La Mina is absolutely stunning! The ambiance is warm, inviting, and beautifully designed—perfect for a night out. I had the mole enchiladas, they were SO delicious! Their happy hour menu is a great value. The cocktails were impressive, strong and delicious, they did not disappoint! The music added to the live atmosphere. I highly recommend this spot for a girls’ night or even a date night. Overall, a great experience, and I can’t wait to go back!

The decor and setup before you enter is photo-op ready! The inside is also beautiful. It has an "in the cut" vibe! I took one star away from the smell and restrooms. The restaurant smelled like Sewer mixed with bathroom cleaner. I don't know what was going on with that, but that was the first thing that took me aback. Once you were in there for a minute, it kind of dissipated. The restrooms were all gross. I don’t know if someone was sick or what, but they weren't cleaned well. I went in early January as we wanted to catch the Christmas pop-up. I arrived around 6:30 pm on a Friday, and no one was there except two people at the bar. One more couple showed up around 7, but that was it for the time we visited. Our waitress was friendly and well-informed about the menu. The bacon-wrapped jalapeño peppers were muy caliente but delicious, as well as the chips and salsa. The cheese dip could have been much thinner, as it was thick and got cold pretty fast, and my margarita was pretty tasty. I didn't care for my entree, which was the taco plate.

The places + entrance is very well designed and adorned! Very good place to go as a couple for drinks with some Latin music. Cons: empty for the first three hours, literally just 15 people in the last hour. If you don’t mind this, I will recommend!

Just an opinion some people may enjoy this place more than we did plus we did not go to the back so this is just a review of the restaurant portion. The Portion of ceviche left more to be desired but was ok not sure if I like salmon chunks for that specific dish (which were good but was not expecting that). The vibe and music of the place was amazing. Many photo / Insta moments in there. Service was good We got the carne asada which was 52 dollars. Not sure what type of beef they used but it was alright, the salsa is just puree water, no flavor or spice to speak of. Also ordered a form of charro beans which unfortunately was not good ( it had too much going on to be beans if you know what I mean, also had a lot of lime and I love lime but not like that.) we had to send it back because we were not going to eat it. The server was great about it and took it off the ticket. But the tortillas were on point so that's good ig. In conclusion this restaurant is another example of putting too much on dishes that do not need it. Note: I heard that they are working on the menu so hopefully they can just perfect simple dishes instead of trying to give me a new take on dishes that are well known already. They can get away with just some refried beans, normal rice, with some meat to make my taco with how amazing the place looks inside! We'll come back at some point to try again and hopefully give this place 5 stars!

Came here for a Ladies Night and had an enjoyable time! You can park in the parking garage (for a fee and use their wifi if your service is a little wonky). This restaurant/lounge is Latin and offers an array of Latin food and drink options. With it being so busy, the customer service was still great and attentive! I ended up ordering two tacos - Shrimp and Carnitas. They were bite sized and come with onions, cilantro. While I did enjoy them, I added some of the house salsa just for a little extra flavoring. I also ordered the guacamole and thoroughly enjoyed the fresh herbs and spices throughout! For drinks, I ordered the Simpatia por el Diablo and it was really a fresh tasting drink. I also ordered a bar made drink - strawberry and pineapple mixed - and loved it! They offered salsa dancing and I had a wonderful time learning! If you’re looking to have a good time, stop by here!

Free parking garage- no cover on a Saturday. DJ played a mix of music but could do better by playing more recent music. People started dancing more by 11:30pm 👌🏽

Omg what a gem! Finally a nice place that has typical Mexican dishes. First off, it is a bit hidden since it’s underneath the hotel in the village. Follow the path to the signs of the restaurant. FYI-If you park in the parking garage they don’t validate parking. First we were given chips and salsa that we loved. They tasted fresh and salsa was yummy. For drinks we got the HH margarita- I recommend on the rocks than frozen. I also got the tamarindo en mi mente which was delicious! For an appetizer we got the tlayuda de barbacoa and omg it was DELICIOUS! My husband was really surprised since we felt like we were back in Mexico. ❤️ We also ordered the carne asada which was just as delicious. They serve it over a white bean with a salsa macha de pepitas and they serve it HOMEMADE corn tortillas. Which is always appreciated!! Thank you! We were so stuffed we got the rest to go since we HAD to try a dessert and opted for the chocoflan and boy did we love it!! Our waiter was super helpful when we asked about items on the menu and we asked about the speakeasy bar but he said they are only open Thurs-Sat. We hope to come back and check that out as well since they seem to offer more cocktails on their speakeasy menu. Overall we loved our experience since the food was on point (mad props to the chef 👏🏼) drinks were delicious and the dining area was super clean, as well as the restrooms. Will be coming back for sure!!

