San Andres Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Monroe

UPDATE / star rating from 3 to 5 Things sure can change in a year! Glad to say that I went back with the family and enjoyed an amazing meal after our previous visit was a little less than stellar.

Staff seemed genuinely happy to be there, place was very busy. Most tables were full and there were even diners enjoying the outdoor patio area during our visit. All of our food was brought to the table at the same time and we had a great dinner together.

So glad we decided to return!!

±+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ PREVIOUS 3 STAR REVIEW Party of 3 on a Sunday evening for dinner. Not busy, a few patrons at the bar and a few larger tables of guests enjoying their meals.

2 hostesses were on staff and seated us quickly.

Server came to table. After ordering drinks and nachos we ordered our meals and in a short period of time, 2 of our 3 meals were brought to the table by kitchen staff. We came to eat as a family and didn't want to start until we were all served. We waited and waited for the final plate.

Finally, our server returned to the table; not to see how our food was, but to refill our son's drink. We asked him about the 3rd plate. He apologized and asked what we ordered, went to the kitchen, and the meal was delivered shortly afterwards.

We came in to enjoy a family dinner and by the time we all had our meals, 2 meals were semi-warm. NONE (seriously none....hostesses, servers, bartender, kitchen staff, lady who brought chips out).....none of the employees were smiling, no one greeted us or even just said hi when we walked in.

Our server had an opportunity to really turn the situation around and he chose to simply blame the kitchen for the mistake, stating he didn't know why the kitchen didn't cook it when it was on the ticket.

The food was amazing!!! Huge portions, flavors were great!!! It was sooooo good!!

So I'm at a crossroads. Do I never go back because the service was horrible? Do I give it another shot or just order take out? We'll see. Luckily, there is no shortage of Mexican restaurants around so no need to spend money where I don't feel...

San Andres Mexican Restaurant: A Love Letter to Tequila and the Greatest Burrito Never Written

You ever walk into a place and just know you’re about to make some questionable decisions? That’s San Andres, and I mean that in the best possible way.

Let’s start with the bartenders—absolute rockstars. These magicians behind the counter could probably mix a margarita blindfolded, mid-earthquake, and still get the salt rim perfect. They don’t just pour drinks; they curate experiences. Need a cocktail that reminds you of poor life choices and even poorer decisions? They’ve got you. Want something that tastes like liquid vacation? Done. I’m convinced they don’t serve drinks—just bottled confidence and regret, shaken, not stirred.

Now, let’s talk about The Burrito. Not just any burrito—my burrito. This wasn’t on the menu, which makes it cooler than your average order. Imagine the lovechild of sizzling fajitas and a burrito the size of a toddler. It had the perfect sear, the kind of flavor that makes you momentarily black out in joy, and enough meat to make a Texas BBQ pitmaster jealous. It wasn’t just food; it was a religious experience wrapped in a tortilla.

San Andres isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a lifestyle. If you want a quiet, boring meal, go somewhere else. But if you want top-tier bartenders who mix drinks with the precision of brain surgeons and a burrito so legendary it should have its own Wikipedia page, this...

The manager was completely in experienced, she had no knowledge of alcohol and state laws pertaining to an ID. My wife, who is clearly of age when sitting with our 15 and 18 year old children, the manager refused to serve her a margarita due to not having her ID with her so she showed the waitress a picture a picture of her ID and the manager came up and the waitress asked in Spanish if she could accept a picture of it, which digital ID Is a proper form of identification in the state of Georgia! And the waitress said I have seen them in here before and have served them, the manager still speaking in Spanish clearly and very obviously avoiding a conversation with us to discuss and ran off quick. My family , and the other family that was with us will not be back and we go to this restaurant a lot! I have seen underage kids numerous times being served. How they acted about and handled it was completely out of line and...
