This is now my go-to Mexican restaurant.
I'll start with the server. She really took care of us. We had Tatiana, and as our first time there, we chose the Mexican Bar Company Experience. Look on the menu, because it is a little pricey, but so worth it. If you have 2 people, you will easily get enough food for 4. However, you get a huge variety of things to try, so it is an amazing experience. I'll break down what we got, though yours could be different. The staff chooses the door for you unless you ask for something specific.
Now, when a restaurant brings out chips AND chicharones before the meal, you already have me hooked. Warning, the red salsa is a little on the hot side.
For the experience, they started with the Aguachile ceviche and guacamole. Loved the guacamole. The ceviche was a tad on the spicy side, but still good. I definitely could not eat a large serving of it.
Next course was two Al Pastor street tacos. These are pork taco with a sauce and pineapple. Well balanced and flavorful.
Next was an order of their Brussels sprouts. Now, I have had good and bad Brussels sprouts in restaurants. I have made some great ones at home. These were the best I've ever had. Slightly sweet, but savory due to the pork belly. Amazing.
Next, more street tacos. I didn't see this one exactly on the menu, but it was a marinated beef with jicama slaw on top. Again, well balanced. The meat was spicy, but the slaw balanced it out. They're excellent too.
Last was the Pollo a las Brasas. I love this dish. The chicken was cooked perfectly and has an amazing spiced glaze on it. They top that with this creamy garlic mojo sauce. Together, the flavor is simply divine. Those flavors together fall onto the bed of rice below it as well. In with the rice is fried plantains. The flavors in this dish are out of this world. Now, by the time we got to this, we were already ready to pop, so took most of this dish, as well as a whole lot of the Brussels sprouts home, but no regrets. It'll be an amazing full meal for the next day.
In addition, we tried a couple of the drinks. It's a "bar company" after all. The Antioxidental is good. A little on the sweet side, but refreshing. A great palette cleanser between courses for sure. We also tried the Cheekita. This one was a little less sweet and also very refreshing on a summer day. You definitely get the guava flavor in it.
All in all, I'd definitely recommend the restaurant. Also, if you are a first-timer, go for the MBC Experience. Go hungry if you do. If you can eat it all, you are better than me, but it's the best way to try a little bit of some of their best dishes.
