Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Mex Taqueria & Bar offers a vibrant and festive atmosphere, with a standout rooftop experience. Guests rave about the "parfect" service and "amazing" cocktails, especially the margarita pitcher. While some find the tacos pricey, they praise the generous portions. Don't miss the street corn dip! Ideal for special occasions.

    Just your average 3 star Mexican restaurant. Food was fine but nothing to write home about, wouldn’t come back unless there were no other available reservations

    I highly recommend dining at Mex (check out their rooftop if you can)! Their service and food are phenomenal. We celebrated with a birthday dinner there and would do it again in a heartbeat. What a perfect end to a great day.

    I have Celiac Disease so eating at restaurants can be risky and challenging. 90% of the menu here is gluten free naturally and the gluten free churros were worth the hour drive!!! Will definitely be back!

    Everything about this place is great! Loved the food and drinks. We went there for my birthday, they gave us a complimentary cake, and sang me happy birthday. It was a memorable experience.
