We were looking for a place to eat on a rainy night, with our dog. The Plaza Azteca had a covered outside porch. When we got there, no one was eating on the porch, but they set it up for us, and sent a server. He quickly offered to bring our dog a bowl of water, and a small bowl of chicken! Wow! No one had been that nice to us. Then we ordered our food. We both had a delicious Margarita. I had chicken tacos, and my husband ordered a taco salad. The food was fresh and delicious. It was a great evening, the last one of our trip, and I feel that we ended it in a great way!

We visited as a family on a random tyesday for lunch. The restaurant was not very busy when we arrived but still we were made to wait at the door and then for w while to order while there were several people rolling silverware in the middle of the dining area. They saw us standing there and ignored us...it was bizarre. Then as we needed to order it for things as we ate this continued?!? Our waiter was nice though he seemed overwhelmed....the food was pretty good, chicken wasnât very seasoned but was nice white meat. Good salsa. Tacos were soaked by the time they arrived to the table so shells were inedible but we didnât want to trouble our server. If they are off shift maybe they should do side work elsewhere as it gives off the air of indifference to the guests who need assistance.

Been to this place about 8 times now. Good atmosphere and good beers. Very laid back and a lot of locals. Taco Tuesday is always fantastic. If you go around main dinner time of course its going to be packed. We were there about 5 or 6 and it was pretty packed but the service was not bad, actually for how busy it was, it was good. You have your choice from bean, chicken, or beef tacos. Huge tacos well worth the $1.50. Highly recommend this for anyone in the OBX, except if you are looking for Mahi Mahi or something.

The Key Lime margarita made such an impression on me that I'm still raving about it weeks later. It was the perfect blend of tart with a sweet aftertaste. The food did not disappoint either. The servings are generous, prices reasonable, and awesome service. Parking is a little tight, so, it's probably a good idea to get there before the evening rush.
