Takeout review! I…read morewas craving some nachos and stumbled upon this place. Well, I'm so glad that I did because the food speaks for itself! El Bacho Nachos with grilled chicken. These nachos were DELICIOUS! The nachos cheese sauce took it over the top but the other toppings and the grilled chicken were all chefs kiss! It's the kind of nachos that you want to share but you're also enjoying too much to share. Al pastor taco with spiced pork and pineapple on a soft taco. This was FANTASTIC! The pineapple helped cool down the heat from the spiced pork but both flavors were perfectly paired together. Delicious! Overall both of my items were excellent. Not sure how it looks in person but the goal is now to visit and grab some more of their nachos and tacos. Packaged well for delivery with a few sauces on the side and a coupon for the next order. I'm a new fan! I love a good nachos and tacos so I was happy to stumble upon this.

Happy hour review I…read moresit at the bar and the service is great! Even got to chat with the chef once while it was slow which was cool. The happy hour food options are filling and affordable. Drink options are standard but you can get a variety of marg flavors which is nice and different than what most places offer. It has one of the later happy hours ending at 7 which I love. You don't have to sneak out of work early to catch it lol. It can get packed so go early!

Steak tacos: These were enjoyed and the rice & beans were tasty. Chips and salsa trio: Tricolor chips which is a nice touch. The green salad was my favorite. There is a chili crisp "salsa" that is very similar to Chinese chili crisp sauce. This was unexpected and interesting, but I prefer the classic green salsa. Churros: Crispy, fluffy, and sweet. These were really good. The chocolate sauce really enhanced the experience as well. We also really enjoyed our spicy palomas, draft beers, and G&T's. Out server was very nice and attentive.

There was no wait. I was helped right away. The order was ready at the ready time, the employee was friendly, the contents were secure, and the food was neatly packaged. The birria tacos were superb--well seasoned, not overly salty, cooked to perfection, a good balance of flavor, yellow plain rice and lemon wedge on the side, and a delicious sauce for dipping. Chef's kiss. Looking forward to my next visit!

Visited Joy for dinner and was overall happy with the experience. Service was nice though maybe…read morecould have been slightly more attentive given that there were only 3 parties in the restaurant. Drinks and dessert were stellar!!! Ordered tequenos and the peri peri cauliflower as starters. They brought out a half cauliflower head, which was kind of annoying to eat especially since it wasn't cooked through and was a pain to cut with a butter knife. Tequenos were fine, but $18 for 5 small tequenos is robbery. The meal was overpriced generally. Had the lamb ragu, joy prawns, and coconut seafood rice. All good dishes. Would have preferred slightly larger portions for the price and the fact that it was generally carb+protein. No veggie Probably won't visit again, but wouldn't say others shouldn't go. Would be nice for a happy hour because we loved the drinks

Up front this place is not cheap. We also were charged 22% auto gratuity…read more Service is extremely slow, half of us didn't have utensils when the food came out. Our bill was $160 for fries, salmon tiraditos, steak frites (42), seafood coconut rice, lemonade (5, maker have forgotten to mix in sugar so we just had lemon juice?), and the 7 reasons old fashioned (19). My steak was actually pretty good. The seafood coconut rice however was undercooked, we didn't get our dishes until almost an hour after ordering so maybe they had kitchen issues. It took so long we just ate the raw rice with seafood because we ain't waiting another hour. The seafood was very good. The regular old fashioned is better than the 7 reasons old fashioned. Imo they need to get block ice, this is made with regular cubes which melts very fast and gets watery. Best dish for me was the steak, it was very nicely seared. Not very busy on a Saturday night, very nice classy date vibes indoors. Our group sat on the patio, total bill was around 750 for 7 adults 3 toddlers.

Last night was the first time we ordered via their website and when we went to pick it up, they were very backed up. It was, however Cinco de Mayo so, very understandable about how busy they were. Our order was very delayed and we ended up canceling it; we were disappointed, but the manager was very nice. Did not dispute the refund and gave us a gift certificate to make up for the inconvenience. It's hard to find a business that will own up to its mistake and make it right for the customer.

The restaurant validates parking for two hours at the parking garage. (If you linger longer than two hours, parking is $8) The food is delicious. Our server let me try a few sauces when I was undecided about which one I wanted on my burrito. The flavors. The plating. The decor. It's all great. The place gets noisy. We visited for lunch and had such a great time that we lingered until dinner was being served. No one rushed us out. Our water was being refilled even after we paid the bill. The tiles are beautiful.

The tortilla soup was fresh, flavorful, and comforting, loaded with crispy tortilla strips, creamy toppings, and just the right amount of spice. You can truly taste the freshness in every spoonful.

Bonus points for their cute happy hour, which makes it an even better spot to unwind after a long day. Between the fresh food, great drinks, and relaxed vibe, Gringos & Mariachis is a solid go-to for good Mexican-inspired comfort food and cocktails. I'd absolutely come back again
