Azteca's
We went to dinner last night at Azteca's in Wildwood. Wow. We go there often, especially on a Friday night when eVerything here is so crowded. We arrived around 6 and were seated immediately. They only serve beer and wine, but that goes well with Mexican food anyway. I had the Molcajete Caliente and it was delicious. Nice and spicy and authentic Mexican food. It is served in a cast iron pot and is more than enough for two people. I had the beef version, lots of slices of tender beef, pieces of baked potato and bell pepper and topped with cheese and green salsa. It is served with four warm flour tortillas. There is a wait for this as it takes time to get super hot in the oven. Yummy and only $10.50. Add a bottle of Negra Modelo and you have a feast. Imported beers are only $3.50. Domestics are $2.75. This is a small, family owned restaurant and everything is home made. They make the salsa every day and serve lots of freshly fried chips immediately when you come in, free refills too! Makes the wait time painless. It also comes with a side plate, or should I say platter, of beans, rice and guacamole salad. You all know how I feel about mom and pop operations. This place deserves a try if you are a fan of real Mexican food and they have a couple of American style dishes if someone in your group does not like any spice. It is located by the Sav-a-lot grocery store on 301, Main Street.

:agree: I have been there several times and the food is excellent!

I was there when it first opened and liked it very much. Food, service and prices are excellent. I believe the owners also own El Ranchito Mexican Restaurant in the Villages,,, which is also an extremely good restaurant.
|
We were there once and found the food and service to be excellent. Definitely a keeper.
It would be nice if they had a liquor license. |
Thanks for everyone's input. My wife and I have been looking for a good authentic mexican restaurant. From the posts, it looks like most everyone is pleased with this one.
|
We have been there many times. Every time the place was almost empty. Both at lunch and dinner, the food is always delicious. I would feel more comfortable if the place was a little more crowded.

Tried Latino Mas in Ocala. Best Mexican food I have had. Friends with us and said it was better than the Mexican restaurants in Arizona. Great chips with homemade salsa.
|
Love Axteca! Great service, great food!

We think the food is way too bland. Everything tasts sort of the same. Guess I am used to Tex-Mex, and this definitely isn't Tex-Mex.
Having said that, I thought they were very nice there, and the place seemed clean. I hope they can stay in business as it is very hard for restaurants to make it. Azteca management, if you read this post, please use a little more mexican spices in your dishes, and I don't necessarily mean 'heat'. |
I am from Texas (Fort Worth) and go to Azteca's often simply because it is the closest to actual TexMex I have been able to find.
I would love to find an El Chico, El Fenix, or any other place similar to those located almost on every corner back home. |