We stopped in early and quickly today for happy hour, and everything was great! I had the house margarita and the guacamole and enjoyed both tremendously. The inside space is dimly lit and perfect for a date. The patio is spacious and has a great view of the village. I would highly recommend La Mina for a romantic evening or girls night. Yum!

Food: 8.7/10 Service: 8/10 Ambiance: 9/10 Where do I begin? Because it's rare for me to find a place that I can brag on for food AND for aesthetic/atmosphere. The underground restaurant truly has an amazing dim lit intimate layout upon immediate entry and has dual spaces for dining or event hosting. Good Mexican food is hard to come by in Dallas. It's either Tex-Mex, Mexican or fusion. I would categorize the cuisine as elevated fusion Mexican. The tacos and the short rib were absolutely DELISH! Can't go wrong with any meat selection or fish meal because it tasted rich in flavor and fresh in quality. I will definitely be back for private/group dining!! Loved it.

Come to La Mina for the vibes, the drinks, and the friendly service. But, I would suggest you not come hungry. The food is a bit overpriced and not the most flavorful. There's too many good taco options in the DFW area that the tacos I ordered fell flat in flavor. I've been to La Mina a few times for the Friday night salsa party, and it is ALWAYS packed, but so much fun. I recently tried to eat dinner there, and the place was empty. Our waitress was friendly, and she was attentive to my table without hovering too much. La Mina is definitely a place to check out for drinks and a fun time only.

Dallas Restaurant in a Parking Garage?! This hot NEW spot is hidden in the bottom of a parking garage in Dallas, TX. Take an elevator down the lowest level, and prepared to be blown away by the aesthetics in and outside the restaurant. The Mexican-inspired menu and intimidate setting is also why this restaurant is a must visit. Fun fact! There's a speakeasy bar inside a freezer that's only open over the weekend. We went on a Thursday night and tacos were $5 (excluding speciality) and there was Salsa dancing lessons after 8 pm. How fun!

I definitely do recommend this place although I'm not the hugest fan of their food. The best thing on the menu is the Carne Asada but it's the priciest thing on the menu. The vegetables that come along with are great. It's a restaurant until 10 PM and then it turns into a nightclub. There's also a "secret" speakeasy in the back that's only open on Friday and Saturday nights. Make sure to get the password from someone to get in. The ambience is pretty cool very desert like decorations. Staff is super nice to and very helpful and attentive. Don't worry about making reservations because the restaurant is pretty empty during dining hours even on the weekends. Fun plays, but I would recommend sticking with the margarita or beer or wine because they're mixed drinks really did not taste too great. Stick with what you know. We will definitely go back as that Carne Asada was pretty darn good.

We came during happy hour time. It's was dead in there but at night! Oh my goodness!! The vibes were unmatched. Lots of dancing, good energy. Lots of Latin/Spanish vibes. We had a really great time. They werent possessive with the tables, service was great. The inside has beautiful decor. There is a dress code. Bouncer was cool about it. Can't wait to go back. Great crowd of people. Wasn't interested in the food, over priced.

We went to La Mina after seeing a viral reel talking about how good the food is at this hidden underground restaurant... which apparently closed the kitchen and operates now only as a nightclub, a change which had taken effect only a few days prior. Even the staff didn't know this change was coming. That was really a bummer. This place isn't easy to find. There is one tiny sign directing you to the underground parking garage, but the other *permanent* signage has no such indication. We missed it the first time and initially drove around the whole district trying to find it. The ambiance is really cool and has a cozy, romantic, almost speakeasy vibe and is of a proper volume to converse with friends. And upon perusing a drink list, a couple of cocktails caught my eye, but at ~$15 each and with no food offerings, we left to go find dinner first, thinking we may come back. Had they had food, we would definitely have stayed for dinner and also ordered a few cocktails. The bartender sent us up to the ground floor to the only restaurant that was open, and it was a sports bar that had fantastic looking food but was so loud (like shouting-at-the-person-next-to-you loud as they had multiple TVs and a DJ) and overcrowded, we just gave up decided to move on from the area altogether. Unfortunately, I cannot see a reason to go back. I feel like this quirky location and cute ambiance, not to mention extremely limited other evening dining options in walking distance, had a better chance as a restaurant but maybe the 20-something crowd is more into it as a bar.

