I love Besito Mexican. The wait staff is attentive. The food is great. The drinks are great. I truly have never been disappointed. BEWARE: the tortilla chips... highly addictive. I had a special taco appetizer based on octopus. Delicious (I had to share it and everyone was suspicious, but they loved it too).

New portion sizes very small, as a vegetarian I always got the sweet potato tacos appetizer as my main meal- they changed the ingredients and the size is now miniature going from 3 to 2 tacos.

With some changes to the menu, I’ve been trying different entrees and they’ve been a bit underwhelming. I will continue to try different items. The drinks and apps have been great as always.

Besito has a new menu which, is VERY good. The previous menu did not necessarily need any changes, as they always had great food. It really shows that they are one of those places that reviews their offerings to make it better. Great stuff Besito, well done!

Sadly I think the restaurant has declined! The waitress staff was not great. My food came out with small flies coming out of it!! I thought I was crazy but then both my husband and I caught one of the nats. We called over the waitress. The manager came over very apologetic but said they probably came from outside but no they were coming out of my salad. They did comp my meal but would have preferred better service and clean food!
