We placed an order via Uber, it was a bad experience with the entire order, but especially with the large cocktail. The size of the large cocktail is truly a shame!! I called to ask and they told me that the portions are smaller when you order that way, I dont understand why it costs the same!! Plus you obviously end up paying more for the delivery service, and I understand that but their portions are a shame, at least for the large cocktail I ordered for delivery.

Very small place to have live music. We went on Friday as a family but the place was packed but understandable. When we were going to be seated they made it a big deal because we had a stroller for our baby. They asked to get her car seat because the stroller would make it hard for the server s to walk by, 2 I was told that we could put the stroller next to a non working speaker. Well the speaker was working and very uncomfortable for our baby. 3 our server knew that it was 5 of us but still only took 4 drinks; when asked for no citrus on one plate they still put it on the salad. When we asked to give us another plate without the orange that was on the salad she said well just have her not eat it. I don t know if they are not trained or what but a person that is allergic to something that they can t consume the place of service is warned they have to make exceptions for that person no matter what. So if anyone goes to this place just remember it s a small place and they DON T MAKE EXCEPTIONS for their customers. We are never going back there. PS the food portion are very small and lack of customer service by host and server.

The food is not good... they serve quickly but there is no good flavor... the service was bad in my experience, the boy who served us put a lot of pressure on us to order and almost took our plate away as soon as we finished the last vocado... when leaving We realized that they were already waiting for it, thats why we rushed so much... personally, it is a place to which I will not return.

Excellent service and very friendly! So if you like seafood you will realize that all their dishes are appetizing! And if you love good, well-made food, I recommend you go to El Pulpo Restaurant!

There are thieves working here. BEWARE and dont use your debit card here. My waitress stole from my debit card. I had one modelo here, paid $7 plus $3 tip. Then I got randomly charged an extra $40 for no reason- I know this was done intentionally because it was a separate charge and based on past reviews here who had the same thing happened to them! Manager (if not involved) needs to investigate their employees because theft is bad for business. Had to close my debit card and report the fraudulent charge.

This place is ok. Its quite pricey for the quality of food that they have, the service and atmosphere was good, but the food leaves a lot to be desired. The flavor is very bland. I ordered the shrimp cocktail and it hardly had any shrimp, it had more diced tomatoes than anything and they care more about presentation than actually making it easy to eat, for example the Avocado comes in huge pieces which you have to cut down in the cup in order to make it last.

We got out of a late concert due to the parking traffic and we called and confirmed this place is still open. You might need to know a pinch of Spanish but you can manage! The salsa is warm but tasty. Chips have a great texture. We ordered the fajitas for 2 because that was the best we could tell. Just was psyched to see them open late since everyone else was closed. No wait either.

Lunch time, there s not much of a crowd. Dinner and late night, this place is packed! The rice is nice and fluffy like it should be. The salsa has just the right amount of heat. The beans is at the right consistency, it is not too lumpy. The enchiladas were very good. The fajitas as also very flavorful. The fried fish was also very good. Everything on the menu looks so good. I was surprised that they serve crawfish! They do not have a web page, surprisingly they are on facebook.

Excellent service. A grateful satisfied diner with a promise to return from Mexico City.

I was pleasantly surprised, I ve seen this place before but, never went in. It was a Saturday night and it was rock n. The music was Mexican and they had a DJ. The food was amazing, I had the Octopus (pulpo) in Spanish. This dish came with fried rice that was moist and with a hint of Asian influence. I also had a buttered/grilled French toast that was the BEST ever. The Coronas were cold . My date had the garlic shrimp and micheladas. She s the one that picked this place out. Great choice! Parking: The parking was a bummer though, hard get a spot unless you valet. I actually parked at La Michoacana (2) doors down.

I asked for 7 seas soup. They bring me a spicy hot one. Only 2 pieces of fish and 3 shrimps. When I said that I cant eat spicy food because I suffer of GERD, the waitress shows bad attitude. None should put chile on plates. The level must be chosen by the customer. Im not forced to eat what hurts and pay for it. They have a lot of publicity, thats all. I recommend GOLDEN CORRAL BUFFET. ONLY $ 8.99 Between 2 - 4 pm. Lunch 10.99 lot of choices...
