Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

We came with a large group, and they did a great job with the service. The food was brought out fairly quickly, and was very good. It was pretty standard Mexican fare done well. I had red Chile with big chunks of meat that was tender with a good consistency (a lot of spice-not really too hot, but strong). The others in my party were all happy as well. I'll come back.

There is only one reason we ever come here, the chips and salsa and I even think that is going down hill. I fill like they are just increasing their prices more and more because no one ever comes here to eat anymore.

The service was so terrible. We waited over 15 minutes to give our drink order, and the waiter ran off before we could tell him that we were obviously ready to give our requests. The small menu did not make it difficult to decide - this place has very few selections and not many traditional Mexican favorites. After the long wait to give our order, we decided to split the nachos. Seems simple enough, right? Not a chance. After waiting for what felt like ages (noticing a theme here?), the greasy nachos were placed in front of us. We tried to stomach the soggy chips and stale beans, but could barely finish half. There wasn't even salt on the table to make the complimentary chips bearable! Needless to say, we will not be returning.

Pretty dang good sopapillas and the orange bbq pulled pork was good, but a little dry. This place is looking run down & needs an update. What used to be an old family favorite is now becoming a last resort though. Decent service, alright menu, meh...

My sis and I came here for a quick meal. Our service was good and quick. We had the fresh guac and shrimp/mango quesadilla. Both were amazing. The $2 margarita tasted like a $2 drink so I guess you get what you pay for. The salsa and chips were great and I am looking forward to another trip to this spot!

Worse than elementary school cafeteria food! It's just a buffet back there. A horrible one at that.

My 1st n last visit. If you have a hearty appetite, stay away! For $11.95 I had 2 pork enchiladas n I only counted 6 small pieces of meat in each enchilada. Also about 2 tablespoons of beans n a small scoop of rice. I was still hungry n the end :(

Hands down my favorite place to visit when I go home to Mesa to visit my family and friends! If I had to choose one food to live off of the rest of my life it would be Mi Amigos chips and salsa. No questions asked. I always get the mini chimis and never leave unsatisfied.
(5)Chelsea W.
Have been to this restaurant more times than I can count. I seriously love this place. Everything I have tried, I have liked, but hands down my favorites are the crispy beef tacos, the green corn tamales and the mini chimis. Great foood, great service. Try it and you will not be dissappointed!

I haven't eaten here in years because the food was just ok. But I was pleasantly surprised tonight. First of all the salsa had great flavor, lots of garlic and fresh herbs. I loved it!! The chips were a bit greasy, not my favorite. I ordered the shrimp enchiladas with green sauce. Mmmmm good choice! Very generous with the shrimp, and the green sauce definitely made the dish. Glad I came back, I'm excited to try a few more things next time.

I went to Mi Amigo's for lunch and to catch some of the college football games. I was craving strawberry frozen alcohol so I ordered a daiquiri and ended up having 3 of them along with some machaca nachos. The nachos were full of flavor and had lots of meat on them. They were a little too heavy for my liking but they were good. The service was great and chips and salsa were complimentary and were good as well. Overall a good experience.

One star for the tainted reviews. Orange head liars, nice touch to have all of the employees give rave reviews. You gets nothing!!!!! The real scoop... the chips were to greasy and too salty our server was a trout mouthed heathen that needed a bath. You would have thought she was at home the way she shuffled across the floor. We left before she could come back and take our order. Nasty. The food might be good but our server drove us away.

Been going for years. I just love it. Thats it.

The one thing I loved about Mi Amigo's was the atmosphere there. I imagined under different circumstances, I actually wouldn't mind going out on a date with my husband there. I had a salad for lunch, with a piece of chicken on it. the dressing was good, salad was good, but a bit pricey for just a salad and a few chunks of chicken. the waitress was friendly and accurate with the meal. They have a full sized bar that wasn't active at all with people in the mid afternoon, I imagine the real party starts at night. the restaurant was pretty empty at mid afternoon, which surprised me. I guess people are avoiding a pricey lunch? I would definitely go back one of these days though! great place if you need to have a business lunch to talk.

I have been frequenting this place since I was a little guy with my family so it does hold a warm little place in my heart as a decent Mexican food place. It's family owned, and has a fairly large menu. There's nothing really great and nothing really bad to say about this place, which is why I guess it doesn't do much for me. Sure it holds some degree of nostalgia for me and the tortilla chips are actually my favorite of all of the Mexican food places we frequent. (My taste in chips runs to the light and crispy side so if you like em thick and crunchy, you'll likely not share my enthusiasm.) But on the flip side, the last time I ate there I could have sworn I ordered the carne asada fajitas... yes yes, I know I did because my bill clearly stated "Carne Asada". However, I also remember eating something that resembled the bottom of an old leather shoe and was just as tough. Although I think the bottom of an old shoe would have had more flavor. Geez, so why 3 stars? Well, on the whole the food is good and the wait staff is friendly but I'll admit most of my rating probably comes from the chips and the fond memories. If you're nearby, you could find worse places to eat Mexican, but don't make a trip just to come to Mi Amigos.

