I had one order that was good, and one that was not. : FOOD: 2 Bowls Protein Choice Spicy Chicken Tinga Sauce Choice (3 max) Chipotle Aioli Sauce Choice (3 max) Tomatillo Chimichuri Chicken was overall moist though I had a couple small dried out pieces. They mistakenly gave me Pico instead of Tomatillo Chimichuri. However some of the pico I think was starting to turn because only the top tasted good. Still a good plate. Rice lightly seasoned, lovely, as was the Chipotle Aioli. Verdict: GOOD.
Protein Choice Grilled Steak (+$3.00) Sauce Choice (3 max) Chipotle Aioli Sauce Choice (3 max) Tomatillo Chimichuri Toppings Addition (7 max) Guacamole Toppings Addition (7 max) Fried Plantains Toppings Addition (7 max) Pineapple Salsa Toppings Addition (7 max) Black Bean Toppings Addition (7 max) Refried Beans Toppings Addition (7 max) Shredded Romain Toppings Addition (7 max) Cucumber The Guacamole was soo good. The rice in this bowl was really not good. Greasy and flavorless, though it appeared to be seasoned and have peas in it and was brownish. It actually reminded me of the rice I got at a restaurant down the street on the same block that serves shwarma. The steak was cut into tiny chunks, and most were tough and chewy. The few I had that were seasoned well were lovely and tender, so I don't know what happened there.
1 x Fried Plantains: Verdict: Good. It is hard to mess up plantain. Nice and ripe, though they do have the nice tostones. I just didn't get any.
Verdict: DON"T GET THE GRILLED STEAK FOR YOUR BOWL. GO FOR THE OTHER BEEF OPTIONS.
SERVICE: So when I walked in to pick-up my order there were only 3 people at the front, who seemed exhausted, and the place was empty. They were serving one customer, but two people seemed to be focused on that. The other person was bagging chips for the chips and salsa I assume. This young woman with the chips said after I interjected and said hello and that was there to pick up my order that looked like it had been bagged up already and less than 3 feet away from me, "If she doesn't want to wait, I', not going to give it to her." She was speaking to her coworkers. I assumed she was speaking about me, as I was in a hurry, and I was right because when I unpacked the bag not complimentary chips or salsa was present. I wasn't rude, but she was clearly done, so I just chock it up to my...
Read moreMamacita Mexican Comida presents itself as a tantalizing prospect, brimming with the promise of flavorful cuisine and vibrant ambiance. However, upon closer examination, it becomes evident that this establishment is a missed opportunity. The culinary offerings, including their house margarita, showcase commendable craftsmanship and attention to detail, leaving patrons with a lingering taste of satisfaction.
Regrettably, the overall dining experience is hindered by the apparent strain evident in the demeanor of the staff. Throughout the visit, there is a palpable sense of being overwhelmed, with servers appearing visibly annoyed and struggling to keep pace with the demands of the bustling restaurant environment. This detracts significantly from the ambiance and detracts from the overall enjoyment of the meal.
Despite these shortcomings, it is undeniable that Mamacita Mexican Comida possesses the ingredients for success. With a concerted effort to address staffing issues and refine the service delivery, there is ample potential for this establishment to ascend to the ranks of a standout dining destination in the local...
Read moreThis is my second time coming to this place and I can't say enough positive things about this food. I would probably come here weekly if I lived locally. Unfortunately for me I live in a different state so I can only eat here when I visit my son at his college.
The food is absolutely scrumptious! Oh my goodness it's so good! I've gotten several different things from there and not a single thing has been even mid. Every single bite is compoundly delicious.
They often have house sangria or house margaritas available and they are expertly crafted. I usually limit myself to one but the sangria in particular is worth a second glass.
There's spicy shredded chicken is my favorite thing. I would eat a bowl full of just that if I could. The marinated birria beef is mouth watering.
The atmosphere is fun and playful and relaxing and welcoming. No matter where you sit in the restaurant there is something interesting and unique to look at.
I plan on visiting this place every single time I'm up there. Absolutely...
