Had an excellent meal with a group of 5. Our group included dietary concerns of carb counting, gluten, and vegan, and everyone found choices suitable! The table seating was a little tight. Live music started 1/2 hour into our meal and although the performers were good, it was annoyingly loud and we had to shout to hold a conversation. I would visit again but would choose a better table location. I generally love “dinner music”, but this was just too loud.

Food was good. Soda was a little weak. Refried beans great an presented well with nice main dishes. Thought the salsa mild needed a bit more flavor. Servings were large so we had great leftovers. Service was attentive and with a gray smile.

Food is real good, just don't order take out without checking the order first. Three times they forgot items on the order, but still charged for them.

Ordered some steak tacos which the meat was very well done I also ordered a medium Horta which it looked like it was an xtra small size and it just tasted like milk. It’s a very nice place but food and drink not too good.

The live performer was great. They served a red snapper that was spoiled and overwhelmed with garlic to the point that my wife was immediately sick and in the bathroom throwing up and with diarrhea
She only took one bite and asked the server (who was very nice) to take it away because it tasted bad. When the bill came, it was still on the bill. I asked for it to be removed. The manager came over and refused to take the $30.00 off the bill, arguing that the fish wasn't bad, she just didn't like it. We went back and forth for 8 or 9 minutes with me refusing to pay for it. She finally let it go.
We've now been to Antigua twice and both times the food was amazing- authentic, big portions and excellent flavor. Will return again!!
Very attentive wait staff. The food was delicious and fresh tasting. There was enough on my plate to bring home for lunch the next day. Will definitely return.
Really enjoyed the live music. I had the octopus tacos, delicious. My husband had the chicken mole also delicious. I had a drink with Malibu coconut rum and house made horchata, also very good. I've eaten here twice and there is so much more I want to try on their menu. Not a fan of their chips but that leaves room for the good stuff.
Incredible food. It was a little loud, but they also had a father/son duo playing classical guitar, so the noise level makes sense, and the music was great. They just need some more drinks on the menu, but I love this place.
I really like this place,i really recomend you have to try it,and they have live marichi on sundays ,and they have a dine out side thats the best part of it.i Will bring some of my friends next time,i dont do this ofthen but my friends got to experience this.see you next time.

I normally don’t like giving negative reviews for independent local businesses - even when I don’t like the experience, service or quality of food. Usually, I just don’t return, BUT after reviewing my receipt this morning I realize my server overcharged me by a substantial amount. Yes, checked my bill when he hovered over me with that ridiculous mobile card reader, which is so unprofessional BTW. All of the items were correct, but he increased the number of items on me. This is after having a mediocre meal and I personally know what is quality Mexican cuisine should taste like. Not cool!

The food was good but the guacamole could have been better (a little bit less fresh). The music outside was a little too loud for only a few tables occupied.

Underwhelming experience, from the chops and salsa to the seafood mean items tried today.
Visually the food looked great but very bland tasting.
Great ambience though.

The tacos and salad were sweet. Usually I don't mind but there was no kick, not spicy at all. Still good tacos but definitely needed that heat
