Amigo’s Mexican Grill: Authentic Mexican Cuisine in Birmingham

I came and got the steak fajitas. Absolutely amazing! They did an awesome job with the steak and didn't overcook it like some places. I am very happy and will definitely recommend and come back! Amazing job!

The food was fresh and hot. The lettuce was amazingly crisp. And the waiter was extremely nice!

I recently visited Amigo’s Mexican Grill with a large group for a special event, and while there were some highlights to our experience, it left me with mixed feelings overall. First, I want to commend the friendly and welcoming staff—they were attentive despite how packed the restaurant was. The servers handled our group with professionalism and warmth, which made a big difference considering how busy the place was during our visit. The atmosphere was lively and traditional, with colorful décor and upbeat music that captured the spirit of a classic Mexican eatery. However, the wait for our food was noticeably long. With such a large crowd that day, I completely understand the delay, but it did stretch our patience a bit. Unfortunately, when the food did arrive, I found it bland and lacking flavor—not at all what I was hoping for, especially as someone who truly enjoys Mexican cuisine and frequently dines at various Mexican spots around town. Without adding hot sauce, the dishes had little to no seasoning, which was disappointing. That said, dining experiences can vary, and in fairness, my daughter absolutely loved her meal and couldn’t stop talking about how good it was. So while it didn’t hit the mark for me, it clearly pleased others in our party. In the end, if it weren’t for the event we were attending, I probably wouldn’t have chosen Amigo’s. And based on this experience, I don’t see myself returning. Still, I always believe everyone’s palate is different, so I’d say give it a try and form your own opinion—you might just have a better experience than I did.

Everything we got here was pretty good. Staff was friendly and the place was pretty busy. There was minimal wait for food and plenty of seating. Huge menu with all types of choices. We'd visit again if in the area.

Truly a hidden gem, I can't believe I've lived over here for so long and haven't been in until tonight! The restaurant is clean, the drinks are cold and delicious, and it's some of the best Mexican food I've had in this city! I was also blown away by how quick the service is! Excellent staff all around, very kind and knowledgeable. Thanks for everything!!

Wow, so my daughter and I tried Amigos for the first time and according to their reviews it did not disappoint at all. Service was great from the host and server. The restaurant was very clean and organized and very welcoming. We got the lunch special on Sunday between 11-3 . I had the #1 which came with too much food as you can see in the photo. It had 1 of each taco, chalupa, enchilada and a burrito. It was all delicious the flavor was immense and the meat was juicy. My kid had a taco salad and it was great as well. We’d for sure will return.

The food was delicious! There were three places we went to and passed up bc there was an over 55mon wait for Mexican restaurants. We googled ones near us and this popped up. There were 2 families ahead of us but no wait. The food was fast and the place is very clean. The people were always very friendly. 10/10

Found this quiet place tucked away in the corner of a shopping center while traveling. Overall, the food was good, the salsa was just right, and the chips were decent. I ordered the shrimp chili rellenos. The flavor was good, but the pepper was a little undercooked. The shrimp, on the other hand, were just right. I'd definitely return to try it again. The atmosphere and beer were great.
