Azteca Grill Mexican Food Restaurant: Your Go-To Spot for Authentic Mexican Cuisine in Big Bear Lake

One of the best restaurants in town, have many options of dishes, flavors are outstanding really tastes like Mexican food. I believe the shrimps on the brazas are the best, also salsas are great, when you arrive to the place the quickly find seat for you and your friends, then right after the bring the chips and salsas, I can tell the make dishes like no other. Fresh and fast!

Loved this restaurant. Great food, good pricing and top notch service. Special shout out to Mari who was attentive, good spirited and made us THE BEST skinny spicy jalapeño margaritas. We came two nights in a row for dinner, so that says it all.

We travel 2 1/2 hours to dine in the restaurant. The food was excellent. I ordered the Mojara Frita and it was delicious, they cooked it perfectly, crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. But let me tell you about their Cadillac Margarita, it was the best margarita I’ve ever had. Service is amazing and consistent and the atmosphere was inviting.

so glad i came. they have indoor and outdoor seating and they gave me a choice. i was constantly being checked on and i love the humor the staff has. i went during the evening so they had live music. it wasn't crowded considering it was dinner time. the food was great but i gotta say my favorite part was the drink i ordered, i definitely recommend the mangoneada. i ordered the california burrito, which is as big as my face. it comes enchilada style unless you say otherwise.

The food was delicious, and the service was super fast. The staff is so welcoming. We were looking for a pet-friendly place, and this restaurant was perfect. They gave my dog water right away, and she enjoyed her pet plate.

Great spot with big burritos and Margaritas! Been here a few times. Would recommend.

Popped in for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon after a day at Boulder Bay. It was a pretty hot day, so of course I started with a nice cold skinny margarita and while it was made nice and skinny, it wasn’t potent at all. The salsa they served were very tasty but it would’ve been nice if the chips were warm. I had the shrimp cocktail and it was a very nice large portion and they give you quite a lot of shrimp! Love all the crunch and textures inside like the cucumber and onions. The base sauce was a little too sweet for my liking, but otherwise it was pretty darn delectable. Nice comfortable seating indoors and a nice covered cozy patio outdoors. Eduardo served me and while he was very friendly and brought everything I ordered out very quickly. He was maybe just a little too attentive. I had just been served my drink and a minute later he asked if I was ready to order. A few minutes later, he asked again. I like to relax a bit after I get my drink and peruse the menu & enjoy the atmosphere. I don’t want to feel rushed. There was maybe two other people at the time I was there so maybe that’s why he was so attentive. Pretty decent prices! I recommend this restaurant.
