearby restaurants and get MUCH better food. I give them credit for having vegetarian/vegan options. But my burrito bowl was nothing special and cost just as much as options with meat. And the biggest letdown was the churros. We only got 3, and they were filled with apple pie filling. Why?????????? The menu doesn't state that and our waitress never told us. I don't know who would expect apple goo in the middle of their churros. The service was also lacking. We never got drink refills and were never asked how the food was. We were rushed after eating and felt like we couldn't sit and talk, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. We won't be back. There are so many better options in the area. read more

Is always good and quick. We often run into friends here and eat together. Group and kid friendly. Prices are reasonable and food quality is good. Table side guacamole is big and delicious. read more

This place has nowhere near enough Yelp love. It's great. Here's why: 1 - It's Authentic - It's relatively easy to find real Mexican food here. There's some chain-ish trappings to the menu that your mom or spicy-food despising girlfriend will love, but if you're on the prowl for legit Mexicano, this hits pretty close. 3 - Service - It was good, but they weren't busy either. That said, everyone was on point and service was spot on. 3 - Yum - Food quality was El Perrón. Really good... Tacos de Carne Asada and an Espolón Margarita all brought tears to my eyes. As in tears of happiness. The salsas served with the requisite basket of chips as well as the tacos (chile de arbol) were fully chronic. read more

I went here on 6/6 for dinner with my mother, and we were immediately seated. It started to get more crowded as our meal went on, but it wasn't insanely loud/the wait staff wasn't running around. The only time we were kept waiting was when we were trying to get our bill--other than that the service was great. An amazing feature that their menu has is a combo meal for $9.99. It's great because it typically has three different items that you can try--I loved it because I got to try a bit of three different things--though some had two options. I got the #15 combo which consisted of a chicken quesadilla, a beef and cheese tostada, and taco. All three were fantastic, but I will say that the tostada was to die for--the cheese melted on top was delicious. My mom got the #7 combo consisting of an enchilada, chile relleno, and rice and beans. I tried some of the rice and it had the perfect amount of seasoning. She also loved the chile relleno because the seeds are removed which makes it less spicy and much more enjoyable. We both got drinks--I got a specialty drink that I can't remember the name of (something with a sunset) and she got a margarita, and both were amazing. The drinks were a bit pricey though, especially considering we got big meals for $9.99 each--I believe the drinks were only about $1 cheaper. While specialty drinks are always more expensive, it was a bit glaring with the meal price. read more

We were served a generous bowl of tortilla chips and salsa as soon as we were seated. I had the Chicken Fajita Salad and my wife ordered two Beef Enchiladas a la carte. We thought both were very good and the price reasonable. Our waiter was prompt and attentive. Similar to other restaurants in the chain. read more

DO NOT buy meals here while the pandemic is still around. Carryout was terrible, and they have replaced the quality of ALL their food. Moist flour tortillas, food was cold althouigh we were there ten minutes before our pickup time. Item were missing that were a part of the eat in experience. The "sauce" using that word lightly on the enchiladas was as close to tomato paste as you can get. Nothing was worth eating. Not only was the food bad for carryout, we will not be back when the crisis has passed. They are taking advantage of the pandemic and scaling back on everything. Bad. read more

Great food and great drinks. Always very consistent and I've been many times. The staff is friendly and I love the tableside fresh guacamole. The last time I went we tried some crazy delicious margaritas that I'll share a picture of. Highly recommended read more

Somewhat mediocre and a bit overpriced. Too many very good Mexican restaurants in Kennett Square to frequent this one.

We were big fans of Plaza Azteca when we visited our first one in Plymouth Meeting when it opened. We went several times and it didn't disappoint. As time went on we have experienced a decline in our experience. To be honest, we haven't been back to the Plymouth location for about three years. however as we went to the King of Prussia location to Exton and finally last night to the Kennett Square location the experiences continued to decline. Last night was the last time we'll visit Plaza Azteca. The drinks are good and that's about it. We started with the Table Side Guacamole. It was so salty we couldn't eat it. When our server came to check on us and we mentioned it, he immediately took action. The manager came over and apologized and within seconds another person was making out guac,. which was then fantastic. My wife wanted pork enchiladas, but our server stated she couldn't order "ala carte" with pork ( even thought they have pork enchiladas in one of the combination dishes on the menu ) He suggested the Enchiladas Rancheras which is cheese enchiladas topped with pork confit. After two bites this dish as well was too salty. The server took it back to replace. When the new dish arrived the pork was definitely less seasoned evident in the color, however the pork was about half the portion of the original dish. I had a combination of ala carte consisting of a tamale, cheese enchilada, beef taco and a chile relleno. All four items were completely flat. I would expect the cheese enchilada to be flat since it's only melted cheese with nothing of substance to "fill" the tortilla, however the other items were filled with chicken. I would say in each of the items there was about an oz. of meat. The chili relleano, besides being flat, wasn't crispy at all but watery leaving to believe it was frozen and microwaved. Service was good, but our dinners came out within minutes of ordering ( glad we waited till we were done with the gauc before ordering) which also supports the microwave cooking process. So all in, we wont' be back to any location. Unfortunately for us, last night was a bad decision on our part, our first choice was a different, non chain restaurant in Avondale, but decided to travel in a different direction from where we were which took us to our last visit to Plaza Azteca. read more

Best Chicken Molè burrito I have ever had!!! You could taste the sweetness in the molé while having the chicken moist. The salsa is excellent here because it tastes like it's fresh rather than store-bought. Excellent deals and friendly service. Recommend this place to anybody who just wants to have a good meal at a reasonable price. read more

We are from out of town and wanted Mexican for dinner. This is near the hotel we were staying at. Once inside and seated, we were surprised by the vast menu. We tried the OMG nachos and they were really good. My kids both got the kids burrito and soft taco, and they ate every drop. I got to seafood chimichangas (soft) and I thought they were delicious! I couldn't finish them, but we had the chips and salsa, and OMG nachos as an appetizer. I was very happy, and my kids loved it! read more

Even though there are so many good Mexican restaurants in this area, I sometimes go here for the convenience. I have been here a few times but it just isn't impressive. Fresh guacamole is always good but the entrees are hit or miss on quality and they can't do pork carnitas. I prefer their Exton location. read more

Terrible ,at best! Bad service- still waiting for my water. Margarita was terrible too. Stay away. Food was dry. It's bad.

