The food is fabulous, the service top-notch and friendly. We travel about 45 minutes over the mountain just to get dinner here. The salsa is spicy, the only guacamole I will eat, the best ranchero sauce and amazing fried ice cream. Very highly recommended!

Passing by Azteca on Rte. 30, we made a spontaneous decision to stop for lunch. The service was friendly and our food was served remarkably quickly- we were filling up on really good chips and salsa so we were happy to have room for the generous portions. Good food, great value- we'll go back the next time we're in the... More

Full disclosure--I am from Southern California, so my personal bar is set rather high for Mexican food. Service was good, with hot fresh chips brought to our table, and salsa brought in a small carafe. That was something new. If I had to guess, I would say the salsa is either not fresh, or made from canned tomatoes. Either way,... More

The food here is the real deal. The food taste like my Grandma was back in the kitchen cooking. It's located in a shopping strip and is easily overlooked if you aren't looking for it. Make no mistake this is REAL mexican food. The food was so good that my Mom and I actually asked to speak with the kitchen... More

This is a small Mexican restaurant in Bedford, with cliche' decore. You know the kind with the painted benches and Tijuana colors. The chips came out fresh and warm and the salsa was homemade but very mild. I ordered guacamole and it was also homemade and plentiful. Very tasteful. My daughter is a vegetarian and ordered the cheese enchilada, cheese... More

The food is terrific, the service is the best, & the prices are unbeatable! I cannot say enough good things about Azteca. We are local to Bedford. Anytime we are eating out, Azteca is our choice (we frequent 2x/month minimum). We have NEVER had a bad meal & we've sample almost the entire menu. We have NEVER had bad service... More

Mexican food is my "comfort food," so when I'm on vacation, I will usually seek out any decent Mexican restaurants in the area. I much prefer a small establishment like Azteca than going to one of the big commercial chains that claim to be Mexican. Azteca doesn't have a liquor license, but they now allow you to BYOB, if you... More

Who would have thought you could get good mexican in Bedford. All the dishes I have tried have been good. Inexpensive. Quick service. No Bar service.

We live local and were thrilled when this place opened. We love Mexican food but hate to have to run to Altoona to find it. The food is great. I am a fan of the chimichangas! They are too die for. My boyfriend prefers the dinner combination where he gets 6 or 7 different items for less than $10. We... More

Having been born and lived in Texas for many years, I absolutely love Mexican food. I was excited but hesitant when Azteca opened; however I can now say it is my favorite restaurant in town! The food is authentic and delicious and the wait staff is superb. Can't wait until they open their second restaurant near the turnpike, complete with... More
