We have been wanting to come here for a long while but never found time time and special moment to do so. Since my good friend is visiting Atlanta from Washington D.C we decided to bring her here and for us to try this restaurant. Natalia greeted us at the entrance and took us to our table right away. The restaurant is simply beautiful and I who am a huge fan of Frida Kahlo loved the big portrait of hers at the main entrance. I must say Natalia was simply AMAZING!. She recommended some plates that are mostly famous by customers as well as some of her favorite ones. We ordered the Simmered Sunset drink that has Mezcal and it was sooo smoky and delicious, I just wished it tasted more like Guava though. I ordered the Carne Asada and 8 hour Brisket Tacos with a side of Black beans and white rice. The tacos were phenomenal in taste however I must say the black beans/rice combination though it didn't lack flavor, it was a bit salty. I feel like the cook put too much salt in either which perhaps they should be mindful of it. Also, I must also confess the music choices though it was classic Motown music didn't go much with the restaurant ambience and to my own personal preference was a bit too loud. I mentioned that to my partner and my friend several times so maybe they should be more mindful of the music volume and also music choices. We spoke to the manager before leaving to give him our feedback about Natalia who was the epitome of amazing customer service and what a waitress ought to be and he was very nice and approachable. We shall be back perhaps for Brunch and maybe next time around the experience will be even better!!! read more

Picture it: Saturday, February 28, 2026. An old friend is in town, and we're craving Caribbean Latin food. We've talked about going to Mojave forever -- always "next weekend"... and then next weekend would come and go. But this time? The perfect occasion finally arrived. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance felt inviting and lively -- the kind of place that instantly puts you in a celebratory mood. Now let's talk about the service -- because it was truly above and beyond. Our server, Natalia, completely impressed me with her attentiveness and communication. My partner ordered two tacos and she asked what kind of tortilla he preferred. "Flour," he said. I jokingly chimed in, "Boring!" When she asked what I wanted, I said I wanted two different flavored tacos -- and she didn't even ask what kind of tortilla. When my dish arrived, I was SO excited -- she brought mine on corn tortillas without me having to say a word. She picked up on my energy and preference just from that playful moment. That attention to detail made the experience feel personal and memorable. I even spoke to the manager, Joel, to share how impressed I was. His response? He wasn't surprised at all -- which says everything about the standard they hold there. That made me love the place even more. A couple quick notes: the music was a bit loud, and sadly they didn't have masitas de cerdo (one of my absolute favorites -- I was heartbroken for a second!). But honestly, the service and overall vibe more than made up for it. We're already looking forward to our next visit -- and this time, we're not waiting until "next weekend." read more

I found Mojave as I was looking for somewhere to have brunch before a show at Cobb Energy Center. The décor is cute, colorful and picture worthy. I started with an Old Fashioned and I loved the presentation. The server smoked the drink at the table and it really added to the flavor. For an appetizer, I ordered the blue cornbread which we were told was just added back to the menu. I've never seen blue cornbread but it was fluffy and had good flavor. It was supposed to come with some sort of chili butter but I didn't taste any heat in the butter at all. For my entrée, I ordered the Quesadilla smashburger with a side of greens. The burger was basically a smash burger on tortillas instead of a bun but it had great flavor. The server told us the greens were spinach but when it came to the table, it was clearly collard greens. Overall, good experience with tasty food. I'd go back. read more

My best friend lives out here and she's been here a number of times so since we're visiting from California, she said we have to come!! We were in luck that they had a reservation available along with a special seasonal menu!! As we walked in, it was gorgeous with a vignette of a garden that outlook a little lake or river that ran around the backside of the restaurant. I kept gazing out the window, hoping to find deer or some sort of wildlife!! Lol. There's also an upstairs which no one was sitting in, but I could only imagine how beautiful that view would have been! The decor was very elegant and upscale with a modern twist!! My other best friend was able to order an espresso martini with tequila which she was highly excited about because she does not drink vodka. I got a traditional espresso martini with vodka. We ordered the blue corn bread and to our dismay it was rather dry. So we wondered if it was fresh or not. Nevertheless, when we ordered our food, my two best friends got the blue corn waffles and fried chicken and I ordered the salmon eggs Benedict yet I wanted scrambled eggs. I know I know! Scrambled eggs just sounded better for this particular day. Once our food arrived, the waffles seemed dry to both of my friends, and my salmon on my eggs. Benedict was overcooked and dry. Thank goodness, there was avocado and a chipotle aïoli sauce that I could dip into the salmon to juice it up some! My two best friends ended up returning their meals because they couldn't eat the dry waffles and their replacement food, shrimp and grits, as well as barbecue wings and mac & cheese came rather quickly and they loved those dishes!! We also ordered another round of cocktails that were very equally measured. So the taste was there, yet none of us had a buzz from the drinks. Lol. Perhaps it was the food we ordered, but I was not really impressed. I'm not too sure if I'll come back here when I visit Atlanta in the spring, but it was definitely a vibe in the restaurant itself. read more

