     The two waiters who served us did not bother to provide good service, one did not care about us and the other tried to help but was terrible at his job, the worst birthday I have ever had, I will never go back there.  They need to stop hire delusional employees They need to remember that they are employees, not owners of the restaurant.

    It’s a beautiful restaurant with fantastic options for drinks and food. I highly recommend the ribeye with guacamole for starters, the cowboy ribeye for entree, and the campechana or cuatro leches (or both, like we did!) for dessert.

    We ordered: QUESO FUNDIDO (they portion it out for you so if you’re used to doing this yourself it’s an adjustment), CRISPY PORK BELLY (delicious and spicy. Went great with the queso fundido), LOBSTER ELOTE (my favorite dish of the night, so flavorful with plenty of lobster meat), DEL MAR ENCHILADA TRIO (they all tasted similar, good but a single order of one of them would’ve been fine). The drinks were all great. Had off menu specialties and the Paloma.

    Wait staff and ambiance were fine, but the food was awful. We’d waited weeks for a cheat meal and were so disappointed in everything we tried aside from the wagyu.

    Our party of five had an amazing experience at The Mexican. Every drink, appetizer, and main dish was amazing and cooked to perfection. The service was outstanding as well! Can’t wait to dine again.
