Hey there! So, I swung by Motte's Cafe Verde in Lethbridge recently 'cause I heard some good stuff about their Mexican food. First thing I noticed was the parking lot was kinda empty and they closed early, which had me raising an eyebrow.Inside, it was clean and all, giving off this cool Mexican vibe with the simple chairs and tables, and a fridge stacked with canned drinks. But the place was a bit too dim for me. There were three signs on the wall. The first one was about how to order, the second one had pictures of the food, and the third one was a story about the owner who moved to Canada in '04. The pictures of the food weren't exactly making me drool, you know?So, I went up to the counter to order, and the guy there (owner, maybe?) was not as friendly as I'd hoped. I asked for some advice on what to pick, and he kinda brushed me off, telling me to choose from the pictures on the wall. I mean, that's a first!Anyway, I went for a burrito, but had to pay extra for beef. It wasn't a huge portion and set me back 19 CAD - felt pretty steep to me. It tasted okay, nothing wow about it. Felt like the same stuff I've had from food trucks down at the Mexico border, but those were way cheaper.So yeah, I think the place could do better, especially with being friendlier to customers and giving more bang for the buck. I've always known Mexicans to be warm and helpful, and I missed that here. Maybe the owner's time in Canada has influenced the way they do things - just a thought.That said, I see that the place has some pretty high ratings online, and a bunch of folks seem to love their food and vibe. So, maybe I just caught them on an off day or something.Anyway, I hope this review helps out. We could really use some awesome Mexican food in our little town of Lethbridge, and with a few tweaks, Motte's Cafe Verde could totally be that place.

Definitely my favorite Mexican restaurant in Lethbridge! Great menu with lots of choices and options! I love that there's lots of options for people like me who love the flavor Mexican food but prefer a milder spice level, but at the same time they have tons of spicy options for my husband. Everything we've ordered was fresh, hot and tasted amazing. Their guacamole is superb! Staff were friendly and welcoming.

Great takeaway mexican food! The staff are awesome, very friendly, and patient. They made our order really quick. They do have seating at the location, but it is more or less fast food as you order at the counter. Amazing salsa and chips, and the tortillas are super tasty.

It's always a struggle to find good Mexican food in Canada. I've been wanting to try this place for a while. The outside is unassuming, but once you walk in, the decor is fabulous. I love that they have photos on the wall of each item, and what I received was just like the photo (which is not always the case in some restaurants). The staff was super friendly, the food was great. It's my new favourite restaurant in Lethbridge. We wanted to let Julio know how much we enjoyed our meal, but he was gone when we finished. Funny enough, we ran into him at the mall right after, he remembered we had just been and stopped us so we had the opportunity. We will 100% be back soon.

For a fast-food Mexican experience - this was excellent. Sadly they had run out of guacamole- but, that’s ok. We started with the queso cheese dip and natcho chips. Nothing too exciting. But - bring on the double beef enchilada and the birria corn tacos stuffed with pork and now we have ourselves an incredible dinner! The salad that came with my enchiladas was crisp and fresh. I had two choices of rice, black beans or refried beans, multiple choices for salsas, enchilada sauce and salad dressing. The birria corn tacos were jammed full of pulled pork, grilled with cheese to perfection served with a Mexican soup for dipping. Now, what I didn’t like was all the serving waste - my enchiladas was served in a metal tin and I was given plastic utensils. I recognize this saves on having to wash dishes but I cannot imagine the landfill contributions. I would have given five stars otherwise. Within the first 10 minutes of arriving there were at least 5 skip the dishes pick-up so clearly this is a well-respected local eatery. We are from out of town, would come back again and would recommend. All of the food handling employees were friendly; there was a young fellow cleaning and wiping the entire time - so this place is clean too! The interior decorum is adorable. We finished with churros. Yum!

Service was quick and friendly, prices are decent. Tacos were very good, will probably be back sometime for more.

Delicious food! We have been here a few times and we're always happy. The service was so friendly and everything was fresh and tasty. I had the corn quesadillas and my husband had the enchiladas. I appreciate how they have things that are really mild and other that are really spicy! My husband likes spice! Lots of choices, seriously try this place!

Awesome food!! Super fresh and friendly staff. Lots of variety and home made salsas. Authentic and prepared by the owner himself. You have to give this place a try.

I’ve been here before and remember it being better. I wanted a vegetarian option and ordered the two enchiladas and asked for black beans as the protein but only got black beans, rice and a sauce inside making them small and bland (no veggies?). Then she asked if I wanted beans and rice as a side or more salad, so I chose more ‘salad’ which ended up being only lettuce, tomato and a dressing. I got to the cashier and got a Zevia pop ($3), and she told me the total was $22! I said “$22?!? For veggie enchiladas and ‘salad’?”. She said it costs more for extra ‘salad’. If I would’ve known that, I would’ve got more beans and rice. I said, “You’re telling me salad costs more than black beans and rice? I have no meat in my order”, and she said yes. That’s ridiculous! Then I went to eat it, and it was not good. I have to wait to get it home to put at least more queso on it to make it edible. Sorry, but I won’t be back.
