I came here with my family on the same Saturday the Christkindmart was happening, so we were expecting somewhat of a wait. We waited about 30 minutes for our table at the bar which was not an issue. What was kind of weird was that there were a bunch of empty tables all around the restaurant, yet we still could not be seated. Maybe they were just understaffed that day which is why they could not have every table full? But anyways, once we got to our table, the food came pretty quickly. Our server Orion was great, and so was the food and drinks! I highly recommend the black raspberry margarita and chicken mole enchiladas. Definitely would consider coming here again! read more

We went to the rooftop here yesterday for drinks and they had a great setup. They had plenty of bartenders serving and lots of space upstairs to sit and socialize. They had a good atmosphere but on a sunny day there isn't enough shade space. We enjoyed the drinks here and their prices were reasonable. read more

Okay first of all, we were not allowed to split our checks 3 ways... that's absolutely ridiculous. We were ONLY allowed to split 2 ways evenly. That's honestly absurd. I have never been to a place where we weren't allowed to split our checks. Very frustrating. I agree with the rest of the reviews saying this place was meh. I appreciated the fact that it's a very community-oriented place, but very loud and party themed. My friends and I wanted to sit and eat out for Saturday night and this place looked cool, but unfortunately it was just too loud if you want to chat and have a meal. The people upstairs were SCREAMING over the balcony. Which was unfortunate. I ordered the grilled tofu tacos but it was bland. Just 3 sad pieces of not grilled tofu on top of cabbage that was claimed to be "slaw." I also agree with other reviews that it's overpriced for bland food :( read more

Waited downstairs at a basically empty bar for 20 minutes. Once I was waited on by Ana she told me there was no margarita mix and that it would take between 20-30 min to get it. read more

Worst service I've ever had. Stood unacknowledged for 15-20 mins at the bar with two bartenders, and less than 10 customers that were already helped. Then my drinks were served to the wrong people and were silent as our group of four left. Would leave 0 stars if possible. read more

I got to Mas with friends pretty often! The vibe is fun, I like their margaritas, and everyone who works there is friendly. It is definitely not my favorite Mexican food in West Chester, but they have some good veggie options. It's great for a Nacho and Margarita night! read more

Great place for fun, excellent food and great music! Margaritas are amazing !! Service is exceptional.

On my recent visit I experienced fast, friendly service and the BEST quesadilla: crisp, hot and a portion so generous I thought I would definitely need a take- out container but I couldn't help myself. So good I finished it all. read more

Mas is meh. I love Mexican food so was definitely up to trying this place out and came away pretty disappointed. It gets LOUD with the music so expect that. They have a first and second floor bar so you have plenty of space for your happy hours and the service seemed pretty responsive. But they ask for prime prices for just okay food and drink. My house margarita was pretty basic and just chock full of ice. The chimichanga was more greasy than crispy and 75% undercooked rice vs 25% chicken and veg. I think the worst sin was charging $1.50 just for some salsa verde on the side. Really? I will say the bathroom was awesome, a heater on the floor and it was the cleanest I have seen any place in a very very long time. The food tasted good, I recommend fajitas because the chicken and veg were well charred. The fundido was also yum. But I just can't say it was worth the noise and price to return. read more

Más is "meh" seems to be the running thread in most reviews, and I agree. It's better to just go for drinks, because the food is incredibly mediocre yet quite overpriced for the quality. The chips and salsa were good, but that's the most I would pay for. The drinks are good, but again overpriced for how much alcohol is actually in them-they are pretty sweet. The service was slow with no explanation. After the host seared us, it took 10-15 minutes before anyone came over to our table. It also took a while to get the check at the end of the night because our server hadn't walked by in a while. The ambiance was cool, but varies a lot over the course of the year. read more

Staff and service were excellent but the food is not good. My food was obviously something cooked before and then reheated. It was lukewarm, flavorless, microwave texture and the rice was hard, not freshly cooked. read more

Craving colorful surroundings, lots of tequila choices and average Americanized Mexican food? This bar and restaurant has you covered. Live music, rooftop dining, multiple floors, and bar rooms. It's a fun establishment and their staff is attentive and friendly. The drink menu has more choices then the food menu, but there is enough variety for vegans, folks with dietary restrictions and ravenous carnivores all to be able to share a table and chow down. The average price of an entree is $15. We ordered a virgin mojito, a virgin cosmopolitan, tacos and taco salad. The drinks were okay, the food was tasty but not spectacular. The atmosphere makes the place special. If you enjoy a cocktail or beer the bar would be a fun place to try some variety of drinks. Next time your in West Chester PA you can check it out. read more

Oh my... The food here was really good. So filling! I didn't like that there was only outdoor seating, wish there was something written on their website about that, since it was seriously hot outside when I went at like 5 pm on a weekday. Wish they had some fans upstairs. Other than the outdoor seating, the food was really good and had great service. They did keep bringing out the ice water which was very much appreciated. I will definitely come back with a sunhat and sunglasses. read more

