Was my birthday and had a free bday reward to pick up so got the ropa Vieja and the limo burger. Ambiance was really nice since I haven't been at this establishment in a while. They were already and full house. I just ordered takeout so didn't stay. Was a little wait not bad at all. Got home and really enjoyed what we ordered. read more

I hadn't been in so long. When a friend asked where should we go for dinner while walking down Austin and passing Mojo, I knew it was a sign that we had to head eat here. This place was hopping for a Tuesday night and the Latin vibes were vibing. We were seated upstairs and even though it was a lively night I was still able to have an intimidate convo with my friend. The menus were digital and lit up when you opened them. It was such a cool touch. Delaney was our server and she was THE BEST! She definitely needs to win Server of the month because her reccs were spot on. She also spaced everything out perfectly, allowing us to have time to catch up between courses. Finally, she made me a lemonade that wasn't sweet at all and I appreciated her for this. The food was unreal. I mean everything was incredible. We almost liked the plates it was so good. I'm going to make it more of a point to come here. read more

We went for brunch on a Saturday and had a great time. It was very crowded so definitely get a reservation especially with a larger group, we had 7 people and luckily got a reservation a week before. They won't seat until the entire party arrives. There's no parking lot but Queens Blvd usually has some parking if you go early enough. Service is great. Waiters were constantly refilling our water and checking in with us. Our food came out quick and the timing from apps to entrees was perfect. The brunch menu also includes lunch so our group got half brunch/half lunch. The ropa vieja was very good as were all the apps. read more

Great food and vibes. Went here during one of the World Cup games. The places was so hype and fine. The restaurant had many TVs to watch the game. Definitely a vibe to come here and hang out. read more

Ripoff, menus aren't always there, waiters are usually scamming customers . Where's the management looking at?

We came for the drinks and the vibe! Great vibe and great drinks. Their cocktails are classy and stylish! Nice atmosphere and good service.

Very slow service! It took 20 minutes for appetizers, place was half full on a Wednesday afternoon. Food was ok not great! Fries were oily. Chicken taquitos were good. BEWARE!! Gratuity tax 20% is automatically added to your total! and when you swipe your card, you will be asked for additional tip! If you did not see( just like me or already tipsy)that 20% tax is already there, you might be a victim of being nice giving another 7% on top of the 20%!!! read more

Great food and service for brunch! Went here with family and family friends for a Saturday brunch. Food was pretty solid and service was friendly! Would recommend making a reservation beforehand as the place was busy when we arrived and when we left. The vibes of the place are vibrant, and gets even more energetic/club vibes with a DJ playing a set around 2pm or so. Made it a little hard to talk with family due to the noise level, so keep that in mind! read more

I had a pretty good lunch here. I just came across this place as a spur of the moment thing looking for a random restaurant to review and this place certainly stood out. The place is certainly huge, it has a 2nd floor but didn't get to see the upper floor because I was seated at the area near the bar on the first floor. The place gets good business since it was fairly crowded but it didn't affect the flow of service in the area. Due to the people in the restaurant I couldn't really get much pictured of inside the area but it definitely has color and the vibe of a Latin Fusion restaurant in full form. My server was a pretty young woman by the name of Andrea and she was very attentive and courteous, ever the busy worker but would occasionally check on me during my time in the restaurant. I ordered Chicken Empanadas as a starter and Chimichurri Chicken as the entree. Food was plated beautifully and tasted just as good as it looked. As far as Latin food goes, certainly Top 5. It looked good and tasted good and sometimes that doesn't always come hand to hand but they did the job here. Another pretty hefty prices lunch, everything w/ tip came up to $40 but I have no complaints. I had a good experience here. read more

We came here expecting more Cuban-influenced cuisine, but after coming in, I've decided it's more Peruvian than Cuban - but even then, it's not Peruvian "enough" - just pan-Latino leaning Peruvian with Caribbean influences with. Just typing that made me a bit confused - and I was almost the entire night trying to figure out what the best offerings were. Gladly to say, everything we had here was delicious - although, admittingly, it's also overpriced (first time I've seen a churrasco for over $40, and a lomo saltado for over $30 - both being usually common dishes. However, it was one of the better ones I've had in a long time! As for ambience, it feels like a cross between a clubby restaurant and a date-night spot. Would I return? Sure, if I had money to splurge to come frequently, or maybe during their happy hours instead. read more

I opted out of the churro pancakes this time around because I remembered how dry they were. My friend got them and I tried them to see if maybe it was just a one time thing but they were just as dry this time around. I did love everything I got this time around. I got the fried calamari and the tres golpes. Very decent amount of food for the prices. Drinks were really good and if you sign up for their rewards card, you can get a free appetizer for the table. Customer service was okay, just miscommunication due to what seemed like a language barrier but all was well when the chef came out to make sure my friend didn't actually want cheese inside her pancakes lol. read more

First time I come here with my daughter and it was a great experience. It's always crowded so that's a good sign. We sat at the bar, but it was high table with two bar chairs so it was super comfortable. The food is excellent. I have a ceviche my daughter had the chicken and sauce. (Sorry no picture) I highly recommend coming here. Music was good. Bar was a nice vibe. read more

