    the front of the restaurant
    Kristie W.

    It was a treat to dine here while visiting family. I was told this is an local favorite. The inside is dark and intimate. The staff are friendly and attentive. The chips are warm and fresh. The salsa is delicious with great flavors. It has a little heat for those who may be sensitive to spice. The chori-pollo is delicious! Everything has been seasoned well and is full of flavor! I highly recommend you trying this place out!

    Churrasco Steak
    Brandon S.

    Easily one of the best spots for Mexican in the 417. Clean restaurant, attentive service and super fresh ingredients. Piping hot, freshly made chips and salsa are fantastic. I normally get the Churrasco which is super seasoned and tender thanks to the unique preparation. The "chimichurri pesto" is different and not really a traditional parsley-based chimichurri, it's more of a salsa. The only negatives are the restaurant is small so it can get very loud and busy inside. Also the sides like pinto beans and rice they serve are very underwhelming and I would love to see a black bean alternative.

    Oaxacan

    Great hidden gem! A lot more authentic with better chips and salsa than the taco place next door. Decent prices for a lot of food. Try the Oaxacan cocktail for a nice smoky mezcal drink!

    This is my third trip to Springfield and my third visit to Catrinas Modern Mexican. Love the atmosphere they created. Food was on point, cocktails were outstanding (taste, presentation, and strength), and their sopapilla cheesecake would have been worth the trip by itself. I've had the Tacos Del Mar, Chile Verde burrito, and the enchiladas and all were worth ordering. Bartenders each visit were solid and no issues with wait times etc. Overall -Good prices and pretty darn good Mexican food (I'm from Texas) If I visit Springfield for a fourth time I'll be stopping by Catrinas.

    chicken fajitas and hibiscus margarita
    Mya S.

    Came here because I was craving some good mexican food and a margarita; I saw the pictures that were on here and decided the food looked (key word: looked) good enough for me to try it. So I order the chicken fajitas and ask for my chicken to be well done. It was no one in there when I was there so the food came out fast. For one thing, there was no separate sour cream for me to put in my fajitas, no cheese came with it either. So I guess they expected me to eat this plain a** fajita with no flavor basically. The chicken was absolutely NOT well done like I asked. I didn't want to tell my waiter to take it back because he was nice and I didn't want him to go through all that. Anyway, they have no frozen margaritas, they're all on the rocks which was ok, I mean luckily the marg I got was good (hibiscus). So that's the only plus so far. I sat there and ate the fajitas because I was hungry/hadn't eaten all day. I'm used to cheese and separate sour cream; not sour cream drizzled on old lettuce they expect me to eat. AND they only initially give you 2 tortillas. I had to ask for more. So overall the food was mediocre. It looks good on the pic I posted but for me and my tastebuds, personally, it was a DEFINITE NO for me. THE OTHER PROBLEM I HAD, was that NO ONE but maybe 2 people in the whole restaurant had masks on. And I don't want to hear all that bull about "cOviD nUmbErS aRe gOinG dOwn" because my friends mother in law JUST got it and she feels horrible. NO ONE who walked in had a mask, and none of the employees said ANYTHING to these patrons/customers....like NOTHING. AT ALL. Just went right ahead and sat them. It's really annoying and disheartening when people feel they're above protecting the public like that doesn't include they're loved ones and family. People behind the bar weren't wearing masks, it was absolutely ridiculous. I don't even want to know if the cooks had them on or not but my guess is FUCK NO. I'm from St. Louis and everyone is pretty compliant there with the masks, even though it's sort of a conspiracy, borderline hillbilly town, so I'm sure people would love to not wear masks but for the most part people do. I have never seen such selfish people and people who think they're above protecting other people....a social contract if you will. but rant over long story short .....I'm never coming back here :)