Used to come here once a month. Lately it seems it's everyone's first day on the job. No one knows what's going on. They have to go back to check on every question and it takes forever. Food and atmosphere are still good, but it doesn't seem well managed. read more

Bartenders Libby and Drew are fantastic. Opened the roof top bar with great vibes and good drinks. 10/10 recommend for spring/summer time

Had to eat outside cause inside wasn't open which isn't for me. Food was just ok: beans tasted very lime-y?, carnitas enchiladas were very fatty. They brought out chips and salsa to start like most places .. we then ordered queso which, in my opinion, should get its own basket of chips. NOPE! We had to pay extra?! Bizarre. read more

Greeted with a smile and seated right away. The atmosphere was very pretty and welcoming a lot to look at keeps your eyes busy. We ordered Burgers the johny cash and huevos ranchero burger, had chips, salsa and queso dip. Just delicious the burgers were hot and full of flavors!! Will definitely be back. Our server was a little forgetful at times but not to bad!! Only thing i would ask for is small plates for when your eating salsa and chips and no salt and pepper on the tables or extra napkins, that should always be on a table in a restaurant!! When we left we were also thanked for our visit which I appreciate the kindness and attention !! from entrance to leaving very happy with our experience !! read more

I've lived in West Chester for three years, and when factoring in when I went to WCU and have been in the borough for 18 years. I've seen restaurants come to be, and fall. I've seen restaurants change for the better and worse. There's one consistent factor: Mas' roof is awesome. Now they've taken it a step farther from "back in the day". The managers and bartender staff are beyond exemplary. It couldn't be more obvious that they care about their customers, but they are also extremely efficient and hard working. There are a lot of great bars in West Chester, but Mas has to be a stop. Get the nachos. Get the Signature Margarita. Enjoy the ambiance. You won't regret it. It's worth it. read more

Disappointed with our experience. We have eaten here 5-6 times over the past 10 years and we always want it to be better. Drinks - extremely weak. Sent back 2 mojitos and 2 margaritas before the manager made them. Tasted as if they had no alcohol. Food - took way too long to come out. Overall just average Mexican. Prices increased- don't remember them charging for chips. Other local Mexican places provide for free. The best part of our experience was the friendly waiter and manager. They were extremely nice and professional read more

Ambience and service are great but the food is not that good unfortunately. We ordered a few dishes such as guacamole and fajita and they were equally unimpressive. read more

Food was excellent and service was attentive. Loved the salsa. Food took a little long, especially considering it was not very full. Definitely would go back for the enchiladas read more

The rooftop dining area is a cool experience and worth stopping in for the view of downtown. The queso dip was nice and thick and had a nice flavor. The wings were fantastic! I would honestly go again just for them. The buffalo was very flavorful and had a nice amount of spice. The honey Chipotle were also very nice. The tacos are the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. The meat on the Al Pastor and Carne Asada were both really dry. The Mahi was okay but under seasoned and the veggies didn't compliment it well. The shrimp was nicely seasoned but the veggies were bland and didn't jive well at all. read more

Food was across the board average Mexican food. No complaints but not too excited by the enchiladas or burrito. The wings were nicely fried and seasoned; we got the honey chipotle wings. Our celery and carrots seemed to have not been fresh...they were a little soggy. Staff was responsive and food came fast! This is one of those places where the location and atmosphere made us stop by. Won't be going back for the food but for a rooftop bar...not bad. (To be clear everything was either average or approaching not good.) read more

Drew was amazing!!! My second time here at Mas will definitely be back with this great service!

My friend wanted to have her birthday here so we made reservations for a group of 10 an entire week in advance. The night of her birthday comes and they sat us at one 6 top and a 4 top... split up! We kindly asked if we could push the tables together so we could all enjoy this celebration Together, as our reservation was made for 10. They said no. NO? There were Maybe 3 other tables sat in the entire restaurant, so they were not busy at all and they gave us no explanation for not allowing us to sit together even though they allowed us to make a reservation for 10. I showed them an empty table right next to us which could be slid 3 feet to accommodate us and they still told us no. And no one sat at that empty table the entire time we were there! Food was overpriced and average. Tacos are smaller than my hand. Our server knew nothing about the menu. We asked questions about drinks, she had no idea. We asked questions about the food, she had no idea. She told us she would go back and ask and half the time when she came back she forgot to even ask! The worst part was that after we were done, they started pushing many tables together for a party of over 20. We were there maybe an hour and they refused to accommodate our Reservation for 10 for a Birthday! But had no issues rearranging the entire first floor for another party. Just absolutely incompetent and clueless staff who don't want to be there and don't care to make your time enjoyable or honor their reservation policy. Most of us wanted to find somewhere else but our friend who's birthday it was wanted to eat there and try their food. None of us will ever go again. Take your business ELSEWHERE! read more

