    Dessert section
    Danielle S.

    We absolutely love this place for their Sunday brunch buffet (11am-2pm). We came here for Easter Sunday and they had a live mariachi band. They have a taco and tortilla station outside while the omelet station, other hot foods and desserts were inside. They always have menudo and pozole, which I love. The variety of foods and desserts are on point and all delicious ( rice,beans, bacon, papas, chili rellenos, shrimp cocktail, cerviche, lengua, veggies, carnitas, birria, taquitos, flan, stuffed churros, macarons, etc). Their waitstaff is always kind and attentative. Their buffet price is about $30 per person including 3 mimosas or $40 per person for unlimited mimosas. I highly recommend their buffet if you get a chance to check out it.

    Came in and was greeted quickly, staff was friendly. Ordered fajitas and a sampler platter. Food was good chicken in my opinion on the fajitas was a little over cooked, but had really good flavor. Restaurant was decorated nicely and had a bunch of TVs to watch sports march madness. Competitive price for food that we had plenty to make another meal out of , we liked their salsa and chips as well.

    Awesome Mexican food with great service. Large venue with lots of TVs to watch sports and the dodgers on! Full bar. Lunch buffet. Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    This is a great brunch location, the selection of food is amazing and very tasty. The staff is friendly, attentive, and welcoming coupled with a vibrant ambiance. We'll be back!

    Always great! Their tamales are my favorite- fresh and moist. Our server was so attentive. The restaurant, is spacious and festive. I highly recommend!

    Looks like they host a lot of events and banquets here. Very lively yet chill Mexican restaurant to try. The customer service is pleasant and table service is prompt. Though, wish they had refilled my water automatically without having to ask. The Taquito Trio was filling and delish, good portion of rice and beans too. My friend got the Empanadas and she enjoyed them. Complimentary side of chips and salsa were solid. Not one of the absolute best Mexican spots I've eaten at, but still satisfies that Mexican food craving.

    This is probably about my 3rd time coming here! My partner and I at this point always love coming here! Stopped by today for some lunch and drinks! Fajitas were bomb! I got the steak, my partner got the chicken, you get a nice big side of rice and beans with your choice of tortilla (corn or flour). You get chips and salsa in the beginning and the waitress was kind enough to bring me some habanero salsa! The waitress also made our drinks and were they perfect!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Villa Catrina!

    Our server was so kind and made great recommendations. The food was authentic and fresh. Complimentary salsa and tortilla chips, the chips were warm and crispy, you can tell it was freshly fried! Overall experience was amazing, we ordered the steak ranchero and the combination plate (I chose pork tamale and chicken enchilada) and I would order the steak ranchero again. I would come back and try other items but everything was tasty!

One time I ordered 4 tacos, 1 burrito, a drink and churros and it took them longer than 25 minutes to be ready. The people who dined in that were behind me in line were served first. This defeats the purpose of takeout... also they burnt the heck out of my churros and still have them to me like that. Their employees are rude especially the girl with the fake red hair. She' s vulgar talking to coworkers instead of customers and a rude attitude. She was rude with an attitude when asked her about drink prices (not on the menu) and a question about the salsa bar . She made me feel like I was a bothering her after spending over $50 in their establishment. The way she behaves makes you think she owns the business. Another thing is that they don't listen or pay attention to your order. Both in person and for delivery they end up messing up your order. It was simple no onions on 3 tacos and they always mess up my son's food. Now I have an angry and hungry little kid on top of the experience. I keep going back because their food is good and kind of hope to have a better experience. I don't I'll go back, it's a shame but it's not worth it anymore. Gave this place many chances to support a small business but they don't reciprocate the love back. This place could be a 5 star but their employees hinder the restaurant back from being that.

Everything looked so clean, well-organized, and inviting. The restaurant itself is lovely, with plenty of seating for a party of one or many. There is ample space for special occasions, a large bar area, a large dining room, clean bathrooms, and AMAZING staff. Every single employee welcomed us to the restaurant. Employees were very friendly, polite, hard-working, and engaging. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the "Martha Salad" while my wife had the Pozole Verde. Both were delicious, perfectly made, very tasty, and filling. The chips and salsa were so good that we ordered a second serving, which is rare for us.

The margaritas were honestly some of the worst we've had -- they tasted like straight margarita mix blended with ice, and we could barely drink them. The enchiladas were also very underwhelming, especially for the price. It was basically shredded chicken in tortillas with sauce, rice, and beans, and for $20 it just wasn't worth it. The food tasted very Americanized and lacked authentic Mexican flavor and seasoning. That being said, the customer service was amazing. The two ladies who helped us were incredibly attentive, kind, and kept checking on us. They offered extra drinks and multiple items, which we normally appreciate because when we go to Mexican restaurants we usually order multiple rounds and end with Cadillac margaritas. Unfortunately, the drinks were so bad we didn't want to order anything else, but their effort and service did not go unnoticed. One small disappointment was when I asked for hot sauce to add more flavor to my green sauce enchiladas, and I was brought the same red enchilada sauce instead, which made the meal worse. I am a food and beverage manager myself, and I can honestly say I would hire those two servers in a heartbeat because they were fabulous. The service was excellent -- it's just the food and drinks that really need improvement.