Missed the mark... After a long day of seeing family and exploring and supposedly good reviews, I decided to check this place out. I was greeted when I walked in, but that's where the "service" stopped. I sat at a table in the bar area. I had to ask for water, silverware, and a plate! Not a good start. I was feeling ravenous so I got the chips and guac to start, a passionfruit margarita, and the chicken and rice dish. The passionfruit margarita was such a let down. I think they forgot the passion because it tasted like straight sour mix. It was pretty bad and I was disappointed. The chips and guac were a nice touch and the guac was seasoned well. After devouring majority of the chips, my entree came. While the chimichurri was good, they could have had more. Once the chimichurri ran out, it was just a grilled piece of chicken. Thankfully the accompanying garlic rice and black beans made up for the catastrophe of a "chimichurri chicken breast". After I had enough, I set my plate to the side and waited for the check, and kept waiting until I had to go to the bar to settle. It's disappointing that 18% gratuity was already added in because the service and food was anything but. Oh and before you ask, they weren't that busy.... read more

This restaurant was a great experience on Friday night. Be aware that they request $10 for reservations online through open table. The hostess was flexible about my party being a little late for our reservation. The restaurant wasn't crowded for a Friday night but had a steady stream of patrons. The drinks were good. My coworker and I ordered the mango margarita and the coco mojo. They were beautiful and strong enough. Each is us enjoyed our meals and had some left over. Overall the visit was worth the money. Gratuity is included and the service was good. read more

I've past Mojo several times and decided to try them out today. When you walk in, there are tables on the right and it's nicely decorated. Walk up a few of stairs is the bar and another set of stairs is where you dine. We had the Down the hatch ceviche and it was really good with fried tender calamari. The chicken fried rice was really good and seasoned also. The prices are reasonable and I will definitely return to try other items on the menu read more

Celebrated a 50th birthday at Mojo and had a great time. The drinks were delicious - the chocolate old fashioned and white sangria were amazing - and the appetizers - from salad to chips and guac to fried chicken sliders - were all amazing. I had the chicken chimichurri as my main and thought it was a bit dry, but the rice and beans helped with that a bit, and the churros and chocolate sauce for dessert were tasty as well. Great spot on Austin St! read more

Came here for brunch with friends on a Sunday. They were able to accommodate us walking in around 11:00 a.m. but would recommend making a reservation in advance as this place did fill up relatively quickly afterwards. Had a really nice interior. You dine in the upstairs section of the restaurant. When you walk in, there's a nice bar for you that you can hang out in. Their brunch menu was relatively small but had decent options with Latin Mix/inspired brunch menu items. We ordered their special of the day and their chicken and waffles. We also split an avocado tropical salad. The avocado tropical salad was nothing special. For the price you pay, you're really not getting much bang for your buck. It looked like it was a plopped together. For the Chicken and waffles, the Maduro waffles were what made it unique. The combo of syrup with the savoriness of plantains paired well together. However, the chicken was mediocre, small and not flavored which was disappointing. Dipping it in the turkey bacon gravy is a must for it to taste good. Their huevos Pericos was pretty good in my opinion. However, the tomato sauce also lacked a certain flair. Our friends got the ceviche because it was their most highly rated food item on Google. It was a perfect blend of tropical flavors with the fried umami from their seafood (calamari). The other reviews were 100% correct. Overall, we did leave full, however, there was just a certain lack of flavor in their dishes that makes me hesitant to come back again. read more

My friend arrived first and waited for me. When we entered they brought us upstairs. The food was good but not amazing. There are two floors with plenty of natural lighting. My calamari was super tender but the outer coating was falling off and the dipping sauce tasted fishy. The chicken skewers were juicy and had a nice char on it. The Peruvian ceviche was fresh but the white fish and shrimp lacked flavor. The Tres Golpes which was described as smashed plantains, fried cheese, fried salami, and two sunny side up eggs. I like the fried cheese and salami, even though it was more like bologna. The egg was perfect. Overall it was a good but expensive. read more

I came here with a friend for brunch on a Saturday around 12, we didn't have a reservation but were sat immediately. The ambiance in this restaurant is top tier: they really did a great job with the decor. I use to come to this location when it use to be Exo cafe and I have to say Mojo is soooo much prettier! I don't like that they don't have a prefixed brunch menu that includes drinks-boo! For appetizer, we ordered the wings which were delicious. For entrees we ordered the chicken and waffles and the skirt steak and eggs. The chicken came with a bacon cheese dip and it was soooo good! My steak came with a choice of home fries or salad in which I choose the home fries. The steak was nice and tender, cooked to perfection and so flavorful!! For drinks we had a white sangria, red sangria and then I got the froze, my friend got a mojito with the coconut milk. I forgot the name of it. We enjoyed all the drinks however the white sangria wasn't so strong. I'm sure if we got a pitcher, we would have felt it lol I would come back here again and I always recommend this place to friends who are looking for good food. read more

