    Complimentary chips
    Sherry J.

    We are always on the lookout for some good Mexican food. It was zero degrees outside the night we visited and we heard a server saying a table got up and moved. We were seated in front of the door and realized why. It was pretty miserable and we wore our coats for the entire meal. We ordered mango and pomegranate margaritas. I asked for salt and got salt the first time, but was given tajin instead on the 2nd round. The restaurant stresses you only get one complimentary order of chips, but the order you pay for with the guac is very small. We both ordered enchiladas Del Mar and thought they were tasty but the sauce was pretty bland. The guacamole also could have used more seasoning, but overall it was decent. We finished with churros which were excellent, probably some of the best I've had except for the chocolate syrup. They would be better with thick chocolate dipping sauce.

    Who would've thought amazing food would be in a strip mall? Only in Hockessin! My friend suggested I go here and it was the best meal I've had in a while! I will definitely be returning. The waitress was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely attentive. She anticipated our needs before we even knew them. They have great Mexican beers on draft. An extensive menu. And desserts that I should have made room for, Tres Leches and Flan!Again, on my next trip. If you're anywhere in southeastern, Pennsylvania or Delaware, you should check this place out! I highly recommend it.

    What a lovely find! Recommended by someone we met at ACME Grocery. Very nice ambiance, clean and welcoming. Ricardo was our server and he was wonderful, attentive and explained the various unique dishes. This restaurant offers very unique cuisine from various areas of Mexico. My husband ordered the Chiles En Nogada which was absolutely incredible! A stuffed chili with ground beef and pork, fruit, walnuts and warm spuces, topped with a walnut cream sauce and pomegranates! Wow!! Bursts of flavors with every bite! Refried beans and rice were delicious and the crispy beef taco was great. We will return!!

    Ambiance basic. Looks like and old pizza place. Had a good crowd later on. Service good but ordered two basic beef tacos. One came out with just lettuce and cheese. Don't see the Mexican/California fusion. If i lived 2 minutes away maybe i would go again. Its basics MIDs. The sangria is great. Best part of the dinner. Salsa pretty good

    Finally got the wife to join me at the best Mexican place near our new place that also has a full service bar. I guess my birthday had something to do with it. lol It wasn't too long after we were seated and ordered drinks and queso that we noticed a party of 16 show up next to us. Four couples and 8 kids. Gee, this never happens when I eat solo at the bar. Queso was a little runny, but the chips still warm so I didn't care. Both margaritas I had produced quite a wallop, and when paired with my delicious chicken chimichanga, it was lights out in the passenger seat on the way home. Joan enjoyed the taco salad with grilled shrimp as well. A gluttonous cap to my birthday was had by all.

    People usually rave about their tacos, enchiladas, and fajitas. I, on the other hand, enjoy their American cuisine with a Mexican twist. Chicken & chorizo penne pasta, burgers, and mango habanero wings. House margarita, mojitos, and Long Island iced tea (made by Maurizio) are a nice addition to their delicious food as well. Everyone is always friendly... servers and other customers. Feels just like home.

    ...'nuff said.

    Meh. Place has gone down hill since my last review... Food is "ok." Could be much better. My wife ordered fajitas...they're supposed to come out sizzling and steaming...they weren't. My chimichanga was just averaged at best. Atmosphere is "ok." Could be much better. Why do you still have valentines stuff (balloons/decorations) up a week after Valentine's Day? Furniture is mismatched. Lighting is odd. Also--your restrooms are FREEZING! Turn up the heat. They now charge for extra chips/salsa...seriously? Since when...And why? #Absurd I can go to Border Cafe and get all the chips/salsa I want. Also... We ordered 1 queso. They brought out two on accident. Their mistake. We told them. No worries on our end. Then they took it back...? Very odd. Why not just leave it. Hospitality 101. Plus, are you planning to serve that to someone else after we just breathed all over it? Or, are you going to just throw it away anyway? Why not leave it and "wow" us? I realize times are tight, but come on. You're getting cheap! Place seems stingy now. Under new management? Dunno. But something seems off. Also, our waiter was out of it. Guy with nose right and man bun. Too casual. Guy walked passed us multiple times without checking on us. WE had to ask for refills multiple times. Guy need to be trained better and step up his game or just find another profession. He's weak. To spend $125 (see attached; that's BEFORE tip...which was unearned!) on a Wednesday night, you just expect more. Call me crazy. ‍ Bumping the 5 stars down to 2. Step it up!!!

    Chicken breast in sauce
    Meredith I.

    We ate here a couple of weeks ago and it was great. They were quite busy but service was good- we didn't have to wait too long for anything. Started out with chips and salsa and we got a small order of guacamole . Very good. I got a mango mojito that I loved and my husband got a house margarita that he enjoyed. For my entree I got the enchilada's Del Mar . I was quite disappointed- I'd had it before and it was delicious, but this time the filling was just mush - like a fishy paste that you really couldn't tell what it was . The sauce on it was delicious. My husband got chicken breasts in sauce topped with cheese. It was served with rice and vegetables. He loved it . Even with my disappointing enchiladas I heartily recommend Mexican Table. Most things on the menu are very good.

    Cali quac and sangria.

These folks sell a Bay Box consisting of 3 perfectly seasoned crabs, about a half pound or more of shrimp, and a tasty ear of roasted local corn on a cob. $20! Perfect for my appetite and wallet. I'm thinking I could do this at least once a week. I can't tell you how wonderful these folks are. Great food AND service so I am going to get names to share with you tomorrow. I think it's really important to recognize people who make our lives better and share their kindness so freely. It's a cute little, colorful building with a big front covered porch and shaded outdoor tables for eating. Comfy. My new go-to crab house for singles or a crowd.

So instead ordered a few appetizers. Overall, the food was fine, main problem we had that the bussers and waitresses kept trying to take our plates before we were finished with them, very strange, almost like they were trying to rush us out. Was not checked on very much-only had one drink each. Though I ordered 15 wings only 10 were served, but they only charged me for 10. Not a very attentive waitstaff to say the least. At least I tried it, now I know, a bit disappointed.

About twenty minutes later nobody had come over and the restaurant wasn't all that busy.

We waited another ten minutes until a little after 6:30 before going to the hostess who told us she'd let someone know. A few minutes later the server who was serving the couple directly next to us came to us, apologized and started our evening. We both ordered the scallop and shrimp risotto and a few minutes later our server came to tell us they were out of scallops.
