Tonight Banditos was operating with the most skeletal of skeleton crews. My daughter and I arrived with two starving children. We were shown to an area filled with uncleared tables, even though other parts of the restaurant had nice clear tables. We were seated at the last clean table in the messy section, in a corner. Then they forgot about us. Surrounded by tables heaped with dirty dishes, we sat and sat. It was unpleasant. Ultimately I got up to request a table in a less forgotten corner. But no one was manning the front desk. I saw two harried waitresses at a distance, and several parties that were also just sitting, waiting. So we left.

First of all the atmosphere is so cute!! They went all out for halloween but in general you can tell a lot of thought was put into the decor to make it a fun environment. The happy hour was great, 10/10 recommend their spicy margarita. The beef empanadas were so delicious and all of their salsas and house sauce was so good. Lastly, our server Lucas was so attentive and great. Everything came out extremely quick and he was very personable. This will be our new go to spot before EagleBank events!

Cool atmosphere, food was ok. Pay attention to the prices on the menu prices and the amount they charge on the check. Ordered 2 modelos. Had 2 different prices in the check. Also happened with another drink I ordered. Price on the menu did not reflect what I was charged. Spoke with the bartender about it. Got it fixed. Got price adjusted yet it still did not reflect the menu prices. " I just work here " was the bartenders response. Manager was no where to be found to explain the prices. Nice place. Will not be returning.

Meat empanadas my favorite!!! From the moment we sat at the table we knew that we had not made a mistake, Julie and Diego gave us 10/10 attention, they recommended the best dishes and the food exceeded our expectations! Excellent place to go with friends and family.

Lucas was amazing and gave great service

Great food and our server Lucas was great!!

We came here for the first time tonight because I was craving Mexican, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint!! I got a strawberry margarita that was heavenly, the queso was white queso which to me is always better. And the chips had slightly too much seasoning for my taste but were still great. Our server was attentive and friendly, it wasn’t terribly busy inside but there was live music outside which was nice to listen to! My boyfriend got the bang bang taco and carne asada taco and loved them both. We will 100% be back and you should come too!!

The food is very delicious but they use a lot of pineapple in their ingredients, I'm not particularly into sweet flavors, I still enjoyed it a lot.
