My fried and I find the food delicious. The Pollo con mole for me was rich and thick with ingredients. As for my friend it was the salad al carbon that keep her taste buds satisfied.The frozen magaritas are second to none

What makes this place "special"- There is so much to say about how bad this place is, it is hard where to begin. Let's start with the fact that our "hostess" (who was also a waitress and bartender) told us we would have a 30 minute wait, by shoving her finger in my face to hold on before taking our name. THEN 45 minutes later, we sat down, ordered our appetizer, and waited another 45 minutes to luke warm nachos. They were made with what could otherwise be described as jalapeno flavored ragu. Not to mention the nachos were cold, and we only received them after asking where our food was. Another 10 minutes later, two of us got our entrees, and my other friend didn't even get her meal. When asking the waiter where her food went, he simply said "that's not on our menu" and walked away. Would have been nice if they didn't serve tamale's to NOT PUT IT ON THE MENU. Then, when the bill came, we were charged for the entree we never received that apparently "wasn't served." All in all, do NOT go there. You will waste time, money, and a perfectly good meal gone bad.

never write revies but have to say that this little mexican restaurant is tops!! I am a mexican food lover and have been all over the city but this one really impressed me. I am originally from the west and the mexican food is much much better out there but I love la azteca and highly recommend it!!! Most margaritas have to much sour mix and this one was just right...my only complaint was the serving of guacamole which was delicious was a little small---otherwise everything was perfect!!!

i went to new york for the first time of my life today and my friend jamale took me to his best's friends resteraunt and it was beutiful.it looked liked mexican hevan. the service in that resteruant was the best. you couldnt find that kind of service in any kind of resteraunts. the owner might have been the nicest person i have ever meet.but the best part was the food they had great tortia chips with a very good but spicy dipping sauce and their guacamolie was awsome but best of all they had great desserts and everything when you eat there make sure you get a bannana wrap with cinnamon on top and whip cream it is the best dessert i have ever tasted

What Happened? I had a terrible meal there and the NOISE! I thought maybe it was just me (went with a group of friends). The idea was to get together - so I said Nothing. Then some days later, I check with 2 others (of the 6) and they also did the same (said nothing). We all had something different and we all thought the food was TERRIBLE! The sangria was so so and the nosie (did I mention the NOISE) un bearable. Service was adequate, but very slow. You had to repeat a few times to get what you wanted. The prices were very high for the quality. Chipoltie is Gorumet compared to what was served here (and I did have a combo with a burrito - so I can compare). If the food was bland that would be one thing: the rice was and needed some of the salsa to add some flavor). There was something about the refried beans that I can not place and do NOT want to... they just were not good. The cheese enchilada was Cold and seem artificial. Well you get my point. What a crappy meal it was and that Noise! I felt like that I should have been paid to eat there. Will I go there again = NEVER! Will I tell others how bad it was = You bet! Other than the friends... it was NOT worth it!
