Had the feeling that every recommendation was to choose a higher priced item, to increase the automatic 20% tip! Descriptions of what certain menu choices were, were incomplete/inaccurate. The dish once delivered was not what was described, and it was unclear how to even consume one of the entrees. Flavors were thin, variety was limited. However, the Guacamole was good.

Nothing special, kind of odd for a Mexican restaurant in that the guac was tasteless and there really wasn’t salsa unless you specifically asked and then they brought these tiny samples. Right on south beach so maybe that’s why it’s more pricey that what seems logical

I think the place is expensive for Mexican food. My food was great. I got the El Pastor tacos. Best beans I have ever had. Margarita was strong and good. I would go again but would just know that it may cost a bit more than I was expecting.

The waiter was very rude and didn’t make my dinner experience good. He kept us waiting for the check for 30 mins. He ignore us most of the time. I started to feel discriminated against. He seemed like he wanted some control in his life and wanted to make us feel controlled. It started to get very strange there. I wouldn’t recommend coming here. Maybe do take out.

The menu had a variety of options, but didn’t list prices for different sizes. Ordered a medium margarita, but was not warned of how large it was. I ordered nachos for appetizer, then was given a complimentary bowl of chips. Bad communication. Average food. Average drinks. Kid friendly menu.

Not the best experience - the food took a while to come out and the nachos were not great :/ the food was good (our main courses) but with the amount of time we waited, we could have went to another restaurant that had great service and food.. not staying not worth it but not if your starving and not willing to stay a while!

Food was nice. However, we were a bit taken aback when we ordered cocktails, and was asked if we wanted to upgrade to medium. The size of the cocktails was both huge and expensive, as it was much more than we wanted - although they were good cocktails which will probably be welcomed by many other diners.

I had huge expectations for this place. I made a reservation 7pm, but showed up a few minutes early, since we were a little thirsty and happy hour was was still going on til 7pm. I Was sat down and waited for 10 minutes before I finally stood up and went up to the bar to order drinks and was informed happy hour was only til 6pm. I double checked their online menu and it clearly said 7pm. I Went back to my seat and glanced over at the hostess, who had been chatting it up with a table next to ours, trying to get her attention. She went back to her station, but not before bringing more drinks to them. Finally, I stood up and asked if I was going to get a server. It had been 15 minutes by now. She seemed surprised no one had taken our order yet. How!? You literally stood by us the whole time! She assured me someone was coming. Waited exactly 3 minutes until I stood up and started walking away. The hostess rushed to try to sit us back down, but I was done by then. Walked over to the Pink Taco and got my Mexican food fix.

First time visiting Miami Beach, the area is fantastic and me and my partner wanted to dine at a Mexican restaurant. I came across many in Miami but this location caught my eye for the amazing pictures of the food on open table. However, our first impression was not very welcoming. The host was very serious and kind of made me feel unwelcome. As we got seated the server was not friendly and didn’t even mentioned his name or didn’t have any suggestions, came across as rude. Asking nothing but “are you ready to order”. The food was not as amazing as I thought it would, the chicken on the guacamole was very dry. The steak fajitas are good but it lacked flavor on the beans and rice (also the portions are like a small scoop, very little). I asked the server for corn and flour tortillas and the food runner only brought out flour. My partner had to wait for like 15min without being able to eat because he didn’t get his corn tortillas, he only eats corn tortillas. The server didn’t come and ask if we were okay, I had to get up and ask the food runner for corn tortillas, drinks and salsa. At the end the server seem upset when I asked him for some Togo containers. He brought the Bill and of course I know 20% service charge would be included because I did my research before stopping by, but having the audacity to charge me 20% on such a lackluster service was just very disappointing experience. I am more than happy to spend my money on me and my partner but not at a place where I got treated like if I wasn’t there! I know that the experience is not going to change but I just wanted to share mines for those that seek to have an awesome experience to think about this place twice. I do have to give a shout out to the food runner that worked on July 23 Friday Night because he was on it and helped me out when I went up to him.
