Mixé

They have a covered and heated patio that is an excellent place to enjoy a meal, even on a cold winter night. The food was delicious and everybody who worked there was great, so we'll definitely be going back. Nice cocktails too!

Ugh, I really have to get this review off my chest. We knew this restaurant space as Calavera and we used to really enjoy it. It is super sad to have had such a bad experience at - now - Mixe. This year, Valentine's Day fell on a Friday so my husband tried to do the right thing and made a reservation weeks in advance. Our reservation was for 7:45PM and we knew things would be crazy, so we arrived at 7:30PM. When we arrived, we saw it was busy and told the host "It's okay. We'll wait at the bar". The host promised us she would find us when our table was ready but she looked confused and uncertain. Well. 8:00PM rolled around, and I started to notice people getting seated who arrived after us. My husband went to the host and asked what was happening, and she told us not to worry because we saw there was a table being actively cleaned. My husband waited off to the side, as she continued seating people who arrived after us. Finally, as the table she promised us was finally prepped.... she went and sat somebody else!!!! My normally calm, jovial husband was losing it. He approached her again and asked her what happened, and the host looked bewildered and apologized. Thankfully (not thankfully?), we were WELL past the dinner rush and we finally got seated at an empty table at 8:10PM. We didn't get water until nearly 8:30PM, and we were both so frustrated by the experience that we decided to hurry up and order and get the heck out. The food was also a mixed bag. The Molcajete had good flavors and good portions, but we also ordered the Rib Eye, which was extremely confusing. The server asked how we wanted the Rib Eye, and I replied "Medium rare" because I thought we would get a steak. What came out was a thinly sliced chuleta-style filet (see pictures) that has NO chance of being "medium" anything. Of course, it was "well done" and very tough. We did complain to our server who comped 1 set of drinks, but, honestly... We spent $140 + tip on a meal that was confusing and frustrating. It's so sad to say (because we loved Calavera) but we will not come back here to Mixe.

We missed the soft opening last Friday so we decided to come on a Thursday evening. When we arrived there was only a couple dining and hubby wanted to go somewhere else but I convinced to come in. We opted for the bar to see Thursday Night Football in which they were able to change it. We met Will the manager who whips up drinks and knows his stuff Freddy was tending the bar and made us feel welcome. He made recommendations and we opt for Queso flameado con chorizo and Ceviche Halibut. Both came fast and super delicious and presentation was on point. We plan on coming during brunch and super recommend giving this place a try, you wont be disappointed.

The food was great! We ordered the queso flameado con chorizo and the molcajete. The molcajete was amazing with the nopales cooked well to avoid the slimy texture they can sometimes have, and the chorizo and beans at the bottom were delicious. However, the service was not good. I want to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but I was definitely disappointed. I feel that having been open a few months should have ironed out the service issues by now, and it appears to have not. The drinks arrived after our appetizer. We realized the server didn't ask if we wanted tortillas or chips with the queso (the menu states it comes with one or the other). We didn't see our server to be able to make sure we got tortillas; it wasn't until the runner came with the queso that we could ask for the tortillas. The runner's response left me honestly disappointed and upset, after asking for the tortillas instead, he just stood there staring at me until my partner had to speak up instead. The runner finally took the chips back and replaced them with tortillas, but I could clearly tell he was annoyed. Then, no one asked how our meal was at any point during or after the meal, and our waters weren't refilled. We had wanted another round of drinks and possibly dessert, but yet again our server was nowhere to be found, and after waiting, we decided to just take the check and go elsewhere for another cocktail. The check also took longer to receive than it should have. Like I said the food and overall decor ambiance was good, but I'll most likely not return due to the service.

We had the pleasure of bringing in the New Year 2025 at Mixé. The festive spirit and uptown ambience made it memorable, even after drinking Mezcal shots and Mexican Mule cocktail (a tasty variation of my usual go to Moscow Mule). The food was irresistible, the spirits are top line, and the service was friendly and responsive. Great people and great spot. Definitely worth trying and repeating as an upscale venue for Oaxacan cuisine that satisfy the senses in the realm of Mexican food.

Mixe hole-in-the-wall food ( very good but not interesting or incredible ) feels out of place in the once Calavera trendy setting. The drinks are good, but standard. The menus are printed on white paper and do not have great descriptions of the food. However, I did find the servers exceptionally warm and attentive. If I were the owners I would recommend making the menu more descriptive and professional in feel, make a few speciality fun drinks, and present the restaurants concept and food upon introduction from servers.

Cheesecake Factory of Mexican Food • Drinks were disappointing (not strong and half-empty) • Had to repeatedly ask for the appetizer, which didn’t arrive until after the entrée. • Fajitas were served without tortillas and were missing mushrooms. The mushrooms finally arrived 30 minutes later, just as we were finishing the meal. • Despite the restaurant being nearly empty on a Friday night, we were seated next to wannabe Instagram influencers instead of being offered a quiet spot for a date. Overall, a frustrating and poorly handled experience. New management needs work, restaurant used be better

Came for the soft opening. This is a beautiful spot in a great location, with caring staff and accessible and tasty menu. Carne asada, enchilada, and the mixe salad were our standout dishes.
