Tlaquepaque Restaurant

Honestly, I am not a huge Mexican food person, however, My family will definitely be coming back! It looked tiny on the outside, but it’s quite spacious. I liked all the décor as well. When we walked in, we were quickly seated and drinks were served. My mom and I had a coupon for bogo on the pick 3 entrée and my boyfriend got the super fajita quesadilla. The food was amazing! The portion was large but we took it home and had some yummy food for the next day. The waiter was very attentive and answered our questions. Best Mexican food I have ever had and will gladly go again!

I’ve been to the Mt. Airy location as well as Pilot Mtn. location and while the food is excellent, the portion size is sad. I ordered 2 pelusas to go in Pilot & had to go back because the food BARELY covered the bottom on the tin plates they were put in. They remade them and lets up keep the 1^st 2 which was cool, but the 2^nd ones weren’t much better. One pelusa at El Agavero would make 2 of Tlaquepaque’s. At the Mt. Airy location I ordered the combo plate with burrito, enchilada, and taco. The burrito looked like an enchilada. El Agavero is the better choice for Mexican in Mt. Airy. As far as the Pilot location, I’d go to Mi Pueblo in King first.

I tend to have been a regular with this restaurant since my family and I have first discovered it back in 2005. First of all, it’s an excellent authentic Mexican restaurant! The overall vibe of the restaurant is lively, and you can definitely expect business to be booming during the week days and weekends. The only complaint that I have had with this restaurant is that since there have been at least one or two new employees coming in, some of them have been a little rude in terms of providing service.
But do not let the occasional rude server get to you. This is coming from about 2 instances over 30 or so visits to the restaurant. Speaking from experience, the servers are for the most part friendly and willing to wait for you.
The food itself is amazing. For starters, I would definitely recommend getting the carnitas, fajita nachos or the pelusa. Those are quite some excellent dishes. And for those who do wonder, there is alcohol served at this place.
Overall, I give this a ⁴⁄₅. Excellent food, great atmosphere, but the service might need to use a slight improvement in attitude. However, it really should not be that much of a problem. Definitely recommend here if you plan to visit Mount Airy.

On a recent road trip we were looking for a place to stop for lunch. We looked on Unilocal and this place came up with good ratings. The stopped in and all I can say is what a great choice we made. Food was fantastic and the staff was top notch. It was so good that we stopped back in today on our way home from our road trip. Great food for great prices! Enjoy.

In taking a trip to my boyfriend’s hometown, we landed here… It’s one of his local haunts. The décor isn’t the prettiest in the world but the yumminess makes up for it. My enchiladas were fantastic. Very flavorful! The prices were very reasonable and the service was in point. My one negative was that the queso that we ordered with the complimentary chips was very runny. It’s pretty much a given that I’ll find a way to get food on me while I’m noshing but this queso really gave me a run for my money.
