   Unfortunately we were there for Father's Day and they ran out of mostly everything. Our waitress realized our frustration and spoke to the manager and he came over and covered our drinks which made up for it. Would love to try it again maybe would call ahead to make sure they have the full menu

   I like coming here with family they offer Clase azul shots at a decent price but often the service is lacking. I have had multiple occasions with bad experiences! But I’m thinking of trying the place next door

   Great vibe and service. Was sad they were out of the Chorizo Hash as it is my fave, but! Enchiladas were equally delicious. Our server was attentive and pleasant even with being a busy Saturday night.

   A very good Mexican restaurant with a lot of options. Overall it is a great place. In the summer time, you want to sit outside.

   Waitress was friendly but slow. When we didn’t order drinks, she disappeared. We literally had to find her so I could order for my daughter, after we’d been there about 30 minutes. It did arrive quickly. The rest of the food came out slooowly, in about 4 shifts. By the time the fourth group got their food (chicken quesadilla, salad and tacos), the first and second groups were half finished. The chorizo was more like smoked sausage. I know this is Tex-Mex but that wasn’t chorizo. The brisket taco was very good, and didn’t need the corn or sour cream. The rice was spicy (not a good choice to serve to children) and the beans were tasteless, even with the cheese. Bottom line, get the quesadillas (very cheesy) or brisket taco minus the extra toppings. Typical Royal Oak prices. I’d drive down to Mexican Village for better food and service.

    The restaurant itself is good. Food is fine to above average. However, both times I’ve gone here, the bill was brought back without my card. I had to ask and wait for it to be brought out, which came with immense apologies and excuses. Never had this happen at any restaurant and it happened here twice. Something is fishy.

    Great selection of margaritas, but overall I find it very over priced and over hyped. My quesidilla was VERY salty - too salty. The tables feel cramped and the drink glasses seem so much smaller than other places. After 3 visits I never became quite as impressed as I heard. Im thinking there was a shift in management and organiztion which hurt the overall quality. Worth a try but thats about it.

    The food was poor. No seasoning AT ALL in our orders with the exception of the nachos and tortilla chips. Our order of margaritas was limited because the fruits were unavailable Finally there was no guacamole! How do u have a Mexican restaurant without guac??? Will not be back.

    The ambiance is nice. It’s good to go for a one time try, especially if you live far away. Chips and salsa were good. I felt the margaritas were overpriced for the size. The margarita flight was not available and it appears that the flavors are preselected for the flight. I felt the tacos had no flavor to them. The most flavor came from the pickled red onions. Overall it was good but not enough for me to go back.

    My boyfriend and i made reservations to come here and when we got there we stood at the front for 15 minutes nobody acknowledged us or even told us to hang on. The servers walked passed us atleast 3 times and didn't make eye contact with us or anything!

    Brought me the worst smelling, tasting queso I've ever had, my whole party was disgusted, it was clearly cooked in a burnt pan. I got the Pollo Rojo tacos, and it didnt fit the description, was pretty disappointed. We drove an hour for this place that was great 2 years ago when we tried it.

    The food did not live up to previous experiences I have had at this restaurant. Everything from the guacamole we ordered to accompany the chips that are complimentary to the main entrees was very under-seasoned and lacking in flavor.

    Second time there for my husband and I. We took some friends/family there for dinner. It was packed (no biggie as we made reservations) but it did add to the noise level…to be expected at dinner. Brisket tacos were ok..one person described it as tasting like roast meat bot brisket. The Nashville hot tacos were freakin killer though. One person (very picky eater with a narrow list of acceptable food options ordered a burger w/fries. Fries were good, burger looked basic and well done. I personally enjoyed our visit, but the food could have been as good as it was the first time i went there. We enjoyed the visit overall and will definitely be back

    Longer than average wait for our food. But that can be expected with current times. However being accused of dinning and dashing after paying the bill and tipping on the QR code option was a new and unexpected experience.

    Service was excellent. Food was pretty good. I was disappointed with the Mexican street corn. It was tasty but for getting a very small piece of corn it was not worth the $7.

    I had high hopes and wish I had read the reviews. We came for my girlfriends birthday. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. She was the best part of our visit. I ordered the margarita flight. They were decent, but if you see the pic of the flight, the garnishes didn't seem to make sense. The chips had no salt. I ordered the carne asada tacos and added avocado. The meal comes with beans anne rice. The beans were AWFUL. They came cold and dried out. They tasted watery...which I don't understand how that's possible. Had to add a bunch of salt and mixed in the salsa as well to make them edible. The rice was bland and dried out and cold. The avocado was turning, the meat was really hard to chew. The tortillas almost seemed more like pita bread than tortillas and had a weird aftertaste. We had a table behind us that was super loud. I couldn't even hear the other people at my table because they were so loud. Normally I wouldn't blame this on the restaurant, but I switched to the other side the table baccarat they were giving me a headache and realized that it was actually 2 tables next to each other with their server in between-basically facilitating the noise. I'll find with people having fun, but they were right next to each other and SCREAMING unreasonably across the 2 for space between their tables whole I couldn't even hear my friend next to me. We thought that maybe their server was off the clock because she spent so much time socializing with them, but then we saw her taking their plates and filling their waters. We would have gotten dessert, but couldn't bear to sit another minute there. So, maybe I'll come back for margaritas at some point, but that's about it.

    Had a reservation at 9pm and had to wait 20 minutes to get seated. Unfortunately they were out of a lot of stuff but they still had their brisket tacos which are amazing. The drinks we all got were really good. We ordered guacamole, queso, and street corn as appetizers- the guac was very bland and the “street corn” was a small charred corn on the cob with barely any cheese on it. Would come again for drinks and tacos only.

    I always wanted to try this place. Welp.. tried it and our whole table was disappointed with their food. Everything was bland and dry. They were out of the mexican corn. It was mentioned that there was new kitchen staff so maybe that had something to do with it. I always say, you have to try it for yourself. Maybe it was just a bad day.

    The food was mediocre. The atmosphere was pleasant and the server was polite and attentive, if distant . There are Mexican style restaurants in metro Detroit with much better food at a similar price point. I would not choose to go to Mesa again
