Mazatlan Mexican Restaurant - Mankato, MN Review

If you love fresh salsa and warm tostada chips, are budget conscious and want good food and plenty of it for your money, then visit Mazatlan in Mankato, MN.   They offer authentic mexican food served HOT. 

They have a large menu with a good selection, including beverages.  They offer both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and varying brands; margaritas and beer, pop and lemonade.  They offer a kid's menu, and they have a dessert menu with the usual flan, fried ice cream, sopapilla's, etc.  The service is better than average, the prices are better than I've found at many other mexican restaurants, and the food is REALLY good.

The chicken nachos (with extra cheese), one of the combo specials, and the chicken fajita quesadilla with rice and beans on the side, and the flan are all favorites with our family, AFTER we've demolished a full basket of warm chips and fresh salsa (which they bring you plenty of, plus refills if needed).  

Mazatlan is great for parties of 2 or much larger parties for birthdays and bridal showers, graduation, etc.  They have many booths and tables inside, and also have an outdoor patio for those that like dining outside during temperate seasons. 

Tullamore St. runs right along Madison, the main strip in Mankato, and it is located next to Godfather's Pizza, so it's easy to find while out shopping.  If you are a local, check the Smart Shopper, a glossy-type magazine filled with specials and coupons.  There are generally a few coupons in there for Mazatlan, and they help lower an already low-cost meal.
