Salsa Caliente Mexican Grill — Restaurant in Leamington

I had Salasa caliente cater my taco bar at my wedding last weekend. Food was great HOWEVER I ordered and paid for 200 tacos not all 200 tacos were eaten, naturally I assumed that I would get the leftover tacos since I paid for them..NOPE they were packed up and taken by the owner. I spotted a worker drinking alcohol at the bar on my dime I also had a pizza bar being served next to them , I had about 3 full boxes of pizza left over which I wanted to take home for our luncheon the next day, and the owners and crew helped themselves and packed all the pizza up and took it home with them as well

That’s not even the worse part. At the end of the night as they were cleaning they helped themselves to my dessert table not only taking 1 big take out container but they helped themselves to 6 LARGE takeout containers—leaving us with NOTHING but grapes and melons to take home. That dessert table cost me 3000.00 and they just helped themselves leaving my family and friends and bridal party with nothing to take home. I was not impressed at all. No one asked, had they of asked would of been a different story. when I confronted them the owner went from saying they only took fruit , to saying they only took 1 container to saying she took 4 the story changed multiple times

Lucky for me my husband and I were taking a selfie by our LOVE sign which was displayed at our dessert table and we happen to have 2 workers packing up desserts in our photo. Also, as I was thanking them (still unaware all this happened) I had asked if they got paid their remaining balance from my mom ..the owner said “no” so I went up to my mom as my mom said she paid the owner right in front of her she then said ohhh yes yes she paid…allowing me to believe that they weren’t paid and I would of paid them AGAIN

I am so mad not only for the service and the lies, but because I was basically cleaned out of my own dessert table at my wedding. We couldn’t enjoy it at all as it was all gone. I do not recommend them for catering...

I used to love this place. I haven't been in years and tried to get something new, a shrimp tostada. That was a mistake. It was disgusting (to me). It was cold plain shrimp, mayonnaise, tomatoes and avocado. I thought, ok maybe I got the wrong thing because the menu didn't say this is what came on this tostada if you chose shrimp? SO we asked to see the menu again ONCE WE WERE DONE because no one came to see how the food was for the entire meal. We had to call the waitress over. I literally sat there with a quarter eaten plate of food because it was too gross for me to eat. She finally came over and I said, "I don't think this is what I ordered. I thought it came with beans, lettuce, sour cream and tomato?" She said, "No, that's the only one that doesn't come like that, it says it on the menu doesn't it?" I said, "I did not see that, can you show me?" She said, "Oh it doesn't. That's our fault, I'm sorry. Do you want something else?" I said no because I filled up on chips and guac. THEN SHE CHARGED ME FOR IT! I understand if I made the choice to order something I didn't like but come on. It didn't say it on the menu at all and it was completely different than any other tostada. She also didn't let me know when I ordered it. All that needed to be done was say, "just so you know, this one doesn't come with anything it says on the menu". I would have NEVER ordered cold plain shrimp with mayo. Literally tasted like frozen then thawed shrimp PLAIN. So gross. Long story short, not impressed. Would go back for flautas since those were good and so is the rice. I hope I don't sound like a Karen. It's just...

I'm always hesitant to try Mexican food as I haven't really had a good one before. I've tried big chains as well as the mom-and-pop ones but I always end up disappointed. In fairness, I haven't had authentic Mexican food before so I can't even tell if what I was tasting was what what Mexican food is supposed to taste like. But I haven't had Mexican food before that I actually want to have again. I only came to Salsa Caliente cuz we we're supposed to go for Pho but it was closed and my son picked Mexican food as plan B. I'm so glad he convinced me to try this place. We had the Mix Plate combo cuz we didn't know most of the items on the menu. I'm glad we did the combo cuz now I know what flautas, enchilada and tostado. I just hope there was more serving, at least more rice and beans. Anyway, this place saved Mexican food for me!!! I can't wait for next time we're in town so I can come back here.

Service was just ok. No one really went out of their way to make it an amazing customer service. So I'm not sure about the other reviews that talked highly about their customer service cuz we definitely didn't experience it. They weren't rude but they also...
