    Love the new establishment, beautiful decor, the service was amazing as always, but food was short…read more Come quite often to establishment when Im in the area, because of the service, environment and overall food. Today, hopefully due it being a new establishment on opening day there may have been a few details missed out. They won't have liquor until next week but that's ok. Food looked great but taste was just not the usual. Server was truly awesome and made sure to advise the kitchen that there were a few missed items but definitely looking forward to be here in the future when they are firing off on all cylinders.

    Food was good, house hot sauce was meh, had a weird starting taste and didn't have the heat I was…read moreexpecting. Plus, it had a strange muted white orange color and a smoky burnt finish. Granted the server could have been like it's a white boy they don't know heat or flavor. Meal was a little pricy, it was dinner after all and let's face it everything has gone up in price. Staff seemed nice with what little interaction there was. Four people at the front desk and no one wanted to help us. Place was dead and we had a party of 8, do you want to take our money??? Never saw our server after we gave our orders and got our food. Had to flag people down for help and refills. We did have fun watching our server sitting in a booth playing on their phone. Then we noticed most of the servers weren't paying attention to the diners and were either standing at a work station talking to other employees or on their phones. Completely ignoring patrons... that was amazing fun 2 thumbs up, great watch for the whole family.

    Visited on Cinco de Mayo (May 5, 2026) and encountered significant billing inconsistencies that…read moreraised serious concerns. My son was initially charged $34.39 for two frozen mango margaritas at the bar. Later, he went back up to the bar ordered one frozen strawberry margarita (listed at $15) and a tequila shot ($6), yet was charged $58.46. When I questioned, the female bartender about the price of a frozen margarita, and shot she immediately stated it was $15 and $6 stated that they thought the two earlier frozen mango margaritas had not been paid for. Obviously that was a false statement because they would've never allowed a patriot to walk away without paying for drinks from the bar this was just a way to justify them overcharging him. Although a refund was issued after I raised the issue, it was still inaccurate only $30 was returned instead of the full $34.39, excluding tax. Additionally, no apology or clear explanation was provided. This experience reflects poorly on the establishment's billing accuracy and transparency. Customers should carefully review their charges, as pricing appears inconsistent for identical items. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this establishment.

If you are…read morelooking for a place that is packed with flavor and has amazing Birria tacos..THIS PLACE IS THE PLACE TO GO! I am reviewing everything at our table because we were all taking bites from each other's food, we couldn't resist! Drinks: To start, for our drinks, we had agua frescas. They have Agua de Horchata and and Agua de Jamaica. They had a great selection of mixed drinks and margaritas. (We skipped the alcohol and tried the Agua Frescas both flavors) The drinks were so good and refreshing. I would love to see Agua de Limon and Agua de Pepino in the future! Food: The Birria Ramen...wow, this was served with cilantro, onions, limes (of course) and consume for dipping. This is served with two birria tacos that have delicious flavor and melted cheese making every bite have you saying, "OMG MMM!!!" The Ramen has Birria in it as well! To prepare it properly put the cilantro and onions inside the Ramen and then squeeze all the lime they gave you in it and enjoy! The Ramen was so good! The Torta Asada was so incredible! It reminded me of the tortas I've had in Mexico. The bread is so perfectly fluffy, and soft for the torta. The steak is paired with lettuce, tomato, mayo, and jalapeños in making it the best combination for a traditional style torta, packed with flavor in eat bite. The Birria Pizza was probably my favorite out of everything at our table. It is huge so share this with someone unless you take left overs, which is also ok too! Keep that flavor going on for your taste buds the next day! :) The Birria pizza has the consume cooked into the tortilla so it's immediate flavor to your taste buds. The meat and melted cheese combo is so delicious, you will close your eyes after every single bite, in amazement. The ambience of this place is fun and entertaining, but is also appropriate for kids. They have seats on the side so if you're just trying to go for a nice date night this space is perfect for that. The environment is designed for everyone! I really enjoyed the service we received from the lady that helped us. The owner also came over and asked us how the food was and my daughter had the pleasure of saying how amazing it was and how much she enjoyed the food. This is coming from a picky eater. As long as this review is, I'm sure you can guess that I will be returning to El Ultimo Trago in the future for sure and highly recommend everyone comes here to try it, you won't regret it!
