Old Mexico - Livonia

I ordered a steak burrito, and it was just average. The portion of meat was generous and reminiscent of ropa vieja, which was fine, but there wasn't much else in the burrito besides cheese. There was a lot of cheese, but the overall flavor felt somewhat bland. I wasn't really a fan of the rice either, so I added some salsa to give it a kick. The beans were okay, nothing memorable. Overall, the portion was sizable, but I think I’ll opt for something different next time. A few months ago, we tried this place, and everyone loved the flautas; I also remember enjoying my tacos and jalapeño poppers. Perhaps we just happened to visit on an off day today, but this experience wasn't up to par.

My friend and I stopped by for lunch and discovered some reasonably priced meal options. The restaurant is taking precautions by enforcing social distancing, requiring masks, and limiting seating. We both opted for the lunch combo, which included a taco, burrito, and rice for under $6. The taco had a wonderfully crispy shell that I loved, and the shredded beef in the burrito was tender and flavorful. I also enjoyed the rice. However, we both found the salsa quite bland—despite its chunky appearance. We requested some hot salsa, but it wasn't any better. The chips were fresh and crunchy, but they definitely needed a tastier salsa to enhance the experience! We were the only customers at the time since we arrived around 11 am. I would consider returning with friends, but I wouldn’t make a special trip for it.

I've been visiting this restaurant for many years, and I have no complaints. The staff are always friendly, the prices are amazing, and the food is consistently excellent. It's definitely worth a visit!

Man... what a bummer. We lived in Redford about 15 years ago and this was a go to place for us. I recall the hard tacos as being some of the best around. We were close by for a swim meet and turns out there were like 6 heats of the mile, which runs about 20 minutes a heat so we had some time to grab a bite. For old times sake we decided to hit Old Mexico. Sadly memories are far fonder than reality. The place was pretty full and there were only a couple of servers and most of our interaction with our server was after waiting patiently for him to come over before finally waving him down. The margarita was strong I am not going to complain but the chips and salsa were a bummer. The salsa tasted like it came from a jar. I mean I guess the chips didn't suck but they are the delivery system for the crappy salsa. The food was not great. Certainly didn't come close to the memory of it. I order chicken fajita's and I didn't eat much because they just weren't good. My husband got the tacos and again it did not meet the memory. I recall this place being a family run, authentic Mexican restaurant. It is no longer that. I wish I had preserved the fond memory and skipped it for 2 hours of kids swimming the mile.

Not real authentic Mexican food very bland. Gave me food poisoning food was bland canned taste definitely could tell. They need to close good riddance
