Very positive visit, after a bad experience next door on the previous night! We visited Old Town Mexican Cafe several years ago, and we're excited to see that the food, employees and atmosphere remained superior to neighboring places!!! And again brought some freshly handmade tortillas home!!!

Food was excellent. Home made tortillas made the carnitas top flight. Great service. The wife loved her strawberry margarita.

Seems to be going downhill the last few times we've been there. Poor food quality and service, employees on break sitting behind the partition next to us were loud, rude and using foul language. Time to move on to Cafe Coyote next door.
