I'm a huge fan of Mexican food. Therefore I've tried many different Mexican restaurants in the…read morearea, as well as in other cities and states. That being said, El Mazatlan remains my number one choice, hands down. Their staff are always well-dressed, professional and friendly. their food is always fresh and hot. And their prices have always been consistent and fair for the 10+ years I've been a customer. The restaurant itself has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and is always kept in good order with clean tables. There's an extensive menu that has something to offer everyone (even the pickiest of eaters). Once you're seated, you'll never wait longer than a couple of minutes to get your drinks, chips and salsa. The staff will usually take your order within five minutes of when you're seated and the wait for your order is usually no longer than 10 minutes (unless they're busy or you have a large party). If you're passing through on I-65, go where the locals go! El Mazatlan is sure to have something to satisfy your appetite for Mexican cuisine!

We stopped in at El Mazatlan for lunch over the weekend. The restaurant has plenty of seating and…read morewas not crowded at all. The menu is large with some good lunch options. Service was fast, and they brought chips and salsa quickly. I had the veggie fajitas, which had a ton of vegetables beyond the normal heavy carrots, peppers, and onions you get at most Mexican places. The rest of the family liked the burritos they ordered, and the beans and rice were good as well. Overall, this was a good value and way better than getting fast food if you are driving on the highway.

After a day exploring Kentucky Down Under, we hit up El Mazatlan for a late lunch. It was a…read morebeautiful day outside, so we chose to eat on the patio. There was a covered portion, but we stayed in the sun to stay warm in the cool spring air. The server sat us immediately and brought us complimentary fresh chips and salsa. We were starving, so we gobbled them up while flipping through the extensive menu. The servers brought us extra chips and salsa while we waited for our food and drinks. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and two steak tacos off the à la carte lunch menu (until 3pm daily). There was a $0.99 upcharge each for grilled vs shredded chicken and carne asada vs ground beef, and it was totally worth it. My daughter ordered two grilled chicken quesadillas as well. And our friends ordered beef nachos and a fajita platter. All of it was delicious, with large portions. I had a couple of house margaritas, which were tasty and a steal at just $5.50 each. My only complaints were that the queso dip was rather small and not worth the $5, and (like most places) they charge way too much for a soda ($3.25). The service was excellent. Our server Juan was friendly and very attentive, and several others checked in on us throughout our meal to ensure we were taken care. I'll definitely be back the next time I visit Cave City, Hidden River Cave, or Kentucky Down Under.

I'm on the fence between 3* and 4* here. If it were in a region of the country were the food is…read moregenerally edible, I'd give 3*, but they do better by comparison, and the vegetables are fresh... Anyhow, it's white people taco night food. Steak fajitas were fine--steak was underseasoned and a bit chewy, but peppers, guac, and pico were relatively fresh. Tortillas were soft, rice and beans were lukewarm and nothing special. Food came out extremely fast, and I appreciated the big portions after a long day of hiking. Deep fried ice cream wasn't my favorite but maybe it's just not my thing.

The food is the most authentic Mexican I've had since I stopped an hour from Cabo San Lucas at a…read moreroadside eatery. Salsa and chips? Homemade and fresh! Chips were hot. Street tacos, empanadas, quesadillas Tortas, burritos and tamales- I think that is the whole menu. No Tex mex, no chimichangas, no Speedy Gonzalez special- this is more authentic. In fact, the waitress/cashier was the only other person in the building that spoke ANY English- including other patrons. Is this fancy? Nope. Is it clean? Yup. The shrimp street tacos were the best food in our opinion- tied with the chips and salsa. Also had carne asada and chorizo tacos and Burria empanadas and the shrimp was the best. Entire restaurant and bathrooms are handicap accessible, but this place is not right next to parking. It is in a little outdoor mall area, at the back, so you'll need to park and go maybe 100-150 yards to the door. If you need fried ice cream and a mariachi band, you need to stop elsewhere, but if you are looking for good quality, authentic food for a really reasonable price- this is it.

Standard menu for a Mexican establishment with the usual suspects of Burritos, Tacos, Nachos and of course Birria! They also serve the lunch menu all week long so there's a breakfast burrito that my daughter got that looked great. They weren't very busy and didn't have a lot of staff working when we arrived on a Sunday around 12. The server was very quick to get to our table and give us drinks, tortilla chips and salsa while we looked at the menus. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with artwork and flags and you wouldn't think it was so nice from the outside but it is. Our food came out very fast and looked amazing. I ordered the Birria Quesadilla and it was amazing. Tender meat and very cheesy! The consommé is an extra charge so we got a cup to share. My wife had a Chicken dish with queso and rice that was also delicious. My son ordered a huge burrito that looked great but he did mention it not being the hottest. Overall good experience and we will visit again when we're in the area. They do charge gratuity automatically for parties of 6 or more so take that info as you'd like.

The initial salsa was interesting, but not bad. My daughter's cheeseburger was what I expected in a Mexican restaurant. They even had good quality bun for it. My husband enjoyed his enchiladas.

Overall, very happy about our dinner.

Probably some of the best Mexican food we've had north and east of El PasoTX and Costa Mesa CA! Start off with margaritas. I went for the top shelf and my wife for their regular. Must say the top shelf margarita had some terrific flavors! We also ordered the chunky guacamole to go with the chips and salsa. The chunky guacamole is the way to go! For our main courses, my wife decided on the Los Yolanda's (really chicken enchiladas) while I decided on their Carnitas platter. Our dishes came out surprisingly fast and were truly delicious! We were talked into an order of fried ice cream for dessert, again happy that we did as it was very yummy! An unexpected treat of complementary tequila shots and celebration of Cinco de Mayo was also truly appreciated. We did like the decor having a nice flare. We were so happy that many of the wait staff stopped by our table to ensure all was good. If we visit again, I'm sure we'll stop by! Keep up the great work!

Good location, ample parking and surprisingly spacious dining room with plenty of tables. I'm surprised this place wasn't busier. I ordered the taco trio and chose the Baja taco with dealers choice on fish or shrimp, Al pastor taco and the carne asada taco with a cucumber lemonade to drink since they have Aguas frescas on tap. They served my drink right away and it was refreshing made with lemon instead of a traditional pepino that is made with limes. More like a lemonade with some cucumbers. The tacos came out fairly quick and looked amazing. They added a side of corn almost like elotes and some sauces and a couple slices of a radish one lime. The tacos were delicious I liked the freshness of the tortillas and heated with a bit of oil to make them soft but not fall apart soft on my carne asada taco and al pastor. They both had great flavor and the sauce were decent. The green one was like a tomatillo but not spicy and the red one was a little bit spicy. The Baja fish taco was really good made with a flour tortilla still crisp and held together well and the sauce was plentiful that I didn't even need to add anything. The fish was well seasoned and the slaw gave it a perfect texture. I don't eat corn that often but still tasted it and was great, seasoned with some spice and warm and cozy feels. I also picked a chocoflan and it was the perfect treat to end the meal. Beautifully moist dessert the only thing I prefer it a bit more Carmel sauce. The staff cleared up our table and were so nice. We came when they had trivia night and when in Rome you play trivia and it was actually fun but we didn't stay for the whole game. They also have a table that has cutlery, to go boxes, napkins and cups and ice water dispenser and some sauces. A place if I'm ever in the area again I will be stopping at again.
