Authentic Mexican Cuisine??? 4/19/2010

I came to this restaurant on a friends advice...Last time I take that advice. We walked up to the restaurant and I was excited because of the reviews that I have read. I looked at the sign when we walked in and I saw that it read ""Authentic Mexican Cuisine"". I love Michelladas and those are usually served at Authentic Mexican Restaurants but not this one. On to the table..every single table wobbles. Service was ehh. Food was very disappointing. I got the equivalent to a PooPoo platter at a Chinese restaurant, the sampler. Ceviche was a joke to Goode Company Seafood. My wife got the fajitas. They were fajitas. I am still wondering why a true authentic restaurant doesn't serve Michelladas. Cons: Everything. more

Awesome ceviche 7/18/2008

Went in here on a weeknight for an appetizer and a drink. The ceviche is a really large order and tastes incredible. Margaritas were smaller than expected, but pretty good. I love the small feel of the place. Non-commercialized and comfortable, a breath of fresh air from the midtown hoopla and all the transplant filled restaurants that have staked a claim in nearby neighborhoods. I will be back! Pros: ceviche, atmosphere more

My new favorite 1/31/2008

Bocados has just officially defeated defending champion Chuy's as my #1 mexican place, and it's on my list of regular places. It has small and local charm. Lily and Terry own the place, and they have personally waited on us several times! The food is very fresh and authentic. The made-from-scratch salsa is addicting. I usually get either the chicken or seafood enchiladas with green tomatillo sauce (the white cheese they put on there is really good). Even the rice and beans have good flavor (I think the flavor their refried beans with bacon). more

WORST EVER 1/21/2008

Unfortunate 1/4/2006

This place is a mess. I will give it one letter grade...""F"". Bad food, bad enviornment, smelly restrooms, caving floor and rude...rude bartenders. This so-called Mexican restaurant has GOT TO GO! Pros: There are none Cons: Food, Customer Service, Prices more

A great place just waiting to bust out! 7/26/2005

The food was wonderful! The house it resides in is a great setting for a restaurant. It feels like being at home. Pros: Food, Drinks, Atmosphere more
