La Bahía Grill — Restaurant in Champaign

Honestly, had a decent experience here until I got the bill! Food was was okay. Server very nice.

I ordered a large margarita and asked to make it “skinny”, meaning less mix/sugar. I asked for Tajin instead of salt. I upgraded the tequila to corralejo which is good not great. I requested to add jalapeño to make it spicy. The server did say that “since it is custom, it would be extra”. I said no problem. Assuming it might be double the menu price. Turns out they charged me $44 for a 20 oz margarita!! The regular price for a 20oz margarita is $9. 😒.

Asked them if the $44 was correct and the server said “yes, that’s what my manager told me to charge”.

I was the only only customer in the building 🫤.

I feel taken advantage of. Being from out of town, and then being slow. Very disappointed. Will not return and will not recommend.

update

I did see on my account that they did in fact refund the margarita. I do understand that mistakes happen. Thank you for...

The service was good the waitresses were nice. My husband and I went on Saturday night they were a little busy and the waitresses were scrambling which I understand because they just opened about 1 1/2 months ago and are still learning how it all works. We had to wait quite awhile for our food. Once the food came I was disappointed my chicken tacos had no flavor other than the pico and sour cream that was on them and my pinto beans tasted like they were from a can very bland no flavor. My husband had enchiladas they were so spicy he could not eat them he asked for mild sauce and the steak in his enchiladas tasted like regular beef not steak. Due to they are new and just starting out I will try them again during the week not a weekend and try something different maybe it was the cook or they were not ready for a crowd on Saturday. Hopefully I will have a better food...

Guacamole was good but the other food was only fair. Too much cilantro was used on my steak taco and chicken was a little dry on other persons taco dish. Took time to even get refills and they were not busy.

In response to the restaurant we were there on Friday, March 18th around 6:15 PM and it was not busy. There was one pick up and one other table seated after us. Another table came in about 45 minutes later. Better attention by staff that sodas need refilling, we had to ask more than once for it. Also, one person asked for a to go boxes and our waitress only brought one and she wanted more than one because she does not like all her food together. We finally got another person to get us another box. Less cilantro on the food - I like it, but it was too much for me and I took a...
