Mazatlan Mexican Restaurant | Cornelius — Restaurant in Cornelius

This is my absolute favorite Mazatlan location of them all. Don't get me wrong, the food is delicious at every location, but there's something special about this location that has an authentic cantina feel and atmosphere. Servers are friendly and food is always fresh. My favs are the cheese enchilada, chalupa, tacos and rolled taquitos. My husband's favorite is the chimichanga. I ALWAYS get a 20oz classic margarita with my dinner, which is perfectly strong and the rim salted well. The margaritas here are better than The Margarita Factory in Beaverton. This is a family-friendly restaurant, though there's enough nooks for a low-key date night or hanging out with friends. We came here once with out-of-town friends, a party of five, and the servers just threw some tables together and we had a great time. The one ding I'd give was the Piña Colada I ordered (once) though tasty, was very weak and was basically juice, so I'm sticking with the margaritas. The pico de gallo is DELICIOUS, which I use with a bit of salt for my chips instead of the salsa, which is a tad too spicy for me. I personally am not a fan of the tri colored chips, I prefer just regular tortilla chips, but I'll overlook that for all the other good food. Can't wait for my next...

It's not too expensive and the food is the best. I've been coming here since i was in the womb. My parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents are all regulars. We come her to celebrate birthdays and other life events such as Me getting my GED. The Cornelius location is a second home. When I'm stressed I slip in to for a number 2 every time. Their food is amazing, and comforts of me. I always love it and sometimes I just crave it. The staff knows my family well and talk to my grandparents as if were best friends. They always greet you with a smile, they joke around with you and celebrate with you. It's no wonder my grandparents always took us here for everything. If you have any doubt about coming here just give it a chance because it's one of the best places in the world and if you become a regular you will always know no matter what you have a comforting place to go to. I can't wait till after quarantine. My whole family and I are going to go to Mazatlan to pay my grandma respects since...

Haven't been here in years; Decided to stop for dinner tonight. The restaurant was clean. It was also pretty empty, although it was a Tuesday night. We enjoyed their cocktails; they were properly poured and were tasty. Was surprised to hear they have up to a 42oz cocktail! My wife enjoyed the combination fajitas, and I had the enchiladas rancheras. Drinks were Miami ice and Alabama slammer. The service was top notch, our waiter was on top of our every need; we never had to call anyone to check on us. The food was a bit on the mild flavored side; but while we were there, the only two other tables asked for mild salsa and ranch. How grossly white; which I'm sure is why they talor their food to a mild pallet. A pleasant visit over all, and will return. Update: the owner quickly responded with a positive response. I really respect an owner whom replies quickly and non defensively. It shows...
