    This place is honestly one of the prettiest Mexican restaurants I've seen in a while. The interior is beautifully done--stylish, warm, and thoughtfully decorated without feeling overdone. It's the kind of space that feels casual but still a little elevated. Service was excellent from start to finish. Attentive, friendly, and everything came out smoothly without feeling rushed. The steak taco stood out--super juicy with a really flavorful sauce that tied everything together. The enchilada was just as good, soft and slightly chewy in the best way, with a comforting, rich taste. Overall, it's a spot I'd easily come back to. Great food, great service, and a setting that makes the whole experience feel a bit special without trying too hard.

    Taquitos Dorados

    A year later and I still love this place! The inside is beautifully decorated, never too noisy, and perfect for an upscale casual brunch, lunch, or dinner. It's similar to an experience you would expect somewhere on the strip. I came here for my birthday back in September and I suggested it for a recent outing with some coworkers while a director was in town. I can't get over their ceviche de camarón con mango, it's so good! I think they changed the name of it at some point, and it might be listed as aguachile now. I ordered it on both of my two most recent visits. On my most recent visit, I packed up my leftovers and forgot them on the table when I left. I was disappointed when I got home and realized I left my leftovers at the restaurant, because I was looking forward to having it for lunch the next day Lol I did try something new, the dulce amor espresso martini, and I absolutely loved it! The foam on top takes it to the next level and sweetens it up perfectly. I continue to recommend this place.

    Service was decent, we did have a wait a while to be acknowledged once sat and it did take a while to get drinks refilled, however, he was able to answer all of our questions and we had some modifications requested to our items and all of those came out correctly. The place itself is very pretty, definitely more upscale feel but still casual. The food was good, not incredible but definitely good. However, the cost is way too high for what it is. The quest fundido definitely needed the added chorizo or it would've been flavorless and basic, not sure why they even have an option for a plain one. The steak for the hangar steak fajitas was cooked perfectly. The quesobirria tacos were very good, the meat on it was cooked well and flavorful.

    5 stars for food, I ordered NY steak carne asada, everything in this meal is delicious, balance of flavors are great, the presentation is phenomenal, the price a little too expensive. Our meal is sponsored by our medical rep Y90. 4 stars for my passion fruit margarita, I am a cheap date, hardly drink but I didn't taste alcohol in this drink, either they forgot to put alcohol or it was watered down. Service was great, we didn't wait for our food that long, very attentive staff. Very romantic ambiance, with mood lighting and the restaurant looks nice inside. Plenty of parking outside!!! Ayayay !!!

    I honestly cannot believe I had not stopped by sooner! This restaurant is located in the stripshop area on horizen. Parking can be a little tight as there are other businesses around but not hard to find. My hubby and I arrived with no reservation, lucky for us there was a table available by the enterance across by the bar. Typically this can bother a person but the table and atmosphere was just so welcoming, and sophisticated that it really did not matter. The music was on point with classic and updated latin hits and the ambiance was just perfect. We ordered a few different cocktails, two appetizers and split the beef dish. It was so much food ! Tortillas are made inhouse and were perfectly kept warm. the oysters were probably one of the best I have had in a long time! Drinks were fun, not too strong and not too bland, so very well balanced. Although we were stuffed we still took a slice of the tres leches home to have for breakfast with coffee the next day. Everything was excellent! Will be back!

    Guacamole and chips

    Every now and then a place will slip out of my mind to review and then I find the pictures on my phone and realize I never reviewed. I was actually here in 2024 with friends to enjoy lunch. At the time this place was still fairly new. We entered into this beautifully decorated restaurant and we were seated promptly. Music was at a talking level so no one had to shout. My two friends had their babies with them so we all were kept busy with the kids. I quickly perused the menu and made a good decision on what to eat. We started with the table side service of guacamole and chips. I went ordering the Huevos Rancheros. I liked what I ate and appreciated the unique way they served this dish from this restaurant. My friends enjoyed their dishes as well. For dessert we all loved the churros with the dipping sauces. Although the cocktails looked tasty, it was a little too early for moi to imbibe so next time. If you find yourself in the neighborhood, be sure to check this place out.

    Birria Tacos

    This is still one of our favorite Mexican red in town. Excellent drinks and happy hour items. I have not had anything I haven't liked yet. The fresh guacamole is a hit. The enchiladas have so much flavor and are better than others I've had around town. I especially love the tacos, rice and beans. Service is always great! It's good to see familiar faces each time we visit. I love the low lighting as well, it's more intimate. There are little lamps on the tables so you can still see the menu though.

