    Shrimp Taco
    ChiChi A.

    We've been trying to get in this place for a couple of months and something always tends to happen. Well we got the chance to get in and I see why it's so hard to get in here. The food, drinks, and ambience is out of this world! Great food- get the ribeye tacos its new new on menu. The steak was tender and extremely delicious. We also decided to try the margaritas and those were the best margaritas I've had in a while. The service was quick and the bartender was not only friendly but she made us feel like we were regulars. Definitely worth your while and if you see me in there again say hi!!!!!

    Came here for Cinco de mayo. Had a great time it was packed 25 min wait but we were able to get bar seat and order delicious food. I shared wagyu burger and steak tacos everything was great. I did order guacamole and chips and got 3 large chips I think that is not brightest option with all guac they serve much rather smaller chips but they did fix that. The service was great they even gave us free patron shots. The restaurant decorated great and the servers dressed on theme loved the music that was playing will definitely come back. They also have outdoor space for nice weather.

    Vibey dinner spot, loud music, it's an experience. Food was 6/10. My favorite was the red snapper. Perfect balance of flavors. Street corn was decent as well! Would go back for apps, drinks, & tacos!

    I had a great experience at Meximodo. The atmosphere is beautiful, modern, vibrant, and perfect for a night out.The food was excellent. The chips came with several different salsas, each with its own flavor and spice level, which was a really nice touch. Everything we ordered was fresh and well seasoned. The tacos were delicious, and the elote style dish was rich and flavorful. The drinks were also impressive. The cocktail presentation was beautiful and tasted just as good as it looked. Our waiter Miguel was fantastic.very attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. His service definitely added to the overall experience. Great food, great drinks, great service. I'll definitely be coming back.

    Drinks 5 stars (for the area). Food 3.5 stars. Ambience/decor 5 stars. I am a frequent visitor to Meximodo Metuchen because 1) I'm always in Metuchen, 2) They have excellent drinks, 3) they have food my kids will eat, and 4) the ambience is great! With that being said, the food can be just OK sometimes, depending what you get. I do LOVE the chorizo queso fundido and pumpkin queso, yuca fries, and some other random apps and dishes. Shrimp tacos aren't bad too. However, we've gotten the fish tacos and other meat tacos like barbacoa which can be underwhelming or dry (meat). Fish tacos had too much batter and I could barely taste the fish. Was also not impressed by the mole, although the mole sauce itself wasn't bad. The shrimp & watermelon aquachile was plated and presented excellently with smoke and everything, but I'm not sure I would pay $22 for some watermelon again. Would love it if you brought maybe an oxtail or bone marrow taco or surtida tacos, or maybe even some good brisket tacos. Am I also asking for too much to see if you can house make your own tortillas? LOL My fave drink is the cocolada, but they are ALL amazing cocktails. Oh, and they have the largest tequila selection at a bar in the US. My husband is into that though, I'm more of a cocktail person. Service is usually good too and some of them really know their tequilas! I hope they bring back the happy hour specials though, because we always end up spending quite a bit! Also, I ABSOLUTELY love the decor all the time. They change it up with each season and various holidays, and even gave my daughter a legit meximodo teddy bear on valentine's day for brunch!

    Great spot! a fun night out, gorgeous space. and large windows that open up into a balcony to enjoy an indoor or outdoor experience. we had an array of food, the truffle street corn appetizer was delicious. as well as the mango guacamole. for the entrees we enjoyed the tacos and strip steak. they were launching a new menu that week, so unfortunately we waited a long time for our food. however. we were enjoying the time and our server was excellent. great spot for good food and nice dining

    My friend and I sat at the bar instead of waiting for a table. Great ambiance and decor - that part is a 10/10! The presentation of the food and drinks was also quite nice (especially the drinks). All of the taco options come in orders of 3 and cost $19-21. Between the somewhat chewy texture of all of the meat, and the overall lack-luster flavor of both of our taco orders (one with chicken, one with steak) - we were disappointed in the quality of the food, especially at their price point. An average price of $16 for most of their cocktails felt a little bit steep, but I suppose that's expected at most contemporary restaurants that have nice ambiance. This is one of those situations where the drink price wouldn't even have been a topic of contention at all, if the food wasn't so disappointing. Meximodo is a great place to go strictly for drinks with friends or a date night, or for a corporate event where the company is footing the bill.

