    Food and drinks were fantastic! The hamachi tiradito is a must, as well as the flan.

    Great service, great atmosphere, great drinks! We ordered the ceviche, guacamole, mole Filet, and Salmon. All the food was good and cooked to the right temperature. I really liked the ceviche. I feel like it was a little over priced, but it was a great experience. The staff was really attentive and that is hard to find at restaurants these days. I would go back.

    The food was very delicious, but somewhat overpriced and under-salted. The service could have been better - we asked for the red snapper ceviche, but our waiter brought us the red snapper entrée and charged us for it without correcting the mistake. Overall the experience was good, but disappointing service.

    Went to Mexta for happy hour and ordered mezcalrita clasicas, all the antojitos, and finished off with the carajillo cocktail. The red snapper ceviche and salmon tostada were delicious, and the porcelet taco was awesome. There wasn’t a single miss.

    The food and service were fabulous. It was a bit loud and difficult to hear my companion at during dinner.
