    Excellent service and delicious food and drinks. Luis gave us wonderful service and made some great suggestions for next time. We couldn't even finish what we ordered. Next time we'll order the half priced appetizers.

    Good service, nice clean place, staff friendly the drinks were good especially the coconut mojito. The tamale de elote was delicious but the tostones cups Mixtos chicken, beef and shrimp were so salty hard to eat.

    The place was cute inside; very tiny place with paintings hanging on the wall. The server was really sweet and took her time to answer questions and recommend drinks. The strawberry margarita was really good. The Buffalo chicken was a little soggy and they only gave one flat, the rest was drums. The empanadas only came with beef filling but was topped with chicken and shrimp. They do give complimentary chips and salsa.

    Frozen Margaritas was delicious...but that's it.

    The ambiance was really nice. Came here for lunch time with 2 of my coworkers. We were in the mood for some good mex food but I must say I was disappointed I'm the food. It had NO flavor. I'm surprised because Mexican food alwayssss has flavor. I should of asked who was the chef cause usually makes a difference. I had chicken tacos from the lunch menu but no taste whatsoever. I had frozen margaritas and that was the only thing I enjoyed. The place is beautiful and nicely decorated but don't think I would come back again just only for drinks perhaps.

    Saw this place on a whim and decided to try it out. The website stated that they don't accept reservations between 5-9 on Friday's and Saturday's but I tried anyway to be on the safe side. I was able to reserve a table at 8:30pm on Open Table and they honored it when we arrived so I'm not sure what to say about that. You get chips and salsa at the table when you sit down and I'm big on pico de gallo so I asked for a side of that for the chips. Both the salsa and pico were good. They have really good sangrias by the glass, in half pitchers, and whole pitchers. I ordered the passion fruit blanca and it was delicious and gave me a nice lil buzz. I love a good sangria!!!! They have a very extensive menu with all your favorite Mexican dishes. I ordered the salmon fajita and it didn't disappoint at all. I'm not sure what my friend ordered but she enjoyed her meal and soup as well. Although we sat in the dining room in the front, I love the vibrant decor of the dining room in the back. The service was good, but the music was loud! I was catching up with a friend and we were basically yelling our whole conversation. The food and the sangria is worth another visit, though. They have several locations so you may find one closer to you. I just happened to physically see this one, so I chose to dine here.

    Took me a long time to finally try out this place but I am sure glad I did with my family. My wife is a sucker for 2 simple things - margaritas and mexican food. The drinks were good and I loved that when you sat down, you wereimmediately greeted with chips and salsa. The food itself was pretty decent as well, We ordered the vegetarian enchiladas, Quesadilla and Vegetarian pick 3 from the menu. I felt the quality was ok for the price and service was bit delayed for a Thursday evening. The dessert aswell wasn't worth the price. But I will definitely will come here again for the drinks and the live music!

    The service is great! They're very polite and cheerful. The food is delicious. It's a small space but it's nice to have brunch with the girls. This is our go to Thursday hang out.

    Let's start off with ehhh it's okay. Would i go back? Probably not. This is just one of those restaurants that you have once & you're content for the day but that's about it. The guac which is "made a la vista" was brought to the table already done. The tostones were okay, nothing in special. The entrees I would rate a 6/10. The dessert was the best part, it tasted delicious. Also, if my bill is $73 how is the 20% tip $20? The suggested tip is not correct.

    After reading the reviews of this place and having expectations, I was let down and I'm not a fan. I live not too far from margaritas and drive by very often always wanting to try the place out. My dad suggested going to brunch one Sunday and I was pumped to try it out. The ambiance and decor is very trendy. However, our table had so many flies constantly hovering over our table and nachos once we arrived. The one thing I enjoyed about my experience were the drinks. I got a strawberry mojito which was great. However, my meal was another story. I ordered the fish tacos and was pleasantly surprised by the initial platter. But once I picked up one taco, it all fell apart. It was impossible to eat. I told our water and she brought out more tortillas that did the exact same thing. I was unimpressed by the lack of quality of the meal and certainly the price comparison to the quality. It is a cute addition to town. However, I recommend eating before coming here. Possibly just coming here for happy hour rather than dining.

I was supposed to transfer at Jamaica but didn't realize until it was too late. Mineola was the next stop, so I got off and waited for my ride to accommodate me. It was hot as balls out and I was thirsty, and the thought of a cold beer while waiting the extra 20 minutes for my ride to get here sounded lovely, honestly. I was a little unsure about sitting at the bar alone at a spot I'd never been to before, but saw there was an outdoor table in the semi shade that I could grab (as long as I was fine with sipping beer out of a plastic glass). In retrospect I should've asked about specials, but I just went with my go-to Heineken which set me back $7. I wasn't mad about it. The bartender was friendly, though I did feel like I kind of interrupted a personal conversation she was having with a man at the bar who seemed to be a local. Can't speak to the food but their menu did look good. Not a bad stop, overall. I feel very recovered.