    My first visit was about 1 year ago for appetizers, and I returned last Thursday for an evening with friends ready to explore whatever else is on the menu. It was packed for a weeknight; however, we were seated pretty quickly even though we missed our reservation time. Everything tasted great, but unfortunately I will not be returning. Even their minimally spiced foods were apparently too much for me! The complementary tortillas were served with various dipping sauces, and our server made sure to describe each one including where they fall on the spicy meter. I stayed far away from the hotter sauces, but my friend stated even the mild sauce was still spicy. I added the diced tomatoes to the same sauce and found it quite palatable. Most of the food items on the menu have a chili pepper listed next to it so my options were limited if I wanted to spare myself completely from the heat. I originally ordered the red snapper but switched it to the ribs after seeing them placed at a neighboring table (also the snapper was spicy). The ribs looked meaty and delicious, so I had to try them out ..and did. They were served as a large portion, meaty and tender -very good although different from any rib sauce I've had in the past, had a hint of vinegar. As I began making my way through a quarter of my plate, I asked for more sauce to add to the ribs. When the check arrived, I noticed I was charged $5 for that request. Now I don't mind spending a good chunk of change for a quality meal, but that charge was unexpected and felt unnecessary. For drinks, I ordered the Sam Adam's draft and later the Mi Amor which is Cazadores Blanco tequila mixed with bitter Aperol, sweet mango purée & a splash of fresh lime. The cocktail was very refreshing and mildly sweet. For dessert, I ordered the churros to go. They were shaped as hearts and served with dulce de leche sauce. I am certain I would've enjoyed it more if I ate it at the table. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated and looks especially nice in the evening.

    Chicken mole
    Gwo-Long H.

    A great restaurant with the world record of tequila and they have the certificate to prove it. We were there for a friends birthday and there were many birthday celebrations that night! We loved all the appetizers we ordered - queso, guacamole, plantain, and street corn. Most my friends had some tacos. One order ribs, one had salad and I had chicken mole. They all enjoyed their food. My chicken mole was fine but not the best. It wasn't spicy or chocolate enough. Otherwise it'd be a 5 star night.

    Patron tasting
    Brandon S.

    Had an amazing time here the food is amazing. I never had a crab tostada so that's being my introduction was great. I love the spices and the jalapeño aïoli day. Add it to take it right over the edge. The plantains were sweet as ever just the way I like it not to mention the server in our bartender, made sure that we were taken care of from beginning to end as we sampled patron for consumers that were available to try the ambience is true to Mexican culture you feel like you just stepped in the world of Mexico as soon as you go in there great place. Can't wait to try more things on the menu

    Huevos rancheros
    Barbara S.

    I got the huevos rancheros and it was delicious. Interior is gorgeous! Service was excellent as well

    Shrimp Taco
    Apsara T.

    I visited Meximodo today and it did NOT disappoint! I ordered the mint mojito, street-style corn, and guac and omg the appetizers were sooo good. The street corn was insanely tasty and mixing it with the guac made it even better. I was already so full from the apps, but I still had to try the shrimp tacos for my entree. The shrimp were big and juicy, and the aioli was sooo good. It was labeled spicy on the menu, but it wasn't very spicy at all so I added extra hot sauce. The place got busy really fast for a Monday night, so I definitely recommend making a reservation to secure a table. Can't wait to come back!

    Mango margarita
    Shailesh P.

    Maybe recently I'm picking not so great places to eat. Today we decided to brunch at Meximodo, the place and setting is great. Our mango margaritas were great and strong. Food was mediocre. Our order was taken correctly but was not severed correctly and was mostly not inline with how we ordered, we ended up not getting two items. Even though we picked spicy, all food was sweet. Street corn, chicken taco, shrimp taco all were sweet and lacked flavor. Even if I ignore high price, right flavors were not there. Unfortunately I won't recommend this place for food.

Service was tied with the food for first place! Starting with the friendly and helpful hostess, every single employee offered a greeting and a smile. Our server was Elijah, he was wonderful! Warm, friendly and professional. He was attentive and perceptive. He didn't hover but anytime we needed he re-appeared. We were greeted by two out of the three managers, 10 out of 10. Now for the food! We ordered the rice balls, maple wings a Pepper pig pizza and for my cocktail I had the blue Hawaiian. Every thing was delicious hot and freshly made. The outside and inside are visually appealing. I would describe it as modern meets industrial with a nice dose or rustic, very nice.

