Los Tres Amigos

Always delicious! The service was super friendly and accommodating as we took our sweet time during a busy lunch Saturday. They were prompt with drinks, had good suggestions for food, and the food itself was excellent!
We decided to go with the molcajete to split between two of us. It was a decent sized bowl, filled with chicken, steak, chorrizo, cactus, and cheese. Spicy, for sure, but delicious. The meat was well-​seasoned but slightly overcooked and left just a little to be desired. There was a huge chunk of cactus that my fiancé said was tasty, although I don’t care for it in general. We asked for corn tortillas but were only given flour tortillas, despite asking again for corn. Oh well. It came with a side of beans and rice, with some sprinkled lettuce and tomato underneath the molcajete bowl, which I would have desired some extra.
All in all, it paired nicely with our peach margaritas and the never-​ending chips and salsa. You will probably catch me here again soon…

I’ve been to almost all of the Los Tres locations in the Lansing/​Jackson area and every single one is the same: great food that comes out fast with VERY friendly service. I love this place.

I ordered the Burrito Ranchero with carnitas and it was delicious — warm, gooey comfort food on a slightly chilly (albeit warm for the season) day.

Fajita chicken was slow cooked and tasted great. The hot salsa was good spicy with no sour taste.

This could been a good meal except they couldn’t get it off the grill so as not to burn it. There’s no excuse for burning chicken or vegetables on the grill. The The atmosphere was dead nonexistent in the Décor was tired.

This place was ok. I got the verde burrito and it was pretty small and didn’t have a lot of verde sauce … Got my one year old the quesadilla and cheese enchilada off the kids menu and it was pretty lack luster. I would go back but I am still looking for a Mexican place in Lansing that I can really «sing» about:-(

We wanted to eat and drink on a patio. That was our goal. We stopped at two other restaurants before settling on «mediocre Mexican» as my sister described it. To say the least, I wasn’t expecting too much when I sat down. But I was sitting in the sun and we ordered a pitcher of margaritas, so life was pretty darn good.
I got the chimichanga, as I often do. When it is the option, I go for it. But I was warned ahead of time by my sister that their ground beef was ‘tasteless’, so I went for chicken. It was pretty good. Mediocre Mexican is the perfect way to describe it. The drinks are great, the food is meh. But it had an outdoor patio and it was the first day of my vacation, and the first of three patios I wound up sitting on that evening, so it was magical.

A great lunch spot. Very fast service and tasty aunthentic mexican food.

I pass this place and it’s always packed! Very little down time but in suburban America a crowd doesn’t always signify good food.
I’m a mild fan of restaurant Mexican or texmex. I prefer my own or real foods of indigenous cultures. None the less I stopped by after a long day.
The margaritas, which I typically don’t like because they can be too salty or too sweet/​syrupy were GREAT! Nice balanced and well made drink. They use mixes and syrups but someone knows what they are doing.
The menu is extensive, almost intimidating for me. There are vegetarian options and everything is customizable. There were fish and seafood options as well. My special enchilada was in a cheese sauce served with rice and other fixins. The rice left a lot to be desired but it was ok. The cheese sauce it really good but I had to limit due to lactose issues. The salsa’s were pretty good too. I was expecting a chunky canned salsa but no. I believe they make their own salsas, mild and hot.
I like their hot sauce selections too, real heat.
I may not be back for a while but I’ll be back. This place is cool with me.
Oh and they have a bar, so yeah I’ll be back.

Pretty good authentic Mexican food with a huge menu. Large bar in front and a really cool fountain when you walk in. All the seats and tables are hand carved and painted, imported from Mexico. Very neat experience.

So wanted to get some Mexican
But being new to lansing didn’t know of any taquerias so went here
When ordering we got it to go
My gf ordered two tacos he asked crunchy or soft tacos
She got crunchy
I order a combo plate which had a taco in it
He didn’t asked me which kind I wanted
We get home and I go to eat the taco let me say the taco shell is like a pre made taco shell from the store
Mine was soggy and falling apart
Which made it uhm kinda uneatable
Prices are way over priced
So will not be going back

The margarita pitchers here are awesome! And the food is also really great. The decorations are really fun, colorful, and upbeat, and you’re sure to have a great time.

This was my first time here and I was very surprised how good the food was. I had the chicken chimichanga, it was delicious! The chips was hot out of the oven and salsa was one of the best I’ve had! They keep the refills coming and the service was great! This will be my new spot for Mexican food!

I think I take bad reviews of a place on Unilocal as a personal challenge, much like all of my airline pilots like to take turbulence as a personal challenge. By reading the reviews on this site, I decided to give it my own shot considering they were old.
Whatever the beef with this place, maybe they read their own reviews and have made the necessary corrections because I had a wonderful dining and inviting experience. From the awesome monster margarita, to the delicious and portion-​nuts molcajete, everything from the service to the environment was great.
Time heals all wounds. And sometimes, time allows an establishment to plus their brand. As far as I’m concerned, for the money, I got an awesome meal experience, awesome service, and left feeling better for it. Give this another look before you believe the haters.

Strangest, least-​appetizing tasting margaritas I’ve ever had. Clearly from a pre-​made industrial mix, nothing that tasted at all like real limes whatsoever. And even worse, served so WARM I had to add ice from my water glass just to make it at all drinkable. Seriously, how hard is it to squeeze some fresh limes and add tequila? Total fail on that point and I forgot I’d had the same experience a year before at their South Cedar location. Never again.
That said, the food? Is I guess acceptable basic/​Americanized Mexican as you’d expect in any suburban area. I ordered a Shrimp a la Diabla and got the Shrimp al Mojo de Ajo instead (new waitress, I wasn’t going to make a fuss, although I could have but I was HUNGRY and hate to see food wasted.) It was ok, served with standard rice and guac and salad greens.
All in all, nothing to write home about and I’d put up with mediocre Mexican food if they could make a margarita that didn’t just taste like chemicals. But alas, apparently they can’t so this was likely my one and only visit to this location (and the last time I’ll give Los Tres Amigos a try while in the Lansing area.)

Don’t have too much to say about this place other than it’s better Mexican food than I’d expect to find in Michigan. I’m from Southern California where we practically invented Mexican food, so maybe I’m a little spoiled: D It’s a cheap sit-​down lunch that’ll definitely fill you up for ~$ 10. No complaints.

If you’re looking for inexpensive and fast, this is the place to eat. Authentic? No. But the food tastes good, the wait staff is friendly, and it’s clean — which isn’t true of some other local places. We go here a lot because it’s just up the street.

Horrible service at this location on 3÷10÷12! Rude waiter. Rushed us to order drinks & food. Hair was in food. We were asked to show/​prove it! Then manager said all the cooks are bald! Wow! Never again here.

This place is so fast you could easily go there for lunch & make it back to work with time to spare! (if you work in Delta Township that is) they have a great selection of Mexican food here. The quality is good and I much prefer this place to Famous Taco or Cancun. Lots of choices for vegetarians. Try the potato enchiladas, they are my favorite. Don’t forget to save room for dessert, the flan is nice & light even if you don’t have much room left.

Los Tres has several locations throughout the Lansing area. I think they are all about the same. Yummy free chips and salsa and fast service. I went for lunch the other day– the special was $ 1 cup of chicken tortilla soup. The soup was very tasty and had huge chunks of chicken. It was a little greasy, but not too bad. Everything I have eaten there is delicious. My favorite is the chicken chillaquilles! They have happy hour specials and really tasty margaritas.
