Los Amigos Homemade Style - Pontiac

Wow. I love this place. I?ve been to countless authentic Mexican restaurants in Michigan and beyond. I?ve tried all of the ones in Pontiac and Mexicantown. Los Amigos is fantastic. Their carnitas tacos- a sure way of judging the food- have been on point each time Ive gone. Delicious, slow cooked pork, and they fill the box to the brim with grilled poblano peppers, onions and fresh radishes as well without you even asking. Their beans are also fantastic- something a lot of

Best tacos around! I'm sure everything else is just as high quality. Awesome, friendly service too. Someone mentioned they should offer chips and salsa they did when I went last week! Great little restaurant.

Their food is so good, especially their tacos and street corn.

Good food I guess but they are quick to hang up in your face without any explanation everytime! You are better off going in and ordering.

I was in the mood for Mexican food, and wanted to try some place new. This place popped up and I decided to give it a try.Surprisingly, it's in a gas station? I was sort of hesitant about dining here, but the place is a okay. There's obviously limited parking and seating here, so FYI it's not good for groups. Maybe a party of 4, tops.I reviewed the menu and kind of scoped the place out when I was inside. There's a wall and door that separate the restaurant portion from the station itself, so that's good. Some of the tables were dirty and looked like they were in need of being cleared, so it made a tight situation even tighter because it meant I had to sit right smack dab in the middle since there was only 2 other places to sit.My server was nice and answered a lot of my questions. The menu's decent but it's mostly dinner entree's here. I went with the 2 tacos that came with rice and beans since I was kind of hungry. Sadly, they don't have barbacoa, just ground beef and steak, in regards to meat selection for tacos. There's also pork and chicken, but since I don't eat pork and didn't feel like chicken, that kind of narrowed down my options to what i was going to get.As for drinks, they also don't have any fountain pop here at all, nor do they serve glasses of water. You have to purchase bottled water or no water at all. I think it's a $1 a bottle. They have can's of coke and some Mexican pop, and that's kind of it.I docked a star for the limited drink options because it was kind of a bummer. Plus, since seating was limited and the place wasn't packed, the tables could have been cleared sooner than later.As for the food, I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I mean, it wasn't life changing but definitely good and the beans were awesome. The rice was good, and I mixed it with the beans, so that was tasty. Tacos were very yummy and over all, it was worth visiting here.Regardless of the tables that needed to be cleared, I wish they would at least have glasses (or Styrofoam cups) where you could at least get refillable ice water or something. Maybe they don't have the space, I'm not sure, but that's kind of a thing for me.Overall, a decent quick lunch spot or place to carry out from.