I have eaten here twice, and was very happy and full on both occasions. The Guacamole is made fresh at the table to your liking, and the fresh salsa and homemade chips are fabulous. I got the Burrito Conchinita Pibil and it was delicious and I only made it through half. My Wife got the carne asada, and it was delicous and fresh. The Sangria is OK, but uses canned fruit ,although there isa full bar. The Flan is to die for and is a must order. The staffi is very attentive, and the atmosphere is clean and nicely laid out. Because the restaurant is split into two dictinct areas it tends to be a little quiter than some. read more

The best thing about this restaurant is the guacomole! The table side preparation is fun but the restaurant is so tight that there are several tables that can't accomodate table side. The food was average at best. The atmosphere is nice. Our waiter was very nice and apologized several times for making us wait which we expected on a Saturday night. As it is a recently opened, I'm sure there are kinks to work out. I'd probably give it one more try or just go back for the chips, salsa (very good) quacomole and a margarita, ( good). And I will agree that the booths are uncomfortable. They are too high so unless you are 6 feet tall, your feet dangle and in our case, the table was also way too far from the seat. read more

Fantastic! I'm pretty critical when it comes to Mexican restaurants. This one was truly authentic. The salsa was great and the fresh guacamole perfect! We loved that they made it to our liking table side. I got the carnitas, they were perfectly seasoned and fall apart tender. Staff was friendly and courteous. Will definitely be going back! read more

01/10/2015 around 8:30pm When we walked in we were greeted by a very nice young lady, a gentleman approached her to see where she was sitting her, it seemed like it was an issue going on and after some discussion we were seated at a booth, that same Gentleman turned out to be our waiter, he brought us chips and Salsa, well about two table spoon of Salsa and then said I will bring you more in a minute (that never happened) he asked if we wanted something to drink? so I ordered an Ice Tea since I felt like I was being rushed. When he brought the drinks, he asked if we wanted and appetizer? we asked for a few minutes, a minute later he is back asking if we wanted to order? I asked if they were closing early? he said no, I was hoping he would understand he was rushing us. We ordered an appetizer and our meals and I figured I might as well get a beer or this old man is really going to get the best of me. Throughout the meal he kept rushing us and asking if he could take our plates, I finally told him I wanted to finish eating first. The food was Good for the prize, but it could have been a lot better, the beer came in a huge mug and it could have been colder, the fresh Guacamole was pretty Good, they make it in front of you and you get to tell them what you want in it, however, he made more noise with the two spoons he was using than a chef at a Hibachis, come on its a soft avocado. It seems like all the other servers were being nice and friendly to their customers. I tried to get the managers attention but he was busy talking with one of the waiter's and had no interest making sure the customers were being well served. As we were leaving, the manager was again talking to the same guy but on the other side of the restaurant, I was looking straight at him for a bit as I stood by the register and he pretty much ignored me. So, if you go, avoid the short skinny waiter in his late 40s read more

This place used to be one of our favorites, not anymore. We saw the bad reviews and didn't want to believe them. Food wasn't very good, and service even worse. It's a shame they are letting it down. read more

Broken seat, mojito that was a glass full of ice with a trickle of mix and zero actual booze. My California tacos were dry, unseasoned and tasteless with no cabbage in them and an adorned, overcooked lump of rice as the only garnish. And let's not forget the world's worst waiter. His attitude bordered on aggressive and he barely paid attention to us then acted like we were pains in the derriere when he screwed up our orders. Two separate people at our table asked him for a dessert menu and he shrugged and brought us the check. Then when we didn't get up and leave right away (maybe five minutes) he demanded that we leave. Can't believe this place is in business with so many better options close by. read more

This was the second time we tried here because we weren't impressed the first time, but everyone deserves. Second chance. Unfortunately, it didn't pan out. The server was nice but not helpful. They don't have an accurate cocktail list (or they just don't feel like making them), the food is obviously not fresh. It all tasted processed/frozen like I could have bought it at a super market. I guess I shouldn't expect more from a chain (which I didn't know it was until after). Don't go here, much better, fresh, and authentic Mexican around Kennett Square. I won't be back. read more

Ordered the enchiladas banderas. This comes with a chicken, beef, and cheese enchiladas with three different sauces. The red sauce over beef didn't taste very good. The white sauce over the cheese was the best. The green sauce over chicken was good for about half the enchilada, but then the after taste halfway through changed my thoughts. The waiter I had barely spoke English, but that wasn't surprising for a Mexican restaurant. Overall the atmosphere was decent and food was decent. Nothing to brag about though. read more

Great food and service at a reasonable price. Workers take great pride in delivering their wares.

Horrible steak. Do not order steak or carne asada. Horrible service and food quality.

The salsa given at the beginning tastes store bought and like the inside of a refrigerator. Also the chips at the bottom of the basket tasted strongly of coffee. When we asked the waitress if the chicken wings were boneless she said yes, which it turns out they were not! Also the sauce for them also tasted like refrigerator. read more
