    Queso
    Joelle J.

    If you're looking for a spot to try for taco Tuesday then I would recommend stopping by! I got lucky by going on a day that didn't seem to be too busy so my service was relatively quick. I opted for the queso along with two different tacos to try and it was all good. Only wish the presentation of the tacos were nicer but for $4 I'm more so happy that they tasted good.

    Really cute place, very light & airy. The food was excellent. The service was good too, except the waiter was confused when we asked for separate checks, which didn't seem unreasonable for three people. Also, it was extremely warm inside and the thermostat was next to our table looked like it was 100 years old. I would definitely go again on a cooler day.

    Fried Chicken Tacos

    We chose to sit in the bar area which was a good move. The dining area was a bit noisy as we heard the conversation coming from the other area. The bar area is quiet and lighting is dimmer so a bit more relaxing. Chris the bartender had a nice laid back demeanor and provided many refills of our drinks. I had the Fried Chicken Tacos which were delicious! My boyfriend had the Curry Vegetable Tacos. Not too overpowering in flavor and nice change from standard tacos. It is a bit expensive for tacos but was a nice evening out nonetheless.

    It's been years since we left a review but last week's dinner deserved another. We had the chicken burrito and crispy shrimp tacos. Very plentiful entrees and their appropriate sides. We'll be back for dinner again soon ... maybe taco Tuesday as the tacos were awesome.

    Why does this place have three stars??? The food here is delicious! I got the steak fajitas. And the reason why I am not leaving a five star review, is because I felt like they were stingy with the steak. I had enough to make three VERY slender tacos. Just a tad bit more would have made it perfect. But again, the flavor was great. The salsa was delicious. I really liked their take on black beans. Everything was just super flavorful! Had a mock-a-rita and that was great! My server Sydney and the rest of the staff were so kind to me too! The vibe of this place is great. I was here on a Thursday night. It was very chill. As a California Mexican, I say, bravo. If I'm ever in this area I am coming back.

    3 out of 5 stars I stopped by MEX in Bloomfield Hills on a Monday night to take advantage of their all-day happy hour margaritas. My first margarita was fantastic--fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced. But when I ordered a second one, it tasted completely different. I asked about it and was told their margaritas are on draft and they had just switched over. Unfortunately, that means consistency isn't guaranteed, which was a letdown considering how great the first one was. I ordered a trio of tacos--shrimp, beef, and chicken--and honestly, they were underwhelming. They weren't hot, more like room temperature, and gave me the impression they'd been sitting for a bit. Maybe they weren't, but that's how they came across. On the upside, our server was excellent--friendly, attentive, and doing his best--but there's only so much he can do if the kitchen and bar aren't on point. The space is beautiful and unique (it used to be a Big Boy, which is wild), so I'm willing to give it another shot on a different night. Hopefully next time the food and drinks match the vibe.

    I like the remodeling of this place so much more than what it used to be to look like. The staff are always friendly and smiling. We got the queso and salsa duo. The guacamole appetizers to start the quest was had great flavor the salsa and the chips were very salty but other than that tasted great. I had the shrimp fajitas which were disappointing it only had onions and shrimp and were not very hot. Usually there are at least 3 shrimps per tortilla. I only had 7 pieces of shrimp I was only able make 2 of 3 tortillas. The burrito was huge tasted good but was a bit spicy according to my daughter. My Paloma was one of the best I have tasted. It tasted like fresh pink grapefruit.

    Shrimp Taco and Americano Tacos
    hunter c.

    Mex was an okay restaurant. We ordered the Birria tacos, shrimp tacos, the americano, elote, and a margarita. Starting off with the Birria Tacos, they were very cumin and cinnamon heavy. That flavor was very overpowering and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't like those flavors. Other than that the Birria tacos were flavorful and good. My mom tasted the rice and beans and she said that they were mediocre. She also said that the classic margarita was sour and could've used more agave. It tasted like a skinny margarita. She also said that the Americano taco was good and flavorful and the shrimp tacos were a bit fishy. 3/5 for mex, if i could 2.5. Only go if you're in the area, wouldn't go out of my way.

    Went here for lunch today and it was great. We sat outside and I liked the covered patio. While I am a little sad they no longer have brunch the lunch was great. We both ordered the Pretty in Pink cocktail and it was delicious. We started off with queso, it was good. It's not on the actual menu but they do have it. My friend ordered the duck tacos and she really liked jt. I got the chicken fajitas and it was delicious. The chicken had a very good flavor. I loved it. We ended with the Mex Brownie sundae that was also very good. We will definitely be back

The restaurant vibes were really nice. We were seated at a booth next to the window where you can see into the back kitchen. Our server was super nice and brought out bread for us. We ordered a spicy margarita and the lychee guava martini. The margarita was way too spicy for me but my friend tolerated it. I loved the martini!! It was so good I actually ended up having 3 of them. We originally planned on entrees but ended up just ordering all kinds of apps and got full off of those. It was really satisfying and we had fun trying all the different things they had. I don't think there was anything we didn't like. We got oysters, beef carpaccio, whipped ricotta, and beef tips. Towards the end of our meal the DJ started setting up and the restaurant was rearranging the furniture to make room. We were told our booth was sold but were welcome to continue in another booth until anything changes. The atmosphere transitioned really smoothly and we enjoyed ourselves. It was fun mingling and dancing and ended up staying until close. I would definitely come here again!

I'm sure the staff would have been responsive if I complained that my medium order was grey in the middle. The presentation was great but you'll see in the second picture it was overcooked

We got there at opening and were the first party there. From the start, service was not the best.

The busboy was great, filling water and cleaning plates later. I had the Chilaquiles and was not a fan. It's supposed to be eggs and shredded chicken in sauce over crispy tortillas. The eggs and chicken were fine, but the tortillas were a soggy mess. The server never asked how I liked my food, not even when she took away a mostly full plate. Other food items were enjoyed by my friends, so maybe just my choice was a miss. I would probably come back for the ambiance, and try a different dish.
