Khaled ☤March 17, 2017Probably the best Mexican restaurant I've tried so far in dxb! Start with the freshly prepared avocados right at your table and then try any of their tasty options; I loved their burritos!Upvote2Downvote
Good Mexican food in a casual lively atmosphere, portions are small though. Located in a luxurious hotel, prices are higher than restaurants of same standard. Try their tasty Guacamole for starter.Upvote3Downvote
Adorkable 🦁March 28, 2018The food is amazing.. i would recommend the cold tuna for appetizers, the beef tacos is the most delicious tacos i’ve ever tasted.. there is a dish that have chocolate chicken with rice it was not badUpvoteDownvote- Bernardo StephanoMarch 5, 2015The ojo Rojo the best drink you can get awesome. The enchiladas and the tacos de borrego were delicious. Didnt like molcajete de queso was expecting something else. The location is hard to beat.UpvoteDownvote

Irene SentineSeptember 9, 2016My husband and I love Mexican food. But we were very underwhelmed with the chicken tacos we had for dinner. If you want some real tasty Mexican food, go to Loca or Taquado in Tecom.

Ricardo GroenkeOctober 31, 2014Tortilla Soup, yum! Very much like what you find in Mexico. Shrimp tacos with tamarind/chipotle sauce like what you would eat in many places around yucatan peninsula. I was impressed!UpvoteDownvote

You need more vegan options, seriously. Guacamole and one salad is just plain sad.UpvoteDownvote
Andy ChampionFebruary 16, 2014Dreadful service. Disappointing food. We waited an hour for our food. The Caesar salad was a joke, the nachos were soggy and the quesadilla uninspiring. Lots of other unhappy customers there too!UpvoteDownvote
