Our first time at Old Mexico in a rather vacant Century III Mall. A good initial sign was that the restaurant had a good amount of diners. The clientele however was mostly older couples and families, so not such a good sign. Ha.
And yes we fit into that demographic.
We were served a complimentary basket of warmed tortilla chips with 2 very small bowls of salsa, one spicy, one mild. The chips and the spicy salsa were very good. No free refills on the chips and salsa.
I ordered chicken fajitas which came on a sizzling hot cast iron plate. Hubby ordered chicken quesadillas. The servings were very generous. My fajitas were very good. Hubby's quesadillas were also good. But the entree didn't look as impressive as the sizzling fajitas. Mainly the quesadillas were cut into triangles and arranged around a scoop of sour cream and chopped lettuce and tomatoes.
The furnishings were a bit run down and sticky. At least my chair back was sticky. The sun came through the window showing greasy rag smears on the wall. The upholstery on the booth seats was torn. Neither of us checked out the rest rooms.
Overall, we might return to give it a second chance. But we would probably not take guests.
I'm giving 3 stars - if you are hungry for Mexican food you will leave with a full belly.
