About this business

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.

First time on the patio. Loved it. I refuse to tell anyone how good it is, because when I go back, I want to be able to get a seat! It’s great! A person named Lamar (spelling?) was a large contributor to the experience.

It's a cute place. Not a cookie cutter Mexican restaurant. The food is great. Super spicy Sala. They offer a mild one too. The mine doesn't over whelm you. The pitcher of margaritas was delicious and so was my food. I love this place!

This was my first visit to El Azteco and it will be my last. The food was awful. The salsa, the beans, the rice and their "cheese sauce" all of it horrible.
