Came to Ometeo before a show. Did make reservations and was glad I did as it was very busy when we…read morecame in- though the restaurant is quite large with a 21+ lounge upstairs, and a large bar area. Bathrooms are upstairs; they were clean and well appointed. Service was great, everything came out paced well to get us to show on time. Food: Delicious! From the complimentary chips and two types of salsa (green and red), to the dessert (chocolate coconut cake), we enjoyed our meal. We had guacamole in addition to the salsa. He had steak tacos, I had fish tacos, and we also had the kids buid your own steak tacos meal. Everything was so delicious and impressive. I thought the cake was moist and great.

Our first dining experience at Ometeo was a bit of a mixed bag…read more The food itself was quite good--that wasn't the issue. I ordered the shrimp fajitas while my husband got the carnitas fajitas. His portion was generous, but mine only came with five shrimp, which felt pretty underwhelming for nearly $30. On the positive side, the rice and beans were flavorful, and the complimentary chips and salsa were enjoyable. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. Our server, Sam, was extremely slow and inattentive. We had to flag him down multiple times just to get basic things like refills on iced tea or boxes for our leftovers. It felt like we would have been completely overlooked if we hadn't actively tried to get his attention. Even when he did assist us, the service was lacking. For example, he didn't bring enough to-go boxes, and we ended up waiting until a food runner noticed us and stepped in. When I asked for salsa to go, he brought an empty container. We also sat waiting for quite a while to pay our check until a manager (we assume) finally came by to process it. It wasn't just us--the table nearby also had issues. A guest repeatedly asked Sam for a clean glass after receiving a dirty one, but he never brought it, and he also got her drink order wrong. Overall, while the food was good, the service experience really detracted from the evening. Will we be back? Probably not. Ometeo is worth trying once but just don't get Sam as your server!

Its extensive, diverse menu features unique specialties and vegetarian options, all crafted with flavorful, fresh ingredients. This location is smaller than other Taco Bamba outlets I've visited, with limited indoor seating and patio seating available. Many customers choose to take out.

The Torta Bamba is generously filled with meats, pickles, avocado, tomatoes, and pineapple, and the portion size is ample.

I wasn't feeling up to the big chains and places I wanted to try seemed to close early. Luckily this place was open and I had been wanting to try it for a while. Definitely it let a hidden gem! There are some parking spots right in front, although not many. There is a decent amount of seating, but it would be tight if you had a large party. My partner did note that the bathrooms weren't that great. You immediately get served complementary chips and salsa. They were pretty basic, but not bad. We ordered the following: + Papusas (Pork and Cheese & Loroco and Cheese) - Decent, although I prefer the Loroco (an edible flower bud). + Pollo à la Primavera (chicken dish) - Yummy, especially the sauce which mixes well with their hot/spicy sauce too! I could do without the salad dressing. + Camarones con Calabeza (shrimp dish) - Same as above! Note they leave the tails on. + Natural Juices (Mango and Maranon) - So refreshing! I loved the Maranon (cashew apple) was a wonderful burst of tropical sweetness with a subtle nutty taste. I appreciate that for the pupusas they had the foresight to provide my partner and I two plates so we could sphere the papusas. The portion sizes of the entrees were great for the price. It did take a while for the staff to swing by so that we could get boxes and the check. Note that credit cards and mobile pay are accepted. I definitely wouldn't mind coming back again to try more items on their menu.