I came across Mojave after a drive into Sandy Springs and decided that I would try it soon. The exterior was gorgeous and looked like the perfect setting for a brunch/dinner date night. It offers Mexican inspired cuisine and each meal I've had to date has been super flavorful. They offer both interior and exterior seating for guests. The interior is decorated beautifully and as originally stated - is perfect for date night or a meal out with girlfriends. The location offers a decent amount of parking, making it easy for all patrons with different sized vehicles. The service is amazing. Each time I've been by, everyone always goes above and beyond to ensure my party and I have the best experience. I live about 30 minutes away, but will always drive in for Brunch based on the hospitality given here. Mojave also partners with the In-Kind app which allows you to earn app funds for a future visit. If you haven't tried this place out, you need to. read more

Thursday 4pm - I came here to meet a few clients who work nearly ( this was their recommendation) for happy hour , a quick drink before they head home . Nice place , a bit dark ( would make a big difference did its brighter ) with friendly service . Sat by the bar with a group and we were all attended to . Some ordered the chips / guacamole and wings . With the limited orders , can't comment on the full menu but the food was as expected . The outdoors did seem like a better option especially on a nice day . The bar opens up to the outdoors while also connected to the inside of the restaurant . read more

I can now say with 100% confidence, this restaurant is the absolute worse for food and now service in Atlanta. I don't think I've ever thought this about a restaurant, but it just needs to close. It's absolutely awful. I was here with co-workers celebrating, but I would not order any food or cocktails because the strawberry margaritas and our food was TRASH the first time I came. Now this time, the server was nice and engaging when she did come to the table. We then went long periods of time without seeing her to be able to order drinks or food. Then this other guy showed but... never introduced himself. Just a horrible experience again. I never anticipate coming back. Flavorless food and bad, inattentive service... What a waste of a cute space. read more

The ambiance is very nice. The food is 10/10. I like how they make their tortillas in-house. I ordered the fried calamari, grouper taco, & shrimp taco. I also ordered the chicken tenders to go. The breading they use is packed with flavor. The staff had a nonchalant attitude and wasn't quite inviting. read more

I came here after Easter service and ordered things from the brunch menu. Overall, I thought this place had a really great vibe and really delicious food. The drinks were delicious and they did not skimp out on the alcohol. The interior of the restaurant was very nice because it was overlooking a pond. It seemed like there were many families here which was a plus. My only complaint would be that the table was a bit sticky and the cups were placed upside down so it didn't seem super sanitary. Other than that I thought it was a great restaurant and I would come back. The service was also really great! read more

Cliche, but teamwork makes the dream work. Walk in on a busy Saturday night but room at the bar. Colton was my server and did an outstanding job. He made great recommendations as he was knowledgeable about the menu and recent change of direction from leadership. I started with the queso poblano. It was good and flavorful but my biggest feedback it that all the food needs acid and heat to balance the sweet. I get that the heat is different here than the southwest but maybe a heat scale that you offer the customer to ensure heat is at the right level. I asked for hot sauce and that did the trick. The staff was absolutely amazing. They covered each other perfectly. Colton recommended a great margarita (and it was), I wanted a brew with dinner and Keith was right there to not miss a beat while Colton was serving the bar. I noticed Sophia making this cool looking drink, hibiscus margarita and she served that as an after dinner drink. All that service was seamless without any posturing for who was serving. Great things happen when you don't care who gets the credit. I cannot forget that may main course was the chile grilled chicken. It was excellent, falling off the bone good with the perfect amount of char. Same feedback that some heat or heat options would greatly improve the offering. I had a chance to speak with Lana (the boss) to complement her on the service and teamwork. You could tell she cared about their brand and the people. First time here and will return. Good food but the service is some of the best I have seen. Thank You read more

