Have been coming here for years. The food and drinks here are both excellent. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Sit at the bar and pick Serafin’s brain about his awesome tequila selection.
The food was bad! The drinks are good and so is the service! But the food almost reminded me of Pepe's restaurant not authentic at all. Also small portions! The steak tampiquena was a joke nothing like it is portrayed in the photos it was miniature size! The atmosphere was boring no music in the background thank god our group can make it a good time anywhere. I liked the drinks but the food was awful that's why I wouldn't ever go back! I will never recommend it
Decided to finally try this place, and was very disappointed. I ordered a steak fajitas dinner and couldn’t even finish it. The meat is extremely low quality.. the rice had no taste.. even the salsa tasted like plain tomatoes? I understand this is not an authentic Mexican restaurant but I couldn’t even chew my steak.. The food quality is very low here.
This was my second time here and I ordered the Carne Asada a la Tampiquena. I wish I took pictures of the food but I'm a lightweight. I had a glass of pina colada made with Malibu rum and it was delicious. The steak was the best that I've had in a long time I ordered it medium with little pink. It was so good that the next time I'll have to order an extra piece of steak since I was sharing my meal. I also want to mention our waiter Tony, awesome gentleman, very patient, kind and friendly, and it shows that he enjoys working there and that is a plus for us patrons because that means great service which he provided.
Service is always hospitable and any of the margaritas, there are harder to find better ones! Below is a Paloma and “La Jefa” - cheers
The horchata could use an upgrade and can have less ice in it but the flavor in it taste like coco on Christmas plus their flower tortillas and so good and soft and the server was so so kind and made sure we had everything we needed ☺️
The food was covered in cheese for no reason. I ordered the enchiladas with cheese and they had no sauce on them and they were supposed to have a red sauce. My fiancée ordered a burrito, and he also had a layer of cheese on his burrito, which he had to peel off to grab his burrito. The rice was dry so I only ate the beans and quesadillas. My fiancée recommended this restaurant, but we were both disappointed.
Nice atmosphere. Now the rest. May have been an off day with service, but the lady seemed to be having an issue with those that bring the food and drinks. The food was mediocre at best. I ordered arrachera, and that was good at least. The rest was fancy taco bell food. Margaritas only came one side and they charge per drink(lemonade, non-alcoholic). Won't be going there anytime again soon. Oh, and they kept cleaning the table before we were done. Had to shoo them away.
