Over all it was a pleasant experience for me and my spouse. We had stayed at a nearby hotel and we were looking for a "good" restaurant that serves breakfast early. Luckily we saw Poblanos Grill open at 7 a.m. Nevertheless, we were "not" disappointed. I ordered the migas and requested to make them "La Mexicana style and potatoes the same way." This means they add chopped tomatoes, onion & jalapeños together with the egg and strips of the toasted tortillas while cooking on the grill or pan. The salsa ranchera I added to my dish always elevates the experience to a 5 star review for this dish. My wife ordered the veggie omelette with the mixed fruit cup. The omelette she said was delicious and cooked perfectly. I ordered 3 barbacoa tacos with refried beans, cilantro and onion on corn tortillas to go and it was very good. I added an extra order of their green avocado habanero or poblano salsa mixed with queso fresco as well as the red chipotle chip salsa that is served warm to go since both are very good and not very spicy. I'm eager to try the tortilla soup, sea food soup and the jumbo shrimp cocktail in their signature poblano sauce that Nicole recommended. What makes this place so special is that it is still a family owned business that has followed the mainstream ideas on their menu that is inspired by some of the best traditional Mexican cuisine. Adding to their success was the successful efforts to renovate and modernize the interior of their restaurant that keep loyal happy customers coming back for a relaxed atmosphere, more good food and fun by introducing an occasional live band and karaoke experience.

This was my fourth time eating here. Right before dinner time, not too busy or crowded, between 6 and 730 pm. Food is good, I ordered the Poblano chicken, u think- sorry im not sure the name, but was breaded chicken breast that comes with some cheese sauce, I hold the sauce, personally I m not a fan of melted cheese, rice was good, charro beans were delish, salad was fresh and crispy, ask for dressing otherwise it will be plain. Chips and sauces (red and smoked green) were very good. Loved the texture and flavor of the green . Also, there is a bar section that gets full pretty quick, haven't tried yet, here more to come!!! Beautiful peers I Highly recommend this place.

Had breakfast here today and really enjoyed the experience. The restaurant itself is very clean and inviting, and the service was excellent—super friendly staff who made us feel like regulars right away. The food was good overall. Breakfast is always a tough meal to really stand out, but everything was fresh and well-prepared. The salsa was especially great—obviously fresh and full of flavor. My breakfast burrito was jam-packed with ingredients and very tasty. I’d absolutely come back, and I have a feeling their dinner menu is probably even better. Definitely worth a visit!

Pretty good spot for some halal Mexican dining. The restaurant is like a sports bar but cozy enough for family dining. The service is friendly and attentive enough. Tried a number of items including the beef fajita burrito (which was excellent especially with the white sauce on the top), the ground beef enchiladas which were pretty good as well and the chicken fajitas which unfortunately weren't as flavourful. We were also given chips and dips as starters which was a great way to start. The prices are generally reasonable. Worth a visit if you are craving some halal Mexican food.

Our first time trying this restaurant, amazing experience, we were helped by Jasmine and she was extremely helpful and patient in taking our order. We had the Carne Asada, Pechuga Pablano, and Garlis Shrimp. The Carne Asada was very tender and juicy with so much flavor even the grilled veggies were delicious. The Pechuga Pablano was a fantastic dish it was lightly battered so not to heavy and the Pablano Sauce was amazing (I could take a bit more heat but not necessary) The Garlic Shrimp were so moist and juicy and the side of potatoes were soft and very garlicly flavored. Overall 10/10 we are saving this to come back again. Highly recommend coming here.
