El Azteca

El Azteca is on State Street in a complex of what looks like a remodeled vintage house. If you need a special entrance, the restaurant has a wooden ramp to enter, but it is difficult to navigate once you are inside due to the small room organization. The food is Sonora style, which is a smoother-less spicy hot---style. The rooms offer an intimate dining setting and are decorated nicely. I love the sweet-type sauce that is served on the enchiladas. Parking is easy and is offered on the side and in the rear of the restaurant. more

One of Fort Wayne's living legends. This place offers a variety of authentic mexican cuisine. In the breeze way as you enter the main area of the restaurant you are greeted by this huge, never full church bench that allows you to wait until your table is ready. El Azteca offers you booths as well as tables for larger parties and gives you warm chips and tomitillo and red pepper salsa (the hot kind not the sweet). Mix the two for an amazing flavor combination, more green for not so hot and red for the firey hot. The cheese and onion enchaladas are the best in town. Trust me, I have tried them about everywhere! They have a full bar and offer pepsi products as well as amazing iced tea. On your way out grab a few black licorish taffies at the hostess station for free or grab a pound for $3! The cost of the food is very fair and you have enough to go see a movie or play mini golf afterward. more
