El Azteco strives to offer you the finest in authentic Mexican food. We use only natural ingredients. Our chiles are carefully selected and shipped from southern New Mexico. Blue Corn comes from the Indian pueblos of northern New Mexico. These fresh ingredients may lead to some seasonal variations. We have been a staple in East Lansing and MSU for 35 years, and touched 5 decades with great food.

Great food My parents have gone here for years and now have taken us kids. We love this place. I have gotten great service when getting/ordering food there has been a couple of times were they have forgotten the tomatos but that’s okay. The experience is nice I like the one in Lansing better not a lot of college kids. They are a great deal, if you want to try real Mexican food like they make in Mexico this is a great place to get that great Mexican homemade taste. If you go here to try there great Mexican food go before 5p... read more

El Az is the Best Mexican Food in Greater Lansing El Azteca has some of the best food of any ethnicity in the greater Lansing area. When ordering, be sure to try their cheese dip, it's to DIE for! The atmosphere at both locations is very authentic, some would claim a little run down, but I always find it to be clean. PROS: The food, the food, the food!!! CONS: A little dated, the buildings could use a little upkeep, esp. Lansing

Authentic Mexican food The best of authentic mexican food. The chips are great, salsa good and margaritas amazing. Flautas are my favorite, but sometimes I get the variety plate, because everything is so very good. Try the cheese dip, it's good. And if you want a huge salad, the toppo salad is enough for 2 atleast. It's a pile. The cooking is very good and very authentic mexican fare! PROS: Everything! CONS: Can add up, watch for specials

Crap service, crap food Not sure when the glowing reviews were last written, but our recent experience there left us leaving in a hurry. Our waitress was a dingbat, took her 4-5 trips to get our food and drink orders, then brought us chips with no salsa. When our food arrived, it was completely incorrect, and contained additional ingredients not even mentioned on the menu. We also had to wait even longer for silverware. The beef filling for the burritos tasted more like breakfast sausage. The only thing we found good about t... read more

Great food! Love the tacos or nachos any day. My true favorites are the Suiza enchiladas and the chicken flautas. And do not forget about the margaritas- can even get them to go right now!

For starters that can make better tacos they were the worst tacos I ever ate my life I don't like Taco Bell and Taco Bell's tacos tasted better than theirs when give me a refund will give me a credit but I didn't want no credit because I'm not satisfied with the food so I suggest if you want tacos but don't go there famous taco is a lot better
