So glad I tried this hidden gem!!!
Ive always been curious about this place bc it's kind of in an odd location not near any other restaurants on a busy street.
We came on a Tuesday evening. We were the only ones there initially, we were seated immediately and served right away with green salsa red salsa tostito chips and water. The salsas were delicious and definitely tasted homemade!!
We ordered the red posole large, steak tampiqueño which came with rice, beans, avocado, salad, cheese enchilada, and tortillas, and also the taco dinner which comes with 3 tacos (ordered red pork), rice and beans, no drinks just water.
Red Posole $13
Pro:
-pork was super tender and delicious
-the garnish of white cabbage, white onion and limes were fresh
-tortillas looked and tasted handmade! Not sure if they are
Con:
-the broth wasn't as flavorful as I thought it seemed a bit watered down and didn't have a kick to it I did add the red salsa and it was better
Would not order it again though.
Steak Tampiqueño $21
Pros:
-fresh tortillas
-fluffy rice
-fresh avocado slices
-steak was juicy and tender
Cons:
-the cheese they melt onto the steak was a little heavy for me, the texture wasn't great gooey like putty/glue but flavor wise it was fine
-the rice was fluffy but lacked a bit of flavor, it was good but not the best
-the steak was a thick cut so it was difficult to eat in the tortilla like a taco I had to cut into tiny bite size pieces, it's not like your typical skirt steak served in tacos that's thinly sliced, this was half an inch thick piece of steak so I would not order again bc of the thickness. If you don't mind a thick steak then try it, flavor wise it was good.
3 Pork Taco dinner $15
Pros:
-they stuff them very well with meat and garnish like tomatoes, cheese, lettuce
-the red pork was very tender and flavorful!!
-fresh tortillas, probably handmade
No cons for this one, would order this taco dinner again!!😋
My favorite part was the service, the place is very clean, the waitress was quick about clearing tables and wiping them clean. Our specific waitress was super professional and provided excellent service!!!
She anticipated our needs before we even got a chance to ask and she gave us extra napkins, a pitcher of water, checked on us twice to see if we needed anything like more salsa etc. She provided us with small bowls to share the large posole without us having to ask. She was on it with everything!!! Now that's quality service!!! 5/5 stars ⭐
Overall, the food was good just the rice and posole broth lacking some flavor but the salsa made up for it and the service was great! I will be returning to try their burritos, stuffed cheese peppers, and some dessert.
Definitely give this place a try!
Fantastic menu and the most friendly staff you could hope for. Delicious, authentic dishes.
Very happy to have visited today with my friend Jimmy!
We have been coming to Mexico Steak House as a family for years and I have nothing but the best to say! The food is always phenomenal and the environment is comfortable and welcoming. We will continue to come back for many years ❤️
Always good food and great service. The staff are very friendly.
We've been going here for almost my whole life. Great ppl, great food, even better memories. The enchiladas are a must, red or mole.
The best Mole sauce I've ever had! It's the perfect blend between mildly spicy and not too sweet. The staff here are very nice people.
What a lovely little place. I would of never noticed this place but I'm glad I did. I find my new little gem

They really do know how to prepare and cook a steak here. Their carne asada dinner is excellent, I highly recommend it. I was served a Carne Asada portion that was very large. It was thick, tender, moist, and delicious. I had to share with my husband ( it was so much). The Milanesa dinner was great, too. The breaded steak was large and took up the whole plate and then some. It was cut thicker than most places (nice and crispy on the outside, and fork tender on the inside). Both their salsas are excellent. You still get a free sopita while you wait for your food (if you come for lunch during the work week).
The chicken enchiladas in mole poblano are excellent. The chicken tasted fresh. It was moist, tender, and seasoned well. They didn't go overboard with the cheese like a lot of places do. The steak tampiqueña was delicious, I got it medium, and it was cooked to perfection. It's a thick, tender, nice sized steak. Their beans and rice are pretty good too, chilaquiles are pretty good, especially if you like them crispy (they can sometimes go overboard on the cheese, though). They also have good coffee, flan and tres leches cake. The bathroom was roomy, clean, and had a changing table. The service was excellent. The prices have gone up, but they're still very reasonable considering the portion sizes.
I have been eating with family at this restaurant since i was maybe 4 years old- I'm 36 now and the food tastes EXACTLY the same. Delicious, well priced and consistent! The waitresses there are always amazing, they make you feel like family. This is honestly my favorite restaurant, I can never pass up my go-to order of chilaquiles without egg...10 out of 10!
This is long time favorite of Bridgeport for me. The food has stayed consistently authentic after 25+ yrs, even after it burned down and was reopened. The beef stew or bistec a la Mexicana is incredible. Mexico steakhouse is one of the last places to serve free soup (or appetizer of the day) and chips and salsa. And both are excellent. They do simple things very well. The horchata is the best I've ever had. It's not overly milky and sweet,instead it's more like it's intended to be...an agua de arroz. Super clean and crisp/refreshing. Everything is homemade and the owners and cooks have been the same since day 1. Highly recommend this local business.