    Awe this place is so cute and such a hidden gem when looking from the outside. We kicked off the celebratory bachelorette weekend for my sister here and wow we had not only a good time but such good food! Everyone ordered something very different but my verde chilaquiles were delicious! But you guys, the thing that blew everyone away here was the amazing and I mean A M A Z I N G churros. They were warm, they were sugary, they were soft, they were flakey!? like a croissant flakey. To. Die. For. We almost ordered more but were too full sadly lol. Highly recommend this spot! Staff is also so so kind here

    Happy Hour Memelas De Birria
    Lisa B.

    First visit to this restaurant. Met two couples for happy hour at 4 pm. Seated right away inside their lovely dining room. Chairs were very comfortable and the server was nice and fast after we ordered. I opted for the happy hour birria with a draft beer. They were out of the IPA on draft. The birria was a nice portion and the meat was tender and flavorful. One couple shared a fajitas entree. Another tried the happy hour chicken tacos. And one tried an entree. Everyone said they enjoyed the restaurant and we would like to return. Chips and three salsas are optional; they do charge. I thought worth it. The quality was excellent and the salsas were unique and tasty. Noticed a small outdoor patio, and a few televisions inside with a nice bar area. It got busy on way out about 6 pm so if we return for dinner, we will make a reservation. Also, the brunch menu looks awesome.

    We came here for an event and stayed to enjoy some appetizers. They were having a couple of tequila tastings--Cazcanes and Entre Manos with representatives from both tequila companies doing presentations on different days. Both areas took place in the bar area and we essentially took over the bar (all around and standing room areas). The presentations were both pretty detailed and not too long, which was perfect since this place is pretty lively ALL THE TIME. Their tequila selection is pretty extensive and offers some top notch pours and inventive cocktails. The light bites included chips and guac and salsa. Not sure what they put in the chips but they're very flavorful and addicting. We must've had 3 rounds of them alone! We also got Shrimp Ceviche--the hints of jalapenos almost took me out but also added to the flavor. Corn Esquites were also ordered (Mexican street food/like elotes without the cob but with all the flavors). I like their take on Modern Mexican cuisine and given their attentiveness to our huge groups in addition to the rest of the packed restaurant--refilling water and drinks and food offerings--I will definitely be back to try other dishes.

    Passion fruit margarita

    So delicious Drinks, food, and dessert! It was all amazing! They were patient with my party being late, we brought kiddos... not sure if it was the best idea, but they had options for them. Definitely a great spot for friends and a date night. So cute and lots of parking!

We had a reservation and were seated right away. The decorations in this place are plentiful and very visually interesting. There is literally so much to look at in here but it's not too crazy overwhelming. Our server was great. She made sure to check in on us a lot and made sure my husband did not get any cilantro. Much appreciated. The cocktails were good and I'd like to come in to try more. The food was super good and I'd definitely come back in to have more of it. I really liked their version of queso fundido. So freaking good. Also, I liked the seasoning on the chips. The portion sizes are generous and the pricing isn't too expensive.

    This is an update to my previous review. Unfortunately it has to be the worst review I've ever left…read morefor a restaurant. After our last trip when we received absolutely crap service and the manager tried to make it right by comping us, she indicated that the next meal "was on her" and urged us to come back "and give them another chance".. I took her at her word and contacted the restaurant to let her know that I was going to bring my wife and her parents to the restaurant for her birthday. So I contacted the restaurant and informed them that we wanted a reservation for four and that was my wife's birthday. I was contacted and told that they would do something special. We showed up and the front girl was "perfunctory at best". We were seated and waited 20 minutes before we received any water or chips. However, the staff was busy bustling to set this large table in the middle of the dining room for a group that wouldn't show up for 10 minutes. They literally had their chips, salsa, water etc. 10 minutes before we did and we weren't even there. When we did get a waitress she was perfunctory and less than friendly. When I told her we were there for my wife's birthday her answer was "oh that's nice". Far cry from "we will make the evening special for you". We got our food which was fine but absolutely nothing. Throughout the meal the waitress spent all of her time chatting with the large group in the middle - obviously her friends or whatever because they got five star service while we were simply ignored. If we wanted to get a refill of a glass of water or in my father-in-law's case, some sour cream, had to literally get up and pull her away from her buddy table to get service. In addition, not a happy birthday, dessert nothing. So much for trusting the manager when she said that she was going to comp the meal or even at the minimum do something to celebrate the birthday. If we went to something as mundane as Applebee's my wife would've got a piece of cheesecake lol. Very disappointed in this place. We love the food but the service is just crap.

Bolognese is good if you want something that has a red sauce taste to it. We also had the Yellowtail Crudo for our appetizer which was probably the best thing we had all night!
