    First time dining, we tried lunch. The restaurant is lovely with plenty of seating and a nice patio for outdoor dining in warmer months. The bartender quickly sat us at a two top table in the bar (he was the only server for the restaurant). We didn't see him again for apx 10 minutes and he took both our drink and lunch order. We asked if the restaurant had a spicy salsa as the "samples" were mild or sweet and only half full little plastic ramekins (see picture) so attempting to dip a chip was quite the challenge. The waiter returned later with a ramekin of tapetio bottled sauce not homemade salsa lol. I ordered the lunch fajitas (steak) with flour tortillas and Johnny had the chili verde. Our food arrived promptly and visually looked pleasing. The steak fajitas were ok, but the "steak" had a few larger pieces visible upon arrival but not much under the green peppers and onions and just pretty bland. The meat was tender and the onions caramelized nicely but the green peppers were large sliced so very al dente. Johnny enjoyed his chili verde but there just wasn't a lot of flavor. Oh, we didn't receive the flour tortillas, we got corn). On a plus, the corn tortillas were thin and tasty. You aren't given any more salsa to add to your meal and when we asked for more of the first ramekin because it had a slight spice, we were given the wrong one. I can't tell you what it was because our server didn't tell us even though we shared it was our first time lol. After receiving the wrong half full ramekin of sauce I asked for the right one, sadly it never arrived. Johnny went to the car and grabbed some tabasco (green) for flavor. The restaurant is so cute, has a good lunch menu, served 11-3 M-F and a great happy hour (pictured), but has some opportunities to improve. Another weird note for November, there were a couple flies in the bar area and three in the ladies room and outside the bathrooms which seemed odd for fall. Our server was nice enough, but didn't ask about our meal or offer refills. I can't recommend them at this time. We will give them another try and I hope the experience is much better. Lastly, we received our bill with just the total, no itemized receipt offered.

    Very sad how this place keeps raising prices and nickel and diming its customers. Check these two photos from 7/10/25. I happen to love their shrimp enchiladas. No one around makes them like MT. Menu on website says $22.25--a totally fair price. But their new preferred online ordering app called FTR has same item listed for $32.50!!!! SHAME ON YOU. Lower your prices, be kind to your employees, lower your upcharge prices like extra sour cream, and you will get more butts in the seats and SUCCEED.

    Straws were tossed onto the table unwrapped and unclean, not something you expect when dining out. It is unhygienic.

    I never leave reviews, but this restaurant had me wanting to leave one because of the poor service and food. Our drinks were given in plastic cups, we're expecting a premium experience -- glassware, proper table settings, and ambiance. Plastic undermines that. It comes off as cheap and seems like the restaurant is cutting corners. Then our straws were just tossed onto the table unwrapped and unclean, as you can see in the photo. Not something you expect when dining out. It felt careless and unhygienic. My carne asada's meat was very little and so thin. That is not how a carne asada is supposed to be. I would suggest that you don't come here. This is so disappointing and the food had no flavor. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and improves their service standards, because little details like this really affect the overall experience.

    "Some food just isn't worth the service" Mexico Tipico is a great establishment but you have to be ready to dine-in for at least 2 hours. The servers are friendly, but extremely slow. We waited to be seated for 15minutes, sat, waited for a server for 15minutes, ordered drinks, waited another 20 for our drinks to come, then waited again for our order to be taken. It was a never-ending loop of waiting. After an hour and a half we finally received our food- which I must say was delicious!! The guac was phenomenal! The tacos were clearly made with fresh vegetables & meat and the beans were to die for!! Unfortunately the service outweighed the food ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Hopefully this isn't the norm

    Visited this place twice. Their hours are good, the place was clean and the wait staff is friendly. The food is god awful. I have tried the nachos and fajitas and both were just tasteless and the nachos were burnt. The vegetables in the fajitas were off-tasting and undercooked. My main gripe is with the salsa and chips situation. They WILL NOT give you just a little bowl of salsa. They give you this wooden board with three ramekins (little cups) where one is salsa and the other two are beans...or sugar/vinegar water, couldn't tell but they were gross. When I asked for a little bowl of salsa they told me they didn't have little bowls. I got two house margaritas and a nacho appetizer. With a 15% tip, it came to 70 dollars. If the food doesn't make you gag the prices will. I won't be back till the next restaurant, which will inevitably take its place opens. They have this picture on the bar. She even looks disgusted with the food

