The food came out super fast and piping hot, which we appreciated. We ordered the birria tacos and shrimp birria tacos. The flavor was good, but it did feel like the shrimp portion was a bit skimpy. Not enough shrimp just a lot of cheese. Also disappointed that they don't offer cocktails, which would really elevate the experience, so one star deducted for that. Still a good spot if you want quick, hot Tex-Mex with great service

Love the food here…read more Hate the DJ. I'm a first time mom who is the primary caregiver and full time work from home employee. I don't GET to come out often anymore. But when I do, we go to places with nothing but respect for the places we go, knowing we have a really well behaved baby makes it easier to go places. We came here because we used to love the service, food and atmosphere. Even with a small baby, we'd already been here twice. No issues. Came again with my 2.5 month old baby on a Friday after a really long week in the house. We left the restaurant early enough that by the time we left it was still daylight. Arrived around 5:30-6pm. Ordered our food and as it arrived a DJ came in. As we were almost done (about 39 min later) a DJ came in and started blasting club music. I knew we would've be able to stay much longer because the chatter mixed with the DJ would be too much anyways so I requested the check while we prepared to leave. Because it started getting SO loud I asked the host to see if the DJ could turn down the music while we got the check, asking for only 3-5 minutes specifically so my husband could pack up the baby and we could leave, and get out of their hair. The DJ turned up the music so loud we had to remove my daughter from the establishment before the check was paid. The host came back over to me and like in a club had to get really close to my face to apologize for the DJ Turing the music up even louder. He said " I am SOO SORRY! I have no idea what the DJ is doing or why they turned up the music, I asked to have it turned down and they turned it up." (Had ordered a second glass of wine since my husband was driving, and was the only two glasses I'd had since pregnancy). Didn't even get to finish my second glass. Needless to say I bought her earmuffs that night. It was the single most inconsiderate moment we've had since she was born. While I know that babies can be inconvenient for folks, our baby wasn't making a peep and was actually quite happy, and never got fussy, but we thought we were going to a sit down restaurant that was family friendly with her. We rushed out as soon as we realized it wasn't, but literally couldn't even get out of there fast enough!! I asked for a few minutes and got a proverbial slap in the face. This is how our communities fail women and mothers. We can't just hide in our houses until the baby is grown up. We deserve to be in places, and enjoy life too. Turning music up that loud is totally fine. I genuinely don't care, I can handle leaving the restaurant and being respectful to those who want to party on a Friday. But let get 5 min so I can pack up and pay. Management failed that night because we used to love coming here and unfortunately the amount of disrespect in that one gesture was enough for me to never go back. Having a DJ at happy hour is fine. Just know THAT DJ lost you a customer.

It comes with beans, rice and tortillas, and I ordered some fried plantains on the side. The plantains were delicious, perhaps the best I have had in the Waldorf area! The fish was moist and tasted pretty good, but my disappointment was that it lacked seasoning. I am used to this dish being flavorful, and this one was not. Similarly, the rice and the beans were bland. If they just added some seasoning, I would have loved everything. But I did like it enough to make a return trip eventually. It's definitely solid and worth a visit, and I loved the festive looking interior. Now if we can just address this seasoning issue...

I love a homey looking restaurant so I decided to give them a try. Now the inside has two area...the bar area with a few table tops and the other side where you can go to the counter and order and has several tables to sit. I decided to sit at the table tops on the bar side. The bartender came and took my order. I decided to start off with a strawberry margarita. Now, I was kind of disappointed in the margarita because if you asked me I would think it would be made from scratch. It was not...Smdh So the margarita was extremely sweet and tasted artificial. I ended up getting a couple of other drinks ended up being Mai Tai which tasted way better. Now on to the food...shrimp tacos were made with the small shrimps and was plentiful which was good. Just when I asked for cheese it was the queso fresco I believe which was not what I expected. I also ordered steak tacos and the steak was cut in strips like you would find at a Chinese restaurant. Not seasoned at all. The guacamole I ordered with a side of chips didn't have flavor or salt either. I was so disappointed again this restaurant seems to supposedly should have been "authentic" and everything should have tasted homemade and on point. Would I come back no... The side order of jalapeños were grilled good, but the green onions can't remember what they are actually called rates old and were left side like they were sitting around getting soggy. The amount of money I spent compared to what I got...it's one and done for me.

The sauce that I got, I believe doable wasn't too spicy and had just the right spice. The server was kind and answered all questions asked of him. I would definitely return.

Mexico Restaurant is one of those reliable neighborhood spots we keep coming back to. The food is always good, the portions are generous, and you really can't go wrong with a margarita and some chips and salsa to start. The menu has a little bit of everything, but this is definitely one of our go-to places when we're craving Mexican food and don't want to venture too far from home. It's casual, family-friendly, and perfect for an easy lunch or dinner when nobody feels like cooking. Nothing overly fancy, just good food, good drinks, and a spot that has become one of our regulars over the years. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the White Plains/Charles County area. read more
