Good service - Had lunch with my husband. We order fried mojarra and shrimp fajitas. Fair price Good amount Quick service Kind observation: add more salt to the dishes :)
I came to eat here yesterday with my family for Father’s Day, the food was excellent, and the service was as well. We were attended by Naomi, we had a great time, and were treated like family. The drinks were great especially the micheladas, the best I’ve had in a while. My only complaint while there was the family that allowed their children to run around the restaurant and almost bumped into other guests. Besides that, everything was great, thank you to the servers and bartender who promptly served us, despite it being busy during the time we went!!!
Mexico Lindo is a must-visit if you're in San Jose! The food is absolutely incredible--authentic, bursting with flavor, and made with fresh ingredients that truly capture the essence of Mexican cuisine. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, but what really stands out is the amazing staff. Lino and the rest of the team go above and beyond to make you feel like family. Their service is top-notch, attentive, and always with a smile. If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is the spot. Do yourself a favor and check it out--you won't regret it!
That was a great outing on a Tuesday night, place was not very busy. Love the decor, music from the bar, fajitas were delicious and awesome service! Will definitely go there on a more regular basis to explore the menu! update we have come here many times over the last year and I have never been disappointed in the food or the service received. side note: personally I don't even know why people go to Luna on the Alameda which is way over price and not that great at all. I think Mexico Lindo is much better.
Delicious food and great service, especially for a Saturday! Menudo was a bit overcooked.
Our go to dinner spot! Been coming to this location for years. There's also other locations around San Jose but we like this location best. I switched up today's order differently from what I normally order but that's the good thing about Mexico Lindo, everything I have tried there has been so good! Today we went for lunch and I tried the Majado Burrito Super. We took our food to go but by the time we got home our food was still nice and hot and ready to enjoy. So filling and saucy, they overload it with meat, rice, beans avacados and everything else you'd get in your burrito. I'm working my way around the menu and can't wait to try something new on our next visit.
We enjoyed our visit so much! The portions are huge and the food is delicious. I like the fact that even though they serve large portions, the plating isn't so bad. Our waitress was very kind, attentive and patient with all of our questions regarding their menu. Because of this, we tend to go more often when my friend comes to visit. We even have a favorite table now. If you ever go to visit, I hope you enjoy yourselves too!!! #Chicken Quesadilla #Chile Relleno #Carnitas #Steak and Eggs