    The prices here are OUTRAGEOUS for the portions and quality of the food. The food is just okay, it wasn't anything special. I did like the margarita I got but $18 was way too much. The service was also pretty nonexistent, they just took our order and brought the food. I'm not sure why everything is priced this way. I wouldn't go back.

    I need to update this review in an unfortunate way. We went back and I was so excited to take my family. For starters, they charged for everything...soda refills, asking for included items to be put on the side, etc. The even had cut the napkins in half to make them smaller. Here's the kicker...2 people in our party who ordered the same meal got sick after eating it. I brought it up to management and they were so mean about it. They told me to pay or they'd call the police (I didn't even ask for a free meal). Then they accused me of making up excuses to get a free meal (again, I never even asked). I was so nice to them about the whole thing and told them how much I loved coming here. They basically told me to deal with it and that there's no way their food could've made my party sick. I paid and left. I'm so sad this happened. I've never been spoken to that way at a restaurant in my life and I'm so disappointed. If I were you, I'd avoid this place.

    Rice and chicken. Fantastic lunch

    Right in S Broad St. the location couldn't be any better with parking right in the front…read more I got the horchata it was so fresh and yummy. For small plates, we got the esquites and sweet plantains. The esquites was delicious. For the sweet plantains, they asked if we wanted the crema + queso fresco on the side but it still came on top. Plantains were alright, wasn't loving them though because they were drenched in the toppings. Kale salad was huge! Yummy and fresh. The food came out so quick. I love that they use corn tortillas for the tacos. The pork belly taco was drenched in kimchi, not my favorite but a good cut of pork belly. I like the lamb taco tasted just like a mini lamb gyro. The baja fish taco was my favorite though, it's comes in a huge slab. it was so good I ordered another. I love the chipotle sauce the Baja fish taco comes with too. The music was awesome too, such a vibe. A lot of EDM, felt like all they were missing was a disco ball. Very delicious, would come back.

    Don Rene Taqueria is a fast-ish casual Mexican spot with a variety of made to order tacos,…read morequesadillas and sides/apps. Great flexibility for mix and match a variety of tacos. Convenient for dine in or take out. We found the plantains to be well fried and deliciously sweet. The ribeye quesadilla was good chunks of beef, but while good quality, seemed to lack seasoning. Service was friendly but missed several things in our order. Had to catch before we left we had ordered a drink. Unfortunately did not find out until we got home they had not bagged the dipping sauce for the birria tacos.

    I went here on a Friday night and this was my second time here. The food has been excellent each…read moretime. The staff is very friendly but I will say that they are pretty slow. It took a while to get our orders taken and for our food to come out. The only dish I didn't enjoy this time was the tortilla soup. It was flavorless. A table nearby had a tomahawk steak and they did a table side show. Overall the food was a 7.9 Overall the service was a 7

    Dinner | $100+ | February 13, 2026…read more I called earlier today to reserve a table for three people for 7 PM. The gentleman who answered was professional, took my name and phone number, and clearly confirmed the reservation. When we arrived at 7 PM, we were told my name was not in the system. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the mistake, and no attempt to take responsibility. Instead, we were seated at a table near the kitchen without any explanation or courtesy. The front desk staff member's attitude was unprofessional and dismissive. In hospitality, basic respect and accountability are expected. A simple apology would have gone a long way, but none was offered. The food was average at best. The only positive part of the evening was the gentleman who served us -- he was professional, attentive, and courteous. His service stood in sharp contrast to the unacceptable front desk experience. This was meant to be part of our Valentine's Day Eve celebration, and the mishandling of the reservation completely undermined the experience. For a dinner costing over $100, this level of service is unacceptable. Very disappointing experience. I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this restaurant based on how reservations and guests are treated.
