We ate here one evening while our son was in the hospital. I had a green chili type enchilada which was fantastic.

Tacos are awesome! I don't know what the beans were but they were out of this world. Been twice now and it's really good food. Certainly worth a stop in, friendly staff as well.

We were in the area shopping and worked up an appetite. We researched places nearby and this restaurant had good reviews on TripAdvisor so we decided to try it out. The chips are great and the food delicious. Staff was very friendly and attentive. We would eat here again when in the area...

This is a little storefront restaurant in downtown Athens. There are really two sides with a meeting room off to the right of the main dining area that makes it a surprisingly large facility. I was the Speaker for a local society and my family accompanied me. The food here, both off the menu, and at the buffet served to the meeting was very good. The atypical thing was the wings. The ones I had off the buffet were hot, crispy, well seasoned and tender enough for all the meat to come off the bone easily. I also enjoyed their salad, bean, rice, and fajita meat for tacos at the buffet. Very traditional but still a twist.

Very Good chips. Cheese dip is flavorful but a little runny and not anywhere near enough of it for the price. My wife and I had the Super Quesadilla in beef. Again Great flavor, perhaps would have been perfect with some more of the liquid queso ladelled on. Overall good experience. One of the better Mexican options in Athens.Hola! Doug C, thank you so much for your review, we love to hear from our customers, it really helps us. When we get nice reviews like yours it makes us feel awesome. I am so happy to read that you had a good experience. It was a pleasure having you and your wife. We hope to see you back soon. Brenda Vargas

This is not the first Mexi-Wing I've eaten at but it was by far the best. First it was an excellent lunch followed by a super dinner (and I only have to drive about fifty miles round trip for a meal.) We ll worth a stop if you enjoy Mexican food.

This food is so good, you will want to go back over and over, that can be dangerous to your waist-line. I ordered the Real dip, it has beef, chicken, and shrimp with loads of cheese. Not too shrimpy, tasted wonderful. The burritos must weigh 2 pounds each, they are huge and delish! The chips and salsa were wonderful. Drinks and plates for 4 adults with an appetizer to share and take home plates came to $60. So there are cheaper, but this was SO good, I will say it is worth it.
