The chips are very fresh, the staff welcoming and attentive, the food attractive and delicious. You choose the protein and dish. We are especially loving the super nachos lately. Great al pastor.
The food is amazing!! This place may be bad for indecisive people because there are so many menu options. They have over 30 combo plate options! The picture is a two taco and one enchilada plate. (Yes there is an enchilada in all that gooey deliciousness!) Not only is the food good but they had great columbian coffee and the staff is very upbeat and welcoming. This may have to be a new favorite to add to the list. Can't wait for my next visit.
Where do I even begin! I live my life by always getting combination plates at places like this. Lets you taste a lil bit of everything! I was blown away! Tostada? Amazing. Burrito? Perfect. Taco? Incredible. Service? Awesome, our host told us to not even worry because everything was gonna be so good. She did not lie!
When we moved up here a little over 5 years ago, it was really hard to find good mexican food. We are so grateful to have found Valley Aztec! We eat there at least twice a month and we're always happy! My family especially likes the Camerones de la diabla and the chile rellano.
Truly authentic Mexican food. I ordered a churro and got back the most delicious dessert I've had in my life! The tamales were excellent, every bite of this dinner from the salsa to the rice and beans to the stunning #5 was heavenly. Could not recommend this place enough!
The food here is Delicious! I was visiting the Redwood National Forest from Colorado and as a Hispanic women who cooks very well, I was very happy with the well seasoned chicken enchiladas, sauce, rice and beans and other dishes my family enjoyed. I would definitely eat here again. Hats off to the fantastic female Chefs in the kitchen, comida rica y sabroso!
I love this place. The food is delicious and the service is sweet. Everything is good. I'm addicted to the chile relleno. I ask for more beans than rice and they happily oblige.
Overall it was a good experience. The Oaxacan style food was delicious. The service was quick and friendly and very attentive to all our needs. The atmosphere felt like I was sitting in my mom's kitchen , very comforting.
