Reviews for Atexquita Restaurant Mexican Grill & Bar in Newark, DE

Food is always pretty decent. No complaints. Service can be a little slow at times, but I think that's due to the restaurant not... wanting to over staff and having servers sitting around. Read more

26 Aug 2022: solo dinner. Chile Relleno Y enchilada ($12) and pineapple jalapeño margarita ($11). 2 types of enchiladas were... served pepper stuffed and cheese. I liked cheese better. Some fried rice and mashed beans with cheese were served as well.Everything tasted good overall. The margarita was refreshing with a little jalapeño kick. Recommendation: yes. Read more

This is probably one of the most underrated restaurants for authentic Mexican food. The tacos are affordable (3 dollars per... taco) and they also have taco Tuesdays (3 tacos for 5 dollars). The place is clean, and generally not crowded at all(disclaimer: I have only been there for lunch on weekdays). The staff is friendly, and they leave you alone (which I prefer,instead of over-enthusiastic staff that keep coming to check on you). Music is nice, and the art on the walls is veryinteresting as well (see photos). Definitely recommended, if you like low key places that are not loud and serve simple,excellent food! Read more

Overall a pretty good restaurant to grab a bite and enjoy Mexican food in Newark. I?ve been here multiple times and have invited... friends to eat here as well, especially during happy hour (and their margs are amazing). Probably going to visit again sometimesoon! Read more

Gross! We got the burrito and huarache. So nasty. The chicken burrito had chicken bones in it. Thank God I was eating it and not... my 4 year old son. The green sauce on top tasted sour. The rice was dry and not flavorful! The side salad was ewww! Chopped uplettuce with diced yucky tomatoes and cheese-no dressing, not even a squeeze of lime-no flavor! I will not go there again! Alsotheir drinks are probably powdered not natural. The horchata tasted like a powdered drink! The only reason I ate it was becauseI was so hungry and I had an appointment so I couldn?t cook or get anything else. So disappointed! Also, I was placed on hold 3times bc the lady had no idea what curbside pick up was but on their website it says they offer curbside pick up. She had tocall her manager bc she didn?t know how to take my card information. What is this! Oh my gosh! It?s 2022 and it took forever topay on the phone with my credit card! Read more

Soooo good! Queso dip is delicious, rice and beans are also super delicious...and I like the mermaid water drink quite a bit!... They have lots of different salsas and margaritas. We have had the sopes, enchiladas, chimichangas, and the Mexican sopa. Wehave been many many times...in fact, Atexquita is the place we go to celebrate! Read more

The guacamole is the BEST we have ever eaten (my husband is Mexican and agrees). Such great food all around; love their orchata... and flan. you cannot go wrong with any of their entrees. We enjoy that their coke products are served in bottles. Read more

A great Mexican restaurant food in Newark, DE. Service is also friendly, though some days can be slow since there?s only 1... person working in the front. For taco Tuesday, $5 for 3 tacos (pastor, chicken, carne asada, carnitas). Read more
