Cosmic Burrito Tequila Bar, Food Truck and catering — Restaurant in Redford Township

La Casa del 'What the Hell Did I Just Witness?' – A Cinco de Mayo Nightmare

Update: Lol, the owner has zero class. Any bad review gets the same treatment instead of taking the criticism. This is your warning, do not go! Dropped it from 2 stars to 1. This guy obviously stacks his stars and has zero class when it comes to people putting actual ratings. He ain't going to change his service, prices, or his attitude based on how he takes negative reviews. Check the other 1-3s. It ain't good yall.

I really wanted to like this place. I had read cool things, and the vibe looked really cool. Was looking forward to trying it on Cinco de Mayo! Instead, I got a front-row seat to what I can only describe as a burrito-themed soap opera where everyone was either high, drunk, or questioning their life choices.

TL;DR: Drinks took 30 minutes, and I had to remind them several times I had ordered the.. Food took 2 hours. The bartender was either on something, dealing something, or just the owner’s sketchy friend who got shoved behind the bar last minute. The only redeeming part? The other poor souls at the bar were cool as hell—probably why we all stook it out. Or we just felt bad for the waitress.

So here’s how my night went:

The Setup: Place was dead. Like, maybe 12 people in the whole restaurant. But somehow, they were still drowning because four people were no-showed. The staff consisted of: The owner (who did five shots in the time it took me to get one) A brand-new 18-year-old waitress (absolute angel, doing her best) The "bartender" (a guy who looked like he was either on a lot of downers or just really hated being there)

The Chaos: The owner kept drunkenly arguing with the waitress about orders that were "canceled" (they weren’t). TheThe bartender kept forgetting every single drink order (mine, the girl next to me, the couple down the bar—all of us just staring into the void). At one point, the bartender smacked a regular with a menu for some reason? But it was wild to witness. They obviously knew eachother. It was not in a "fun, joking" way—more like a "I am this close to snapping" way. How many signs should have pointed to just leave???

-The Food Incident: My burrito, it was terrible, and when I finally ate it at home, not what I ordered, and I was worried about how strange the meat tasted to eat it. When it finally arrived, it was somehow both overpriced and mediocre. The bartender then overcharged me $10+ because he had no idea how the register worked.

The Only Good Part: The people at the bar were great. We bonded over our shared suffering, swapped stories, and collectively accepted that we’d all been scammed.

Final Thoughts: This place was a disaster. The owner was a mess, the bartender was definitely not sober, and the only competent person was the new waitress—who deserves a raise and a hug.

Sucks, this place seems like it would have so much potential. Hope the owner gets sober and never berates an 18 year old again on her first shift. Hope she knows there are plenty of places looking for some one with a good attitude who can make a whole bar hold...

Burritos are overpriced for what they are, they are good but everything on the menu was too much for the portion size. The server took forever with the drinks and when two Pina coladas were ordered for my sister's they came out different colors. One was almost all pineapple juice! The other all the booze! Had to remix the drink at the table. Then the bill came. I paid my bill with a card and thought it was odd I couldn't add my own tip on the machine so I was going to leave a cash tip on top but then I looked at my receipt! My server Jay gave himself 7 and a half dollars on top of what I owed for the food! I'm not rich but I do tip well but to just tip yourself without asking your customer is THEFT! I am rather livid with the experience still two days later and I would never return because of these practices. Pablo the owner asked us to leave a review and I have to say that while you're a nice guy and your food was tasty it wasn't worth the price asked for and your server was slow and a shyster. Also a basket of chips and salsa here is 7 dollars with no refill. A quarter bag of chips and a little cup of salsa only costs a dollar to put out. I hope this was a one off. But definitely make sure your servers aren't ROBBING YOUR CUSTOMERS to get tipped. I would have left with a much better opinion of the place and looked past everything else were it not for that server Jay. If you do go here pay in cash or Jay will tip himself. He did it to both myself and my sister that paid...

This is a fantastic local bar that was started by a metro Detroit Native who previously ran a burrito food truck which apparently won several awards. Because of his success he decided to start this bar.

The bar itself is decorated in a space theme and has fantastic quirky ambience. It's a small and cozy place with several tables and a long bar.

There is a great selection of Tequila which the owner and bartenders are very knowledgeable about. They have weekly drink deals on excellent tequila which is very affordable. The bar tender was extremely attentive and friendly.

The food here lives up to the cosmic namesake, otherworldly, the burritos are hefty and absolutely delicious. The owner is constantly making small changes to the sauces and sides and was very excited to show us the new offerings.

This was honestly one of my favorite stops in a long time because of the quality and price of the food, the quaint atmosphere and extremely friendly and welcoming staff and owner and I'd highly recommend it to anyone...