I cannot say enough about this place. It is truly a hidden gem. I went on Saturday for my Birthday and the whole place is such a vibe. The music was on point, the atmosphere was chill yet fun. I danced for hours. I will definitely be back!

My friend and I ate here during one of their comedy nights and the food was soo good! I had the enchiladas with mole *cheifs kiss*. Everything was perfect and flavorful. And our server Dee was amazingly sweet and kind. She checked on us frequently even though it was pretty crowded. She still managed to make us feel like VIP guests. We'll defiantly be back. Thank you, Dee!

Solid speakeasy place. The vibes are excellent here. The inside and outside of the bar are wonderfully decorated. The food is pretty good here. They also have dancing here on Thursdays, which adds to the festivity. Service is quick and friendly.

You have to pay to leave as they do not validate parking. It costed me $3 to leave the garage. The inner lower bar had no one to let people in so people were just knocking until somehow they were let in by workers. The vibe was cool though. Drinks were good. An automatic 18% gratuity was added to the tab.

The ambiance and vibe of this place was AMAZING! We went here for a couple of drinks and dinner. The drinks were really fancy and most of them we had were really good. However in terms of food - they actually had a very limited menu for dinner and we did not have a lot of options to eat from. But - thing you must have there is their cake - just too good!

Stopped by and sat at the bar for a drink, so I can't give it a full review. I would love to come back to try the food. I love the aesthetics of the place, very beautiful and dark. They had skulls and candles everywhere. Our drinks were good, the bartenders were friendly, and I want to come back for more.

Not great for dinner, maybe for a night out yes. Visited with my husband on a Sat night for dinner and drinks. Reservations were easy to make and when we were running late, they assisted me over the phone to hold a table for us. Their decor is beautiful and staff is pleasant We were quickly informed that WiFi is not very reliable due to being underground but that we needed to scan a barcode on the table to open the menu. They should reconsider having printed menus. Their food and alcohol selections are overpriced, and their menu selections are very limited. We ordered the plantain & the ceviche appetizers and they were tasty. The ceviche was more like a sashimi sushi dish. My husband had their lamb chop over beans dish @$34.00 (he enjoyed it but it was very simple) and I had 2 tacos which were tiny and $7.00 each. They only had 1 wine option for red and white and a small selection of tequila. At least this is what our server mentioned. I think in the future, if we return, it will be after we have dinner somewhere else and return for their music. They do have a great dj and the ambiance is nice.

Two stars only because I had a good time with the people I was there, service terrible, slow and forgetful, food I don't even know what to say less than okay. They have 5-6 things to offer on a menu. We went for a salsa night so at least I had fun dancing, otherwise definitely do not recommend and will not be returning

Came back to this place to only be disappointed ..they no longer have the Tlayuda de barbacoa. Which is such a shame because it was the best thing I had last time. Now I don't know if it's worth coming back, maybe just for drinks. Tried the speakeasy this time which was cool if you want a cocktail that is not offered in the main restaurant.

The food is amazing here!!! The chicken tacos are full of flavor. The carnitas are the best I have ever had! The green sauce is the icing on top for your food. The best menu item though is the refried beans!!! The bartenders are very friendly and the drinks yummy. You will not be disappointed!

Greasy tacos, came on a Saturday night for a bachelorette party (friend reserved table in advance) and we lacked service. Drinks were finished and server barely came around. Took 15 mins to get one margarita and the place wasn't even busy.

A hidden gem in the parking garage - La Mina is an experience all its own. From drinks and food to dancing, they set created a fun date night spot or a girl nights out. Try the guac - thank me later. Past the initial restaurant and bar area is a speakeasy and patio that has a more intimate feel.

I went to La Mina recently, and enjoyed their "sip and paint" with Kayla! She was so much fun and let us all get creative with our painting of Dia de muertos skulls. Highly recommend La Mina and joining their sip and paint and other events.

I attended the sip & paint event on their one year anniversary of re-open. The ambiance was so charming! There were about 30 people at the event which was perfect for an intimate date night and mingle with new friends. We painted sugar skulls and had a complimentary margarita with our ticket. I look forward to attending the next sip & paint there!

Super cool place!!! It's a hidden spot I have to share...literally like a secret club with the entrance in an underground parking garage! And the food is phenomenal! Brayden and Daniel took great care of us! Had the empanadas for an appetizer...some of the best I have had...and the Branzino rivals any high end restaurants offering in the Dallas area. Service was spot on. Looking forward to going back and bringing all our friends!

