Compadres Mexican Restaurant Warren

Went in today for lunch with my wife, food was absolutely wonderful. Came out fast and hot. I got the steak and shrimp fajitas and my wife got the ground beef empanadas. Ashley was our waitress, and she was excellent. Jazmin was the other waitress she helped deliver our food. Wonderful experience overall. Definitely recommend!

The old Margarita King is no more. Now called Compadres, we brought our 13-person group here after a long day at Nelson Ledges. Our server handled our group with an excellent attitude despite some of our people's particular food requests. :)
Let's start with the positives: Our food came out (as requested) when ready, not sitting somewhere until all was prepared. The 'street corn' was outstanding, I'll get my own next time instead of sharing. :) Everything was flavorful, including the salsa. The french fries (!) were the bomb! Perfectly cooked and seasoned and fresh.
The mediocre: the tortilla chips are unseasoned, thick and dry. Basically a simple delivery system for the salsa. Our baskets seemed to be mostly filled with broken pieces which were hard to dip into the salsa bowls. We'd really appreciate freshly made, thinner, salted chips. The margarita flight was in small juice glasses, not the rocks glasses pictured on the menu. Not a good value for the price although tasty.
The California Burrito was advertised as 'buttered crispy' but was fairly dry - and I had to hunt to find any chicken in it. It also had plenty of diced red onion (yuck) not mentioned on the menu. So I won't be craving that anytime soon.
Overall, it seems that only the name has changed. The exterior, the decor, the fixtures are all the same as Margarita King. Tables still kind of sticky. But that's okay, so were we. :)

The food is really good and the portions are fair! You can still see remnants of the old Mary M’s!

If you want Mexican and you're in a diet, this is the place to come. Food was excellent. But the portions were way off what I'm used to a mile down the road Sr Jalapeño on North River road. The chips were like scraps. Guacamole was like a half portion. So I'll be going the extra mile for the better deal. Fast service and they stayed open until closing. I'll stop back when I hit the lottery and update my review.

Food was amazing!!! The Birria Tacos are my favorite! Will most definitely go there again!!
