We tried Banditos for the first time recently and it was ok. We ordered empanadas and some tacos. The empanadas were the best part of the meal. Tacos are fine but overpriced in my opinion. The carne asada taco was tough but flavorful. Service was ok but it seemed they were understaffed even thought it was not crowded on a Friday night. We'll try again and hope it's better.

Went on an NFL Sunday and the place (including bar) was almost empty. TBH, the big sports bar up the street was super crowded, so this was the bailout.Two things I'd recommend - the first of the double doors was open on a 60 degree day, which wasn't bad. But the flies in the bar made for a poor dining experience.Now the core issue - the bar service. We had one bartender and five bar patrons. The service was so terribly slow that I left without being served, although I reminded the bartender gently that I was ready to order. Other patrons were also complaining that they hadn't been served. Honestly, I think that the poor fellow behind the bar was either very new to the industry or bartending or both - but the net result was lost customer revenue and will definitely result in my not coming back.

I love Banditos the food was very well-seasoned the service was very friendly and attentive the space is large has great music so prepare yourself to be eating delicious food and dancing in your seat while sipping on your margaritas. They have lots of different options to try as well as desserts. I had the chicken tisa taco bowl. It was huge! Lol enough for two people to share. Check out the menu to see all of whats in it. I will definitely order this again.

I couldn't stop thinking about my last visit to banditos and how good it was (just about 2 weeks ago!) so I dragged my husband along this time! We sat outside at 4pm on a Tuesday and we were the only ones there for about an hour. We started off with a round of margs and the chips and queso. He loved his spicy margarita and that the bartender used fresh jalapeños. The chips dip plate was a huge portion! We focused on the happy hour tacos menu and ordered 5 to share. Our favorites were (in order) Al pastor, carnitas, nashville hot, pollo asado, chicken Tinga. The only reason my review dropped a star was that their margaritas still seemed inconsistent because my first was very good and strong but my 2nd had too much sour mix and was so sweet. Can't wait to be back again though!

Food is fine but service isn't great. Liked the cocktails particularly the orange crush and muerto along with tacos like the Al Pastor and Nashville Hot chicken. That said, some of our order was incorrect, we got approached with someone else's drink order, service was slow, one of us got spilled on, among other things. There's nice seating inside and out though.

We came here on Sunday June 30th after church. There were a few other patrons inside but not busy at all so we were seated quickly. Our waitress was nice and gave us ample time to decide what to order. Fiancee had a hankering for nachos and I always go for tacos at Mexican restaurants. When the food was brought before us, we were well pleased at the sight. The nachos looked amazing and it was more than enough to satisfy our appetites. The ambiance is cool, they have pictures on the wall with recognizable pop culture celebrities. It is located next to a nice little neighborhood to walk through after or before your meal. We really enjoyed Banditos! Our leftovers were just as good the next day

If you want tequila, this places hits but otherwise, not worth it. We stopped in for a late lunch. The menu looked decent and it was worth trying a new spot in a previously vacant location. I ordered 3 tacos, the birria, the Nashville hot chicken, and the bang bang shrimp. The best of those is the hot chicken, it was legitimately good. I've had much better birria tacos but it wasn't bad. The shrimp one was pretty lackluster, just a whole lot of breading and not much other flavor.The meal also came with chips and salsa. The chips were overly salty (they have a weird tajin/Doritos seasoning that could be good in smaller amounts), and the salsa was completely flavorless. My fiance ordered the nachos and they were not good. The same salty chips + irregular toppings + way too much sour cream. I couldn't eat more than a few because the chips were overwhelming salty. I took a few sips of the tequila flight which was very tasty, and I don't like straight tequila. The service was awful. Our server took our order quickly but never came and checked on us, or refilled our water. There was also a good 15 minutes between getting the check and when he came back to run the card. This was especially annoying given that the restaurant was basically empty since we came at an off time.

Wanting to try something new, I popped into Banditos for lunch. I really wish I had picked somewhere else. I ordered their wet nachos, and a couple of tacos, as well as a flight of tequila. The tequila flight was fantastic, and almost saved the review. Very smooth, and great taste. Out came a plate of chips and salsa. The chips are coated in what I assume is tajin or something similar, but if so heavily applied, I might have been eating Doritoes. The salsa was a wet puddle of bland mud. This did not bode well. Next was the nachos. They used the same chips, and the dorito spice coat pervaded everything. The outer layer was drowned in sour cream, and nothing else. Getting through each layer similarly found a single ingredient splatter -- the cheese, already cold and solid, floated over the middle before more plain chips. The tacos themselves were last. I ordered the Rus and Gus -- fried shrimp and fish-- and a barbacoa. The barbacoa was okay. The Rus, though.... the fish and shrimp had so much heavily seasoned breading that I couldn't tell them apart. Long John Silver style. Blah. Service was poor, too. Our waiter never came by and checked on us, offered water refills, etc. Nice to see something in this spot, which has been empty a while, but I'll not predicting this one to be here long.

Service was prompt and efficient. Food taste was middling. Ambiance was nice. Not very crowded.

They are getting one star for the size of the beer. Came for National Margherita Day and my wife said "this may be the worst Margherita I've ever had". 26 bucks for a small Mahi on a tablespoon of rice with a smear of avocado mash. Pathetic
