    This is our go-to place for any special occasion and last night was a birthday!!! We had a lovely table near the fireplace and our favorite server, George. We are made to feel very important. Jose, the maitre’d has the ability to make every customer feel like a VIP. Many restaurants have good food, but here you are made to feel special. We started with shrimp cocktail and the specimens were very large. The sauce as hot as we love!! Entrees were chosen from the specials, a black bass and a sliced filet mignon. Both excellent. We had the bread pudding for dessert, that came with a candle, plate decoration and a singing troupe!!! A very nice Sauvignon blanc washed it all down. A perfect celebration!!!!

    Truly Delightful Experience at Deccan Spice Lounge. I recently had the pleasure of spending some time in the lounge room at Deccan Spice , and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. The ambiance of the room is elegant and welcoming, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The two large televisions add a modern touch, allowing guests to enjoy entertainment while sipping on expertly crafted drinks.. The service was outstanding, with Sagar being particularly attentive and ensuring that all our needs were met with a smile. His promptness and professionalism really enhanced our visit.. The food was absolutely delicious, a testament to the high standards upheld by the restaurant. Every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented, making the entire experience even more memorable. Overall, the lounge room at Deccan Spice provides a perfect combination of comfort, quality, and service. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great place to enjoy food, drinks, and good company.

    We’ve loved the food, the atmosphere and the overall experience every time we’ve dined at Meximodo! The Street Corn app is a must try! I love that it’s served off the cob, with all the trimmings and ready for you to scoop up all the goodness. I’ve had the pollo con mole, the enchiladas with steak and the shrimp tacos the various times we’ve dined here and they’ve all been phenomenal! Always have to finish off with an order of churros! I haven’t gotten a chance to attend a tasting event YET, but I sent friends to one, and they had such a great time! The atmosphere in the restaurant is great - it’s vibrant, lively and decorated superbly! The tequila wall, with some tequilas only reachable by the accompanying library-ladder, is a great focal point and really brings together the whole place. Be prepared for this place to be BUSY on any given night and deff make a reservation even if you think you won’t need it. We just so happened to be celebrating two different birthdays the past two Tuesdays and I was deff glad I made those reservations because we would’ve been waiting a tad. If I had one minor suggestion/comment (not complaint, per se) it would be to consider smaller dinnerware and serveware or bigger tables because as beautiful as the stoneware flat plates are they exceed the footprint of the table when you’re served dinner and still got apps you’re working on, at least at the 4-tops. You end up being a bit busy playing Tetris to try and make everything fit comfortably.
