    I have been a customer for about a year, always have had the bottomless brunch. I was excited to try the new menu but left disappointed overall. The chips and salsa were beautifully presented but the habanero salsa was thick, almost pasty and had a peculiar after taste. The tacos were also disappointing, the Mahi Mahi was forgettable but the jackfruit was good. The enchilada was a bunch of sautéed onion with a ok sauce. Overall it seems as though the changes were geared toward presentation, not a better meal. The meal was forgettable and didn't feel worth the increased price. A lot of style, not a whole lot of substance.

    The food at Tamayo is always delicious. However, I do miss the old bottomless brunch menu. The new one is not as robust in offerings or taste. It is good, but the other one was excellent and by far felt like you were getting your money’s worth. Also, the new decor offers an enhanced dining experience.

    Disappointed - seemed overpriced, skimpy portions. Will say the Dinner and a show was a great special- thank you. This is why we chose this restaurant over other in the area.

    We went for the bottomless brunch. First time since the reopening. Loved the fact they gave one of everything on the list. All portions were great for two hungry people! Favorite was the chilaquiles and the jackfruit tinga tacos (surprising because I am a MEAT person 100%) HOWEVER the spices and flavor were spot on. My boyfriend loved the mahi mahi tacos. Also, special mention for the ceviche! Love the charred peppers used! We were so full we didn’t have seconds.

    Hi Emma, thank you so much for choosing us for your first brunch since the reopening and for this incredible review! We're thrilled that you enjoyed our bottomless brunch and that the portions were just right for you and your boyfriend. It’s fantastic to hear that the jackfruit tinga tacos won over a self-proclaimed meat lover—that’s high praise! And we couldn’t agree more about the chilaquiles; they’re one of our most popular. offerings. We’re also glad your boyfriend loved the mahi mahi tacos and that the ceviche (and those charred peppers) were spot-on. We are 100% looking forward to your next visit!
