Best Mexican meal I have had since my trip to Guadalajara! Service at lunch was extremely attentive! And the restaurant transition from Diner to Mexican Cantina is great! Finally a great Mexican restaurant nearby! read more

First off so glad a new food establishment has come to town. The ambience is very nice, authentic Mexican style decor. Drinks were strong but at $12 a pop for a margarita will only afford one. Food was delicious but sadly overpriced for the portion size. $76 for 2 people with one marg each, no apps, no dessert. If you order empanadas or tacos they do not come with any rice or beans. 3 tacos for $23 is a bit steep in my opinion. Tasty but not worth the price. Empanadas you get 2 for $11 and nothing else on the plate but sauce. Not enough for a meal for my husband. Will consider this place as a once in a while joint when not very hungry! read more

Great lively place if you don't want to be able to hear the person next to you. The food is way over priced. they add cilantro in everythinggggggggg... and its way too much. The worst part about this place is your frozen margs aren't frozen. You're better off getting a marg on the rocks. The word frozen shouldn't even be in the title on the menu. The nachos were good. read more

Food was bland at best. We tried the "special guacamole" and it was flavorless. The cheese dip was so over powered by cherizo it lost me. The main course was all about rice but really again , no flavor or anything. Drinks good but 95% ice and only 5% drink. Server was nice and followed up with us often but I probably wouldn't go back due to lack or flavor in food. Nice ambiance. read more

First time and last time patron. Very overpriced for the food quality. A Mexican restaurant should never offer rice and beans as an ala carte item. Chips were so so, not great. Ambiance was ok. Was interesting to see how they retro fitted into that old diner. read more

Worth the wait. Great service really attentive staff. Tacos were one of the best I've had. Everything is fresh especially the salsa on the table. read more

Went there with my family of three people first time. Looks nice from the outside and inside. The waitress and the help are friendly. Very colorful decorations does put you in a relaxed mood. The food was mediocre and quite overpriced for my budget. Once to try is fine but it's not something I will crave and spend money on. read more

food was delicious (what I had anyway...3 tiny tacos with no sides for 20 bucks is kind of obnoxious) the birthday rooster was a bonus to watch, everyone was great except our waitress. since she never gave her name I cant even warn everyone, but she had long black hair and basically blew us off for half an hour. first she didn't bring a refill of my drink, then took our dessert order and said my drink would come, and it never did. she was attentive to every other table except us for a full half hour until I guess she realized she never put our dessert in and you could see her look of horror on her face. rather than apologize and own it, she again ignored us until the dessert was brought out by a runner shortly after and I had to ask her again for my drink. I NEVER tip 15 percent but even that was generous given how bad she was. i'd go back, but i'd ask for someone else if we got her again. apparently there's also an overflow parking lot hidden in the back left corner of the lot which I saw as I left. my friend had to drive home and get a ride over because parking was so horrendous. read more

Reservations are not required but strongly recommended unless you want a very long wait for a table. Use the Open Table app or call direct. Book a day or more in advance for best seating times. We enjoyed our first visit here. Lively and loud atmosphere. Nice spots inside to take pics for social media if you like. We felt this restaurant's atmosphere and menu was more suited to adult dining vs bringing young kids. Dinner for 4 adults with 3 apps, 4 entrees, 4 desserts, and 4 sodas (they do charge for refills) was $190 before tipping. They charge 4% service fee if you use your debit or credit card so bring cash if you prefer. Parking can be challenging here. Carpool if you can if you're meeting a group. Overall the food was great. Nicely seasoned and prepared, with attention to presentation. Service was excellent and very attentive. Server was pleasant and offered suggestions. We look forward to returning. Maybe next time for lunch or brunch. read more

See all

Food/flavor was ok. Came out fast at least but the tacos were sparse on content. Felt very rushed. Might need some time to get the kinks out... read more

The food was delicious had steak fajitas so tender the steak was . Service was excellent. Will definitely be back

The margaritas are amazing. The food and service is great too. It does get very busy, but that itself is telling you something!

LOVE THIS PLACE! Sheridan is so personable and fun. Great happy hour deals. Delicious food. I will be back! A++++

Not bad but not worth the long wait. They should take reservations. The service was good.

The restaurant looks very appealing from the outside with its Mexican theme mural on what what was once a typical 80's style route 9 diner. Very crowded the night we went. The bar has only 6 stools (which were all taken, so getting a drink was rather disappointing since there was no place to enjoy it. The waiters do an excellent job bringing out the food quickly. But that's about the best thing this place has going for it. Our dinners both came out good iced cold and didn't taste authentic. Food lacked flavor and their different hot sauces were very weak with not heat at all. In addition, we wanted to take our leftovers home so they took it to the kitchen and wrapped it. The next day, we discovered that only 1/2 of our food made it to the containers. Sorry to say, this was not a good place to eat. read more

The appetizers, main course, dessert and coffee were very good. The place was quite busy for a Tues evening, so making a reservation was a good idea. Only issue was were still eating our appetizers and the servers delivered the main course on top of the unfinished apps. I know they want to turn over the table and move customers but this made us feel quite rushed. All good otherwise! read more

If Chucky Cheese is your thing, this place is for you. Loud, loud, loud...children crying and parents screaming. There were 3 birthdays while we were there and . The service was rushed, Our table was being cleaned as we ate. The food was dry. There were no side dishes. Do you want to know what their "secret quac" recipe is? Just a small scoop of quac with tomatoes. Ok the secret is out. We were literally there for 38 minutes. You would get better Mexican food at 7-11. Overpriced for what you get. If I could give no stars that would be too many. read more

