I asked for blue corn quesadillas. My tortilla was not blue. Basically it’s a Mexican restaurant for non Mexicans. I enjoy upscale Mexican food but I’m not sure what this place is. Its comes of as Latino inspired dishes but I believe the they cater to mostly other folks. Also why was the fish so big on the tacos. It’s a large piece of fish on a tiny tortilla. I get it. Not all Mexican food is what we believe but this place veers off too much.

Second time at Bombera. Just as good as the last time. Atmosphere is inviting. Multiple dishes for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Took the two most picky eaters i know, and they enjoyed every dish more than the last. Staff is great too. šŸ‘šŸ¾ It's a great location for drinks, celebrations and just a good meal. Only slightly negative is be aware it is noisey and lively inside so don't go here if you are trying to have a quiet dinner.

Very pricey but the food was sooo delectable! The quesadillas with pork/the carnitas melt in your mouth (although some pieces of the pork/ carnitas were better than others). I wanted the carne asada but I think it was too expensive. Hand made tortillas. We tried to make reservations online in advance, but there was an error and we couldn't. But we were able to be seated immediately. The music was so loud inside so we couldn't hear each other, but it was the best cumbia and dancing music ever.. really fun energy! The staff was extremely nice and personable. It seems closed during the day but apparently it's only open for dinner? Parking was a bit of a problem but we found parking not too far away. The guacamole and chips were delicious but kinda small for the price. Their previous restaurant "Cosecha" had everything incredible also, and we miss it.

Dietary restrictions: I was really impressed with how clearly they labeled it when it did have gluten.

Me and my partner made reservations for 8:15 yesterday and arrived early around 8:05. We were sent to wait for a table to be ā€œclearedā€ and sat at back tables until 8:30 came around. I had approached the host who had been seating every other reservation that walked up since we had gone to wait, there were several open tables outside so I politely asked if me and my partner could sit at one of them because dinner service would be coming to an end soon and we’d already waited close to 30 minutes at this point. Their response was scrambled and they couldn’t give me a reason why that wasn’t possible but then pointed to a messy table and said well clear that one for you. We waited another 15 minutes before my partner approached again and asked the same thing because they forgot the name of our reservation so we fell under the impression we were forgotten all together. The host then said this table was being saved for someone who was waitlisted and from my understanding got to the restaurant without a reservation and was still sat before her and I were. The service felt messy and incredibly inconsiderate. As two people of color we couldn’t help feeling a selective bias at play especially considering the party that had walked up and been sat without the reservation were not. It was really disappointing
