The first thing to say is that this restaurant seems to be listed under two different names, the other being "La Espiga de Oro". Not sure why... Anyway, everything we ordered was great. The beans in particular were about the best either me or my wife have ever had. You can be sure they use some lard in there somewhere, if my sense of smell serves me right. The cheese chile relleno was delicious, and my wife's enchiladas were surprisingly tasty for the (apparently) unseasoned chicken inside. The chips were fresh and the sauces interesting. The guacamole was cold and spot on, although it needed salt badly IMO. (note: the guacamole is a menu item, not from the sauce bar). Be warned, some of the sauces at the "sauce bar" can be very hot! Not for your average Northerner. And the decor and atmosphere are nothing to write home about. Kind of stark. But the food is good, and that's the main thing; you're not going to come here on a fancy date anyway... So give this place a try when in Clovis. read more

After reading reviews decided to give this local hot spot a shot. The location has plenty of parking and ample seating for dinning in. The decor is a bit dated but is well kept and clean. The menu is extensive with a wide variation of Mexican food. The set up is you go to counter to order and pay then they deliver your food to your table. Decided on enchiladas with green sauce and chile relleno. Order was delivered quickly and warm. The chips and salsa were tasty and they have a large salsa bar. I didn't care for the beef enchilada but the chicken and cheese were excellent. The relleno was not much to look at but was surprisingly delicious. The beans and rice were well cooked but nothing to write home about. Price wise pretty average but definitely will return. read more

Believe the hype...this is the best restaurant in Clovis....by a long shot. In a town where it can be challenging (to put it mildly) to find anything authentic, Servicio Azteca is a gem. Absolutely the freshest, best Mexican (not "New" Mexican - important distinction) food I've ever had - all served by the friendliest smiling folks you could hope for. From the open-topped ice chest full of bottled bebidas, to the fantastic salsa bar, to the room in the back where you can watch them making their tortillas (which also yield the best chips - ever - for munching while waiting for your entreé) from start to finish this place is great. I've had both their standard combination platters as well as their quesadillas, which alone make this worth a stop, but the tacos are this joint's raison d'être They've got the full fare of asada, adovada, barbacoa, al pastor, lengue...and it goes on and on. All of these meats are provided from the market next door and served piping hot on the aforementioned fantastic tortillas. Although they come out naked, after a trip to the salsa bar you can top them any way your heart desires. It's slightly hidden (which I like) and they aren't open for dinner EXCEPT on weekends (and then only till 6), but if you live in Clovis, do yourself a favor and go. If you're just passing through (lucky) this is the ONLY place worth your time. read more

So good!! It's kind of hidden and the parking is limited but it's definitely worth a try! If you're craving Mexican food go here! I had the Azteca Platillo, which came with a flauta, taco, chile relleno, enchilada, rice and beans. I also ordered a soda in a glass bottle and that all came to around $12, so pretty cheap for a ton of food! They bring chips to your table and you help yourself to the salsa bar. The food was very good, the green sauce on the enchilada was actually spicy, and I ordered my taco al pastor, and it actually had tiny chunks of pineapple in it! It was so good! The chile relleno was too greasy for me but I'm not a chile relleno person. The flauta was very good as well. And their guacamole tasted very good and fresh, not like it came from a bag. I would definitely recommend this place to a friend or anyone stopping by Clovis! read more

Servicio Azteca - My plate! Tons of food! - Mexican Near Me - Clovis, New Mexico

Hidden gem right off the main road In Clovis NM. Friendly and kind people behind the counter helping you out with a big smile. Min Tacos and Salsa bar are to die for. read more

Very friendly staff! The tortas are simply awesome! We have been here a few times, and have been consistently impressed! read more

Best Tacos and authentic Mexican soups I've had in a while. Be aware that it gets really busy during lunch. Do try the next door store for Latin groceries. I have made great tacos at home with meat from their butcher and their house made tortillas. read more

Road tripping with Yelp! is THE BEST!! This place is definitely where the locals go to eat. And, it is GREAT. We stopped here driving from Texas on our way to ski in New Mexico. The staff was SO friendly. They gladly helped us navigate through the menu written in Spanish. And, it was so CLEAN. The salsa bar was as great as other reviewers claim. My daughter was happy she could get a simple cheese quesadilla. My husband and I were happy with our beef and chicken fajitas. But, our son definitely out ordered us with his ground beef tacos - that you can doctor any way you please off the salsa bar with cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, etc. etc. etc. We will definitely try to plan our future road trips through Clovis around mealtime! We would love to go back. read more

