The food here is honestly disappointing. If you like bland, flavorless dishes, then this might be for you, but I was not impressed. This plate alone cost $50, and it definitely wasn’t worth it. The service was terrible, and while the place advertises itself as a “Mexican restaurant,” it doesn’t feel authentic at all. The music choice was off, —it just feels like they’re profiting off Mexican culture without actually representing it.

I am beyond upset and embarrassed that I brought my family here today. The service we experienced was nothing short of disgraceful.

The man who was our server — grey hair, wearing a hat — left us waiting endlessly for drinks while other tables that arrived after us were already being served. My family sat thirsty and uncomfortable, and I eventually had to get up and ask the bartender what was going on. She was the only one who showed any professionalism and took our drink order while our so-called server was nowhere to be found.

When he finally came over, instead of apologizing or checking in, he rushed us, demanded to know what we ordered, and made us repeat ourselves like he couldn’t be bothered. He wasn’t helpful in the slightest, just clearly wanted to get away from our table to go to the next table.

Throughout the entire meal he never once checked on us, never refilled waters, and didn’t even bother clearing plates. We even had to stack them ourselves just to keep the table tidy. The food itself was delicious — credit to the kitchen — but the service ruined the whole experience. (Tratando la rasa como si no somos nadie)

To make matters worse, at the end of it all, this man shorted us and essentially stole money. That is absolutely unacceptable. It’s a shame, because this reflects poorly on the restaurant and the owner, who I’m sure works hard and had vision for this place. But one rotten employee can ruin everything, and that’s exactly what happened here.

I will never return, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone unless they enjoy being disrespected and ripped off.

I'm sure better spot on Fridays or Saturdays but went for Sunday dinner and it was out party plus 2 other tables at 6. Server was great she was super friendly and on point but main food was mediocre at best. Good portions but just really no flavor to be honest. Had their signature burrito. Margarita was not good unfortunately. Apps were decent.

It has a fun vibe great drinks and friendly staff but it's American Tex Mex. No authentic dishes no birria, no tamales not even pozole portions were big and plenty of leftovers but lacking seasoning we ended the night with tres leches cake and it was fire.

Atmosphere drinks and a fun vibe but def not authentic Mexican it's American Tex Mex no tamales no pozole n or even birria tacos my husband was also disappointed he was hopping for more authentic dishes like the ones he grew up on.. chicken and steak were not seasoned well and the taco wings had little to no flavor at all. The only thing we enjoyed was the tres leeches cake that was fire

DJ on a Saturday is pretty decent. The drinks never taste that great. For a huge restaurant I would think the service in the bar would be better but it’s not. Friendly bartenders but they seem to lack true bartending skill. It’s dark and dull in there.

Decent Mexican restaurant in Middletown. Cheap margaritas are worth it. Food is nothing out of the ordinary, decent quality and prices. Tons of parking on the main street.
