Fajita Grill - Mexican restaurant in Westbrook - 857 Main St, USA

This was a hard call, and I wish Google would let me rate 4.5. I finally decided to just round up to 5. For Maine, this was outstanding, phenomenal Mexican food. The fajitas were excellent and plentiful. The beans and rice, the salsa, the chips, the draft beer options, the guac, all delicious. Overall, it was better than most of the Mexican food places up here, for sure. Probably 3rd or 4th best of all we've tried so far. The service was great, as well. Lovely ambiance, fast and attentive service, crazy fast food arrival. The only two reasons I would say 4.5: 1. I was disappointed in the quesabirria. It was delicious but absolutely NOT authentic quesabirria, which should be a seriously unhealthy meal. Fajita Grill's version was like a healthy version of the concept. The tortillas were dry, not soaked in birria before cooking. There was no melted cheese inside or out. The "consomme" had no fat and little seasoning. Overall, these were more like carnitas but made with beef roast, and served with something closer to au jus. Again, it was delicious... But it absolutely wasn't what I ordered, wanted, or would have chosen if I'd known how it would come out. I hope I get a chance to go back and try the poblanos. 2. The queso is served chilled, which shouldn't even be possible. Queso, good and real queso dip, should solidify when it gets cold. It should be too thick to even dip a chip in once it gets cool. The waitress warmed it, and it was as thin as water and tasted like it was walked through a room where queso was stored... But mostly it just tasted like crema. Again, overall the food was honestly delicious, but if you are Southern and you see quesabirria, al pastor, elote (they called it something else, but that's what it looked like) and other delightful surprises on the menu... Proceed with caution.

We stumbled in on a Taco Tuesday, lucky us! The chicken tacos were really good, my partner said one of the better ones he has ever had. The chimichanga was ok but not quite as impressive, the chicken inside was more dry than in the tacos. All and all very good food, very kind service, the restaurant itself is maybe a bit dated but I didn't come to eat the booths.

If your in Westbrook or around the area this a good place to stop in for fajitas. Friend staff fast service and huge portions of food for affordable prices.

awesome food! highly recommend the fajitas and the tamales. Havent had green Chile sauce like theirs since I lived in Colorado. The bar is pretty sweet, huge tvs and decent drink specials.

This is a good spot to grab a quick meal and a cold drink and the prices s on point 👉

I stopped here for lunch with my daughter. They brought out freshly made chips and salsa as we sat down. Warm tortilla chips were delicious and the salsa was also very good. I ordered the carne asada taco lunch plate. The meat was good. I liked the Mexican flavors. The sides of rice and beans came in little tortilla bowls. The hot sauce was good but the guacamole was just okay. The prices are very fair. All in all, it was a good lunch experience and I look forward to going back when I am in the area.

Excellent quality food with large portions. Ingredients are fresh and cooked to perfection. Menu has something for everyone including vegetarians. Chips and salsa served with every meal. Great drinks as well. Large bar area with several TV's to catch a game and have a great meal. Outdoor seating also available. Parking can be scarce but worth the effort.

Maybe I just caught them on an off day, but my experience wasn't great. Chips and salsa to start - nice. Added some queso to that to keep things going strong. Also nice. Ordered the chicken mole and the most remarkable thing on the plate was the beans. The rice tasted days old, and the chicken was tough and not picked well, so every other bite had some gristle. The mole sauce was kind of earthy and smokey, but not at all pleasant. Other folks at the table said their meals ranged from "pretty okay" to delicious, and I think those meals included some chicken tacos, a few tamales (which looked good), and a salad. The margaritas were great! They should list the prices on the drink menu, but I don't recall them being highway robbery on the bill either. Service was fine, but it did take about 20 minutes from when we asked for the check to when we got our cards back to sign. Everything seemed clean and I appreciated the big open space with a welcoming atmosphere. I would come back to try them at lunch or for a couple rounds of margaritas, but $19 for a very subpar chicken entree was pretty disappointing.