Really interesting establishment with some fun quirks! Manager and Staff were very friendly. There was some confusion on all of our part upon arrival but we were seated right away. I saw some reviews saying the chips were not crispy, but we didn't have that problem. The salsa wasn't spicy by any means, but it also wasn't sweet like some reviews mentioned. Drinks were all good, the food was good but definitely a higher price point than I would expect for what you get. (2 enchiladas, rice and beans were $17 at time of review, house marg $8, hibiscus marg $13) The real treasure of La Mina is the speakeasy. Highly recommend the electric margarita (prickly pear drink $13)... it comes with instructions you'll just have to find out about when you go! The room only holds about 20 people at a time, and it's just all around a fun experience. Leann rocked the service in there too

Nice comment on my last review, but I forgot to email them and ended up wandering in on a whim after dinner at Meridian late one Friday evening. So, no free margaritas in this review. That said, there shouldn't have been ANY margaritas in this review. But here's what happened: 1. We walked up to the hostess stand and asked if we could get in the speakeasy (Apatito). She said there was a 45- to 60-minute wait, but we could have a drink at the bar in the restaurant while we waited. The restaurant was empty...just a few tables seated...and we were the only people at the bar for a while. I ordered La Ciudad, their mezcal Manhattan...always solid. 2. After about 30-45 minutes, I went back to the hostess and asked if we could get in yet. She said yes, so we closed out and headed back there...only to find that the speakeasy ALSO was practically empty (see photo). This really annoyed me, because we could have been drinking much more interesting drinks back there while we were just forced to sit at the bar for the sake of making it LOOK like the place was in high demand? 3. What saved the evening (and made this two stars, not one star) was that the bartender back there was this spunky woman who was just great. And she made some great drinks (see photos). However... 4. Last call was just after midnight. I mean, okay...I shouldn't be out that late anymore anyway, sure. But this meant we only had time for one drink. (Again, we WOULD have had time for two drinks if we hadn't been forced to waste half an hour at the restaurant bar first.) I'd go back for the bartender and the drinks, IF I'm in the area and IF I'm feeling patient (i.e., willing to be lied to about a wait). But frankly, I just sort of find myself hoping that the bartender finds a better gig. Or maybe she likes the slowness. If I lived here, I'd definitely wander over regularly and try to make myself known well enough to get in without being forced to wait. However, the speakeasy is only open Friday and Saturday evenings, so...it's just really hard to casually drop in if you don't live in The Village. It's also probably really hard for a speakeasy with such limited hours to get any word-of-mouth interest in a city where we have so many speakeasies that are open seven days a week. I get that staffing is tight right now...I just wonder if La Mina (and their Apatito speakeasy) maybe opened prematurely and would have been off to a stronger start if they were more fully staffed.

A glass exploded in my hand. They replaced my drink. That's all. Their queso is subpar, salsa is great. I don't know how anything else is because i couldn't eat after the glass exploded. And they didn't care and my husband paid the tab like an idiot. Couldn't be less impressed. Their hostess was also rude. Overall i wouldn't recommend at all. Mediocre food and even worse service.

We came in for date night. Super cute venue tucked under the Drake hotel. The service, once they figured out who our server would be, was stellar. The music here is very loud even during the dinner hour but at least it was a good play list. We absolutely loved the shrimp cocktail and the mole dish. My soup was odd and not something I'd order again. Dessert was arroz con leche and it was delicious. Will likely come back with friends to go back to the speakeasy because it's one of the few proper speakeasies in the city and had amazing cocktails. If they can work out a few kinks with flow of service, this place has great potential.

We went there last week because we thought the concept sounded cool. Who wouldn't want to dine in a "mine" with a speakeasy?? The food was just ok. The service was terrible. We must have waited twenty minutes to place our order and waited even longer to finally get our food and drinks. When we asked about the speakeasy, we were told that we had to be given the secret code by our server but that they weren't just supposed to offer it up to everyone... Then we started noticing pretty much everyone else was being let in. By the time they decided to give us the "code" there was a two hour wait for the speakeasy. We will obviously not be going back and don't recommend anyone does either.

Literally a waste of my time and money. I went to La Mina expecting, at the very least decent food and mediocre service. I was highly disappointed. The food was lukewarm, under seasoned, and plated like it was being served to barn animals. When I complained to the server he said that his manager Anthony would come over and "take care of it." Anthony came over and was dismissive, arrogant, and just didn't seem to care that we were dissatisfied with our food. He responded without any empathy or emotion and is just too narcissistic to work in the food industry or customer service. He appeared annoyed that he had to talk to us and at that point, I was over it. We just paid, tipped the server (he was great) and decided to never come back.

