Pretty authentic - most authentic so far in the area. Salsas are unique with 3 kinds. Red is spicy, green is spicy and light green mild. May try another dish - I got chicken tacos w beans and rice for $12.

We love Veracruz! They are our 'go to' place for authentic Mexican food. Our kids were in town for Easter weekend so we ordered from Veracruz on Saturday eve. So yummy and everyone was very pleased.

This is high quality Mexican food. The only thing I will admit is that the prices match the quality of the food, but you will not be disappointed. The team was very polite and our food was at our table essentially before we sat down. Inside the restaurant was a casual dining experience. I highly recommend coming here for your next meal.

The best Mexican place in town HANDS DOWN. Fast, delicious, variety. You can't ask for much more. This is my go to place in Blono for authentic Mexican food. Cozy and tucked away in whatever strip that is on the corner of Eastland Dr and N Prospect, this place does it all well and does it QUICK.

Nothing more I could say about Veracruz than amazing. The tacos are outstanding, the service is amazing, and the people who run it are also great. I have ate at other Mexican places in town, but this is one of my top favorites. As other reviewers stated, sometimes the wait can be long whenever it gets busy or during peak hours. As another reviewer mentioned, I would go right when they open to avoid that wait time if at all possible. I ordered the steak taco with only cheese on it. The corn shell tasted fresh, the steak hot, and the cheese just melting on it. The corn shell itself also was very hot and at an acceptable temp. This is my go to order when I hit up Veracruz, but you can do whatever you fancy. I order my food to-go like many others do here, and I would gladly suggest this fine restaurant to people who enjoy Mexican food and enjoy great service. This is a hot spot in town for Mexican food, especially their tacos. I would gladly give it my full amount of stars!

Had lunch here yesterday with my son. We walked in and it was packed. (Always a good sign) We both ordered burritos. I got the large steak burrito w cheese. He got the large chicken burrito. Our meal was tasty and enjoyable. The employees were all very nice. We'll be back for more.

Came here during my lunch. There was quite a line to this spot but it flowed pretty quickly. I ordered the taco combo with carne asada, no onions, with cheese and sour cream. It came with rice and beans and three salsas to choose from. I figured they'd add cheese and sour cream to the side and require me to add it but no, they added them to the taco so everything was perfectly melted and added in. The meat was amazing and well cooked. Squeezed some lime in and added salsa and it was even more delicious and very filling. Probably some of the best tacos I've had and everything was quick. Also had horchata and it was great. I do prefer it less sweet but it didn't bother me. Staff is friendly as well. I will be back!

The salsa is fresh, the corn tortillas are wonderful, the rice had green beans, (mock nopaleta?), and was moist and fluffy! The counter woman was friendly and was sure to ask each customer if they wanted salsa. Of the three tacos, the chicken was my favorite, but I'm a sucker for that smoky chipotle flavor. Each taco had two corn tortillas and was nicely filled and lime wedge was on on the side. Just look at my pic; it says it all! I came in starving, craving "real" tacos because I just moved here from Texas and hadn't had my weekly taco quota. This hit the spot! Everything tasted just like Home! Now that I know Veracruz is here, my transition to living in the mid-west will be a little easier.
