    The service here is really good. I got seated immediately and before I knew it a margarita was at my table. The margarita was the best thing I had. The food was ok. It came out really quick. I had an enchilada and burrito combo. They were identical other than size. The beef didn't have much flavor and both were bland. The rice and beans were better. I was disappointed as this was the highest ranked restaurant in the area.

    Took the husband out for his birthday weekend and we came here. The atmosphere is really nice and tonight they had a live band!!! I told the waiter that it was my husband's birthday and they came and did a big song and dance for him. This place is a good place to go and throw a few back!!!

    Came here for lunch and split the shrimp fajitas flaming cheese. It was pretty good, but nothing special. Not a lot of flavor. Sweet tea was on point though haha

    Just typical beans and rice. Tasteless meat wrapped up in a shell. I've had way better. No love in this food. Servers were great and outward property appearance very nice.

    Good local Mexican food. Was in town on business. They are set up for take out. If I come back to the area I'll be back. I had the Poblanos and they were awesome

    Great prices and they give you a lot of food. As long as you aren't expecting authentic Mexican this is a good place to fill your stomach that will keep the tastebuds happy. Service was fast and when you sit down they give you a huge plate of tortilla chips and plenty of salsa which will be more than enough for two.

    Food is good. The menus were dirty, I don't like the auto taxation. 15% tip added if 6 or more. I tip by service. Auto tip usually guarantees fair service but not good or great service. This proved true here. The auto tip amount line was there but it was not very noticeable. I guess they hoped I would double tip. Sorry the service didn't warrantee that

    We love the authentic Mexican food-tamale in corn husk, wonderful chili relleno, generous guacamole, heavenly shrimp salad. Also great, friendly service. Love the decor and music which makes you feel like you are in Mexico!

    This is not where you want to go if you are a fan of authentic Mexican food. This was very Americanized. If you prefer your salsa on the bland side and queso (cheese) on everything , then you will be happy here. I was craving Mexican on a long drive home so stopped in.

    Service was good. But I barely made it back to my hotel room (right behind the restaurant) before I threw up. Don't do it folks.

    Great chicken quesadilla! The mexican rice was good too. A lot of mexican places' mexican rice is always dry. This wasn't, it was perfect! I sat at the bar and the bartender was real cool and attentive. Got a chicken quesadilla, side of rice, and a dos equis for under $10. Great value!

    Since most people only seem to write reviews when they are not happy, thought I would write when I was happy. Good service, friendly greeting. Great margaritas. Food was good but not outstanding but large quantity for the price so good value. All 3 of us liked it fine.

    Great stop right off the interstate! Enjoyed the break from standard fast food. Very reasonably priced lunch menu even available on Saturday! We even left with to go boxes. Only challenge is the entrance. You go around behind hotels to access it.

    This place is not horrible. It is just not good, and cost more than I want to pay for lower than average mexican food. I have tried it three times since it has been open. It has never impressed me. The fajitas are bland and flavorless. People say they like it, I just dont see how. If you want mexican food in Attalla, Los Arcos is like 200yds away and so much better, plus cheaper.

    Old Mexico has been on my "To-Do" list for quite some time, so Girlfriend and I stopped by here for dinner the other night. I really enjoy Mexican restaurants and I was really pleased with this place! The restaurant is decorated with a lot of "old wood" and lots of items reminiscent of Mexico There's a huge fan over part of the bar and dining area and by huge I mean ginormous. The booths were big and comfortable and the air conditioning was nice and cold (especially considering how hot it was outside). As soon as we were seated, we were brought some tasty warm chips and salsa. We immediately dug in. Our waiter was very friendly and came over right away to take our drink orders. After we got our drinks, we placed our food order... I had the steak fajitas, and Girlfriend had the Mexican Lasagna. It didn't take any time at all for our food to arrive. I was surprised at how quickly it showed up! I got three plates of food with my steak fajitas. There was the standard plate full of sour cream, lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, rice and refried beans. All the toppings were fresh and very good. I used some of the rice and beans in my fajitas too. Plate number two consisted of a small foil wrapped package of three tortilla shells. Plate three is the "hot plate" and had a huge heaping portion of steak, green peppers and onions. It was so much food that I needed more tortilla shells (which you can get for free, all you have to do is ask). The steak was moist and tender and was seasoned well. It had such a great flavor, that I could have just eaten the steak! I ate all of this huge meal that I could, but I couldn't finish it all... I did manage to steal a bite of Girlfriends Mexican Lasagna, which consisted of meat and veggies wrapped in a pasta like shell and smothered in cheese. It was cheesey-greasy heaven. Someone at your table should definitely get it so that you can all steal a bite! This was a great restaurant experience. Our waiter kept up with the drink refills and was very friendly. The food was good and if you are looking for some good Mexican food, you should give Old Mexico a shot!

    We are regulars at Old Mexico and we have never had anything but good experiences. My husband loves the fish tacos! We also frequently share the fajitas and it is plenty for both of us. My son is a very picky eater but loves Old Mexico. You also must get the Margarona if you want a big, strong drink!

    Great Mexican food! Stopped in with the family, chips and salsa were terrific, I recommend the tacos. They came jam paked with meat and cheese, hardly any room for the hot sauce. I will definitely be returning!

    We love Old Mexico! best Mexican fare in town. Staff is always friendly and accommodating when swaping out menu options. LOVE the Mexican Lasagne! # plates are great too. El Tapitio & Villa Fiesta are a couple of other very popular Mexican spots in town and they do not come close. They have gotten to be very unsanitary and smelly. Old Mexico is awesome! They have other chains in Huntsville, AL, Scottsboro, AL, Rome, Ga and others around the area, but unsure of all locations, but none of the others carry the same name Old Mexico...try them too when you see one...they are called Buena Vista...menus very similar and just as good.

    Excellent service, food, and brew. While staying at the Hampton, this will be my new restaurant of choice rather than Ruby Tuesday.

    Not bad but not as good as Villa Fiesta.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