This place was such a disappointment. Having tried a few of the other spots at the village, I was hoping this would be on par with the rest. It was not. We made reservations and got seated immediately . We loved the spot they gave us as we got a good view and feel for the place. Now once seated, to get acknowledged took way too long. It almost felt like we were invisible with the number of times we got walked passed. Once someone did come, we ordered a couple drinks and also asked for water. What's funny is the drinks came before our water did. I am not exaggerating but it was almost 20 minutes before water was brought. Chips and salsa also took forever to be given to us which in the end was fine as their salsa was on the sweeter side with no kick. We ordered the "Mexican pizza" and guacamole to start with. Those were pretty good. Entree wise, not impressed at all with the pork shoulder and chicken enchiladas. I had initially inquired about the market fish and the response received was "oh I think it's something called fluke but I don't do seafood so yeah". Ok great, I understand if you don't like seafood but as a server, you should know the menu. If not, go ask, not a big deal. I was shocked at this. They also messed up on my order by giving it to someone else. Also, why is the plantains mixed in rice yet listed deceiving as it's own thing on the menu with other entrees. Also, where is the home made tortilla for the pork shoulder as stated on the menu - yeah we never got that. We decided to pass on dessert as the food was not good. Also, we never got water when we asked her for more (when we ordered our 2nd drink with our entrees) Now the speakeasy part. We asked if we could go and the host kinda looked at us like a deer in headlights. She eventually said it's full and we needed to be put on a list. Ok great, we had dinner here with the intentions of going here but no one shared this. We asked to be put on the list, which was in front of her and asked if they'd text us. Her responses were rude and safe to say, I would not recommend this place. Also, if you guessed it, we put our name on the waitlist at 8:30 or so... never got a text. What a waste of space in the village and a waste of money for subpar food and service.

$45 BRUNCH?? I can list everything they had on their catering foldable plastic tables. Two types of hotel scrambled eggs, flour and corn tortillas, shredded beef, little shrimps, bean caldo, and taco toppings. That's literally it. Y'all want a brunch that's $19 less per person and has 5x the options? Blue Mesa. Or literally anywhere else. Place was empty too, sad overall.

I have been coming to La Mina since I got to Dallas in November of last year. It is always been a village local favorite and the food is very appetizing. The drinks are strong and well-made. Service is usually pretty good also. The cute speakeasy in the fridge definitely adds to the flare. Since they have re-branded and re-opened, the Decour is a lot more elaborate, which is nice. You have to enter through the garage, which is pretty convenient. whether you sit inside at a table, the bar, or the outside patio, there is a beautiful aesthetic. Now, I get to the part where I have to pick a part the menu. Before the reopening, they had a torta on the menu that was delectable to say the least. Probably the best thing they had on the menu was that sandwich. It would show up on the late night menu and then became more of a secret menu item. Me and my roommate would show up sporadically through the week begging for them to add this to the menu. I don't think too many people even knew about this menu item to be honest. There were other good options on the menu before they reopened, but now it feels more like a tapas style menu. I would argue some of the items are over priced, and once you piece a full meal together, you are paying a pretty penny. I'm not sure why the menu keeps changing so much when there was nothing wrong with it to begin with. I feel like this establishment will always be a nice hidden gem, but until they bring that special Mexican sandwich back to the menu it is good for drinks at best. The service is still good and I am sure when it is lively on the weekends, It is one of the best places to be in Dallas. It is just disappointing to be told that some thing that you love dearly will be returning on the menu just to find out that it's not. That was literally one of the only food items that was worth the money and the most delicious offering they had.

LA MINA may occupy the same space under the DREY HOTEL, and even have the same name, but they're bringing a whole new vibe. The creativity, surprise and amazement of their new entrance is something I think everyone should enjoy firsthand, so I'll hold back on sharing those photos, but you'll definitely take many. For those who've enjoyed La Mina over the years, Fyi, they've transitioned from Mexican to Latin, however the layout and bar are still familiar, and you'll appreciate the new complements to decor, cuisine and entertainment. La Mina is a wonderful place to chill, and grab delicious Latin bites with friends during the week, but be ready for a hyped party vibe, weekends, because they're offering Latin flavors and beats on a grand scale for a sexy & diverse audience. if you're one of the lucky few you may even get to enjoy their clandestine speakeasy. See you there, and everywhere! Xoxo Lorenzo!

