Sonora Mexican kitchen and bar 1414 Nicollet Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55403

"I have been to this restaurant near downtown Minneapolis several times and I will keep coming back. In my opinion, they have the best modern Mexican food in town. Their food is creative, delicious and it comes at an affordable price. The Margaritas are just right, not too sweet or too tart. There are several beers on tap and the service is friendly and professional. Bravo!"

"Great selection of food. I went for taco Tuesday and all the tacos were $3. They were meaty, flavorful and filling. I had the steak, carnitas and shrimp (jumbo). The guacamole was also delicious and a good portion. The margaritas were perfect, although I prefer less salt around the rim, and the Paloma was also very refreshing. The service was a bit slow, but we didn't totally mind. It was a relaxing atmosphere, and I was in great company. Street parking and public parking out front."

"Good spot to grab some beers, margaritas, and food. The esquitas corn appetizer is off the charts and a must have if you go. The drinks a great, as was all of the dishes we had. Open kitchen to watch everything get prepared fresh. Cool vibe in the inside dining area, or bar area, as well as outside seating. Service was good and made sure we had everything we needed."

"We were in the area for a conference for the week and this was the first place we stopped at for lunch after we checked into our hotel. Our amazing server, Virgina told us all about the things to do and eat in the area. Also that they had taco Tuesdays. $3 tacos!?! Say no more. We went back on Tuesday, and again on Thursday. Everything we had from here was delicious. The chorizo beans come with homemade tortillas was super filling and delicious. The chimichangas with pork pastor comes with a savory consommé. The pan seared chimichanga with flavorful and tender pork has a little kick. Paired with the sauces and fresh ingredients was the perfect harmony. I didn’t expect the tacos on taco Tuesday to be as filling as they were. I got mine with the homemade flour tortillas. They didn’t skimp on the ingredients! The Baja fish taco had a lightly battered mahi that paired well with the crunchiness and freshness of the cabbage and sauce. The chicken tinga was an explosion of flavors with a healthy size serving of tender shredded chicken. The beef brisket was savory and tender. The mushroom burrito was super filling with well seasoned mushrooms and potatoes paired with a delicious tomato like sauce that has a slight kick. It tasted even better then I added the super hot sauce on it. Don’t forget to ask for the hot sauce!! Overall if we ever came back to Minneapolis, this would be a must to eat at again."

"April 2023 5* I am big fan of Mexican foods as it very close to Indian but get very less chance to try it out. This place is superb and really amazing food. It can get really busy so make sure if you check in advance. Also, be ready for little longer wait for food. Here is my food list: - Nachos with avocado ***** - Mexican Salad ***** - Tacos Mushroom ***** - Mexican cola (sugarcane) ***** - Obregon ***** There are few vegetarian options so you will like it. The staff is very helpful and nice but too busy. The washroom are located in the back but accessible."
