I was very well taken care of by the young waitress they have, I believe her name was Ximena. She was very polite, attentive, and her positive attitude was very contagious. The food was delicious and the service was excellent.

We were looking for authentic Mexican. After reading many other favorable reviews we decided to give this restaurant a try. Absolutely wonderful experience. Quick service from very attentive staff. Food was cooked perfectly and exactly as ordered. The homemade tortillas are to die for. Definitely recommend highly, and would also come back next time I'm in town.

The food was excellent. The waiter allowed me to switch out the pork chops with the fajitas to the egg plate. I had a cup of menudo and it was excellent. Very reasonably priced.

Excellent food and service. Enchilada Fiesta (an enchilada sampler plate) is a great idea executed well. If you're a big fan of specials, they have them in abundance.

Los Nortenos is a great place to bring family and friends to enjoy a pleasant atmosphere and great food. Their staff are attentive and friendly. Restaurant is clean throughout. More importantly is their food. Homestyle tortillas compliment every meal and they never disappoint. Highly recommend.
