    Went with friends on a busy Friday night. The food was really good and you get a lot of it! I was expecting the usual small plates that only leave you hungry later on…not at Federales! The drinks were good, especially their Margaritas and Palomas. Service was exceptional. Our waitress (can I still say that?) was awesome - attentive, helpful, good personality and genuinely nice. All in all a great experience! Thanks Federales, see you again!

    Food and drink were excellent. The only downfall was that the cod in my cod fillet taco was over cooked

    I love this place. The tacos were delicious. My favorites were the wood grilled shrimp, the blackened Mahi Mahi and the cod fish tacos. My friend swears by the vegetarian tacos. Their table salsa is the best in the city. It’s always fresh. We also tried the Brussels sprouts and they did not disappoint. It’s summer time and it has a great vibe. Get a seat outside.

    Food is ok. Service was solid. It’s more of a bar than restaurant.

    Friendly host, seated right away. Our server was just ok. Can’t state his name because it never was given to us. He did check up on us, overall the food and the drinks were good. I guess he never seen my gift card which he thought wasn’t real. Customer service is never really good here. But the food / drinks are pretty good.
