“ The ambiance is one of the best and the service is amazing as the stuff are always so welcoming. The food is also delicious. ”
“ Service was fast and didn't require a reservation. The amadala(?) was better than fajitas from generic Mexican. Edwin was super helpful! Ask abput the seasonal margaritas. The Mango was the bomb. ”
“ Epcot-We decided to come into the country of Mexico and eat at this cute little restaurant. A couple of us had already eaten, so we got something on the lighter side. The chicken tostadas were very tasty. Guacamole was OK, although it was not real avocados. More like a powdery substance with a few real avocados smashed in. We absolutely loved the pepitas and mango on top of the guacamole. The chips were Chicharron instead of tortilla chips, which was a nice switch up. Definitely could've done without the hot sauce poured all over the Chicharrons. Service was excellent, and the cocktails were quite tasty although they were a bit too sweet for most of us. Definitely would come back and try some of the larger entrées next time. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of our cocktails! ”
“ Future me, remember to have the kids split a quesadilla. It will probably be cheese, since Yoshi only wants cheese. If you get Hiro the chicken quesadilla, he may not eat it, but it tasted decent the next day. The kids meals are generous portions that come with two sides. We did rice and corn with one and rice and fruit with the other. I wasn't a huge fan of the corn, but the rice is delicious. I even ate it cold the next day and it was still good. I got the shrimp Caesar salad and it was pretty good. My husband got enchiladas and it had a bunch of cheese. Way too much cheese for him, so reminder to him, if he gets the enchiladas again, ask for it without cheese. We also started with the chips with queso and salsa. They weren't anything to write home about, but if we're craving queso or salsa it's pretty good. I got the avocado margarita, which was delicious as always. I saw another table had a margarita flight, so maybe next time I'll pivot to that. Even after you check in the wait can be a while, so definitely check in on your phone as you're walking there. Our server was so nice. If I didn't have the kids I would ask to sit by the water to watch the boats go by. It would take longer to get a table, but it's so worth it (to me.) ”
“ One of my top go-to's in Epcot primarily for the ambiance. It really can't be beat. I challenge you to come here and say otherwise. For looks over substance, this is your place. How shallow are you?? : ) Located in the heart of the Mexican pavilion, with an artificial night sky, pyramid, and periodically exploding volcano in the background, the restaurant is breathtaking. IMO easily the most romantic restaurant in the park and a great reset if you feel on the verge of heatstroke. Mariachi players also sometimes come around and you can see the boats going by as well. Cool stuff. As to food, it's definitely gotten better but it's still no Rosa Mexicano even and it's pretty expensive for what it is. They also don't do complimentary chips and salsa ,which would have been nice but my business minor gets it. The goal is to move people who will likely be one-time patrons in and out as quickly as possible and with the highest tab. Unlimited chips and salad are seriously in conflict with that. Fine. Although it seems like Disney won't ever throw you a bone, or even a tortilla chip I guess. Fine. The queso appetizer is decent if heavy for the hot weather. The chicken enchiladas also acceptable but very heavy and bland- would recommend splitting. With the tortilla soup, the server pours the broth over the contents when it arrives which is mildly amusing but the soup is also kind of bland. The shrimp dish is fine. Get the gist here? Again, I get it. Disney tries to not get anyone or anything hot and bothered, and that includes your taste buds. I heard they revamped their menu recently so maybe the food has gotten better. But even if not, still consider this place for the sheer ambiance and just have minimal expectations and don't over-order. No one wants to carry around a doggie bag of mediocre left-over-Mexican-food-that-will-get-thrown-out-in-two-days around with them all day. Tip: Arrive early and ask for a table by the water. Often they can accommodate, although you may have to wait a bit. Oh also this place is dark. Great for couples but if you are going with elderly parents, they may have trouble seeing the menu. Kids might also fall asleep but maybe that's a welcome respite. ”
