    Our dining experience at Meximodo was very rushed to say the least. We arrived around 6:15 and we were out the door at 6:50! The rice dish was so undercooked. The rice grains were hard and difficult to chew. I told our server, who by the way, was lovely. She brought us another one which was better but still contained many uncooked grains. I understand the need to turn over tables, but last night was ridiculous. We left there feeling rushed and not relaxed at all. Noise level and service were very frenetic and unenjoyable.

    Estuvo increíble, fui a celebrar lo cumpleaños con mi familia colombiana y mi esposo norteamericano y todo los encantó. La atención estuvo excelente, nuestro mesero hablaba español e inglés y nos hizo muy buenas recomendaciones.

    Everything was great! The atmosphere is incredible. The restaurant was decorated beautifully. Perfect date night spot. I had a watermelon margarita, queso fundido, and verde chicken enchiladas. Very tasty.

    What great first time dinner here! The waitress went over the menu and gave us her favorite dishes! Many spicy dishes but they can be altered to your taste. Choosing a cocktail was difficult as they were all interesting! They do have Tequila flights but we chose Margaritas. Tacos were excellent and served with sauces. You must try the chocolate lava cake with spicy tequilas in the sauce. Just devine! Definitely be back again!

    I had low expectations but I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered steak and eggs medium. Steak was very well cooked and seasoned. I have no complaints. Service was a bit slow I’m guessing due to the time we dined and it being their busy period but our server was extremely friendly and that made up for the slowness. We will be back!

    The hype of this place isn’t worth it. They do not customize anything. The portion size is small for the price, the food was just ok. The tres leches French toast was gross!!
