Talk about a party!!! What a great Saturday I had celebrating my friends birthday and mine! The lounge we reserved was perfect for the party and we loved the view! Susie the manager, I do belief, was beyond helpful and super sweet! Calling and booking was super easy and I highly recommend for others to book their parties in the Lounge or even on the main floor! Thank you all so much and most definitely will be back!!

Es una lugar maravilloso, con la mejor musica, talento local e internacional, me encanta la celebracion multicultural que se ofrece, tanto en musica, como en comida, artesania, etc. El personal el sumamente amable especualmente la srita Susi, siempre tan amable y sonriente. Ambiente seguro y 100% familiar. Lo mejor de Nashville, super recomendado.

This restaurant is now closed. We made reservations using their website, even received tex confirmation the morning of. Then we showed up to a "For Lease" sign on the door.

This was not authentic Mexican food. The queso taste like the cheese that used to come in the lunchables. They didn't toast our tortillas.

I've been here a few times now and I'm still not a fan. They are located in the Plaza Mariachi shopping center on Nolensville Road. They have a coffee place and a restaurant next door. I had a few of their items and they are ok but definitely not worth the price they charge. It's missing something. The kitchen it's open to the public which I like a lot. You get some experience I guess. They have a bar and outside seating that it looks like it can also be use during the cold weather. Their decor it's you guessed it "wood". The chairs and booths are not very comfortable because they have no cushion.They have a bathroom in the restaurant and they have a changing table. The staff is not the best, I did like the girl that served us last time we went. She was attentive and friendly. Other staff seem and act like they don't want to be there, if you don't want to be there why would I? That's maybe why I'm still not sold on the place. I will still go unless I find a new place to grab a bite that's near my friend's house.

This place does not deserve the time it takes to post a review of the dishes and how bad they were. Just know this may be the worst Mexican/Tex Mex I have ever had. I don't care this is a terrible review. They didn't have a problem serving us the frozen salt ridden trash and calling it Mexican food, so why would I feel bad writing this. They need to close the doors, and start over! Stay away!!

I took a co-worker to this restaurant for lunch - first time for both of us. The service was horrible. We waited a long time to be waited on, and there were hardly any other customers in the restaurant. I ordered the carne asada. It was the toughest piece of meat - definitely like shoe leather (about the size of a large flat insole, too). It did have good flavor, and we were pressed for time, so I didn't send it back - but it was almost impossible to chew. My co-worder ordered chicken taquitos. They looked like the little rolled up cheapy ones you can buy at the grocery store (24 to a box). We asked repeatedly for sugar for our iced tea, and never got any. We even had to flag someone down for our check. This "ain't" happening again for me!

It's Mexican but not really Mexican. It has a wide variety of Central/South American choices, you can sit inside or out depending on the weather, and you have all the extras of being located at Mariachi Plaza. We''ve been many times and will keep goiing back.

Sadly, I feel this place has gone downhill. I think they used to be branded as a Latin grill, now they're calling themselves "Tex-Mex". There's really nothing Tex Mex about it. Dishes like arepas and shrimp and grits are not Tex Mex, there are no frozen margaritas, it's like they're confused about what they want to be. I came here for dinner so I can't speak to the brunch menu but items like maduros Or green plantains were not available. Service was great. Salsa portion with chips was stingy. Very small bowl of guacamole was $9. Good, but very overpriced. I ordered shrimp and grits. They didn't bring a kids menu so I assume they don't have one, which means we ordered a $9 plate of wings that my child barely touched. The chipotle shrimp and grits ($18) were good and unique, but they were really light on the grits, the cheapest part of the dish? I guess I'm glad they didn't skimp on the shrimp but it was unbalanced. Overall, pretty pricey, not really Tex Mex, not really Latin grill, we would have been much happier eating in the food court.

Bartender, server, helping decider of entrees extraordinaire James was amazing. A great Mother's Day brunch. WOW. Breakfast chimichanga, huevos rancheros, Mimosas....All so so good.

We loved this awesome coffee shop! The owners were super nice and helpful. One of the best coffee shops we have been to in Nashville. We will definitely go back! Oh and we left with 3 bags of their freshly roasted coffee beans. Thanks Madera for a great experience!

Just the wife and I. Had a great lunch. I had the Cuban sandwiches and they were really good. Second only to back to Cuba. Wife had the tequila lime chicken wings and they were good. We both had the Mojo rice. Very good. Second best margaritas to Bar Taco Great staff wonderful atmosphere. Worth the trip. We will be patrons.

We stopped in on Saturday after watching the Chinese new year show. James was attentive, funny, and made a great margarita. We will be back!

Had the pleasure this afternoon of visiting this coffee shoppe located in the Plaza Mariachi on Nolensville Pike. The owners are a nice young couple who were super friendly and excited to share their love and knowledge for their craft.