Great location - newest Ray's on The River with spacious parking lot. I went for lunch on a working day. Seems like more people turned up that day unexpectedly so service was little slow but the food compensated it. Nice ambience; even patio seating is available. I tried the salmon salad and Pollo Frito .. Absolutely yummy and prepared truly professionally. Loved the ambience and enjoyed the food. Will definitely come back here. read more

I can't wait to go back, for the scenery, food and margaritas. They have the best watermelon margaritas, I've ever had. Large parking lot, and tucked away by the lake. It is a very open restaurant but allows you to take advantage of the view because of the large windows all around. A great bar. I have to highlight two things. The watermelon margarita w s a great mix. Didn't taste syrupy, beautiful presentation. Now the lamb chops, I didn't order. But it looked enough for a king. I can't wait to go back. Oh and the service. I wish I could remember our server. She was GREAT!!! read more

We have made this a go to when we are in the mood for fresh Latin American food. The Cuban Beef meatballs are delicious-lighter than air and generously sized-delicious starter. Also love the chicken mista salad and the steak salad both fresh and filling with good deep flavor. Their fish tacos on their handheld menu are as also delicious and fresh. The decks are very relaxing for a lazy dinner and their wait staff are super nice. I really recommend this for good authentic tasty food. read more

The app trio was delicious and the calamari were well seasoned! The steak quesdilla was good as well wish I could have added peppers. The ambiance was nice and relaxed for the lunch crowd with affordable pricing. They were short staffed so it took a minute for service but he was attentive when present. I would eat here again! read more

Found this spot because they are still doing bottomless mimosas and I love that. My nephew and I enjoyed the $25 per person bottle served champagne and each picked a different flavor. I'd return just for that to be honest. Brunch is served from 11-4 on the weekends and there wasn't a time limit as far as I know. Our server was very attentive and replaced the bottles in a timely fashion whenever we were out. The only complaint was she was having a hard time opening them, but that's to be expected. We started with the $12 house guacamole and hoped it would be fresh and made table side and although it wasn't it was pretty good and the $5 cornbread churros which my nephew enjoyed. For our entrees I ordered the $25 steak and huevos which came out in a way I've never seen this dish served, but it was pretty good and cooked to my preferred temperature - medium and my nephew liked his $21 cubano also. The restrooms are huge and were clean and there are a lot of stalls. The parking lot is a nice size and free. read more

Lots of good but a Little bland. I would ask for Salsa on it. 3.5 Lots of Vegetarian options. Good for Me Service was a bit slow. Found have been better. Decor was fun and had lots of outside space that would be fun when Warmer than today. I'll be back and try other things next time. read more

Just heard it was closing ... went there once food was food. It's was nice inside. Service was quick.

Food and ambiance were great! 3 girl friends and I went on a Sunday at 6:30 to celebrate my birthday. We only order one cocktail due to the time it took to get the first one. Our waiter's service was mediocre and I'm going to say the same about the bar tender turning out drinks. St one point we asked another waiter passing by to refill our waters. The food was good and 3 out of 4 of us loved our drinks. The 4th drink wasn't bad by any means but did not fully live up to the hype the one who ordered it was expecting. True rating of Mojave is 3.75 if the services can improve. read more

This place has always been a favorite for a good brunch without the "riff raff" most Atlanta brunches can come with. Myself and a couple of friends wanted to catch up on a Saturday and what a better place to enjoy brunch Al fresco, amazing view of the water. We arrived to a shockingly smaller crowd than usual which was more than appreciated. Our waiter Jessica was simply Amazing she was right on with our glassware, keeping drinks poured and perfect eye to watch us throughout conversation and apps just didn't feel constantly interrupted and never rushed. Enjoyed the cornbread churros we had to order twice so good and the honey butter to top it off. The salmon croquettes and although doesn't seem to match the look it doesn't matter ORDER the Pollo frito tostada! It's a delight you will not regret the calories either. read more

