My favorite Mexican restaurant. Staff is friendly and especially helpful if you’re trying to learn Spanish! The food is great.
We celebrated our son’s birthdays here last night and the staff was amazing. They really made it fun and special and Melba especially was great with her whipped cream application. Thank you everyone for accommodating oir large party.
We have had dinner here twice when driving through town. Both times we were very pleasantly surprised with the quality, portions, service and price. Shrimp Diablo was delicious and nicely seasoned, husbands seafood fajitas were as well. Hesitated to get seafood here but it was excellent. Salsa had no kick but there was hot sauce.
Great service, great food, and very little wait. The staff is friendly and attentive. Even though we were in the middle of the lunch rush and we had a large group, we didn't have to wait long for orders to be taken or the food served. They were on top of the refills, additions, and great about checking with us. The food was excellent, as always. No one had any complaints. The portion sizes were filling. The price is good, especially considering the quality of the food and service. The menu options are good. I would recommend Mi Puerto without reservation.
Just a great place to get good Mexican food. Repeat customer many times and they have never served a bad dish and it always comes quickly
The staff work together like no other restaurants i have ever been to. Fast and friendly service they can handle any situation and rush hours are normal and they don't skip a beat The service is the same amount of time. Very fast and efficient.
Wonderful stop! Everything was excellent! As a large family... Stops can be tricky sometimes... But they didn't bat at eye at our party of 7. We were seated quickly. Service was efficient.. Food was great. Staff was friendly. Price was affordable. Absolutely would go back!
Some friends of mine, and I, we're passing through the area, and needed a place to stop for dinner. A quick search, on Google Maps, showed this restaurant as being close and highly rated, We were not disappointed. When we arrived there were plenty of seats available, the staff was friendly, and it was clean. I had a Burrito Grande, with chicken, which was delicious. A very good blend of ingredients and spices, along with the cheese sauce. One of my friends had the Fajitas Marinas with just the fish. It came with plenty of fixings, tortillas, and appeared well prepared. He said it was very good as well. Overall, we saw many people in there, on a Wednesday evening, that appeared to be locals enjoying dinner. If I lived locally, I'd dine there again!
