    The food is amazing, we sat in the second floor where is less noisy but it gets hot. We asked our waiter to lower the heat and he took care of it right away. I love this place

    All good, great decor. Food is ok. Maybe due to holiday business they messed up our orders twice. With drinks as well. But I will not hold it against them. Overall, fun visit with decent food and great atmosphere. Don’t expect anything wow, but a good place.

    The food was great. We loved their Christmas decorations and our kids absolutely loved their Grinch greeting guests.

    Restaurant is under staff, and the food and drinks were okay. Overpriced in my opinion.

    A lot of people who made reservations were sat 30 minutes after their reservation time. Overall, I think the drinks and the food were decent and overpriced. The waitress did a great job checking on our table.

    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.