"Horrible experience. I ate here several times years ago when it first opened, and it was a completely different experience back then. I brought friends who were visiting from out of town for brunch, and everything went wrong. We waited over an hour for our food, and by the time it finally reached the table, my steak was overcooked, the presentation was lacking, and everything was cold and dry. I do not recommend this place at all." unless you want to be terribly disappointed!! read more

Food was very tasty and the server very nice but just can't justify that kind of expense for lunch and for so little food. Prices are out of control, especially for lunch. They no longer offer any weekday lunch specials. A cheese quesadilla is $13 + $7 more if you want chicken or + $13 more for shrimp. A $20-$26 quesadilla? No way!! My friend had the enchilada plate which was only enchilada, rice and beans. One cheese enchilada for $17 + $3.50 for chicken = $21.50 for 1 enchilada, rice and beans which are pretty cheap fillers. No chips and salsa provided before the meal. Prices were mentioned to "the manager" who said "we've had some menu changes and these are our new prices." I explained I wouldn't be coming back and she was very apathetic. I used to enjoy going for their happy hour specials which are now very lame and drinks costly. Quality can go only so far. I'm out! read more

I decided to treat myself to brunch alone, so I went to Mojave for Sunday brunch. Upon arrival, there's a small fee for valet. I sat at the bar within view of two TVs for viewing Sunday football. I ordered the omelet mariscos with the potato casserole and grits. The omelet was yummy and stuffed with seafood. The grits were delicious. The potato casserole was my least favorite; not my idea of a casserole; it was simply cheese atop of diced breakfast potatoes with peppers and onions. I also tried a red sangria and it was good! I enjoyed the food overall and service was friendly. Before leaving, I saw they offer bottomless mimosas on the weekend. Now, I look forward to returning! read more

I ate pretty late at about 9:08pm my server was PM B and my check#109. This is the second time I've attended the location, bartender or server was very nice friendly and the setting vibe and overall ambience of the venue is great. Unfortunately I am giving 3 stars as I ordered the nachos. When they came out they were plated well and looked amazing, however on first bite I thought these chips are cold, I didn't think to mention it as I thought it is within an hour of closing. Further into the dish (I added pulled pork $6 extra) I finally found what was a tiny piece of meat after searching because it lacked the protein I added very minimal and the meat was even cold not sure if they didn't make it fresh or if it sits in a heating tray of sort and the tray was not on but still giving 3 stars because my first time here was great. Will still go here just maybe not order the nachos. read more

I experienced Mojave Saturday afternoon for my best friend's birthday brunch. It was an excellent experience. They had free self-parking available on site and $5 valet. Once inside, the hostess brought us to our table. Our server, Chase came over to welcome us, introduce himself and grab drink orders. The setting was intimate and comfortable and the volume was perfect for holding conversations and hearing everyone at the table well. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and he made good recommendations. I ordered a guacamole appetizer and split champagne with the group. The guacamole was fresh and flavorful with the warm salted tostadas. For my entree, I had the buttermilk fried chicken. It was so flavorful! I definitely recommend it. The mashed potatoes and gravy were also good. The grilled asparagus needed a touch of salt. At the end of the meal, Chase helped me discretely surprise the birthday girl with her favorite cake, Tres Leches. I decided to order some to go as well, but ended up eating it their since it came with ice cream and did not want it to melt. We enjoyed each other's company with conversation for some time after paying and were not rushed out. The valet staff took a photo of us outside upon my request. Overall, it was a positive experience and I would return. read more

I came here because of a friend's suggestion. The place is nice, it faces the river, clean, spacious, the staff were very nice and engaging. Francisco was our server and he was very pleasant to work with and I even referenced Elf "FRAN-CIS-CO" and he joined on the quote and we began to laugh. He had very good suggestions on what to eat. I ordered enchiladas but they were $30 and they were okay. Nothing to brag about. The tres leches dessert could be a bit more moist with the 3 milks as it is normally but it was okay. The flavor and texture were on point. They offer lamb, salmon and other dishes that are a bit more sophisticated. I ordered the enchiladas as I figured that if they can nail something very typical. Everything else is a home run. The service was good but sometimes a bit slow. I think that it has to do with the waiters having their main section inside and they alternate the patio. I think that it was good but this will not be my first choice to have mexican food. read more

