What ? a bust!! They were not open right now on keap and Broadway ?

My friends and I saw the Instagram brunch promotion and decided to give it a try. The brunch menu was incorrect but appreciated the knowledge from our server. For $40 they offer an entree and bottomless rum punch, sangria, margaritas and mimosas. You are limited to one choice per customer. I'd go with the sangria or rum punch!

Food was ok steak was chewy had to send back only thing that was ok was the hookah and they only have mint. I hate they add 18% for tip when just 2 ppl. We sat outside n it was just ok no real reason to go back

We were seated 40 minutes after our reservation. It took 30 minutes to get drinks and chips and salsa which were terrible (they were out of guacamole). We left and went somewhere else to get food. Terrible experience

The food was quite good but the service was strange. We tried using a Pulsd deal though at first, and was told by the waitress that they stopped taking it a week prior. She corrects herself after we put in an alternate order and despite backtracking, we could not change the order in time and had to get our voucher refunded.

First time In this restaurant and my finally and I are DISAPPOINTED! we made reservation at 6:45 and didn't get to order our food till 8:00Pm ! The waitress forgot that we were there an we were at party of 12 people. The food was not even worth the wait.

The service was very slow, other than that the food was really good. The guacamole and the salsa were fantastic. I got the steak fajitas, they came out a little cold but tasted great.

This place was amazing. The service was awesome, the food was authentic and delicious and the atmosphere was a lot of fun. We sat out in the back and had brunch and it was a great time. I would love to go back here again.

Went for a birthday celebration. I thought it was going to be crowded since it was a nice Friday night but it wasn't. We had such a good time! The waiter was excellent and the food was good. We got there just before happy hour ended and was still able to partake. 2 drinks each and shots all around. NICE! I plan to go again and recommend others do the same.

Great staff we were late for our reservation but were able to accommodate our group of 9. Their regular margaritas were delicious as well as the red sangria. Food took a while but was definitely tasty. Would go back again.

Dined here New Year's Eve with a group of 13 people and it was exactly the fun, lively experience we were looking for, filled with a huge surprise too. The "live music" we assumed would be a Mexican band was actually two guys stepping over chairs, playing an extremely loud electric guitar and singing a song called "10 months pregnant." It was more than we bargained for but a hilarious way to ring in the New Year. The prix fixe menu wasn't that great, so I'd be curious to check out the rest of the menu on another occasion when there's not a prix fixe. Guacamole was very good. Tequila chicken good. Service was attentive.

Gathered all my closest friends here for my 25th birthday. The staff was more than generous and gave us the option to sit outside. When we noticed that it was starting to drizzle the staff had already begun putting together a table inside. Some liked their food, some not too much. Either way it was a great experience and I'll definitely be going back.

Restaurant was empty on a Saturday afternoon and we still had only "okay" service. Prices were as expected given the location and venue. However, had a gift certificate. That was the real reason for the visit, frankly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I reserved a table for 10 for my best friend's birthday and chose Mexico 2000 because the reviews were good and because the food comes highly recommended by a friend who orders takeout regularly. Though we had 8, rather than 10, we had a great time. The food and service were excellent. Mexico 2000 reminds me of family-run Mexican restaurants in Houston and San Antonio, and all the sometimes-homesick Texans at the table felt at home. Thank you!

I love trying new neighborhood places and this one is truly a gem! Everything from the guacamole to our drinks was delicious. The service was great and the wait staff didn't miss a beat. I have dined at some of the fanciest restaurants in the city and the wait staff at Mexico 2000 could easily be employed at one of those establishments. I will definitely be back! My recommendation is the pescado veracruzano. This fish dish was full of flavor and seafood itself was fabulous.
