EXCELLENT and very accommodating service. Great authentic Mexican cuisine! Great selection of drinks. Get space! Very fun. The entire staff is delightful. They know what great service is supposed to be! There is a very good reason that they have been around for 8+ years! They get it right! Kudos to everyone there and here's to many more years of success! read more

Nice clean establishment. The service was attentive, overly attentive when running to take our order, did not grove time to even look at the menu. Kept our drinks refilled though. The food was served quickly and was very tasty. The chicken burrito, a new menu item, was stuffed with char grilled chicken black beans and rice, with queso underneath. The queso tasted great. The chicken enchiladas with green sauce had shredded chicken and a nice flavorful green sauce, needed extra sauce though. The plantains were very good, excellent maduros read more

Not sure what happened to this place? It used to be fantastic & we probably went 1-2x per month. Last visit it was NOT the same. Food quality was just not good. Prices still ok, but seriously sub-par food. Bland & not fresh at all. Flavors of even the lime-rice & black beans (normal side) was just OFF. Not sure if it's new owners, new cooks or new food suppliers. But if you're the owner/manager , please go back to previous practices!! read more

I love the food here. Everything I have tried has been phenomenal. Anything with shrimp is usually my favorite, but it's all very tasty. I would recommend. 10/10 read more

Food was pretty good, avg Mexican food. The problem is I ordered to go and as I'm getting rung out they charge for tortillas when you get ACP?? Okay, that's alright I guess but, $4 for 3 tortillas is not okay I coulda gotten Gordon Ramsey to bring me some for that price. LOL, thinking about all of this as I'm also walking back to my truck just to check the food to see I don't even have silverware. Why would I order to go if I don't need silverware.... read more

Once vochos opened, Si Señor has gone downhill. The service used to be friendly and positive but the staff has recently changed and the service personnel is more aggressive. This is not true Mexican food if that's what you're used to. And the poor service from the tattooed up woman with drawn on pink eyebrows does not compensate for the staff change in the least. read more

Service was terrible. The waitress was upset about lack of staffing and then threw the menus on the table. Chicken was so dried out you could not chew it. We will not be back. It used to be a great spot. read more

Meh. Since I'm not Mexican I cannot attest to the fact that this was a modern twist on old dishes. The food was delicious but I honestly did not see the modern take on traditional Mexican. It was certainly not prepared by Ferran Adrià or his style. Service was excellent. Ambiance was nice. read more

I miss the OG Si Senor when. O Mexican restaurant in town compared to it. Now it's just not great anymore. I would so much rather head a block away to the other amazing local Mexican restaurant any day. Let's start with the salsa. They used to have this amazing white one. Now it's just their regular one and it's average. The chips are really good. Tonight I ordered the quesadilla del mar because I didn't see the usual del mar meal on the menu. This was just not what I wanted. I feel like all of the love is gone. The sweet plantains were OK and the queso was average, too. Everything was just average. read more

The positive reviews on this place confuse me. Immediately upon entering we were turned off by how bad it smelled!! It's food mixed with nail salon aroma. Their "leather" booths are torn up and actually sticky and dirty. The staff was inattentive and unfriendly! We left before ever ordering and we will never be back. Gross! read more

There were about eight or so of us gringas in our party. Myself and one other had a couple of questions about dishes and drinks we weren't very familiar with. Our waiter--I don't remember his name--was very impatient and made it obvious that we were taking up too much of his time (despite not being very busy). We eventually got our food--and it was good--but when we did need our waiter again for refills or extra napkins, it was hard to locate him. I think the manager sensed the situation, as he swung by our table a few times to make us laugh and give us refills. He's the only reason this review is getting 3 stars, instead of 1 or 2. I hope their staffing situation improves, because my friends and I would like to try other dishes, but we don't want to feel bothersome the entire night. read more

