    Guacamole
    Leah J.

    While in the Grand Rapids area for my mother's graduation, we decided to go to Pure Mex to celebrate her amazing accomplishment. Since it was recommended by one of her friends, we were excited to try their food. Thankfully, it was pretty empty so we were able to be seated right away. The interior was nice and the menu included everything from chimichangas and enchiladas to tacos, burritos and specialty items so we took a few minutes to figure out what we wanted since everything sounded great. My sister was intrigued by the Molcajete, which included steak, chicken, shrimp, chorizo, peppers and onions with green onions, grilled queso and red guajillo salsa served in a hot molcajete. We ordered that to split while my daughter ordered the Quesabirria Tacos. My mom decided on the Shrimp Enchiladas and her friend ordered the Chicken Fajitas. Our server brought out our food fairly quickly and made sure we had everything we needed. We also ordered Guacamole but it was literally just mashed avocados. We had to add salt for flavor. My mom and her friend enjoyed their meal but my daughter mentioned her Quesabirria Tacos lacked flavor also. The Molcajete was absolutely delicious. The meats were seasoned very well, cooked perfectly and paired well with the sauces and cheeses. I didn't even eat it with the tortilla, it was great all by itself. We also ordered the Choco Flan, Tres Leches cake and Churros but I wasn't a fan of any of them unfortunately. Overall, it was a decent spot and I'm sure there are other great food items on the menu to try so check them out if you're in the area.

    Street taco dinner
    Cassandra E.

    Stopped in for dinner last night, first time at this locations. Quickly sat in a small booth and greeted with chips and salsa. The location isn't as cute as the grandville one but still very clean, We both ordered a diet coke - it was sooooo good, perfect carbonation. (iykyk) I ordered the carne asada street tacos. The meal came with three very large tacos (pico, sour cream and cheese), beans and rice. Let me tell you, this meal was sooooooooooo good! I can't recommend it enough. My friend for the street taco meal with three different tacos and loves it. The only thing I would say needs improvement is drink refill service, I did have to walk to the serve stand to get another diet coke. The jalapeno in the pico was spicy but in the best way! Hands down best tacos in the area. 12/10 recommend!

    Shrimp taco

    This little place is not to be missed. The service was excellent and Taylor so friendly! The portions are generous. We shared queso, guacamole, and salsa. The have a salsa with more heat if that is desired. I had two street tacos and hubs a tacos salad. The food is delicious!! I loved the guacamole, it is authentic not a bunch of added stuff. Highly recommend going here

    What a great stop. Fast, Friendly and Delicious come to mind. Right off the expressway across from the mall tucked away but still visible from the road. Large parking lot and no steps to enter. Greeted when I entered and found my way to the bar. Bartender was knowledgeable and kind. We were only there for drinks and man theyadena delicious Margarita. The decor was bright and the atmosphere chill. Could have spent the entire day there. Definitely need to come back for food. Everything that came out of the kitchen smelled delicious

    Chimichanga lunch special for $13!

    Great food. Very fast and great atmosphere. Very new and clean. Delicious and fresh food.

    Carne Asada tacos + guacamole
    Nichole K.

    Quick in and out at 5:30p on a Monday. Very friendly, attentive servicer quickly delivered chips & salsa. Their salsa is not my favorite, pretty lack luster water tomato flavor but the chips were fresh & warm. I've tried all the taco meat choices at this chain and by far the best (for us) is the carne asada. I ordered 3 with a side of guacamole which was fresh and needed just a tad of salt. 2 tacos filled me up! Husband enjoyed the Border Asada taco meal and it was filling. Great, quick meal.

    Burrito supreme
    Laura V.

    Absolutely outstanding. The service was great and the food even better! Having gone to a very expensive restaurant a couple days ago and was terribly disappointed by mediocre food and service, this was a wonderful surprise at a fraction of the cost! Highly recommend.

    We absolutely love this place. The food is always fresh and prices quite reasonable. Chris (manager) has created a great atmosphere and the staff are always friendly. One of our favorite restaurants.

    Cute little restaurant. Fast service, servers are attentive. Free chips and salsa. Food is fantastic. Comes out pretty fast. Can't wait to try more.

    Street tacos - barbacoa and pastor
    Bonnie B.

    The service was amazing. The food came quickly. The pastor was flavorful and the barbacoa was very tender. They give you a generous portion of chips immediately upon seating. They serve a lunch menu until 3pm everyday. I got all of this delicious food for only $11.

He literally was in no hurry and our dialogue went far past the normal server/customer relationship. Finally, as the worship service, I mean my meal went on, the neighboring server, Ruth, came up to and just started conversing and making me feel welcome, just like everyone else I've mentioned. I plan to bring my friends and family. I highly recommend Pure Mex, and am confident you will be treated as well as I was.

    We just love this place!…read more We drive from the Kalamazoo area for this experience after being hooked by the Richland location that has been closed for remodeling for a while. Of course, as with any great Mexican restaurant, you are greeted with delicious chips and salsa shortly after being seated - pure Mex has some of the best!! They'll refill at your request! Also ask for some of the house hot sauce as that only elevates the flavors! We have honestly loved everything we've tried from Pure Mex, and that is much of their menu, but some of our favs are the queso fundido, the Anaheim tacos, the fish tacos, Choripollo, and Arroz con with whichever protein you love most, or a combo of them all!! :) And of course, the MARGARITAS!!! So fresh and so good, every single time! The service at Pure Mex is always friendly and usually very fast!! The atmosphere is clean, open, and feels trendy! We love the side of the dining room that is screened in, where the windows can lift and let the fresh air flow! Give this place a try, from someone whose absolute favorite cuisine is Mexican, I think it's very unlikely that you'll be disappointed! :)

    I recently learned this was a regular spot of my dad's, was there almost weekly…read more Got to try it for the first time. We had a large party and it was catered in. The corn tacos were okay, hard to eat with the shredded chicken. Chips and salsa are ok. Guacamole would have made it even better, as the shells broke after a bite and got soggy from the liquid. The chicken itself wasn't bad, not super flavorful. The queso was quite runny, purely liquid. Some onions or cilantro would have been nice condiment adds.

It's a fun casual and extremely colorful little restaurant. They can accommodate both small parties and large groups. Smells amazing the instant you walk in and are greeted by the super friendly staff! The menu is massive which is why I didn't take pictures of all of it, but it is available on their website. She and her son usually both go with chimichangas so who was I to question it? I chose the steak fajita chimichanga and oh my goodness it was some of the best Mexican food I've ever had in my life! We loved it so much that we ordered it to go again a couple days later! Whether you're dining in or taking it home, you cannot go wrong when you choose Pure Mex! If you're ever in the area make sure you stop in!

The staff was friendly and our waitress was friendly, talkative and fun. She definitely added to our experience. I hope we get her again the next time we go.

We got something with a bed or Mexican rice covered in chicken and queso. It came with 3 tortilla shells. The flavor was amazing and the portions were more than enough for two of us to share. Our friends got the burritos and they said it was one of the best they had. Now the drinks! Wow! They have a sangria margarita that will go down way too smoothly and warm you up right away. So good! We are definitely going back for those! Can you tell from all the exclamation points how good it was? LOL. We will be back and I hope that your experience is just as good.