Just wanted to come back and update. We've gone 3 or 4 more times since I posted my initial review, and I can honestly say that each experience has been consistently awesome. Excellent service, excellent food. :)
(5)Mike G.
Good food. Friendly service. Tacks and chips were really good. Red chile burrito was only ok. Ill try something else next time im in town.
(3)Sunshine M.
Went here for dinner on Friday night. We loved it!! Everytime we are in town we visit Mi Amigos! I wish LA had mexican food this good! My husband loves the Nachos Mi Amigos with machaca beef. I am CRAZY for the green corn tamales. The chips are always served hot and the salsa is fresh. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!! I've read over the reviews and even the bad reviews of this place claim the food is good! Please consider opening one in the LA area!
(5)Lori M.
It's alright. I've had better.
(2)Matt S.
Simply the best Tacos you can find around here. They use real shells, not the crappy taco bell style shells. Great enchalda sauce and amazing machaca chimis. I love this place and always have had good service. The salsa is fresh and tastes great. I have been a ton of times and never had a bad experience. I have been eating at Mi Amigos since I was a little kids - so at least 30 years!
(5)J. L. M.
Been here a couple of times with my husband, who agrees with this review. Wait staff ranges from friendly to put-upon, booths are hard and uncomfortable, overpriced ($11.95 for two chicken enchiladas, rice and beans; $7.95 for a vegetarian burrito and beans), chips were salty, cold, and had a rancid grease aftertaste; good salsa. Pretty mediocre lunch in every way. Definitely gringo.
(3)Mark T.
I have been here a few times and enjoy it. It is close to my apartment and the service is always fast & friendly. I typically order the same thing each time - the Tamaco Special: one taco and one tamale with rice and beans. The tamale is excellent and I highly recommend it. They also have a blue amigo margarita. In a pint glass. For $2.50. Whaaaatttt?!?! I went Saturday afternoon arrived, ordered, ate, and was back home in 30 minutes. The food is always good and I continue to visit. They do have a good-sized menu and I should try some other things, but I really enjoy the Tamaco Special too much to venture away.

This place has gone down hill. Salsa has more spice to it so it is not enjoyable. They raised there prices and the portions are smaller. Its a fast and convenient place to go but not true Mexican food and over priced!
(2)Alyse H.
I grew up going to Mi Amigo's with my family so it is a bit of a nostalgic experience for me. I noticed that they menu was different than I remember on our most recent visit. My favorite thing has always been the Nachos Mi Amigo's with machaca. They had nachos, but I didn't want to order them because they weren't described on the menu like they used to be. My hubby got a chicken chimi and stopped eating it halfway through because the chicken had a strange texture. His beans were also lukewarm. The salsa is totally amazing, but you can't go to a restaurant solely for the salsa!
(2)Nicole G.
We had excellent service for our large party. There was always new chips and salsa when we ran out and drinks we refilled before we even ran out! Rarely does that happen anywhere. The food was pretty good and all of our orders were correct. We even had a birthday in our group and they sang and brought our table an order of dessert. I would definitely go back to Mi Amigo's.
(5)Jason C.
The food here is pretty good, but the service is horrible! Me,my wife and son went into this business a few days ago to eat supper after we were seated they said that someone would be right with us, well after 15 minutes nobody! Acknowledged us saying " be right with you" or anything. Now remember this is the third time in a row that the service has been horrible. The first time that it happened, everyone's due for a bad day and even the second time but all three times horrible service that is unacceptable especially when I'm paying my hard-earned money in their establishment to have good service and good food. so me and my family left and will never return.
(2)Barb M.
Disappointed with the food. For it being a Mexican restaurant this food was horrible. Chips and salsa was gross. Paste is better. Ordered green chicken enchiladas and I got rolled enchiladas with cubed chicken that looked like fajita chicken.
(1)Stephanie S.
At last another restaurant option to satisfy my mexican food cravings, and it's only minutes (minute?) from my house. The red sauce is tasty, the salsa is spicy and garlicky, and the beans and rice are flavorful. We got take-out so can't comment on the service except that as I walked into the restaurant to pick it up the hostess asked how I was doing and if I was "MIchael" (the name we gave for the order), she had the ticket all ready to go, no having to find my way to the bar like some other restaurants do their take-out, and the order was then brought out immediately. Granted, this was at 5 pm on a Sunday evening (yes we keep old-people-dinner hours) so it wasn't too busy. They even wrapped my tacos separately so they wouldn't get soggy sitting in the enchilada sauce! Speaking of, the chicken tacos were tasty but next time I'm going to get my boyfriend's order, the Monterey chicken enchiladas, wonderful chicken-y, cheesy goodness!

used to be good, but somehow it's really gone down
(1)Kelly H.
Restaurant is cute. Service was good. The food is overpriced. My cheese enchiladas were very skimpy on the cheese. The enchilada sauce was straight out of a can. Beans were good. Iced tea was weak. My companion's chimichanga was pretty small and it was 12 bucks. The best thing was the chips, as they appeared to be homemade. Salsa was decent, but made of all canned goods. As we were leaving my companion said, "That was a 20 dollar meal, not a 30 dollar meal." I was thinking the exact same thing. It was OK but not great. Way overpriced. Good place to take someone who doesn't know what real Mexican food tastes like.
