I have given this place 3 chances and every time is the same, the tacos are not good, the salsas taste like pure tomato or tomatillo and the inside is so noisy you can't have a conversation. Sorry but we will not return. I really wanted to like it but I lived in Texas and this is not Tex Mex food, not sure what it is.

Drinks and appetizer were good but the main food was not.Main food:Brisket grilled cheese: very greasy.Brisket tacos: extremely greasy, grease was dripping out and had a puddle in the tin/plate.Blackened shrimp taco: nothing blackened about this shrimp, no flavor whatsoever and did not taste good.

Never ever again. The waitress was good but nobody smiled beyond the waitress. The man who sat us was miserable as well as the bartender, plater, bus boy. The building is absolutely amazing but it deserves a better restaurant. The food was over priced as were the drinks.

Came for brunch on Sunday (St. Patrick's Day) with a few friends and we weren't disappointed. Mimosas were good, and the breakfast quesadilla was just the right size to leave room for a piece of tres leches cake. The chicken and waffles were huge...like, huge! My friend probably had breakfast for the next two days! Our server was friendly and the people watching was great - they are catering to all ages here! My husband and son were disappointed that they didn't get to come along, so we'll be back for brunch soon!Parking: On Sundays, the public lot is free, and there are some spots right next to the building.

Estrella is our favorite spot in Downingtown! All of the food and drinks we’ve had here have been amazing, plus they have an awesome happy hour. It’s a great atmosphere, and I am always recommending it to people!!

We got the steak tacos and Brussel sprouts they were very good. Though the tacos were basically a salad with a couple strips of steak on them.Parking: Had to park a block away and walk over.

My wife and I went to Estrella for the second time and the experience was lacking. We ordered one Margarita each at $13 and they were served on small plastic cups, no salt nor were we given the option. We ordered a taco each at $7 - $8 each and they were served on paper plates. I asked the manager if they always served their drinks and plastic cups and she plainly said "No". And that was literally it. She didn't explain why or say hey... The drinks are half price because they're in a dinky plastic cup. Point being if customers are going to spend $40 without the tip for a quick bite to eat and a nice drink on a Sunday afternoon at least put it in glass and serve food on an actual plate. The experience was lackluster to say the least.

My Food was ok, server was awfully, the manager sucks. My grandmothers food came out cold, and her over easy eggs, were harder then a rock. Don't come here. They tried something diffent being a brewery with a breakfast place. It just doesn't work.
Smoked wings are the best in Downingtown, and Madison makes THE best margaritas!

The food is awesome and the service has been great every time I've been here. It does get pretty busy on weekends but you can always go upstairs which is usually a little more tame.
