Wish I took a picture!! I'm recommending this to my family ASAP because this was some of the best (Tex) Mexican food I've had in a while. I ordered the Yucateca and the pork was so flavorful and smoky, topped with onions and tomato's for that balancing acidic tang that we all love in this type of cuisine. The rice was cooked to my liking, at first glance you think it's plain white rice, but it's flavorful, rich and super soft. Wish I knew how to cook it like that. The seating is cute and soft on the eyes, the musics at a good volume and our server was attentive and polite.

Tuesday 11/19/2024I've had this spot on my radar for over a month but now I'm finally visiting it. I spent $58.27 on a pick up order via DoorDash and got the carne asada a la Mexicana (medium) $26, shredded chicken chimichanga $19, and tres leches $10.The pick up process was easy and service was decent for the short time I was there picking up.- the carne asada la Mexicana (steak) was better than I expected and I would give a 7.6/10 but $26 for the meal seems overpriced but maybe that's just me.- The chimichanga impressed me as it was better than expected and the chicken was moist and not dried out. Only takeaway is that $19 for the meal is pretty crazy for the portion you get.- The tres leches was a huge letdown. It was average, small, and OVERPRICED (charging $10 whole dollars for it is a scam).- The rice & beans that came with the meals were pretty regular & standard.Besides the Tres leches, the food was actually decent but I have a hard time believing that those high prices are worth it (they're not).

I have to say that the food and service were a little disappointing. My friend had never been there before and I raved how much I love El mariachi. She ordered soft tacos and said that only the steak taco was good. She also ordered a chicken and I brought it home and ate it the next day. The taco had seasoning on it that made it a little salty. I ordered steak and shrimp fajita. It was very good. We also ordered guacamole. I was a little shocked on the amount they give you for the price. It was a small portion and I had to ask for more chips because we ate the first chips with the salsa. I wouldn't order the guacamole next time.the beans in the rice are good. The WAiter did not checked on us frequently and I needed to ask for more water; that usually is never the case. The restaurant was quiet. It was a Saturday late lunch 3 pm. I know I will go back but this time I was disappointed.

A Mexican restaurant with some surprises. One of us got cajun jambalaya. Not Mexican. Not bad. I wasn't looking for a touch of New Orleans, but they nailed the sauce, with chicken and shrimp cooked just right. Our other dishes were traditional: shrimp fajitas and chicken fajitas. Again properly cooked and seasoned. Plenty of components to add into the tortilla wrapper. We finished with tres leches dessert. Moist and sweet as it was designed. Is 4 stars harsh? I based it on other Mexican restaurants that are on this level. For 5 stars, I needed them to be a cut above.

Excellent food! The steak was well-flavored, tender, and juicy. Attentive server. The ambiance is quite bright, authentic, and cheery as well! I'll definitely return! (11/7/24)

The food is great and I have been going here for years, but I can say that the prices have gone up astronomically and the portions have gotten smaller and that is a major turnoff especially when your loyal clientele are getting the brunt of the shortfalls. We will always come back but value right now can be achieved easily for both the restaurant and the guests. Sorry to be critical but sometimes the vacuum does not allow management to realize that when even one regular feels this them most of them do, but they just won't say anything.

I've eaten here a handful of times and have never been disappointed in the food. This visit, I came during lunch and the service was slightly slow. It seems they only had one server running all the tables. Came right at noon and it wasn't busy. We got seated right away. We ordered the combination chicken & steak fajitas, chicken quesadilla from the appetizer menu, a strawberry frozen margarita, and a mango margarita on the rocks. Everything was delicious!

The food here did not taste good. It's very mediocre and bland. For a Hispanic restaurant it doesn't have any authentic flavors and use a lot of American basic ingredients. Like the rice tasted like it came out of a microwave bag of uncle Ben's rice and the cheese tasted like Kraft cheese slices. The inside is nice and the people were kind. The margarita was delicious but other than that the food might look appealing but not worth the price. If you don't like you food seasoned or spicy this would be a good option but it's also kind of pricey. Check out mama pupuseria next door if you want some really good Hispanic food!

I am here, enjoying a good strawberry margarita on the rocks with salt and the most delicious chicken enchiladas with Mole sauce!! Now MOLE sauce has chocolate in it, but it's not what you think . It's incredibly delectable! But beware it's addicting !! And the staff is super friendly and amazing and it's a very quaint restaurant

I ordered for pickup and was told that it will be ready in 15 minutes. Arriving they asked me for the name the order was place on but I was never asked for one. They said they never put the order in and they just started . I waited but when receiving my food the proportions were so small for the cost. I ordered two fajitas mix and two drinks. I paid 70 dollars and I didn't have the option of drink sizes. I was given a small drink. I would not recommend this place. It was my first time eating here and I would not come back.
