- EElsieVIPVancouver / British Columbia •105 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe had a lovely experience, Michaela was our server, she was attentive, she knew her menu and could make recommendations for dietary issues. She checked back with us several times. Our group had the Tortilla soup, spicy and full of shredded chicken, the huge chimichunga, the chicken lime meal with roasted veggies and the Tres enchiladas with rice and beans. All the food was the right temperature on hot plates, flavourful and enjoyable. Portion size was generous and prices moderate. Weren't drink much, so no comment on that.More infoBlue Agave Mexican CantinaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Desert Ridge•4.5

- DDebraVIPPhoenix / Arizona •25 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe brought out of town friends here for a gourmet take on Mexican food. Our hostess was gracious and seated us promptly. We started with delicious margaritas and some guacamole and chips. We were having fun visiting and we got no rush from our servers. Dinners included the shrimp enchiladas, chicken enchiladas, the filet and the carnitas. All very generous servings. Everyone LOVED their dinners. We also had a side of Brussels sprouts - not commonly found on Mexican restaurant menus but I totally recommend it. Sweet & salty and totally delicious! This was not an inexpensive dinner - over $300 for 4 people and only 3 of us drank; no dessert. But it’s worth it!More infoLa Hacienda at the Fairmont Scottsdale PrincessPrice: Moderate• Mexican• North Scottsdale•4.8