Kinda pricey. Good service but the waiter asked if we wanted queso and it ended up being $10 just for the dip. Tacos were okay and quesadilla was very good. read more

One star. My daughter ate here last week and called fo tell me about her mediocre food. We decided to give them another chance today. The chips and salsa aren't free like at other re staurants and are okay. The nachos with chicken were actually good. Her chimichangas were bland. The sauce on top tasted like spaghetti sauce. The waitress did not pronounce "Pollo" correctly which made us giggle until she brought out the wrong dish for a friend (an item they would never eat) and told them "You ordered that!" ... ummm no. Maybe DON'T argue with your customer? Then I got my carne asada fajitas. Another friend got tacos with the same meat. Both of us had rubbery meat. I ended up eating bean burritos I made with my rice, beans, cheese and tortillas. The best part? When my daughter showed me the hot sauce from the caddy on the table that expired in 12/21!!! Nope. Never again!!!! read more

My thoughts on Mas Mexicali Cantina are long overdue, since I have visited the establishment during almost every foray into West Chester since 2010. It is a welcoming spot, where ambience, and amenability and culinary pleasures create great happiness within me! During the past nine years I have tried almost everything on the menu, so rather than compose an extensive catalogue I shall confine myself to the highlights of my cantina hauntings. The Chorizo Queso Fundido is a perfect beginning to every meal. The fulsome lusciousness of the dip creates in the imagination a wish to pour it over a chimichanga during the next course; anything to continue to experience its flavor. One cannot go astray in choosing any of the "minis" or the luxuriant guacamole either, so there exists a vast landscape of nibbles or paquitos through which to travel. On to the entrees, which fill the belly with bliss. The Kitchen Sink Burrito is an explosion of flavors, healthy and hearty fare to fuel your adventures further into the day or night. Likewise, the flavor ensemble within a Breakfast Burrito makes an exceptional start to any weekend afternoon. Tacos may be ordered a la carte or via multi-trays, and truly they are all exceptional. Basics such as the Veg, El Taco, Carne Asada or Al Pastor are just as tasty as the Blackened Mahi or Sesame Short Rib tacos. The enchiladas are my favorites East of the Mississippi, saucy and scrumptious, and the Mole here is really the only chicken based dish that I enjoy eating. It is that good! The strength of the fajitas lies in their fresh ingredients, pulled from local farms and oozing amazing flavor! One cannot visit a cantina multiple times without sampling margaritas, and there are myriad choices from which to choose at Mas. All of the classic styles are served, with your choice of tequilas which run the range from white lightning to top-of-the-tower shelf. The Blood Orange Margarita is delicious, and if Natasha mixes a Black Raspberry Margarita for you, then you may just be inspired to write an original song on your bar napkin! The Roof is an exceptionally fun time in the Summer, really a great place to marinate in Mas' delights. The Second Story Bar has a more intimate, comfortable feel, and has the vibe of a cool midrange L.A. mecca of Mexicana. The energy and illumination of the spacious Primera ground floor will send you off happily into the evening or night! Mas is an experience to share with friends and family, or to stop in for tacos and a Negra in the bottle. If you haven't been: GO! Enjoy, amigos! read more

After hearing about how great Mas is for so long we finally tried it. The service was very nice and the rooftop seating is charming. Overall the food was mediocre. The enchiladas were nothing special and the burrito was very bland. I did enjoy the taquitos appetizer. Portion sizes are quite small. Don't get tricked into a side of sour cream. It's $1.50. read more

3.5 stars rounded up to 4 during COVID-19. My fiancé, my sister and I were walking around downtown West Chester today and wanted to stop for a snack. Mas has a rooftop deck so we decided to check that out since it was a nice afternoon and we hadn't been to this restaurant yet. When we walked in on the first level, two hostesses explained the rules about dining in: masks on at all times, food must be purchased if consuming alcoholic beverages, and no socializing/moving around table-to-table. All pretty standard and fine by us. She then opened the door to the stairwell and told us to see the hostess on the roof. We were seated right away which was nice. The hostess brought paper menus and wrapped silverware with her so we could start figuring out what we wanted. I do wish the tables were a little further apart, but I'm not sure if they can move them. I ordered the Mas Signature Frozen Margarita as my drink. It was good - a little bland but overall nice on a sunny day. I also tried a few sips of the Blood Orange Margarita and the Black Raspberry Margarita which seemed like good options as well. We got nachos to share and added Carne Asada. I really liked how the chips stayed crispy, but that was partly because a lot of them underneath didn't have any toppings. It might be nice to get a little cup of salsa or some other sauce on the side for dipping. I thought the quality of the steak was really good - it was seared nicely on the outside and still a little rare in the center. Although we only tried a few things here, we had an overall pleasant experience. If you're looking for a quick bite and a beverage on a warm day, I think the roof of Mas Cantina is a solid option. read more
