Editorial Review of Old Town Mexican Cafe

The famous Old Town Mexican Café is filled with brilliant colors, laughing crowds, the jubilant rattle of maracas, and the steamy sizzle of hot fajitas. When the lines are at their peak, the restaurant is also filled with rumbling tummies. However, the scenery compensates for the wait, and once you actually make it to a table and are presented with your dish, any frustrations will be immediately forgiven. Try the cheese-stuffed Steak Azteca, the corn bowl Sopapillas, hot rotisserie chicken, or the crispy open-faced quesadillas, and wash it all down with a piquant Bloody Maria. Before meandering on after dinner, pause to watch the "Tortilla Ladies of Old Town" preparing corn and flour tortillas from scratch—more than 7,000 daily.

Added 04/25/11 Subpar

This is just average "Mexican" food. Nothing here is too special, most entrees are bland and uninspired. The tortillas are good, though!

Added 04/20/11 Great Place to Stop in Old Town

Old Town Mexican Cafe is not your average Americanized Mexican dining experience (although they do serve hamburgers...). The atmosphere is colorful and has a traditional feel to it. If you're used to getting your burritos from a little taco shop or drive through, then yes, the prices are a little high, but the food is good. They also serve vegetarian beans in their vegetable burrito, which is much appreciated by me!

Added 04/19/11 Better Mexican to be had

Maybe it's just me, but I rarely have a great Mexican meal at a sit down restaurant. The taco shop is king of the city and that isn't changing anytime soon. For a fraction of the price, I could have eaten like a king! At least the staff is nice...

Added 10/25/09 Such a terrible experience.

There is no way, I will ever go back here. First off, the wait for our drinks (soda) took about 20 min. The cheese crisp (about $6.00) is exactly that. A burnt , taco sized tortilla with burnt cheese on top. Not only did the waitress spill salsa on our 6 month old, she also proceeded to try and offer my fiance her cell phone number, because he "looked like they might have things in common". The chicken tacos were huge, but very bland. Not worth the money, and definately not deserving of a tip. Yummy salsa though, and the bussers cleaned up fast.
