Incredible selection of dishes, in clouding lots of seafood plates and soups. The serving size of each dish borders on ridiculous. The dining halls are large with plenty of space to stretch out even when it's busy. It even has a large hall with a stage for music and dancing.

Establishment is huge with a diffrent vibe in every room. There's the traditional restaurant dining area with art work in every wall, a big long bar, and a ballroom that hosts events. Drink menu has all the options you could possibly need, probably the craziest and one of the best for sure. Alcoholics paradise to say the least. I like how this place updates their menu to keep up with trends. Tlayudas and machetes for example are add ons that makes this a must, not a lot of places serve that around here. Can't hurt to try it out, their menu will surprise you with all their offerings!

Another great ethnic restaurant! The seating room was hand-painted, and it looked like someone took a LOT of effort to make the restaurant pretty. They succeeded! The food was also fantastic and unique. I had a pineapple stuffed with seafood and fruit, and I loved it! My only minor issue was that only one staff member that was there spoke English, but what do you expect? Wakeagan has a large Hispanic population, and I didn't expect to eat American food. With a translator app and the lady who spoke English, I think the restaurant is fine for an English speaker to go to. I will be back.

Delicious food, everything was fresh and very tasty. Had the mixed seafood enchiladas, and I could barely finish my plate as it was packed with rice, refried beans, salad and guacamole. Don't miss this place if you are in the area!

Best to know a little spanish, but a fun and friendly challenge if you don't. The food is good, the Horchata is the best I've had, the pricing is fair. Not a vegetarian friendly menu but they'll put something together dor you if you ask.

The way I see this place it's definitely a good quality Mexican food restaurant. It gets really noisy on weekends and would not recommend Fridays and Saturdays but everything after it's been a really good experience, Nancy has taken care of me a few times and everything has been great.

Terrific place! The food was fabulous and plentiful, prices very reasonable, drinks were strong and tasty, and the hand painted murals, furniture and decor were beyond charming. We'll definitely be back.

I love this place, lots of food and drinks options. Their food portions are huge. Also recently found out that there is an event floor in the back + on Fridays and Saturdays nights they have dance floor as well. I will definitely recommend to try this place.

Overall, it was an okay experience. We were celebrating a birthday. The service was good, and the food was decent. I enjoyed the aguachiles, though they had a slight bottled lime juice taste. We ordered two parrilladas, and they were very filling more than enough for eight people. Since we had a party of eight, gratuity was already included on the bill.

Huge menu, luck of the draw service, pathetic live and lively music. Delightfully cheesy ambiance. Good but not great food with humongous portions emphasize quantity over quality. Large tequila and mixed drinks selection. Great place for big families and parties to share large portions. In one of the dining rooms tastefully gaudy decorations make you feel you are under the sea. A fun place, nevertheless. PS: The patio is now open for seasonal outdoor seating. Looks like fun, complete with outside bar and full service. PPS: A large dining/special events/performance venue has opened next to the bar which expands the available space. Gaudy special effects, high volume piped in music (can hardly have a conversation), when there is no live performance, attempt to give a festive ambiance but fail delightfully. You just have to be there.

I have to say the menu is insanely huge being a good thing they have so many options everything looked good but can't that it was actually good. I had. Tamal oxaqueño - It was the tamal of the day mines was red pork. it wasn't the worst but not the best. Rating: 7/10 Green Chilaquiles: I asked the waitress for them to be spicy. and my eggs to be over easy. I did not get either. Chilaquiles where not the best all I could taste is the tomatillo. it was a big portion, which I liked, too bad I wasn't a fan of them. Rating:4/10 Would i try them again? yes, there menu selection is huge. I won't order chilaquiles again.

These folks seemed to be short staffed.However, the place was mostly empty with just one other table seating customers.The one server that was there was not terribly busy and made few trips to see us. No refills on the drinks. I said thank you each time at the table no response or acknowledgement. Heard her thank the one other couple in the restaurant. Were were never spoken to. Just seated and asked if we were ready to order. The food was plentiful in the plate. The cuisine is a Mexi / seafood style. Most offerings are paired with some kind of seafood. Would I go back? No it was 150.00 for 4 people. No alcoholic drinks or desert were ordered.

Located in a bad area. We had a hard time with communication. Staff barely spoke English. The chicken dish had no taste despite the red sauce on it. Meals are overpriced. My wife said the taco salad was ok.

The server was excellent very attentive, but the atmosphere not so great little fruit flies flying around and a giant regular fly 🤢 it is very pretty the painting on the walls and tables and chairs are so cute. The most important part, the food was blah, I got the hawaiian pineapple, not like what I've had before in other seafood places, and the prices are even higher than other places, I went 2 other friends only 1 of us was actually satisfied with their food, will not ve going back I have this restaurant way too many tries.

Friendly staff, when you can understand the strong language hurdles. Odd atmosphere, Hispanic on one side and Disney in other area. Food was not worth even taking leftovers, which was alot. Don't bother with an alcohol order unless you want virgin drinks. No alcohol in any of our 3 drinks was tasted and for $14.50 I would expect a decent size and flavor. Prices are high ($12.50 for Mac and cheese) and "queso" is a plate of melted, what we can assume was mozzarella like string cheese, so if you want a dip queso, this will not be what you are looking for. The fresh Pico they brought with the chips was great, but that is as far as the good compliments can be taken. I will say that the waiter/waitress however he/she claims to be, should really be evaluated for their uniform dress code due to the symbolism on one hat that is known for it's "childish" interests and given the off flavor of Disney's Little Mermaid I was quite surprised I even saw this so blatantly displayed that after a bad dinner, was the cook off that night and they were winging it? Definitely do not entertain children here.

Without a shadow of a doubt, I can honestly say this is the WORST Mexican restaurant I have ever been to! The dining area smelled like a public restroom. I was constantly bothered by flies the entire time. The atmosphere was okay but the paintings on the walls were rather loud, and they were showing signs of age with chipped paint and tears. My servers did not speak or understand English very well, and one of them came across as if she didn't care. Plus, they took too long. I was really tempted to just get up and leave. I only ordered three tacos and they were about as tasty as those Jose Ole mini tacos you find in the freezer section of any grocery store. In other words, they were disgusting, and the beef was drowning in grease and seasonings. It was barely edible. And those 3 cost about $16. The prices were insane here. You can find much better restaurants for your time and money than this place. Even a Taco Bell is a much better, tastier, and cheaper option!

The bartender was nice but there is no chips and salsa here, 12 tvs but none of them on. No music, later musicians played but was not visible from the bar. The food was the worst. $20 for enchiladas with rubbery fatty pork, canned refried beans and no sort of Mexican rice Ive ever had. The shredded lettuce was almost the best part had it not been soaked in cucumber. This isn’t the spot you go to to have a good time or good food.

The waitress was a horrible server, seemed like she didn't want to be there or just really didn't care. The food was marginal at best and the water tasted like it came straight out of the tap. I would not go back and the food was very expensive.

I don’t ever leave reviews but this is easily the worst Mexican food I’ve ever had. The rice tasted plain, the beans were basically flavored water, and the chicken was taking a bath in so much juice it drowned my tortilla. And the grand finale…the food wasn’t even hot. I’ve had gas station burritos put up a better fight than this.