Came to eat here after shopping at Walmart. Menu looked really good. They had a QR code to scan for menu but we couldn't load it on phone so we got the paper menu. They had a lot of great things but I chose soft shell taco.. don't see that often in Mexican restaurants.. it had really great flavors but once I bit into the crab it didn't seem right. I cut open and it wasn't cooked all way through. The meat was still kind of clear so we informed the manager who was very courteous and helpful. He took it off our bill and apologized. Like I said not a bad experience or meal it was just something I wanted to bring to cooks attention in hope it wouldn't happen to someone else. We would recommend the restaurant because it had so much to offer, so many things to choose from. The staff was friendly and helpful. I look forward to trying it again in future. read more

This place has some awesome daily specials! We came in on Monday and sat on their patio which has some new dividers from the parking lot. It's very nice and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. We got the chicken and beef fajitas each only $13 and they were sizzling!! Great flavor and all the additions to fill your tortilla. We liked the chicken more. Also, we had a lime and mango margarita at only $3-$4, you can't go wrong! read more

Wow- whoever answers their phone is the RUDEST person I have ever encountered. They made a mistake with my order, an order that I have ordered multiple times in the past. When I called to explain what happened, the crude woman spoke over me, told me it was all my fault because I didn't specify a meat (I hit the reorder tab, so I was getting exactly what I ordered in the past) and she continued to talk over me, was the rudest person I've ever encountered. She cut me off and started accusing before I could even explain what happened. Then raised her voice at me and she told me I could drive there and get a new one. When I told her I didn't want to go there because she is being rude- she hung up on me. I am fuming. I loved Si Señor and this miserable, horribly mean human being is the reason I will not return. What a shame. I have never been treated so cruelly in my entire life. Plus- I'm out an expensive meal from Grub hub. Also- I'm a vegetarian and ordered the burrito gordo regular, which is vegetarian. She put chicken in it and blamed me for it. Again, I hit the reorder tab. What a witch of a human being she was. I'm shaking. read more

Hidden gem. Great cocktails, great food, great service. Good place to take the family and have a great time.

We had dinner here last weekend while in town and we will definitely be back! This was my first in-restaurant dining experience during COVID and they handled it really well. Certain tables are closed off, staff is wearing masks and gloves, the require you to wear a mask when not at your table, you access the menu through your phone and they even offer contact free paying by just scanning a QR code at the bottom of your check. Food wise everything was fresh and delicious. They come over with chips and salsa when you are seated and we ordered their guac to go along with that. The guacamole was so good, fresh and the perfect consistency for me (mostly smooth but with some chunk). For the meal I got 2 tacos, gabacho and carne asada which came with a side of rice and beans. To mix and match different tacos it's a $1 charge, which was fine. My husband got the rice in paradise bowl which he loved and I would probably get this next time (I tried some of his and loved it). He got the ancho beef short rib, corn, bell peppers and sweet plantains and that comes on top of aaroz verde with chihuahua cheese and a side of chipotle cream sauce. Overall we had a great experience (and will be back!). read more

Usually I think of Mexican food as being utilitarian comfort food. The go to taco, the basic enchilada. And the deeply satisfying mole, if you are lucky to find it made from scratch. I would not have thought to pair the word exquisite with any particular dish made in Wilmington from any Mexican restaurant. Until now. So let's begin. This restaurant is a hidden delight. Tucked all the way in Porter's neck, located across the way from Wal-Mart. Near a Sally's Beauty Supply. And a Dollar Store. Yup. So far you'd think it's gonna be Mexican comfort fare. The crazy name, the location.... just burritos and tacos...... Wrong. Get amped up for a thoughtful and innovative Mexican culinary experience. Full of Swerve. Well thought out decor is a pleasing welcome. The Host welcomed us and asked if it was our first time visiting. We said yes, and First the drinks. Whoo. Strong and beautiful with a skillful balance of flavor. I had the watermelon / mint something or another, and a friend had the sangria, another friend had a mojito. All were super. I had the Lecho con Mole. With Kale. Kale. Who the heck ever heard of kale at a Mexican restaurant? Nope, me either. Well let me tell you, they did the Mole to perfection and the kale had an original swing. Portions so big for lunch that they fed me for two days. I didn't pay any attention to what my friends were eating. Each of us lost in our own culinary experience. I cannot wait to go back. read more