The number one Mexican food restaurant in Clovis, sign me up. After trying to visit a couple other times when they were closed I finally was able to sample their goodness. I had the tacos, very authentic, two barbacoa and two al pastor. Loved them both. The salsa bar is wonderful. Service is cafeteria style so some may not like that but the food is worth it. I can wait to go back to Clovis but can't wait to go back to Servicio Azteca. read more

Mexican food of astounding freshness and delicious taste in a clean lunchroom where you order at the counter. We were the only people in the room speaking English. Tacos al pastor, quesadillas and green Chile are great and so is the horchata. read more

I'm so used to how the West Coast style of Mexican food is prepared. I just can't wrap my hands around TexMex or most all Mexican food in this part of the U.S. This place feels closest to legit, home cooked, fresh Mexican that I'm used to. read more

Worst Mexican food experience I ever had. I read the reviews and could not wait. I wish I never set foot through the doors read more

This place is awesome! Menu is good, service is good, food is good. They make their tortillas in a factory in the back of the store and they are fresh and warm right out of the oven in both the restaurant and the grocery next door. They also have a salsa bar with excellent red and green salsas, pico de gallo, cilantro, onions and other items to decorate tacos and dip chips into. The tortilla chips came warm and fresh and went great with the salsas. They waitress brought plenty of chips to tide us over until the tacos and fajitas we ordered were ready. If you are anywhere within and hour or so of here around mealtime, it is worth the detour to come eat at Servicio Azteca. read more

Great price, really good food. It gets really busy there since it is right next to the super market and parking can be frustrating if you go peak hours. read more

Finally a reason to come to Clovis!!!!! Love the extensive salsa bar and the chicken tacos were amazing!!!

My favorite place to eat in this dirt-farm dump of a town. I go a few times a month and am never disappointed. Super friendly family/staff. They always help me decide what to try next, last time I had barbacoa tacos for the first time and they were awesome. Super tender and flavorful. read more

This place is so good! We stopped by for breakfast with no expectations and were DELIGHTED to find the food was all flavorful and delicious. Hubby (just kidding that's disgusting), had the #11 huevos con mochado (sp?) and I had the chilaquiles. The beans and tortillas were SO DELICIOUS. The green sauce was excellent and the shredded beef was also awesome. They were really nice also. Whether you are heading in to or out of Texas this will give you the strength to carry on. read more

I am in the restaurant as I type, having just finished a plate of tacos de lengua. Incredibly tender and good. I am from Albuquerque, and know a thing or two about the subject. This is my first visit to this gem in Clovis. Don't be put off by south side location. The place is jammed with families, Air Force personnel, a friendly staff and nice people, all. One orders at a counter to the right as you walk in, then you head to the sauce and salsa bar, and good luck finding a table. When you do, the staff brings out some chips. The tacos are served naked, so be sure to gather up onions, cheese, cilantro, etc at the bar before your meal arrives. Not just tacos, there is full menu and daily specials. I want try it all. read more

Great authentic Mexican food. Everything is fresh and homemade, the variety of fresh salsas are me and my husband's favorite. My husbands mom used to own a Mexican restaurant in Chicago and he said these salsas were comparable. He usually gets the 4 tacos and I get a quesadilla. The horchata and melon water are both awesome. We also love the Mexican food store, which is located next door to the restaurant. read more

This place is definitely a hidden treasure! I ask a few locals about a good Mexican Restaurant and not one mentioned this place, but due to the two phenomenal reviews here on Yelp I decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed. The woman working the counter went out of her way to make me feel welcome and take care of me. When I came in she was taking someones order but she took a moment to hand me a menu and instruct me to have a seat and come back up when I was ready to order! The food was great and I even got a Quesadilla to go for later in the day! EVERYTHING was amazingly fresh the chiles, tortillas, guacamole and the chicken that was in the tacos was awesome! So far THE BEST PLACE IN CLOVIS! read more

I was visiting family from California that moved to New Mexico. They buy the homemade tortillas from here and we had some for breakfast. We decided to go eat and have lunch. I got the para Aztecs relents- basically you get a chile relleno, enchilada, taco, flauta with rice and beans. You also get tortillas - corn or flour. I would recommend if you like a variety. Excellent. The pastor was vary good ( my choice of meat for taco). Others in our party got tacos and loved them- barbacoa. My mom got chicken fajitas and boy were they sizzling. She liked them. 3 people in our party got taquitos. Everybody enjoyed what they got and would get it again. They have great chips and the guacamole was great!!!! We are our food to fast and didn't get time to take w picture. You will not be disappointed if you chose to eat here. read more

