Review: Los Mariachis Mexican Restaurant, Phoenixville, PA

In addition to supplying our favorite recipes, I want to share some information on some FABULOUS restaurants or stores that are worth visiting. I am no food critic but I know what I love, so I hope you find this information useful.

First up - Los Mariachis Mexican Restaurant


Los Mariachis
201 Gay Street
Phoenixville, PA

Grade: A

When my hubby and I lived in Phoenixville, we were lucky enough to have lived about a half a block from this restaurant so we ordered from them often (but not often enough, lol). When we first went there the restaurant was quite tiny so we only ate there once. With the renovation, they now have the opportunity to have more dine-in customers.

A few things we liked about this restaurant was the fresh food, good portions, decent prices and the service. Family owned and operated, the husband and wife team were very friendly and accomodating. We felt welcomed at any time of the day or night. 

The quality of the food was great and the vegetable toppings (tomatoes, lettuce, etc) were very fresh no matter when we ordered. There really is nothing like fresh toppings! With the platters comes the rice and the to-die-for refried beans. The rice is good but not the most exciting part of the platter. The refried beans are a hit! They are topped with grated parmesan cheese. OMG! I have never had this combination before but it really is a wonderful mix for your taste buds. If you choose to dine in, you get the opportunity of having their homemade tortilla chips as a starter. These were also muy delicioso.

Most of their dishes are the Tex-Mex style that us Americans have grown accustomed to. They do however, offer authentic Mexican dishes as well. No matter what you choose, you will be super satisfied. Oh and be sure to pair your dish up with one of the Spanish sodas they sell!

My favorite dish(es):
Tex-Mex Chicken Tacos Platter
Tex-Mex Beef Chalupas Platter
Burrito

Hubby's favorite:
Tex-Mex Chicken Enchiladas Platter

So if you are in the Chester County area, take a drive to the 'Ville and check this place out. It's only a short few blocks away from the downtown Phoenixville area.
