" I wasn't expecting to find such a gem in Altoona! The moment I walked in, the vibrant colors and decor charged the atmosphere with fun. I opted for the carne asada tacos, which were very well seasoned. The best part was definitely the table-side guacamole; it wasn't just fresh but also full of flavor. Service was a little slow that evening, but it was packed, so that's understandable. I look forward to returning and trying more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I enjoyed a lovely meal at Plaza Azteca earlier. The environment was delightful and exactly what you want for a casual dining experience. The tacos we ordered were pretty decent; however, I think they could be bolder in flavors. The guacamole was excellent, and I loved the option of having it prepared at our table. Overall, it was a fine experience, and we're curious to try it again with more menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful dinner here last night. The chips and salsa were a perfect start, and the table-side guacamole was a refreshing touch. The steak tacos I ordered were nice, but I found them a bit oily for my taste. The customer service was friendly and the server attentive, making sure our dining experience was pleasant. I will return for the margaritas for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a fantastic place! Plaza Azteca offers great ambiance. They have a wonderful selection of authentic dishes. Made table-side guacamole was definitely the highlight of the meal! I tried the carne asada, and it was cooked perfectly. Our server was cheerful and provided great recommendations. Prices are reasonable for the quality. I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is fantastic, but they need a bit of work on their service. My friends and I had to wait a while for a table and then for our order to be taken. Still, I must highlight that the guacamole was freshly made at our table and just exquisite. The flavors were vibrant, and I will recommend the nachos to anyone looking for a fun snack there. I think with a bit of effort on the service, this place could be amazing! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful evening! If you're on the hunt for authentic Mexican cuisine, you must visit Plaza Azteca. I went there last weekend with friends, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The tacos al pastor were bursting with flavor, and the horchata was refreshing. The ambiance made it feel like a mini getaway. Our server was attentive and helped us with recommendations. I will definitely be back to try their specialty cocktails next! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a craving for Mexican food, and I'm glad I chose Plaza Azteca! The atmosphere hits you right away with its colorful decor. I ordered the carne asada, and it was well-cooked and flavorful, but the sides could have used a bit more seasoning. The service was lovely, with our server checking in regularly. I would return, maybe to try the birria next time! " (*Curated Review*)
