Rick

Food was good. Service was excellent. Tres Leches dessert was outstanding. Steak burrito was good but not quite as good as the previous times that I have ordered it.

DOUGLAS

Neat restaurant, wonderful staff. Food is not authentic Mexican, definitely Americanized. A little spendy for what you get.

The enchiladas with mole sauce is my favorite! The black beans and rice side is delicious too.

Steve

Nice menu offerings with a little bit of everything (maybe a bit light on seafood). Enjoyable evening with good service and decor decked out for Christmas.

Clearly has the most unique Mexican menu with a ton of variety you'll ever experience. The support staff give you water as well as lots of chips and 2 types of salsa right away. Food quality is very good. Yet my lobster tostadas were not too flavorful. Their temperature was not hot neither, and extremely high priced for just two tostadas. My girlfriend enjoyed her dish very much. Offered excellent variety of margaritas. Both of ours were very flavorful. I got the North Shore. Our server was excellent. Yet, took awhile to get out margaritas. The kitchen delivers all food to table and took them forever to give us our tortilla soups. And he first brought them to the wrong table. I had to wave him down. Overall we enjoy going to Authentico, and we'll go back.

The hostess shoukd probably find a new job. Very rude and incompetent.

Not authentic Mexican food even though the name is Authentico. I ordered the veggie mushroom Rojas which was very bland and had no flavor absolutely so I had to dose with lot of salsa to make it flavorful. Ambience is nice and outside seating is great but nothing about food to rave about.

We enjoyed the Shrimp Diablo and the enchiladas as well as the Kelley Margarita and the Chocolate Bomba for dessert. It was a perfect night to dine alfresco on their lovely patio. A delightful experience.

First time at the restaurant- we really enjoyed it! It was a beautiful day so we sat on the large patio near an outdoor heater. We had fun cocktails and a delicious meal. The service was a bit slow but it was Labor Day weekend so not unexpected. Our server was very friendly. We will be back!

The service is always very slow ! We like the place because it is a conveniente location to us ... the food is great, the price is fair, the waitress are kind ... is just feel understaffed

The food was very good but the service was horrible The waiter brought the appetizer and main course at the same time. The other staff sort of dropped the food down on the table like they were angry It was very rushed and it was not busy when we were eating The waiter dropped off the check and kept stopping by to take it with the credit card but i had not looked at it yet. The waiter had other tables so we were not keeping him from finishing his shift. Good food but need much better service
