I, my wife and family love this place! The food, atmosphere (perfect), cleanliness and service we always get there is great (most of the time we have JOSE as our waiter ask for him!). As others noted, their Cadillac Margaritas are phenomenal (my favorite) and they dont short you on the amount of liquor nor are they the corn-syrupy, sweet and sour garbage you get elsewhere. We get chicken nachos, guacamole or queso fundido w/ chorizo for an appetizer and carne asada/ tampiquena and chicken fajitas burrito for our dinner. Others have had enchiladas and fajitas with us and have equally enjoyed it. With other options within a few miles of this restaurant, I highly recommend it over others. Dont let the strip mall location sway you. I say that because for weeks I wouldnt go for the first time but my wife insisted. Now...nearly 4 years later its a staple we eat at 2-3 times a month! For our young girls they enjoy the chicken fingers and mini corn dogs. Weve hosted a few family gatherings here over the years as well. Lastly, new ownership has spurred life into this place the last 6 months and it is busier than before. Whats great is that he has maintained the quality of food, drinks, cleanliness, atmosphere and friendly staff weve grown to expect and he is "hands on" monitoring and briefly checking in with guests, bringing food to tables, clearing tables if necessary and friendly. Thanks!

You guys!! Okay, been here a handful of times so my review is based upon multiple visits (well, maybe 10 - whos counting?). Every time we walk in we are greeted with a smile and with courtesy. And get this.... They remember us! Isnt it so strange to frequent a family-owned restaurant and to be treated like theyve never seen you before? (yeah, it happened to us). BIZARRE! But, not at Delicia! The decor is beautiful. We admire the whole-wall mural every visit. Let me get to the good part. The FOOD! The chips and salsa are great. The chips are light, airy and crunchy - the salsa has a great fresh flavor. Like burritos? Get one. Like Tacos? Get the #5 combo. Like carne asada. Dont walk, RUN to order it. Going with a group? Highly recommend the Parillada Delicia con Lagostinos. A delicious mix of marinated skirt steak, fresh water large shrimp, grilled shrimp, large rib tips, chorizo, pork chop, cactus, grilled green onions and jalapeños, and oaxaca cheese served in a hot pot so it stays warm throughout your dining experience. Good down to the broth. So, so good! Finish it all off with an ice cream chimi! You will not be disappointed.

Excellent! Our favorite Mexican restaurant. They have the best Cadillac margaritas. Everything weve eaten here has been great although I highly recommend the Carne Tampiquena which is our favorite. The owner is very friendly and engaged in running the business and love the great service by the staff especially Jose. We have been eating here for years (2-4 times a month) and weve NEVER had a bad meal/experience. Weve taken our 4 kids, friends, extended family and celebrated many birthdays here all of which have been consistently great. On a side note, we drove by it for a few months before I got my husband to go and its been his favorite place ever since! Dont hesitate to give it a try. Lastly, the interior is very well maintained and clean.

Excellent food in an unassuming location. We spent a week in Mexico this past November and never experienced the real taste and flavor of Mexican dining as we did at Delicia. The Chile Relleno was amazing! After eating here we met some friends out for dinner and I ordered the Chile Relleno with the expectation of getting what I had received at Delicia...terribly disappointed. Not even close to the quality and flavor at Delicia. Both staff members we encountered were extremely friendly and added to the overall great experience. AND the have a kids menu that is actually accommodating to kids that are not adventurous in eating; with cheese burger, hot dog, and chicken fingers as options. Will definitely be going back.

This place is fantastic. I walked in with my boyfriend and they said the kitchen closed in 20 minutes but took us anyway and were super friendly even though we were "those people" coming in right before closing . They gave us fresh hot tortilla chips and ridiculously good salsa. We ordered the loaded steak nachos and each chip was individually topped with steak beans and melted cheese so it was much easier to eat. My shrimp tacos were so fresh and flavorful. And of course the fried ice cream was heaven. Will go again (and again)

My wife and I make a point to go to Delicias every Friday night to catch up with each other. We have been coming to here for well over the past 2 years. We know most of the front line staff very well now and every week the food has been consistently very good. We have recommended this to several families that also say it is very authentic. Our children go there now on their own with their friends and hopefully started their own tradition. Hope to be able to come here for years to come. Great experience. Great people. Try it out.

Took a chance this evening on Delicia after reading all of the nice reviews. I must tell you.... it was EXCELLENT! Friendly management, great service, and some really terrific food. Queso with chorizo appetizer was great and then we ordered some huge dinner for 2 that was truly delicious. Shrimp, Steak, Pork Chops, Short Ribs, Chicken, Chorizo, and veggies. OUT OF THIS WORLD! And very reasonably priced. Not only will we go back but this is an instant new favorite well be frequenting often. Thanks Delicia for the amazing meal!

Absolute delight, went there for dinner with the fam and everyone loved the food, decor, and ambience. I have been coming to delicia sometime now but finally got the family together over thanksgiving break. i ordered the fajitas and they were absolutely phenominal. Their chips and salsa are really good as well. Delicia by far exceeds all of our expectations and they have always been very accomadating to all our needs. Give them a try you will fall in love as well.

My family and I had been to Delicia about two months back based on a friends recommendation. The owner was very welcoming and he made us comfortable since it was our first time there. The service was commendable.The food was absolutely wonderful. We had a great time there. A variety of options for all vegetarians out there, too. A great place to have good Mexican food !! Strongly recommend it !

Delicia means delicious absolutely. Went there for the first time and was blown away by the service, food and cleanliness of this place. The chips are homemade and very tasty. I ordered the fajitas combo and it was amazing. Their Cadillac margarita was outstanding. I really love this place and am glad to have found my spot for Mexican cuisine.
