San Miguel Mexican Grill - Syracuse

They were great and found us a spot to eat for a larger party, which I definitely appreciate.However, the food was so basic, I couldn 't even finish it. I got the loco Jardin (veggie salad), that used the word hearty in the description and said it included everything non-meat in the kitchen.Well, I basically got a plate of shredded iceberg lettuce, sour cream, salsa and cut up bell peppers. Not even rice or beans. I was so disappointed. It 's currently in our fridge right now, hoping my husband can find something to do with it today.

The chips and salsa that they deliver to your table when you arrive are amazing. Salsa made fresh everyday and is delicious. We have dined there over a half a dozen times and every meal has been stellar. Fajitas with more shrimp than you can imagine, quesadillas to die for, enchiladas big enough to share! Food is plentiful and delicious. A great place to take out of town family and friends!

San Miguel Mexican Bar Grill was great! Was there on a Friday night with a party of 4 and we nabbed a reservation for 615pm. That may not have been completely necessary but it was busy and it never hurts to have one.The location of the restaurant may be tricky if you aren't familiar with Baldwinsville. There is a fairly spacious lot in the middle of The Bville diner, the dollar general and San Miguel for reference. And San Miguel itself from the parking lot goes down a ramp or stairs to the entrance of the restaurant.The restaurant itself stays true to the form of all the iterations that came before it, a good sized space with ample seating and in warmer weather there is some seating outside by the river. The booth we sat at had an unfortunate feature of being right under the heating and air conditioning and we were going from hot to cold depending on the heat going on and off. If you enter and go left and straight back to the corner, you may want to avoid that table until that can be adjusted.Most importantly the food and service were both incredible! Our server was fantastic and she took great care of us during a busy evening there. All the food was delicious and there were happy tummies all around. The jalapeno poppers were some of the best I've ever had. The main courses everyone either finished every bite or made sure to take the rest home. We all ordered our own dessert and again 4 happy sets of taste buds. If you can't tell what I'm getting at, it's that you won't be disappointed with whatever you get. Best Mexican ever, that's for you to decide, absolutely delicious, it definitely was.I highly recommend San Miguel and when you go, I of course, hope you enjoy!!

Welp, what once was a must try (although it's been several years) after not having gone back I decided to see if anything has changed... and yes, things have. Unfortunately they've gotten worse. How does a Mexican restaurant run out of beans? Now staffed by seemingly all white people, the quality of food has gone down and prices are ridiculously high. The 7+ queso is a 2oz cup... and the queso is obviously watered down. With the 40+ double order of fajitas I got 2 container of Let, Toma, Ches, sour crm, guac, that had about a spoonful of each on a bed of wet browning lettuce that was probably prepared 2+ days prior, an extra side of sour cream was like 4-5 overall the 50 double order of chicken peppers and onions was decent amount, impossible to figure out was how the hell you serve it with the 4 (6in) tortillas! 4TOTAL!... they were straight off the grocery store shelf... to say I felt like I wasted my money goes without saying. This place (years ago) was good, now they obviously know the end is coming and considering what their serving, and charging for it shows a sad attempt to basically squeeze every cent out of every fool who walks in the doors. Because why not? Obviously things have changed and when the only thing you care about is making sure your card reader is performing its job, closing down is probably a recurring dream. This place is ripping people off, you can only fake it for so long.

Big portions at reasonable prices!The food was fantastic!Can't wait to go back again, after we finish eating our to go boxes!