Surprisingly solid vegetarian options: Chorizo Tostada (Vegan Chorizo & cactus mix, shredded lettuce, vegan mozzarella habanero-avocado sauce, pickled onions, micro cilantro served on white corn tostadas) $13 Mojo Vegan Ceviche (Cured red cabbage topped with avocado, sweet potatoes, onions, cucumber, cilantro tossed in a cocktail sauce, heirloom tomatoes, micro cilantro, crispy cancha) $13 Apple Kale Salad (Spinach, kale, apple, endive, cotija cheese, crispy tajin chickpeas, apple vinaigrette dressing) $17 All three were tasty and well presented. Service was excellent. Could have done without the blaring music and large screen TVs showing UFC fights in the center of the upstairs dining area, but it's a beautiful place, and we'll come back for the food. read more

Decent place for date night. Great lively music ambience. It has that mix of great date night vibes with low key lounge feeling.

Mojo is a great spot for a group of friends or a date night. I think their food is pretty good but I've also had better. Their drinks are good and prices are fair. This was my first time coming for brunch and it wasn't bad. Our server was pretty attentive even with there being so many parties to tend to. I do think their chicken for chicken and waffles could be a bigger portion than what it was. The chicken was for a child not an adult. (See picture ) .The steak and eggs were good in my opinion and id order it again. Sangria was strongggg in a good way. Overall a good experience but nothing to rave about. read more

Absolutely delicious. I had the churrasco plate and my friend had the chicken mojo. Both plates 10/10. Great and music was great.

I got the chicken and waffles and was pleasantly surprised! The waffle is made out of maduros, which I'd never had before. They also validate parking if you're driving into the area! read more

Visited this place with friends recently. The ambiance is beautiful! They definitely paid attention to detail. I would definitely make reservations as the place isn't that big and I could see it getting super busy on a weekend night. Drinks- white sangria, very good!! They sweeten it with passion fruit, so if you like sweet drinks, I'd definitely recommend this. Food- we got the churrasco steak, shrimp tacos, and fried calamari. Everything was VERY GOOD, however their portions for some dishes are quite small. For the price you pay I would've expected a bigger piece of steak. I also wish they would give more maduros with the dish. Shrimp tacos were also small, fried calamari was a decent size. Overall, entrees did taste very good. The dessert... AMAZINNNGGGGG. The 'cuatro leches' and the chocolate cake were so good!! Overall- Food was decent, a little pricey, but I would def recommend this place! Staff also very friendly, especially the hostess' at the front! Very very welcoming, professional and polite! read more

Came here on a Saturday for a ladies brunch to celebrate my sisters birthday. I had made reservations with one of the managers named Lucy during the week. Lucy was very pleasant and helpful with informing me with menu options and any special request we might have had. I chose a pre-fix menu since there were eight of us. It is a two course family style meal. You are able to choose three appetizers and three main main courses. I would have liked to see a dessert option included in the menu. However, the birthday person does get a complimentary cake with a candle. We added the unlimited bottomless drinks option for $20.00 per person for 1.5 hours. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess. The ambiance of this place is beautiful. It is well decorated. Great for photos. We were seated upstairs by the stairs facing down the bar and dj. Dj was playing a mix of music. Music sound is perfect it is not too loud. As soon as our whole party arrived we were served immediately. We had sangria and mimosa. The sangria was delicious and the mimosa was really good. We were served in pitchers. Appetizers came out immediately. For starters, we had fried calamari, guacamole and chips and chicken, and vegan chorizo empanadas. The calamari was absolutely delicious. It was nice and crispy on the outside, and the tartar sauce and pickled onions were really good. Calamari was served with pieces of yuca fries. The empanadas were good, and the guacamole was tasty. For our main entrees, we chose the tres golpes, steak with eggs and chicken, and waffle. The Tres Golpes is Mashed Green Plantains, Pickled onions, Fried Cheese, Fried Salami, Eggs. This was so delicious, the mango was cooked perfectly. The salami tasted delicious. Steak and eggs were really good. Steak is served with chimichurri sauce on top. Steak was tender and very flavorful. Now, onto the chicken and waffles. These waffles are made of sweet plantains. Waffles are served with Butter Milk Fried Chicken Breast and a Sweet Smoked Turkey Gravy. The waffle was delicious on its own. For my sisters complimentary cake, they brought out cuatro leche cake. The cake was moist and delicious. Our overall experience was great. Nice vibes and friendly staff. The food, drinks and music were on point. This is defiently a nice spot for brunch and dinner. A huge thank you to Lucy. You are a doll. Thank you for checking in on us and for your amazing hospitality. read more

Mojo is an awesome place,,, If you like that sort of thing. I'll explain: The customer service was great. The server was always close by checking on us. The food that I ordered was pretty good. I have no real complaints about the establishment. However, it's a "happening" spot. A busy spot. If you're the type that digs quiet or a more laid back atmosphere, it's probably not for you. It's also a little tight in there. The table for 2 where we were sat was pretty small. Overall, I have no complaints and if you're the type of person that likes to be where the action is, give it a shot. A little pricey but a good experience. read more
