At Mi Amigo's Mexican Grill, we believe that items made fresh provide a flavorful and authentic experience. Our Fresh Mexican cuisine is made fresh daily. If avocados are in season, ask your server to make a GUACAMOLE ALA MESA. They'll mash up an avocado with tomatoes, onion, cilantro, garlic, salt and pepper right at your table. Since 1977 Mi Amigos has been an Arizona tradition. We hope you'll enjoy Mi Amigo's Mexican Grill with it's vibrant atmosphere, friendly service and the most delicious fresh Mexican food!

The food is always good there.We got there after the evening rush so we had plenty of seating choices but were seated with a clump of people that benefitted the wait staff.Our waiter returned again and again to see how we were doing. We felt "rushed" when there was no reason.Our families choose Mi Amigos alot for Mexican fare.It is a good restaurant.I probably should have asked for a more private table.☺️🌞🔥

This has been one of my comfort food restaurants since high school. The chips are fresh and hot! The salsa has just the perfect amount of heat.
I usually get the table side guacamole, the enchilada-style bean and cheese chimichanga, and a margarita.
The tortilla soup is another favorite. My husband loves the street taco platter.
It you have visitors to Arizona, this is the budget friendly place to go! Remember to give an extra tip to your servers because they HUSTLE and are simply the best.
Sorry no food pictures with this review. Too busy eating and talking with friends 😉

Had a good time at a birthday party for a dear friend, but was not impressed with the restaurant as a whole! The occaision was fun here and the attention was very good, but the food overall was not impressive. Having the opportunity to savor many of their offerings through the buffet served for our party from tortillas, beans, carnitas, enchiladas and more, we had a first run at the foods. Again, not impressed. I hate to say it for an establishment with its OK ratings, the tastes reminded me way too much of Taco Bell. Sorry… but being honest!

My husband suggested we stop here. So glad we did. Our server Fernando was great. The food was very good. The only place I've found that has the deep red enchilada sauce that I love. We'll definitely be back. In fact why not tonite???

I have been enjoying this restaurant for over 20yrs. They had a location in downtown Phoenix that shutdown after COVID. I have had just about everything on the menu but my faves are the steak fajitas that comes out sizzling or the chimmy..

Been coming to this restaurant at all of it's many locations over tree years... This is the last one standing and I'm glad it's still around.
Flavorful food with lots of great options, the rice is my favorite of any place.
Always a friendly staff and pretty quick service.

My wife does not like Mexican food but I am a huge fan.
This place rates towards the bottom of the barrel. Reason: Oily food, dry meat and everything is over salted.
The refried beans were surprisingly good and the chili ripieno was pretty delicious.
Didnt spend much, $40 for two of us including a beer.
Would i eat here again, no way....

Whoever rated this restaurant anything less than 4.5 has me confused. First off, walking in we immediately noticed how beautiful the restaurant is. It was also exceptionally clean. My wife ordered the chicken chimichanga, my son ordered the street tacos and I ordered the Chile Relleno. Everything tasted awesome. The staff were very welcoming. The place really had a family feel to it. We later found out this was probably because a lot of the staff have been working together for 12yrs or more. Overall this was a really nice experience. If your ever in the area check this place.

A nice sit down Mexican restaurant. Staff was friendly and food was good. They have unlimited chips! So that always works for me! Everything was good, prices are higher for a typical Mexican restaurant but it's expected for the higher end vybe.

We've grown up going to this restaurant for years. It's clean, spacious, and the service is great.

Today we had an experience where a member of our party was served an alcoholic daiquiri after requesting a virgin drink. The manager, Sofia, walked over slowly to let us know the drink was in fact alcoholic, which was very upsetting. Our waiter brought a new one, and all was well.

At the end of the meal, I requested she not be charged($5) for the drink due to their mix up. Sofia (the manager) responded that because the other members of the party laughed, they wouldn't comp the drink

Tried this restaurant for the first time. We checked reviews before we went. We were very happy with the cleanliness of the restaurant. The staff is very friendly. No wait. Indoor seating. They do have a patio for when it is cooler out. The chips and salsa was delicious. I ordered the Numero Uno, which includes a shredded beef taco, a cheese enchilada, and a bean tostada. It was very good. My husband got the kearny Asada chimichanga. He really enjoyed it. For drinks we had a Margarita, and a corona beer which you can't go wrong. We will be back. It was delicious! Prices are reasonable.

