★★★☆☆ 3.0 Chris Kallmes · Oct 2025

After 20+ years in Arizona, we've struggled to find good Mexican food on the East coast. Short answer, Folklore was good, but not great. Caveat: chicken enchiladas are my test food. Others seem to have better experiences with different dishes, so we might go back and try something else. The good: lime margarita with Tajin on the rim was delicious and well priced. That almost pushed this review to 4 stars. Chips were hot, crispy, and tatsy. Staff was friendly, and it wasn't busy on a Monday night so we were checked on regularly and lacked nothing. Portion sizes were larger than expected and made for a good value (4 enchiladas with rice and beans included). Presentation looked great. The not so great: salsa was too tomato-saucy.

As a transplant from central Nebraska, I was worried that we wouldn't be able to find Mexican food on par with what we were used to in a town that was 58% Latin origin, and I'm so glad that we stopped in at El Folklore De Mexico. This place reminds me a lot of our favorite sit down spot in Grand Island, with excellent quality food, great drink prices at happy hour, and amazing service. My wife and I shared the Molcajete, and it was more than enough for the two of us plus some leftovers to take home. We'll be back!

This is the best Mexican place I have ever ate at. Hands down. I’ve been to a lot of restaurants and this one takes the cake. Everything was fresh, and so tasty. Customer service was excellent. I encourage anyone to try this place!!!

We got the Birria Tacos and I am amazed! Great portion size and the taste is amazing. I also had a strawberry margarita, so so so delicious! Fair price. Service was awesome, everyone is super friendly and the food came very fast. Highly recommend!

My family and I ate here tonight, have eaten here before, let me tell you, the service and food is always on point. Everything, including the drinks are fresh. The portions are great, most people after munching on the complimentary chips that come with salsa (guacamole is extra but delicious)! Will bring the rest of their food home. I highly recommend going here for great, attentive service, served by very sweet people.
