Eleonora MartaMay 29, 2018Loved it! Lovely garden at the back, although it was closed the next day. Good mexican food, also with decent price. Service...? Depends on waiter. Generally totally recommend it! 👍
Cem OzMay 4, 2014Very delicious tex-mex food.. (Not better than in mexico) the margaritas are great.. But i cant say the same for the staff, they want you to order quickly without asking any questions..
- Sharon van LeeuwenAugust 27, 2017Really nice and attentive staff! Great cocktails and omg the nachos are really awesome here! Towards the weekend-in the evening- they will turn the music up so you can dance.
Erin WeigelMay 29, 2016We had a fantastic server! However, I'm used to authentic Mexican food having visited Mexico & living in the US. It was OK. The people/service is what makes it good.
TasosApril 8, 2017Amazing atmosphere and cocktails! Few options on the menu, but you really don't really miss anything. Very nice pollo enchilada!
Petek SalmanMarch 1, 2015Ceviche remolacha, enchilada, nachos, lobster a la planch and margaritas were great!
Everything we've tried has been delicious! Highly recommended!
Audrey TolbertJanuary 6, 2017We did have to wait FOREVER to get our food and drinks, but this is one of the only places for good Mexican food in the city. Just hope you're not in a rush.
My 1st Impressions .comJuly 13, 2012Great Margaritas at the bar and Guacamole with nachos at the restaurant, great atmosphere,too.You finish to drink margaritas through all your meal! :)
Adam NowekSeptember 23, 2015Delectable Mexican cuisine. The enchiladas are top of the class for a city with a dearth of hearty Mexican food.
DevontaDecember 2, 2014Great atmosphere but more of a fancy Mexican place. The prices were a little high for Mexican food. Food was prepared nicely.
Brian FitzgeraldFebruary 7, 2015Party of 4? Just want Margaritas and nachos? Try the couches on the second floor.
Vetearii ThomasAugust 29, 2014Service was awesome, food was fantastic, I would for sure come back here!
Jenny JMarch 14, 2014Excellent empanadas and quesadillas. Skip the burger though - dry and rather tasteless.
Go for the combinación dos (or tres). Lots of choice and a full plate.
Since renovation their menu has been halved and service is lacking. Give this place a miss!
Tessa ColautoJuly 11, 2011Good food, awesome garden and great variety of cocktails, service was a bit slow but nothing too serious.
Simon SmidtSeptember 13, 2014Not much good here. 1. Head waiter only speaks English. 2. Some waiters only speak English. 3. Very noisy. 4. Our reservation didn't get through. 5. Food is relatively ok. ....for tourists.
Alex RajcevicDecember 23, 2011Strange choice to use Deli-Sliced(non cooked) chicken for there Ceasar Salad and Quesadilla. Otherwise excellent.
Ronnie Collins-McCarthyJanuary 16, 2011Best Mexican food in Amsterdam and great service, burrito is lovely
