What People Are Saying About Azteca's Bar & Grill

Featured Review

Sara C Rolater

Combining the best of a cantina and a club, this Mexican bar and grill knows how to bring the party--and the tortillas. Sporting a bit of a dive vibe inside, the scene can get raucous with patrons partaking in tequila-fueled karaoke some nights and dancing on weekends while a DJ spins on the second floor. Salsa is served warm and chunky, the lunch specials are cheap, and margarita lovers will appreciate that happy hour runs until 8pm. In addition to the usual Tex-Mex dishes, the diverse menu can accommodate vegetarians; other highlights include Mexican calzones, sizzling T-bones, grilled red…

Fantabulous time!!!

by mrzcarter

My first time there was a couple of months ago and let me tell you...their Margarita's are the best in town. They have karaokee night and great food...love the queso! Then afterwards, the club upstairs (2nd level VIP) on Fridays is off the chain. It's a great night for food, drinks, singing & dancing

NOT where I would recommend eating!

by RiverOaks

CAUTION: I had a $10.00 coupon with no expiration and the waitress stated that the new coupons were for $6.00. They REDUCED it even though it was valid. The manager even refused to honor the good coupon! BEWARE! On the other hand, the salsa is good and chunky, but the chips seem like the bagged ones. We like the food. very meal has been ruined by the environment. All I can honestly say is that it is LOUD in there. Tactfully trying to explain, keep out the kids, the cursing can be offensive, and I am not sheltered. Another way to put it is that the restaurant is seedy. We have eaten at a table and asked to move, to find that it is that way throughout the place. You will find the food good, but beware the type of crowd.