Sat at the bar for brunch and the bottomless mimosas. Joe and Keith were the best bartenders ever. With great recommendations. I was totally in the mood for brunch food but changed based on the recommendations. We had the corn ribs (sauce was excellent and the corn was crispy but also juicy). We split the smash burger quesadillas and each had a single shrimp taco. Chiefs kiss!! Will definitely be back. The atmosphere was cool too (especially bar area on a pretty day). read more

Food: great Ambience: great Service: great This lovely establishment is sitting on the water with a lovely fountain in the back and an sophisticated ambience inside. Please be advised that you have 3 parking options: EXCEPTIONALLY limited free self-parking within the lot onsite, free parking in the overflow lot across the street, and paid valet in front of the restaurant. The food is a good mix of various Latin cuisines with a few southern dishes in the mix - because, let's face it, we're in The South. You must get the blue cornbread. It's a yummy appetizer of 4 finger-sized pieces to get you started and share with another. The menu has a few good pescatarian and vegetarian options. The Plato de verduras is a nice vegetarian option for anyone who prefers no meat. The eggplant rolled with ricotta is good and a unique dish to try. You can't go wrong with any of the cocktails. The whisky cobbler was delicious and refreshing like a liquid dessert, but luckily not too sweet. read more

My friend and I decided to meet up for brunch and we had such a wonderful experience! I've looked at this place a few times, read reviews, but never actually made my way here. I made reservations through OpenTable and I'm so glad I did because when we arrived around 2 on a Saturday afternoon, this place was lively and fullll of people enjoying themselves and a good bit of people waiting for tables. When I walked in, I immediately liked the vibe of the place and really liked the ambiance even for a brunch setting. The hostess greeted me a smile and asked I had reservations and once I let her know that I did she let me know my table would be ready in just a few minutes. No sooner than I sat down, she guided me to the table where I was promptly greeted by our waiter, Brandon. The menu for brunch was full of all sorts of stuff...a Cuban sandwich, breakfast burrito, French toast, salmon croquettes....everything just looked delicious from what ivtead on the menu. Oh and the drink menu was plentiful and I opted for a Rio suave as a mocktail which was so good. There was pineapple, lime juice, and I loved it. I had the seafood omelette and it was hugeeeee. For $21 it came packed with cheese, onions, peppers, spinach, shrimp, crabmeat and it came with this huge fluffy biscuit then I picked the potato casserole which was a bit salty but really good. The inside of the restaurant has huge windows where you can get beautiful views of trees and water that sits behind the restaurant. There were a ton of people inside but the space is pretty open so there's lots of room to move about and I really liked the open space. It's such a cute place! Food was awesome. Service was amazing.

Overall rating: 4.7 I visited here as a tourist 2x and while the quality has changed a tad, the drinks do not disappoint. Must order the margaritas. The first time I went the blue corn bread, was really good. But the second time, not sure. Something was missing. Server was really nice & the atmosphere is really pretty. Guacamole was good, very fresh. The Mojave Benedict was soo good. I'm always concerned with Benedicts that I'll get too full too fast after one bc if the bread, ham, etc. but this one is made on a corn pancake and Serrano ham which is very thin, almost like prociutto. So it was very easy to eat & sit very well in my stomach. Highly recommend! read more

Excellent service! Beautiful place and ambiance. Enjoyed the food and drinks! Will definitely be back there soon.

Definitely disappointed by my Mojave experience. My girlfriend and I came to Mojave for brunch, a party of two. There was a 30 minute wait which was fine, we got some mimosas at the bar and waited. The food was O-K but the service was pretty disappointing. With the pricing of Mojave, I expected elevated service or pretty tasty food, I received neither, which is surprising given the amount of competition in close proximity. Our waitress was nice but her service was not there. She didn't know any answers to our menu questions, she forgot our orders after taking them, our mimosas went empty because no one checked on us. I had heard wonderful things about Mojave but it lived up to none of the hype. Not sure I'll be back. read more