Fantastic meal. Had barbacoa and steak tacos. Salsa bar has no shortage of choices, and the 3-4 I tried were great. Will definitely come back my next time in town. read more

I am leaving Clovis in a couple days and wish I would have went to this place sooner. I had the beef tacos and they were delicious. The price was good and the service was great every one was so friendly. I will defiantly go here for lunch again before I leave there was so many things I wanted to try. There was a long wait for lunch because they make everything to order so didn't mind waiting. read more

I've had to travel to Clovise about 6 times in the last year or so. I had completely given up on finding a good meal in the town other than fast food from Taco Box. Then I found this place. I no longer have to worry about meals in Clovis, and look forward to going back if for no other reason than lunch here. read more

El Pastor Tacos are perfect! Asada tacos and quesadilla were great as well! The place is kept clean and the service is great! Good salsa bar, fresh chips and tortillas, and always packed for lunch! read more

Get the barbacoa...it's noms! Hubby liked the salsa bar :) I'm pickier with my salsa so I wasn't as exited. The floor tortillas are really good! read more

Tasty authentic food with a awesome salsa bar! Bit of a hidden gem. For a good taste of variety try their platillo azteca.

It's a quirky little place that made me feel nervous to try. But man is it good! Inside is clean. Service is fast and friendly. The food is wonderful and delicious. I routinely drive over an hour to eat here. By far the best Mexican food I've had in southeast New Mexico yet! read more

I signed up for yelp just so I could say how great this place is. I live in Arizona and we have some good Mexican food. This ranks up there with the best. It is a difficult to find but look behind the Long John Silvers and there it is. A definite stop in Clovis. read more

Tip: This restaurant is attached to Espiga de Oro Market, which has much larger signs than the restaurant. This is as good as Mexican food gets at this price point. The food is fantastic working-class Mexican food, where they focus on doing fundamental things well--varieties of delectable salsas at a salsa bar, house-made chips, fresh ingredients for the tacos. On average, plan to spend around $10, but also expect to be stuffed. The food is dense and filling. I've had half of the varieties of tacos, the favorites for me being pastor (pork) and buche (pig throat). Top them off with cilantro, onions, lime, and salsa, and you can't get better. Also exceptional is the green sauce for the enchiladas, which distinctively tastes like fresh peppers. If I knew nothing else other than the quality of the food, I would recommend this place highly. Yet the service is the best part. When you go in, you can sit down or just go straight up to the counter. The workers are incredibly helpful, offering great recommendations, explaining the contents of the dishes, constantly checking with you to see if you need anything. The restaurant itself is also very efficient, being constantly cleaned, orders being hurried to the tables, and tables being cleared fast after patrons leave. Places like this deserve business. They're doing everything their restaurant can in all the right ways. read more

Oh damn hell, Flavor town! Just go! Dont hesitate to do an all around on the salsa bar. You have to put the crema on the tacos! You better not complain, whichever salsa you tried was "too hot" or I will punch you in the face! read more

Absolutely best and fresh and authentic Mexican food. Also very friendly and genuinely warm service from every person working there. I am visiting from out of state so do not have local knowledge, and so glad I found this place. read more

My wife and I were passing through Clovis and were looking for some tasty, reasonably priced food. Yelp pulled through for us yet again! This place comes by it's 5-star average rating honestly. The food was fresh and delicious, the staff was friendly and inviting (even to our 18 month old), and the prices very reasonable. Not at all what we were expecting in Clovis! It's kind of hard to find, but it's definitely worth looking for. We'll definitely be stopping here again next time we find ourselves driving through Clovis. read more

The flavors were pretty decent, but the burritos and tacos my husband and I got were so greasy compared to other casual Mexican restaurants we've eaten at. By the time I got my order of tacos, the grease had seeped through all the tortillas and made them unappetizing. read more

Very good inexpensive Mexican. Clean and very friendly staff. Tortillas made on site and very fresh. Earlier reviews notes that menus were just in Spanish - not to worry this has been rectified. You wouldn't drive hours out of your way for this place but perfect if you are passing through. read more

Called they said they were open,, drove 4 hours to cjheck it out and they are closed. My guess ,, no Bueno if not open for dinner and employees don't know the hours they are open read more
