La Tonalteca - Hockessin,DE

I have never been to a Mexican restaurant that chargered for chips and dip. One draft beer was ten dollars which is crazy. Last time I'll ever go there!

Missing two things on the dish I had order. No one acknowledged the fact that it was missing anything. Either that or staff don't know the dishes they are serving. I thought maybe I had miss order or read the menu wrong. After leaving it had checked and it was definitely missing two items; chalupas and stuffed peppers. They also cut down the chicken tenders to be like chicken fries. It would have been fine had the menu stated it, but it honestly looked like someone two the pre-breaded chicken tender most places have and cut them down. Probably trying to cut back costs. The sever stopped by the table a grand total of 3 times. On top of that, my wife clearly asked for three togo containers and the server brought two. We have been here before quite some time back(years ago) and it was good then. However, this was probably one of the worst experiences. I've had eating out in the last couple of years. This is coming from a restaurant manager with over 13 yrs of experience. I don't tend to be too critical due to the fact that I just want to be with my family and enjoy our time together. I know that mistakes happen, but when they do own up to them don't cut corners. This was just all and all not great, and I thought other should know.

I ordered a chicken quesadilla and was disappointed. I was surprised when it was served and had beans on the actual quesadilla. I have been to several Mexican restaurants and had never beans on one. I will admit I did not see it listed as I thought beans were served on the side. Had to reorder, and my companions took and paid for the meal.
Waitress was not apologetic.

Was looking forward to having lunch here. Ruined from the walk-in. The facial expressions, dismissed hand gestures. I changed my mind immediately from spending any of my money there. I should have known as I was the only person/car there during lunch time on a Friday ?

Wings and rice were not hot. Barley room temp. Happy hour 4 - 7. Banner says 1/2 price wings. I order a dozen wings. They charged me full price. I asked for correction. After 15 minutes I was told the happy hour 1/2 price was for 1/2 dozen wings. Nowhere was it indicated 1/2 dozen...the banner just stated "wings" . Completely ridiculous bait and switch. Will not return.

I had chicken nachos that were so bland and disgusting. The chicken had zero seasoning, and the queso sauce was made with American cheese, which was so confusing to begin with, but bland ,no peppers, seasoning, nothing. I will never eat here again.

The quaint hand painted booths and chairs as well as the mariachi band give an authentic Mexican ambiance. The house Margaritas were an unnatural bile color with corresponding taste, obviously made from a mix. The “supreme” Nachos were nasty & soggy with chicken from a can and tasteless ground beef. Should have attempted the more authentic dishes as sizzling fajita looked far superior to be fair. Service was slow but more from lack of staff than lack of effort. Possibly will give them another chance to deliver a satisfying meal. The fresh made guacamole was definitely a positive highlight
