   We tried the restaurant because we had a gift card. We already frequent a couple of very good ma & pa Mexican restaurants, but we did not expect this chain restaurant to match their quality. We shared 4 items: -nachos with 5 different dips and toppings; this was very good. The various familiar toppings were very flavorful. They were quick to bring out more chips when we ran out. -Ribs appetizer: This was the best dish we tried. The plate had 6 meaty ribs with a very distinct and interesting flavor, this was nicely done. -6 various tacos. There's a choice of flour or corn taco shells, we chose the corn of course. This was very disappointing. We had a variety of beef birria, chicken tikka and pulled pork. The beef had ok flavor, though not nearly as good as the other Mexican places we go to. The other tacos were very bland. The pork had no marinade and was devoid of any Mexican spices of flavors, very dry as well. The chicken was doughy and rubbery. The filling was generous though. -Mahi mahi tacos: The fish was very dry, overcooked, and again devoid of Mexican spicing. We did not finish it. -The taco shells were also not heated, cold taco shells is a no-no for me. The service was very good, our waitress was excellent. We did give our opinion of the food, and they comped us the taco dish, which was nice. We don't expect chain restaurants like this to change things dramatically, the place was humming and I guess most people are fine with the food. But we won't be back. We did not try their maguarittas.

   We requested corn tortilla due to my girlfriend’s gluten intolerance but our first taco came with flavour tortilla and second round came with corn. We realized when we get the second round. She had a stomach issue all night long.

   We absolutely love it at Anejo. The food is always delicious. We got the mail Zalal Saft tasting platter to share. By far one of my favourite appetizers there. I had three tacos. The beef, crispy fish and mushrooms. The beef was absolutely delicious. The crispy fish was good, but it needed some sauce on it so I added the salsa Verde from the sampler. The mushroom with walnuts was over seasoned and I would probably forgo it the next time but I’m glad I tried it at least once.

   I’ve always loved this restaurant and couldn’t wait to share it with my boyfriend, but this visit was a disaster. Service was awful—our entire experience lasted just 32 minutes. My order came out wrong despite specific allergy instructions, and we didn’t get plates, napkins, hot sauces or drinks until 13 minutes after the incorrect food arrived. When my order was finally remade, the rest of my table had already finished, so I had to take my food to go. I’m shocked by how disappointing this visit was after so many great past experiences. I hope this was just an off day.

   Our server, Armando, was extremely informative and professional. We thoroughly enjoyed our tableside guacamole and molcajete de carne. Will definitely be back soon to try out other menu items.

   I have been here many times before, but today it was a little bit different. I must praise the service and the manager. We ordered tacos and when I wanted to apply their famous spicy mayonnaise ( the white bottle), it simply splashed all over the table. ( It was some chunk from the spicy paprika inside)Of course we got it on our clothes, all over our pants, shirts and jackets… The managers came to us and she apologized for our incident. She offered to pay for our dry cleaning and the meal was on the house. So I must say that was very kind and thoughtful. Will forget about this incident and will definitely come again. Tacos were delicious as always!

    Absolutely love this place. Although it is not authentic Mexican food, it is absolutely delicious. We have been to this location 6 times, always during Happy Hour. All their tacos flavours are delicious and the Spicy, Lime Cilantro Margarita is exquisite and such a great pairing with the taco flavours. The staff is always friendly and service is quick. Today we visited with a group of 8 and although we had only reserved a table for 6 our server Brian was very helpful and accommodated our extra guests. Very much recommend this location.
