Reviews For Lopez Mexican Restaurant

Our favorite local Mexican food spot. Everything we have had tastes great, reasonably priced (which is rare these days), and great service. Margaritas to go are also really good. They have catered to our house before also and the process was smooth and on time. Don't sleep on their carne guisada. So good!

We have been dining at Lopez for years. The staff are incredibly kind and are like friends to us. The food is delightful with large portions and short wait times. The atmosphere is cozy and enjoyable. It is our go to restaurant year after year.

I’ve eaten at Lopez in all locations, even the original. For over 35 years, I’ve always compared all other Mexican food to this! Always consistent, always amazing and always have servers that are fabulous!!! Love you guys! So amazing to see you grow as I’ve grown up! I always recommend Lopez over any other!!!

Lopez is my favorite Mexican restaurant! The food is authentic and every dish we've had is consistent and tasty. The salsa and queso is so good. Recommended dishes are the ground beef enchiladas, carne guisada, and carne guisada enchiladas.

The service at Lopez is outstanding. You get a preliminary server who sets you up with typical chip, salsa drinks and appetizers then the primary server kicks in. Great experience. The food is rich and delicious. Awesome!

I wondered about a restaurant attached to a furniture store, but it was really good! I found the regular margarita a little sweet. The Rey top shelf was great. My chicken flautas were meaty, crispy, and delicious. The salsa was fresh and spicy. Heck, anywhere that has good chips, salsa, and margarita is 75% of the way there. Lopez is Legit.

Excellent experience, and all the foods that we ordered are delicious Our server Rolando is a really good server, and he even accommodates my secret request to sing "Happy Birthday" to my husband. We went there for my hubby's birthday. It was our first time eating there. Just check my photos for recommendations. We highly recommend this restaurant. Have a wonderful day, everyone!
