Mexican Radio is always a good choice, we have never been let down. The food is unique and unlike anything else we've found. We've been going regularly for a few years now, almost since they opened, and I have never tasted anything on the menu that didn't impress me. HIGHLY recommend trying each side, but especially the elote cauliflower and the crispy rice. Go during Rad Hours between 4-6 during the week and get a huge discount on their Happy Hour menu - totally worth it!

Food and drinks are good, and adventurous. The prices are a little steep for what you get, but it’s a trendy place in the plaza so it’s expected!

Our party of 6 had a little bit of almost everything, and it was all incredible. The vegetarian amongst us was incredibly pleased to find plenty of options, all delicious, and the drink special (something with rosemary, peach, and aperol) was bright, fresh, and topped with a rich whipped cream. 10/10 highly recommend, every time.

Love coming here and tonight was great! My only complaint is that we were sat at a very small table but they were pretty busy so that probably played a factor in this since we were just 2 people celebrating our anniversary

All was very good. Unfortunately my order got mixed up with someone else. I ate the wrong meal. It was good but not what I ordered. My wife’s meal was just what she wanted and she enjoyed it very much! The staff was very apologetic for the mishap and removed the charges from my bill even though I insisted on paying since i did eat the meal after all! Overall a very good experience and we’ll absolutely be back.

First time: Overall good experience. Less-than-room-temp coffee was a detractor, but waitress was pretty understanding and returned a bit later with hot coffee. May be tempted to revisit just to try another dish - very unique and extensive menu.

Mexican Radio is always a favorite. We had a party of 5, ordered the empanadas, dip trio, and brisket papas to start and everything was perfect. We had a picky eater that wanted queso with no cilantro on top and our server accommodated our needs efficiently and with kindness. We had the hot cheeto taco special, chicken flautas, and half moon nachos, plus several sides, and really just ate everything family style so we could all have a bit of everything and I highly recommend this method. The restaurant was clean, we were checked on often, and we had a fantastic time as always.