The food here is delicious. I've eaten here a few times and also come for drinks only. All of the above have been great. The Friday sangria special for $5 is the bomb. I've had fajitas and pork belly tacos. The tacos were out of this world. I usually am not big on rice and beans but theirs is really good. Serving sizes feel best for lunch. I'll definitely be back! read more

This place has really yummy food. The atmosphere was great and the all the servers were really friendly. I had the Mexican flag chimichanga and the flavor was really complex. The braised brisket had a wonderful spice to it. I think I even tasted a hint of cinnamon. The three sauces were delicious. The red sauce was a bit spicy for me but that's just a personal taste. I will definitely be back. read more

Updating based on visit 11/14/20. The table we were seated at had crumbs on it. It took about 10 minutes before our waitress came over to take our drink order even though there was only a few people dining in. Appetizer: Corn was missing a lot of kernels. Perhaps it should be taken off the menu when not in season? Entrees: My quesadilla was clearly microwaved or sitting under a heat lamp for an extended period of time (scalding plate and set/firm sour cream). The steak inside was over cooked, likely from being reheated. There was very little cheese. I couldn't even tell there was cheese on it until the last few bites where it must have pooled. My husband enjoyed his meal (rice in paradise) but it was literally half the size it was the last time we were there. He left still hungry. My son loved his burrito. The chips and salsa were good. Not sure what happened tonight. read more

So so so good the food is delicious the ambience is so cute but the service is so slow and so tiering to wait for

Daily specials looked nice. Got a $3 special strawberry margarita. It was tasty but for $3 there definitely wasn't a lot of alcohol in it. Chimichanga was a large portion but didn't come with any rice or sides. Hubby got enchiladas and he really liked them and they came with a nice side of guac and rice. Decor is nice. Service was slow but it was National Margarita and Taco Tuesday so maybe just short staffed. Outdoor seating area available and plenty of veg options. read more

My friend and I stopped in here for dinner one evening and had an excellent experience :-) the decor was bright and fun. Upon being seated we were provided with a trio of Salsas to try. One salsa was a red staple that you would get almost everywhere. Another was a white dipping sauce that our waitress likened to yum yum sauce with their own twist. My personal favorite was the tomatillo salsa with fresh pineapple. For my meal I opted to get tacos with carnitas and an unheard-of combination: mashed potatoes. It really was delish! My friend ordered a seafood dish with shrimp in a citrus butter sauce with rice and a sloth on the side. We are both pleased with our meals. When I return I definitely want to try the lobster ceviche! read more

I had to update my review! Went from 5 stars to 3 . The food is good but some of the staff has poor attitudes ! I ate inside one time the waiter was super rude and acted like he didn't want to be bother with us ! Recently I order pick up who ever taken my order was very rude also sound like the same guy . And I do not like the fact that they charge you 3 damn dollars for a take out charge!? Where they do that act ???! Probably want be back read more

Ordered takeout at this Mexican spot and thought the food was just OK. For the prices, you can find better Mexican food elsewhere. I ordered the ceviche which was pretty pricy and the portion was TINY - I was very disappointed. The other food that my family ordered tasted fine, but nothing spectacular. read more

First time eating here. We were initially on our way to go shopping, but decided to go ahead and eat out this evening. We decided to give this place a try as it was fairly new to the area. Upon walking in you're met with a very busy, but pleasing atmosphere of colors and visual stimulants. We really thought it was pretty cool inside. Aesthetically pleasing for a Modern Mex appeal. We were immediately seated in a booth which we prefer. The server took our drink orders and once he returned with our drinks we were ready to order our meals. The wife ordered the Tortilla Soup, our son ordered the Chicken Burrito without beans, and I ordered the Chicken Burrito with beans. I also ordered a beer from their short draft list. They also provided us with a great chips and salsa dish to munch on while we briefly waited for our food. When the food was delivered to our table it was similar to modern art with a Mexican flare. The burrito's, soup, and beer with chips and salsa certainly appealed to our appetites and satisfied our hunger issues we were suffering from prior to arriving here. I think we'll return here in the future. The price was decent and the service was good. If you haven't been here, just give them a try. You might be surprised. read more
