Be cautious, the presentation of the food is appealing, but it does not match the taste.
Everything was EXTREMELY bland.
We should’ve left when we walked in and 4 servers are standing at a table directly in front of the door next to the host stand eating.
Management allowing that is probably why it was dead here on a Friday night.
We immediately were sat by the host.
Our server Julia, told me they were out of sweet tea. No big deal. I got my water instead.
We got the Street Corn and Chorizo Fundido appetizers. They looked great, until we tasted them. The street corn was probably the worst I’ve ever had. I’ve had quite a lot, it’s one of my favorite things. It came out on a steaming skillet for show, but was basically just cheese and mayo on it. I had to ask for more seasoning and it didn’t seem like there was any Cojita on it either. Very disappointing. After getting these, and being let down, we were wanting to order our meal. We had decided on the Molcajeta Del Mar, but were not able to order for an additional 10 minutes because our server was back at the table at the front door eating again. We made eye contact multiple times trying to subtly get her to come back so we could order, but she just kept eating and not coming to our table.
Once she finally got our order, a food runner brought it out, and once again, first impression was that it was visually appealing.
It was not tastefully appealing. It was very bland, as if everything was just boiled and no seasonings. Probably the first time I’ve decided not to eat my food at a Mexican restaurant. I LOVE food and for me to not eat really means it just flat out sucks. And to top everything off, one of the easiest items to make, my plantains, were way too overly dry.
When we told our server that we weren’t fond of most of it, she didn’t try and reconcile it in any form. I’ve worked in a lot of restaurants, and at any single one of them, we always tried to make the customer leave happy. Whether it was remade food, a percentage off the bill, or at least the OFFER of either of those things. We were not given any sort of fix to our issue. Only reason I’m giving two stars is solely for the presentation. The place has potential, especially with the atmosphere, but as to our service, and our food, I would not recommend it to anybody.