Impressive discounts on food and beverages....next time! It wasn't busy so I was quickly seated. Fresh house made sourdough bread was delivered and delicious. The red sangria was a yummy blend and was a nice touch with my vegan pie. I ordered the pizza sans cheese and really enjoyed the eggplant, garlic, basil toppings. The house salad was a nice size and the fried onion topping added a flavorful crunch. I didn't care for the dressing though. Service was prompt and friendly, my water glass was never empty. Deducted a star as my cocktail, salad , and pizza all arrived at the same time which is a pet peeve. The server took the salad back but it was not refrigerated so she redelivery a room temp salad, blah. Sweet server just needs more training on timing. Or maybe that is the norm there. Next time, I will order 1 step at a time to avoid that issue. Private parking with an upper and lower area which was a bit confusing, will know for my next visit. Bread was so good that I purchased a loaf to bring home for my hubby in Atlanta!

We wanted to have after-dinner cocktails in a chill space, so we searched on our phones & saw Paradise Lost address via Google. We proceeded to walk down & was unable to find the establishment due to their being no front sign. After walking back & forth a few times, we saw another group walking towards the door & they confirmed the place. We walked inside the front door pressed a "doorbell" & lo & behold we gained entry after the previous group went inside. Definitely an incognito entrance. Once inside that door there is someone to greet you, & take your information. There is a forest/ grass/ jungle-looking foyer/ hallway we walked down to get to the next door. Before we knew it, we were near the "Paradise Lost No Vacancy" neon sign w/ an arrow pointing towards the snake-shaped knob door. It gets opened & a supercool speakeasy awaits.... Paradise Lost has mixed style table / seating arrangements throughout the place. A bar seating section, booth-style seating area, lounge- style seating area, etc. We got there a little after 7pm, so the afterwork crowd was in full swing. Paradise Lost has interesting atmosphere. At times a Gothic / Medieval Vibe, meets place w/ shipwreck decor, meets eleganct /club vibe w/ beautiful ceiling lighting, etc. Music played in the background. Staff are friendly, energetic, & attentive. We were pleasantly overwhelmed w/ the vast selection of tiki cocktails that were on the menu. Paradise Lost also have an intimate selection of snacks/ food menu items. This included Popcorn, Tater Tots, Devilled Eggs Rangoon Dip, etc. We ordered some cocktails served in unique tiki mugs & a bucket of popcorn to munch on w/ our drinks. The popcorn is flavored w/ Sea Buckthorn & Browm Butter, which gave it an special flavor profile. Our cocktails were well-prepared & nice & strong. Paradise Lost has individual unisex bathroom stalls & a communal vanity & sink area. The bathroom stalls have spooky voices coming from a speaker as you use the bathroom. I was so humorously taken aback, it had me laughing when I came out...Definitely a different thing to experience in the bathroom - lol. Before we left we watched one of the bartenders do a cocktail "fire" presentation for some patrons in a booth seated area. Wow.... Paradise Lost accepts walk-ins only, no reservations. Paradise Lost accepts groups of 8 or less, unless you are requesting to book the space for a private event. Ages 21+ paradiselost.nyc @paradiselostnyc Paradise Lost is open everyday - 5pm-2am.

The staff here is all super friendly, and the environment is incredibly chic. They recently added more couches, and it truly has a lounge feel, which I think is really lovely. Recently, I needed to host a private event, and I knew they had experience hosting events, so I reached out to Maks to book my celebration. The planning part of this process was extremely smooth. Max was very responsive, making it very easy, and they were flexible with the details. As for the price, I thought it was very reasonable, and I rented the entire space, which I considered a good deal. The start of the day of the party was invaluable; they arrived early to set up, which allowed me to set up what I needed as well. My guest had really great interactions with the staff, and they truly loved the environment, the drinks, and I know they had fun talking with the bartenders, which made the experience worthwhile in my opinion. Thank you, 3 BR, for helping me celebrate some tremendous milestones in my life. If you need to book a private event, I would recommend checking out this place first and speaking with the staff. I don't think you would regret booking a private event with them, as I would not hesitate to do it again. .