Took my family from Michigan out to dinner we wanted some authentic Mexican without breaking the bank or doing food truck and Mi Amigo's fit the bill. Sit down dinner nothing fancy yet good food. Everyone was happy with their dinner and the price for 4 adults with 2 Marg's was under a Benjamin so everyone left fat and happy! If your looking for a no nonsense good Mexican dinner then try Mi Amigos

I like Mi Amigos especially their cheese enchiladas. Yesterday I went in for the special to take out because my family all worked different hours. They would not let me get the special which upset me because I had driven from the far south valley to come into Mesa to get the special. I looked on the the facebook page and nothing was said about not being able to order for take out. I can understand limiting it like Someburros does when they have a special. I will be going to Someburros since they are in my neighborhood and not bother about going to Mi Amigos any more. Also the Manager on duty early

I made a phone call order from work. I ordered shrimp fajitas dinner. I ask for grilled jalapeno. Waitress ask manager because she said they don't grill jalapeno. I said I had it on the side there before. Manager gave the okay and i said ill take 3 grill jalapenos. We didn't talk about the price. I assume it'll be 50 cent a piece or free with meal. I got there 15 minutes later. Happy and hungry. I was told 32.50. Excuse me, what?! How much is the bill? I looked at it the bill. I was caught off guard, manager charged me 2.25 each for 3 grilled jalapenos. I decline the chile order. I had to stop

Went for a birthday dinner and we were not disappointed. Everything was really good and the service was excellent. No problems with the seating or social distancing of tables. Uriel, our server, was AWESOME.

This establishment is in my Top 5. I dine here at least 3 times a month. The ambiance is clean, refreshing, and inviting. The staff is friendly and attentive. And the food is top notch, delicious, satiating.

Great food. I order the Chile Colorado con Carne burrito enchilada style. It was delicious. Authentic flavors. The salsa they brought with the chips was very good, just enough heat and the flavors were popping! I will definitely be visiting this place again.

Are waiter was really friendly and on top of keeping the drinks and salsa full. The food was excellent some of the best fajitas I have had and the food portions were decent. The prices are on the upper end. I aways get fried ice cream when ever it is on the menu it was good but I would put it my 3 best. The sopas were excellent nice and hot and chewy.

30+ of us had a holiday party in their private room. It was a buffet style meal with an ability to order off the menu if you desired. The buffet consisted of the standard tacos, enchiladas, beans, & chimichangas. Some of us ordered salads and those were good. The others enjoyed their buffet as well. Our server, Joseph, was amazing. He was attentive, helpful and friendly. A number of different beverages were available on the extra table. The room was somewhat noisy but a great size for all of us. We had piped in holiday music. I never felt too crowded. It was a pleasant eve.

TLDR; very very poor service...as if it were his first serving job. Food wasn't bad but not good either.

To the server: Please worry about side work after you've taken care of your tables. Cups and silverware can wait! Bus your tables and check on guests more than twice just for water refills...you could've increased your bill and therefore your tip.

The experience:
My boyfriend and I usually go to the Downtown Phoenix location. We like the food. We were in Mesa and decided to come here.


We got sat by a very sweet hostess who said "You came JUST in time...when it just stopped

Mi Amigo's has always been one of my favorite Mexican food restaurants. I'm picky about my fajitas and this place has some of the best. Their meat is perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. Everything else on the menu is good, too. This is close to the Tex-Ex food I grew up on. This store is clean with good service (for a slow Tuesday night dinner). I'm sad that this is the only one left in the east valley. I certainly hope this store stays open or I will need some recommendations for fajita places.
PS - I would have taken pictures, but I started devouring as soon as they set that

Excellent service. Our waitress Maddy was exceptional. Service was outstanding. She was energetic, attentive and very friendly. I had the chicken fajitas, while there was plenty of food I thought it was a bit bland tasting.
My best friend had the street tacos, she raved over them. Pam had the tamales and said it was very good as well.
The line margarita on the rocks was tasty as well. The guacamole was made right at the table and it was good too. I have definitely had more flavorful guacamole but it was tasty.
Location was good. Clean restaurant.

A friend of mine really likes this place.. so I've been here several times .. the service is definitely a 5star .. the hostess and the waitstaff are all super friendly and accommodating.. chips and salsa also rank high .. drinks never run low..

It was pretty empty on today's visit.. the food is just so average .. not flavorful or authentic.. I ordered from the lunch menu the chicken chimi with rice & beans.. the plate arrived and it was super hot but the inside of the chimi was cold.. a chimi is fried, the inside should not be cold. . The flavor was just ok.. rice and beans also
