This is in reply to Tammy O.. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions however yours is way off. We eat there every week and love it! Complaining about too much food is absurd and you clearly didn't ask anyone for ice cream because they have ice cream, they moved it to the freezer. Too expensive? Wrong again! Very fair... More

My wife and I first tried to have lunch at the Freight House which was closed for another few weeks. We then settled on the Dirty Gringo which happened to be right around the corner and turned out to be an excellent choice for lunch. Judging by the fact that only two tables were unoccupied it seemed to be a... More

You do get a real nice selection to choose from & it's more "authentic" than any other area Mexican restaurant. Huge burritos stuffed to your liking, however they need to cook the tortillas a bit more before preparing them. A little pricey but overall very good quality, quantity & cleanliness. Highly recommended.

Joanne wanted to bring Rupert to try this place out because he missed it last time and it's her favourite Ogdensburg restaurant! He liked it too. We were overstuffed by the time we left. Nice service, low prices and great food from 2 fellows working there and I want to add that the washroom is super clean!!! PS I think... More

The Dirty Gringo plays a new twist on Mexican. Very sleek, very clean, and a different take on your usual Mexican Restaurants. No gaudy colors just tasteful decor and great food. Each dish is made to order right before your eyes so you know what you're getting. No waiting either, the cooks are very quick and aim to please. Desserts... More

Just bad food at very high prices...have no idea why they would even call this "Mexican" it is simply a fast food place that serves American foods that are called Mexican ...very bad ,and very expensive...and the food sits in the warmer way to long as it has a burnt taste and smell...will never eat here again

Came across the bridge specifically to try this place out. Couldn't believe the value for $ on kids meals; $4 for taco, rice, glass of milk and huge scoop of ice-cream for dessert. We ordered a chicken and a beef burrito. They were both really good. However, the best part of my meal was the "spicey black bean cakes". Sooooo... More

We come to Ogdensburg to pick up goods from the UPS store and are so thrilled we discovered this gem....it is really good Mexican/American food and huge portions...clean and with nice staff. Very friendly and the food is great...made to order and fresh. Nice picnic tables outside with unbrellas too. Seems quite busy...we find ourselves thinking of things to order... More
