Review Soul Azteka - Conception Bay South

Jacob Prince
Veggie black bean burrito was delicious, homemade salsa and the side salad were incredible! Great view of the river. Will return!

Authentic Mexican experience, from the music to the decor to the pictures on the wall, you have to be there to enjoy it. They greet you with complimentary nachos with their homemade salsa which was delicious. Portions are just enough to leave the table full not bloated. If you like spicy try the shrimp signature taco, and if you like cheese try the enchiladas. I really liked that you can add a side dish to your tacos and they are quite full dishes. I only wish if they opened longer on Sundays to add a menu for take out on Sunday evenings, I'm sure they will when they find the demand.

Love this restaurant. The best Mexican food in the city, bar none. [Update: they have limited seating available now (January 2019) in the restaurant.] Currently (November 2018) operating as a take-out or delivery place only, nowhere to go in and sit down for a meal. This will change though so check back if you’re looking for an eat-in experience.

One of my friends poi Ted me to this restaurant. Being a fan of tacos and spicy food he said I'd love it. I walked in and looked at all the options on the menu, and was having a hard time deciding on what to go with, when the owner suggested the gringo tacos. He told me they were his take on the fast food variety. I got those to go, along with a side of guacamole and Mexican rice (they come with 1 side already). The tacos were loaded with meat and fresh veggies. The house made guacamole add even more flavour to an already good taco. The Mexican rice was hands down the best I've had here in town. I also took an order of the house spicy salsa home and tried it with some tortilla chips. It had a bit of kick to it but not overwhelming and was very good flavorful. I'm ooking forward to going back again so I can sample some of the other flavours!

Very good Mexican food. Tortillas are the best I’ve ever had and the salsa was fresh made and bright. Service was good. Deserts were ok. The restaurant itself is pretty rough which detracts from the experience. Overall very good!

Excellent, authentic Mexican food. Fresh and loads of flavor. So refreshing to finally have a good Mexican restaurant in St. John's. Cozy atmosphere, very welcoming. Definitely going back again soon!

I've never been to Mexico, but I have had friends from Mexico and visited other Authentic Mexican restaurants in California and Ontario. This has been bar none the best food I've had at a Mexican restaurant. If you're a connoisseur of the chain Subway style "Mexican" restaurants or think nachos are pretty darn ethnic, you're likely not going to enjoy this food. If you like flavours that melt into each other without being drowned in cheese and sour cream then you're in for a treat. This is definitely the best Mexican food you'll find in Newfoundland (trust me, I've tried them all). AND the prices are amazing! The atmosphere is - like some of the best authentic restaurants I've been to - a little "hole-in-the-wall"ish. But it works. From the "tin" cups to the Lucha Libre masks on the wall you feel like you're in a small non-touristy family owned business in Mexico itself. Amazing food. Great prices. What else can you ask for?

Thanks to the owner for the update on why the place was closed. I have not had a chance to try them yet, but I upped my review as they were responsive. Located at the farmers market and a food truck Old post... "I am pretty sure that this place is closed. We went there yesterday because it had such great reviews and there is brown paper on the windows with a big lease sign in the window. Not really sure what happened but sad that we can't try this place. if the owner reads this review and they have moved somewhere, please let me know and I will come visit."

Well-executed, humble, real deal Mexican food. Fresh, well-seasoned, incredible depth of flavor. My new mission in life is to devour the entire menu. Will definitely be back.

We ate here a few weeks ago for my girlfriend's birthday. Not only were the operators incredibly accommodating and friendly with helping me make the night special, but we were absolutely blown away by the quality of the food. This is the most authentic Mexican I have ever had in St. John's. We loved every bite we took, and felt that the amount and quality of the food provided incredibly value. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Soul Azteka to anyone looking to try a new location. If you like Mexican food I assure you that you will not be disappointed. We will be visiting on a regular basis, this place is fantastic!

Food was fantastic! I forgot to ask about lettuce and sour cream, not even sure if they are even a thing in authentic mexican. Its good that we have a place that serves good, hot mexican food!
Carla Crotty
Had lunch at this amazing place today. Everything about it feels like authentic Mexico, from the exquisite food to the traditional decor. Although it was busy, there was no wait. The service was fantastic; it was just the owners doing it all. Cinthia did the serving and managed the cash and front of the place while Mike worked his magic in the kitchen. The food was just absolutely delicious. If you are reading this now, just get up off your butt and go there.

We just enjoyed the Friday family meal! Very nicely prepared for pick-up. Instructions for heating, so easy and tasty. We would recommend this to friends as a great way to enjoy a Friday!
Drew Ward
Had the brisket, pulled pork, beans, and Mac and cheese from the pop up today. Fantastic! Absolutely delicious. And, the smoke ring on that brisket was a thing of beauty. Will be back. Thank you guys, and keep up the great work!

We just went to this restaurant for this first time tonight and it was amazing. Excellent food, very nice Mexican atmosphere and the owners/servers are the sweetest. Would highly recommend enchiladas suiza. A must visit in the city �
Jason Drake
Fantástico!!!! Absolutely lovely. A real gem in the St.John's food scene. Food with authentic taste and like all proper Mexican cuisine... made with care and love (something seriously lacking from many other restaurants here in SJ). On par with some of the best street food I have had in Mexico. Looking forward to the day Soul Azteka is licensed and a cold cerveza can be enjoyed along side all of their tasty dishes! Thank you for the ray of Mexican sunshine on a dreary January St.John's evening ;)

Had this today for my Birthday dinner. It was awesome, you can certainly taste the fresh ingredients and the cod in the taco's are amazing, me and my wife will be back.

Finally got to try this place for the first time last night and we were pleasantly pleased! The food was delicious and authentic and we felt like we were eating at a local place in Mexico! Love love love it!
Abbey Kavanagh
Two Tuesdays in a row! Our first visit we dined in and the staff were lovely but even more importantly, the food was delicious. A++ for the guac! Last night we placed a pretty hefty take-out order which was ready right when we arrived. Got it home, just as tasty as the week before and they got our order perfect! A must eat in St. John's now.
Alex Matheson
Awesome food. Fresh and great quality. So much flavour! One of my new favourite places to eat!
Steven Bastow
Seriously. Tacos and atmosphere is 100% authentic. I lived in Puerto Vallarta for many years and take it from me......this place is the best! You will not be disappointed!
