    Absolutely loved it! It was a date night and my husband and I are vegetarians. We had the roasted cauliflower , fresh guacamole and the Mexican chopped salad. The food was amazing, and the portions were huge. We have to go back to try the rest of the delicious sounding stuff on the menu. Special mention to our server - she was v attentive and gave us great recommendations !

    The restaurant is beautiful and goes to great lengths to make sure you understand their dress code. They are quite clear about how long a meal will take and how they will deny entry to anyone who doesn’t adhere. Unfortunately they don’t enforce it. Lots of guests in athletic jerseys and t shirts. If you’re going to have rules, enforce them. Service was painfully slow. Food was good. Price point was too high for the serving sizes.

    Reservation set, seated quickly but waiter service was delayed. Continued to be delayed throughout the service and it didn’t seem like a packed house. Order for our main dishes came out incorrect but since the waiter never checked back in after the entrees, we decided to just deal with it. Mole Chilaquiles lacked flavor. I didn’t get the rich mold flavor I was expecting.

    This was our first time to visit The Mexican. Without a doubt, it was great, from start to finish. The Hamachi appetizer was amazing, the Prawns and Ahi Tuna to follow were nothing less, amazing. Drinks were great. Service could not be better. Jamie was spot on with his recommendations and besides that he was wonderful. Overall we absolutely enjoyed our experience! We will be back!
