    Food was fine nothing to really write about. Service was spotty. The vibe is good and the decor is nice. There a bunch of better Mexican restaurants around.

    Hubby and I went for Date Night 🥰Beautiful atmosphere 🌟 🤩 Tables weren't too close together. Comfortable seating. Start you off with their own take on chips n dip. Great 👌🏽 Food was delicious, and fresh. Food came out pretty quick, only thing I would say we like to enjoy a few min more apart to separate the timing from App. Appetizer was the yuca fries oh my! So good! Oh and shared a side of 1/2 of Avocado 🥑which was perfect! Drinks were strong and tasty. My favorite was Tamarindo 🧡 Loved the place. Looking forward to our next visit! ❤️❤️

    The hostesses were extremely polite even held on to an oversized gift for me until I left. The waitress was very nice made sure we were happy with everything and kept checking in. Always smiling and happy to help us. The food was amazing as always as well as the food. I would recommend this place to everyone

    This was our first trip to Meximodo and it was fine. Not great, not bad, just fine. The decor was really, really fun and inspired. The food was good, but nothing to write home about. At first we thought the server was giving us time to talk with our group, and not rush us, but then we felt she kind of forgot about us. It changed from giving us tequila suggestions to forgetting to bring us a round of drinks we ordered. Overall the visit was fine, but I want more than just fine in a night out.

    This is a wonderful place to have a birthday celebration. It is colorful and bright. The people are nice. The staff is professional and attentive. The food is very good. Drinks are awesome. The decor of the place is one of my favorite. Awesome for small or large groups. I will definitely go there again.

    This place checks out on all three Criterias for a great eatery. Good vibe Good staff Great food The place is bustling with positive energy and fun vibe. Loud music, colorful interior, smiling wait staff and servers. Open kitchen assures your food is cooked with cleanliness and hygiene. The restaurant is clean and staff makes sure it gets swept and scrubbed after every patron departs. Our server (curly haired, glasses wearing, adorable girl) was so attentive and sweet. Table has adobo favored popcorn on the table, very addictive and freshly popped We ordered sopa de tortilla which was hearty and filling. Comes with feta and super spicy sauce in the side. Meximodo bowl was outstanding , delicious with flavourful chicken Shrimp tacos were so juicy and fresh Fresh lemonade- yummy We are going back 10 days from now and would love to revisit in summer , when they have outdoor seating. From where we sat, a gigantic bar took center stage and I'm definite their liquor selection is phenomenal, with every type of tequila stored 5 stars, highly recommend 👌

    Definitely felt rushed… before sitting down they tell you it’s a 2 hour time limit. We sat down at 6:05 and paid the check by 6:45. Food was very good, service was good. Felt a little cramped at the table too. Not enough room. Wish it was a little more relaxed.
