Hectors On The Circle / Plaza

We were underwhelmed with the food and the service. There was 1 overworked server for a dozen diners while he was tending the bar. Of course he flubbed one of three orders. Meanwhile, the manager and the hostess were engaged in conversation and occasionally paused to give scant attention to diners handing over chips or takeout boxes. The food was good, especially the chicken molé and salsa Verde, but the rest was average. The interior is nice, huge. I imagine it would be even more difficult to hear your dinner mates over the drone of music that seemed to be remakes of pop hits.

Fast service, delicious food, best drinks on the circle must visit

My friend and I had lunch day after Labor Day and place was empty. Surprised to be told that they ran out of tortilla chips! Beside that the drinks were delish and so was the food.

Went in today ( Saturday of the Street Fair) Hostess was rude - I think she was expecting I was just trying to use the restroom and was surprised when I said, “Table for two please”. The place was not very busy - new waitress was unfamiliar with EVERYTHING so we politely left. Lost me forever. First impressions mean a lot.

We made reservations for a Saturday night, but it wasn't necessary as there were plenty of seats. The restaurant is well lit, nicely decorated, sports were playing on the television. The service was excellent. All servers were very attentive, it was very nice. They have a full bar although I ordered a Bacardi and Coke but they only had Malibu and Presidente rum. I've actually never had a bar not have Bacardi rum. My husband ordered a spicy margarita - both drinks were weak in alcohol. The meal was fine, ordered tacos and a burrito. Both were on the smaller side but most restaurant now serve meals on the smaller side. I'll usually take a pic of a lovely looking dinner but I didn't take any. It's a good place to stop in for dinner, overall, I would have rather spent my $140 at El Ranchito.

Food and drinks were good except for our server! She was in a bad mood!
We are not going back!

Our service was slow, took forever to get drinks. Our server got our order wrong 2x. Food was over priced for what we got. Plus side is that they can accommodate large groups restaurant was clean, surprisingly very empty for Sunday night.

Food was delicious , our waiter Jose was very attentive.
Good vibes

Nice overall place and a good spot to watch sports. However, the food - while good - isn't worth the price. For that price, go to Gabbi's.

Service is nice and you can have a fun time hanging out here though.

**Summary:** We visited a Mexican -themed restaurant after shopping at the Orange Circle. The relaxed atmosphere, good drinks, and delicious food made for an enjoyable experience. Service was attentive, and the food, though typical in presentation, was tasty and authentic. Highlights included the Carne Asada, Green Chicken Wet Burrito, and Cheese Enchilada with Chile Relleno.

We went to this restaurant after doing some shopping at the Orange Circle. We got there around 3 pm and there were only a couple of families, so it was not busy at all. The ambiance is good with Latin music playing—not too loud, so you can have a conversation at the table without raising your voice. If you’re a sports fan, they have TVs throughout playing current sports matches.

The drinks were good; we had an Horchatita (horchata margarita) and regular horchata drinks. Both were good.

Salsa and chips: The chips were restaurant-made, and the house salsas tasted authentic. The green one is either avocado or Mexican squash-based with a little kick.

The food came out relatively quickly, and the presentation was typical of other Mexican restaurants. It could have used a little garnish of something fresh to elevate the presentation. All food was temperature hot, including the plates, so be careful if handling.

We had the following plates:

- **Carne Asada:** The meat was tender and cooked as requested—medium. It could have used a little more seasoning but overall a good plate.
- **Green Chicken Wet Burrito:** My family member devoured it, so I’m guessing it was good.
- **Cheese Enchilada and Chile Relleno:** The cheese enchilada was big and the sauce tasted great and authentic. The tortilla was soft and the cheese was super gooey with plenty of it inside and out. The chile relleno was clearly restaurant-made and not canned like some other restaurants serve. The egg batter tasted good and was actually seasoned. Inside, there was plenty of cheese in every bite. This one is smothered with its own sauce that has a slightly smoky flavor like chipotle.

For the plates that came with rice and beans, both were great-tasting sides. The Mexican rice was perfectly cooked and not clumpy or mushy. The beans were creamy and tasted great.

The hamburger and fries were also good but nothing out of the ordinary.

The overall service was great, with our waiter checking in on us regularly and tending to all our requests. I would definitely come back to this restaurant and maybe try some of their seafood plates.
