EL Azabache Mexican Restaurant

I have never dealt with anything this ridiculous in a restaurant. I asked for a tamarind water with no ice. Then the waiter hit me with the most laughably stupid policy I’ve ever heard: "If you want no ice, we only fill the cup halfway." I honestly thought they were joking. Half the cup? For full price? Because I don’t like ice? Make it make sense. And yes, I had to ask for a separate cup of water because obviously I still wanted a full drink, not their sad little half-cup punishment for daring to prefer my beverage without frozen cubes in it. The whole situation was so absurd I couldn’t even be mad — I just laughed at how pathetic the policy was. On top of that, my daughter’s glass came broken at the top with jagged glass sticking out that was sharp to the touch, which is COMPLETELY unacceptable. Serving drinks in a damaged glass like that is dangerous and careless!!! and honestly just shows how little attention they pay to basic safety. Now for the food it was subpar, nothing special, and nothing more. I’ve eaten at countless places, and never once has any restaurant treated me like this. If you enjoy nonsense rules, being served unsafe–hazardous glassware, and being made to feel like a problem for ordering normally, this is the spot for you. I will never be coming back here again!!!Everyone else should run the other way.

I was there last Sunday at lunch time. I enjoyed their Azabache chimichanga more than any other place that I’ve been. This chimichangas was great with the beef, sautéed onions and green peppers! It was like a great fajita but fried and smothered in queso! YUMMY!

Very good steak tacos. Meaty with delicious choice of sauce. Beautiful employees with great hospitality.

There were 12 of us with only one server😭😭😭... The wait for everyone's order to come out, the forgotten items, or the extra ones added to the tab. She corrected them though. They should've had two servers for that amount of people! FOOD IS DELICIOUS THOUGH!!!

One of my absolute favorite places to eat! Great food!

Our family stopped in last night for Valentine's day dinner. The place was PACKED and they did wonderful. It took a little time to get our food, but that was expected with how busy they were. They're always attentive even when they're not busy. Our waitress Aurora was so kind and did an amazing job. She checked on us consistently and assured us our food would be out soon. The atmosphere, food, and the people were outstanding. This is our favorite Mexican restaurant to stop in at. Pictures of the food are from a previous visit.

The ambiance was wonderful. The service wasn't. The hostess led me back to my booth without a word of greeting. The server never came back once my good was delivered and left the check without a thank you it come again. Pretty sad service. The good was very good though. The typical chips and salsa were present. Içed tea was good. Had lunch special number nine: chicken burrito/beef burrito with a side of beans and rice. Followed up with fried ice cream. It you're just hungry for Mexican dishes and don't care about service, then you'll have a great experience.
