Atmosphere & Ambience
Mex in Bloomfield Hills delivers a vibrant, inviting setting with modern décor and artful touches. The patio seating is comfortable, and transitioning outside was quick and effortless, thanks to the attentive staff. The restaurant’s upbeat energy sets the tone for a joyful and relaxed dining experience.
Appetizers
We began our lunch with the house Chips accompanied by two salsas: the Very Hot Arbol XX and the mild Verde. Both impressed, with the Arbol packing real heat and the Verde offering a fresh balance. The Classic Guacamole was another highlight—exceptionally fresh, creamy, and perfectly seasoned. The Crispy Shrimp appetizer that followed was expertly prepared with a satisfying crunch and flavorful spices.
Drinks
Our drink journey showcased Mex’s inventiveness behind the bar. I enjoyed a Frozen Margarita—refreshing and vibrant—while my girlfriend had the Mexcoloada, which brought a creamy, tropical flair to the meal. For a final round, she ordered a Pretty in Pink and I tried the Berry Passionate; both cocktails were beautifully crafted, full of unique flavors, and capped our lunch perfectly.
Main Dishes
For the main course, I chose the Steak Smothered Burrito, a generously portioned dish bursting with bold flavors and tender steak. My girlfriend had the Fajita, customized with steak, chicken, and shrimp—all cooked to perfection, sizzling, and well-seasoned. The generous portions and harmonious flavors made each bite memorable.
Service
Service at Mex was a clear standout. Our hostess, Laura, ensured our table was pristine and accommodated our request to sit outside. She also kept us informed about current specials and upcoming events. Our waitress, Angie, was exceptionally attentive, knowledgeable, and gave excellent menu recommendations, elevating our meal with her thoughtful guidance.
