    Chicken was overcooked and really dry. Guacamole just okay. Certainly not what I was looking forward to. Disappointing.

    I don’t usually leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience at Mexta. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning. The food was overpriced and, honestly, it didn’t taste good at all. It just didn’t live up to the cost.

We strive to provide our guests with exceptional food and service, and it seems we fell short this time. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to improve.

    The kitchen had a bad night. One dish was undercooked, another overcooked. A third arrived 45 minutes after the others. There were some delicious sauces, however. Well selected wine list. They took ten percent off our bill, which barely covered one of the poor mains.

    The food is tremendous and lush, with unique sauces. However, the staff needs to upgrade their skills in serving customers who share plates. Namely, they should add serving utensils and small clean plates before the dishes are served. We had three rounds of shared servings, and each time, we had to ask for more tableware to enjoy the incredible meals.
    MextaResponded on April 14, 2025
    Hi Tom, We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed our unique and delicious food. However, we apologize for any inconvenience caused by the shared serving utensils. We always strive to provide the best service to our guests, and your feedback helps us improve. We hope to have another opportunity to serve you better in the future. Best, Mexta Management Team