The atmosphere is good, the only Big issue here it is extremely hot at this place. It's been a couple fridays my friends and I end up leaving the place earlier than anticipated because we feel like passing out, shame on them because the DJ and music are fabulous, also cocktails and staff, but not even many drinks can calm the hotness and sweat. I wish they have A/C here. My friends and I decided not to come here after such a bad experience with the heat. I drove 41 minutes every Friday to have a great time but I go home cover on sweat

The food was horrible, we order the carne asada 52-55 bucks to taste burnt skillet! Also we order the guacamole that was fresh and good taste. The area was great the service was slow The Dj there suck! He didn't know how to mix the song and didn't match any of the song hot mess! The dance lessons and dance floor was fun! Little hot but Gladly the family made it better and more fun but I wouldn't go back there, not for a date night or gathering! Not good for a full star more like half of it PSA! Eat somewhere before coming here! That for sure

I really wanted to love this place. All the good things about it like the dance class were over shadowed by the SLOWWWW service. And when I say slow I mean the slowest I've ever had. For food we can wait but the drinks were a 20 min wait and our party was the only table in the place! I had to remind our server multiple times about our drinks it was an experience and not the best one. The people were nice but we won't be going back. If their bar and servers tighten up this place could be a hit!

We had a reservation for the weekend, our evening started a little off because we were asked to sit on the most uncomfortable little tables and our utensils kept on falling off. When the food arrived, there wasn't enough space for everything we needed in the table. As for the food, I ordered a carne asada, the meat was super salty l, wasn't able to finish it and way too pricey for what this was. Not lying, stick to your street carne asada instead if you're getting this. After everything we decided to order desserts, I chose the seasonal flan, it had flavor. However, the consistency is exactly like those from a box. If you were looking for a flan similar to a Cheesecake, you'll be disappointed. The portion was small for its cost. The place is nice in general and the service wasn't bad, but not the best menu.

Eat dinner elsewhere and just come here for the dance floor. Service is terrible. Food is overpriced. $7 for one greasy taco with no sides. Our server filled our water cups on initial greet and never again. Then tried to apply a 20% gratuity for large party and an 18% auto gratuity on top of that. Absurd. Thank goodness for the DJ and good company.

We arrived yesterday for our 8 pm reservation and the restaurant was closed. It was a very unfortunate experience and I will not be trying to attend again. we called many times and no answer. The restaurant cancelled our reservation at 10:30 PM 2.5 hours after our reservation.

Terrible absolutely terrible. I was waiting for the restroom with my best friend and I locked once at the bathroom door and a man came and put his hands on my best friend and pushed her to where she lost balance and we were escorted out for sticker up for ourselves and trying to "handle him" the best we could in the moment. I am very umm pleased and very hurt from this experience. I am truly disgusted and much more with this, a grown ass man should never put his hands on a women for any thing. Don't ever go here. After we explained our situation we were then escorted out by door man which was very unreasonable. Anyways if you ever get assaulted by a man in this restaurant you won't get any grace. You will get escorted out. Absolutely disgusting.

Went with some friends on a whims. Food was over priced and service was slow even though it wasn't busy. On top of this they only had one beer option. It's more of a pop up night club. I won't eat there again.

Good ambiance and the servers are very attentive. I loved the skull painting event in the patio.

Came from Miami on a girls trip and loved this spot!!! The ambiance was really nice and the Latin music was great! Our experience was made even better by our bartender Brayden! He was so friendly and welcoming and did a great job! So nice coming from a different city and feeling so welcomed by the staff!

I had dinner at the Mina last night. When we get there, I was surprised there were a lot of empty tables on a Saturday night, no wonder why... My friends and I didn't like the food. It was expensive for the food portions. The tacos were tiny and the salsa was not spicy at all. The service was slow and bad. Our waitress didn't check on us or ask us if we liked the food or needed something for the table. We had to ask her to bring more salsa and lemons She did bring two little containers with salsa in it for a table of 5 people.

I've become a frequent visitor of La Mina over the past couple of months and I have to say, every time I have nothing short of a good time. The drinks are delicious, with my favorite being the Te Quiero Mucho. The food is amazing ever since they rolled out the new menu. I've tried most items at this point, and I have to say that the short rib mole is my favorite. It's a nice spot to bring a date or to just hangout and enjoy some Latin flavors and music.

They were being racist towards me, did not let me in because of dress code but literally let someone in with the exact same outfit in after me.
