MexiKhan — Restaurant in Ulaanbaatar

A Mexican-American (“Chicano”) Review: —FOOD: I ordered the “Enchilada Con Frejoles”, yet not a single frijole (bean) could be found. It would have decent to be informed by the kitchen staff that they were out of frijoles so I could order something different, instead I was given an overcooked tortilla filled with chicken. To call this an enchilada is false to say the least. This was filled only with bland chicken and with barely any sauce. I honestly enjoyed the salad more than the main course. The only things I can positively say is that there was some effort in presentation and the chicken wasn’t dry at least. —SERVICE: NOTE: The waitress was a nice young lady and I commend her for her well treatment of me, tending to all the customers, and the establishment itself. So she is the reason for there being even a single star rather than zero. So the service rating is objectively concerning the restaurant as a whole during my lunch-hour visit. She alone was tending to me and the other customers (upstairs and downstairs) while also tending to other tasks such as preparing napkins, silverware, and such. Meanwhile, three employee men with the same attire and the bartender sat around the bar talking with their backs turned to all the customers. A shameful display… —ATMOSPHERE: The name of this place is clever and catchy. The interior design is very nice and is well decorated. I liked what I saw and I especially liked how they cleverly wrapped the pillars with many different mexicano and chicano themed films. This made me feel a little more at home, but unfortunately the music being played killed what could have been a 5 star-rating for ambience. Rather than having Mexican or Chicano music playing it was predominantly Mongolian rap music and some Mongolian pop music (some of which I personally like). It seemed as though it was what the three Mongol amigos wanted to listen to rather than giving the customers a Mexican ambiance.

In conclusion, I was honestly looking forward to visiting this place when I found it on Google. I’m disappointed to say the least. There are a two things we Mexicans do well: work hard and make one of the greatest foods in the world. In my opinion, the Mongols and other peoples visiting Ulaanbaatar deserve to know what our food truly tastes like. I must concur with a previous review that this is more of a “Mexi-Can’t” and due to the price of the meal it felt like I got...

Waited for 40 minutes for a simple quesadilla order and the restaurant was not very busy. When I asked the waitress when we were going to get our food and what happened to our order, we learn that had not yet began to be prepared. I spoke with the manager and she said just pay me for your coffee and beer drink and I said no you should carpet. I have been sitting here for 40 minutes and you haven’t even started my meal and now you’re telling me it will be another 20 minutes before it will be ready. . I asked for the owners name any information as to who her boss was, and she would not reveal that information but simply walked away.. I...

Bad experience. On first sight the place looks outdated but rather Mexican. We sat down and ordered -Meat set -Margherita Pizza -Beef Taco set (I think) -And a tea Of course the tea arrived quickly but the ready of the food took ALMOST 2 hours (excluding the pizza) after we received the meat set and the taco we happily ate it only for the food to run out quickly (for 6 people) and the waitress then told us that the pizza oven wasn’t heated or something. We got tired of waiting and just got pizza from somewhere else. Food was good though. But for impatient people, not...
