Fresa Mexican Kitchen & Tequila Bar — Restaurant in Everett

This is a sad excuse for Mexican cuisine. They served us fish that tasted like it had gone bad and didn't offer anything to replace it. Their meals are sub par and the overall environment seems to be "whitewashed" I for one enjoy authenticity when I go out to dine. Something I feel this establishment lacks in.

It was evening time about 2 weeks ago. We were seated right away and the waitress was very friendly. She asked if we wanted any additional sides with our chips and I says "yes, guacamole please," unawear it was an extra $7ish. We ordered drinks which were great. And then we ordered food. While we waited for the food we noticed the music was turned way up and we had to speak loudly to communicate which is only really typical in Mexican bars on Karaoke night. I got the flautas, which the tortillas were very soggy and a bit bland. I cannot remember what my sons father ordered but it had shrimp and some sort of fish(he was craving seafood) and I believe it came with peppers. He is a picky eater so he eats each item individually. He began with the shrimp which he immediately noted was overcooked. Then moved to the peppers and onions which were good but had a "off" taste. Once he started to eat the fishy looking meat he immediately said it tasted as though it was going bad. After taking a bite he went back to just the shrimp and veggies. Within minutes stated to feel very sick and called the waitress over and inform her that the seafood tasted bad and asked for a few lime slices to settle his stomach. She appologized, went back to the kitchen and came out with a single small slice of lime and said she informed the cook. We immediately paid and left. He was sick for the rest...

This was our first time trying out this restaurant. Although the service we received was not what we would have hoped for it also was not bad enough to keep us away. We waited maybe almost 10 minutes to just receive chips and salsa. We will be coming back another time to give it a try again but won't be having high expectations.

My bf ordered a seafood mariscada and a Pacífico, I ordered chicken en mole and I was craving a trash can but didn't see it on the drinks menu but decided to ask the waiter if it can be made. I had a trash can but honestly for the price I was really disappointed in the size and taste so next time will just order a drink that is already listed on their menu. My bf was a little disappointed on his meal. It was more rice and sauce than seafood and even though he enjoyed the seafood the rest of his meal he couldn't get himself to finish it. Very few restaurants make good mole so I was already preparing myself to be disappointed once again but to my surprise I actually enjoyed it. I got full after making myself 2 tacos so I ended up taking the rest home. The leftovers are really good reheated and being made into a burrito with a cold flour tortilla.

We were a little disappointed in the atmosphere. There is lots of white and not a whole lot of decorations that give off mexican vibes. We feel like would have enjoyed our meal a little better if there were to have been some spanish music playing in the dining area just like there is other mexican...

Took a friend out for a birthday dinner here and we both really liked it!

Our server Maribel was amazing! Super nice, helpful with questions, and super fast! We got water, chips and salsa almost the moment we were seated. We ordered drinks which came right away and they were delicious (a blue peach margarita, and a virgin mango margarita). Ordered dinner and that came out in just a few minutes. I only had time to eat one chip before dinner was served :)

My friend really liked her carne asada. My shredded chicken quesadilla was decent, but I wouldn't say amazing. Next time I might try the grilled chicken option instead.

It was a little spendy, but other than that the only slight downside was that is was very loud in there, even though there was only a family of four seated near us. The walls all are like brick or stone and there is not really much on them to help break up the sound from bouncing around. So when that family laughed it was hard for us to even hear each other without having to speak quite loudly.

Aside from that the design of the restaurant was pleasant and clean looking, and the booths were spacious and comfortable. I would definitely go again...