Immediately loved the colorful building when we arrived. inside, the ambiance drew us in. We sat at the bar and enjoyed various Margheritas with mango, raspberry and guava juices. Did not disappoint. The bartender Sheridan was hustling and lively and friendly and made some great recommendations. The chorizo nachos and guac which were fabulous. The short rib tacos were quite literally out of this world. Would definitely return. Great experience! read more

Words truly can not describe the amazing service from all , especially the bus people, the atmosphere is jumping the ambiance is incredible and food is out of this world, I highly recommend you visit this establishment read more

I've been here 3 times. It is pretty consistent. Service staff is well trained and is attentive - even on Saturday nights with an hour and a half wait. Food came quickly all three times - and was delicious. It is pretty loud on the weekends. You have to talk a little loudly to be heard. I've had pastor tacos, chicken burrito and steak burrito. All excellent. Monday is Margarita Monday - buy one get one free. But otherwise they do charge for refills of soft drinks which is annoying. To us its a further drive than some other Mexican restaurants, but worth it for the food IF you have a reservation. read more

Beware!!!! Although the food was good, they tried to scam us on the bill. We didn't look at the bill closely enough at first...our fault. The bill included (not a suggestion) 20% tip for a party of 4. When we confronted the waitress, she tried to blame another server. Ridiculous! read more

Started off by ordering 2 agua de Jamaica & the street corn appetizer. Appetizer was delicious but the Jamaica seemed like Koolaid with how sweet and syrupy it was. Got this taken off the tab as we both took 1 sip and couldn't drink anymore, nice waitress. My friend ordered the steak plate medium rare and it was received rare. They gave her a new plate fully cooked, within 10 mins. The chimichanga was delicious! No difference between the burritos & chimichanga other than the cheese poured on top which was a $5 difference. Dessert was phenomenal! Strawberry & nutella empanadas. Overall satisfactory! read more

We came here twice, back to back nights because it was so incredible! Food is high quality and by far the best Mexican cuisine around.

The waitress was terrible and I asked for change so I can leave a cash tip and she gave me back my same bill forcing me to leave a 25%+ tip... mind you the service sucked. Annoyed and never going back again. read more

Went for lunch on a Monday. Very lively. Great vibe!!!! The food and service in this restaurant is spectacular. Best staff in the area. tThe manager and the servers are so friendly. Great margaritas!!!! read more

Restaurant has been updated from a diner to a very comfortable Mexican restaurant. Ambiance is pleasant from the time you park the car with the outside saying enjoy our experience to sitting and having an enjoyable meal. I had the lunch steak burrito which was great. The sides were very good. Great size portions. read more

Food was off the charts excellent! Service was outstanding! Our waiter Brian was awesome! Great portions. Very clean! Will definitely come back! Highly recommend! read more

Went last night! The place is beautiful.. they did a great job.. service was excellent! Food was good!! Somethings better than others ..personally 36.00 for fajitas that do not come w rice and beans, too me is ridiculous... but that is the world we live in now .. drinks were weak .. did have a nice night but 180.00 for 2 at a Mexican restaurant in Old Bridge was a little bit too pricey in my opinion.. read more

Great experience. First time here. Sheridan made us feel so welcomed. Will definitely be back. Great drinks and food

Great Service, food was absolutely amazing, had the carne asada plate and the steak melted in my mouth like butter. Would definitely recommend and eat at again ! very happy to have this in Old Bridge and hopefully this is a restaurant that will stay put in that location !! read more

Beautiful restaurant, a bit slow because they just opened, but friendly service and solid food.

The food was excellent as well as the service! I've been to the locations in Staten Island and this one is just as good! The drinks are also delicious! read more

Great establishment. Food is great ambience is def there. Attentive servers and staff highly recommend.

We went for lunch yesterday and the food was delicious and the staff was so friendly. we will definitely be back!

Let me preface this review by saying I was supposed to meet a friend some place else but we got it switched up so landed here for a late lunch. A coworker of mine was not impressed with this place and I trust her opinion so I would not have chosen this place on my own. Irregardless, I get there and the ambiance is cute. It's literally the bridge way dinner painted with grandma's plastic covering on the benches. Feels a little low grade for a place charging 20 dollars for 3 (no sides) small Al pastor tacos. I know that dish is hit or miss so I opted for what should have been a safe choice. I ordered the carnitas. Shredded slow roasted pork. Uh... someone just cut up the pork in chunks. It wasn't flavorful or authentic. And if you're calling it "fusion" it misses the mark with flavor. I did not care for it and sent it back. The waitress was very kind about it. So was the nice man who brought me my salad. The 13 dollar strawberry lime salad. The dressing was good but it was lettuce, a light sprinkle of tortilla pieces, and a few slices of strawberries. The dressing was good but it was a disappointment as a whole. We also ordered the strawberry and cucumber guacamole at the waitress' suggestion. It was guacamole with huge chunks of cucumbers that were difficult to pick up with the chips. They do give you a wooden spoon to pick up the dip, but making the fruit bite sized would seem to make more sense. The strawberries were also huge pieces. I want to stress that the staff was kind and attentive. However, the high prices with disappointing product will keep me from returning. I cook for a living. I know good food. If I'm paying New York prices with their portions the food better be fantastic. It is anything but. Save your money and hit one of the 100 other Latin food places that give you larger portions and better food. read more

overpriced small portions for the money. 16 bucks for quesadillas no rice or beans with enter. stale chips and soggy chicken wings. there are much better Mexican eateries in the area . skip this one . read more
