    Waited over an hour to be seated, considering I had reservations. My food was unfortunately cold when it came out, overall food and drinks were not the greatest. My alcoholic beverage tasted almost as if there was no alcohol in it. Nice ambience and scenery, however the quality of what is served on the table does not match with it.

    Nice ambiance, trendy, classy. Was greeted with some prosecco then as we waited with were brought a taster of some mezcal ( can’t remember the name) it was woody and citrusy. Ordered 2 drinks, la Catrina - guava w/vodka on the sweeter side and amor ardiente- has a little presentation, it’s woody and a bit potent but enjoyable. Disappointed because they were out of the skirt steak so ended up getting the filet mignon and it was salty. The papas bravas were tasty, they have a kick of spice. Sweet potato taquitos were good. The aguachiles app. is very small , only about 4 agua chiles but it is delicious. The tres leches postre(dessert) was just right, not too sweet. It is different than your usual 3 leches and I’m not a 3 leches fan. Menu is limited and what I mean by that is that there isn’t much to pick from, nevertheless, had a great time and the food was good. Side Note: please fix the wobbly table before the person dining sits there, I had to ask twice if they would fix it and it’s one of my peeves every time I dine some where.

    Dinner reservations Saturday @ 6:30 PM and restaurant had already sold out of the carne asada plate, main dish. Table for 2 felt extremely crammed with 2 plates , appetizer, and drinks.

    MXO was a delightful experience. The cabbage ceasar was phenomenal alongside garlic shrimp for starters. The purple sweet potato taquitos were a great bite with a little kick. And the Pork Al Pastor with broccolini and roasted potatoes were divine. We finished off with tres leches cake and strawberry cheesecake that was served with the most AMAZING horchata ice cream. Our server, Ryan, was such an incredible host. We will be back!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
