   My meal was superb--Chilean seabass Nayarit Salad. My daughers each ordered a Mexican dish (shrimp enchiladas-Camarones a la Diabla) and both were so spicy it ruined the meal for them. We didn't complain and probably should have asked about the spice level.

   The waiter Jorge was great with customer service, above and beyond taking his time to explain with details regarding drinks, food menu.The drinks were good as expected, the food, However the manger that was there on duty didn’t a knowledge us and other customers by greeting or asking how was everything with the service or food. The place is nice and would recommend it to my friends and family.

   The place is beautiful, but the service was not that great. The drinks did not taste so good. The food was kind Of too salty. It was good for one time.

   This was our first time to Lagos... and it will be out last. When we walked in we were pleasantly surprised how nice the restaurant looked. But in the end a restaurant is judged based on quality of food and service. The food was simply subpar and hard to call this Mexican. The tacos were bland and overpriced. The shrimp tacos and enchiladas were unseasoned bay shrimp stuffed in a tortilla. The steak tacos were under seasoned, tough, and plain. Two enchiladas plates were returned because the food came out cold. The rice is not Spanish or Mexican rice but basmati. The beans were bland and refried beans not appealing or edible. The tamales tasted a week old, were dry, chewy, and had unseasoned stringy chicken. They were not dressed like you would expect in a high end restaurant. I've had far better tacos and enchiladas at any fast food or fast casual restaurant for a fraction of the cost spent at Lagos. As far as service, our server was ok but inexperienced. We did tip full value since we had a large party, despite not recognizing our birthday guest as reserved and notified upon arrival. They did recognize quests birthdays and multiple tables all around. We left believing they passed that up since we returned two plates and a glass of wine that was in a dirty glass. A highlight were the drinks though. They came out fresh, appealing to the eye, and generally well received by the party. Overall, for essentially tacos and a few drinks this was the worst value I had ever spent at a restaurant..... bar none! When I spend a few hundred dollars on dinner I expect to be wowed... not ripped off.....

   It was the best choice to celebrate my daughter's 21st. Jorge, the waiter was excellent and met our expectations. The drinks were amazing, and the food was incredibly delicious. I'm definitely coming back. ☆☆☆☆☆
