Margaritas are a steal Monday through Friday, and they're seriously delicious! The menu is packed with great options, and I can't get enough of the fajita plate with shrimp, steak, and chicken. The service was super friendly, and even though the decor could use a little TLC, the food definitely steals the show!

This is the worst restaurant I have ever ate at Our waitress rushed us to a table and insisted on taking our order when the rest of our party wasn't there We were overcharged for our drinks. The servings were small for the price. Not a place we will go to again

Love Amigos! It's my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Cedar Valley. Every time our food has been wonderful. Eating in or taking out. Highly recommend!

Our second trip to Amigos was just as fulfilling as our first.....3 of us had full meals (plenty of leftovers!) & a pitcher of Gold Margaritas for under $60! You are our new "go to" place I like knowing staff & management are HAPPY to see clientele!

We have always enjoyed Amigos but have noticed the service getting worse and worse. Oscar has been noticeably absent. Last night we ordered before a table of 8 and they were finished eating before we could even flag down somebody to check on our order of 7 tacos. The meal still did not come so we put down $5 to cover the chips and water and walked out.

Amigo's is by FAR the best Mexican restaurant in Waterloo/Cedar Falls area. We just moved to the area and of course had to try all the Mexican restaurants to find our favorite one. Amigos won hands down. Their food is excellent, the service is outstanding and the atmosphere is charming. I
