Senor leon — Restaurant in Town of Batavia

First of All the prices were a bit high which I wasn’t worried about since it’s in the mall and would have been fine had we go some good food. However, this place was a complete joke. My girlfriend and I went here for dinner before a movie and order the Quesabarias and grilled chicken salad. We also tried to order drinks, but after I asked what beer they have on draft like their menu says, they said none. My gf got a margarita which she didnt like and I got a diet coke. We ordered extra chips and queso which we never got however it was on the bill. Then we got our food quickly and it was abysmal. I asked for no tomatoes on the salad and there was tomatoes. The grilled chicken on it was somehow greasy and there was literally no cheese or the ranch dressing which was also supposed to be on it. So it was just iceberg lettuce, a little greasy chciken, 4 oranges, and a couple onions and peppers. By far worst chicken salad I ever had and can make 10x better at home. The worst part is my girlfriend’s quesabirria was significantly worse. Her’s came as literally 3 tacos (not even a quesadilla) that were so unbelievably greasy she had to try and drain them on the plate. So much came out she filled the bottom of the plate and even the birria sauce had a layer of grease on top and around the rim of the bowl. Somehow they even screwed up the rice that turned out be soggy and had a strange taste. When we asked to have the queso we never got taken off the bill and the quesadilla price to be switched to the taco price which she got the manager argued with her and told her she doesn’t know what she is talking about and was adamant the literal 3 tacos she got was a quesadilla. He never fixed the price and we were charged for it. By far the worst mexican restaurant I have ever been too. Salsaritas and chipotle are significantly better than this dogfood. Id rather eat at dave and busters or the food court at the mall instead of this place. Should name it...

This has become a tradition - stop to eat in Batavia on our way to Toronto… this time our choice was Senor Leon… not disappointed at all.

Cosy place that has a bar and tvs as well as booths to eat… i am sure during game nights place can get loud, but when we were there - while they were packed (good for them), it wasn’t loud at all. We were promptly greeted with a big smile and sitted…everyone including our waitress has been greeting us with bright smiles.

Their cocktails and margaritas looked very tempting, but i dont drink and mrs settled for tea, so cant comment on their drinks…

Huge bowl of chips and big bottle of tasty salsa was immediately brought. It was so big that probably could have been a dinner all in itself, but we knew better..

There were so many Choices and portions looked huge, after debating and getting recommendations from our waitress we went with fish tacos (wife) and enchiladas chipotle for myself. It looked and tasted superb! No disappointments in choices at all. Only disappointment was - our stomach wasnt big enough to fit it all so we took box to go..

Fish tacos came with beans and rice and 2 sauces - one very hot (which my wife loved despite tearing up from it), enchilada came with a green salad…

Wait for our order was minimal…

Solid 5 start for everything…

PS - interestingly - already in Canada i discovered i was missing my credit card… i called them and sure enough - i left it there but staff reassured me it was secure and stored in a lockbox… guess we will be stoping by again for another lunch and to pick up my card…

Logistics - big free parking lot and plenty of shopping...

Let me start by saying. This restaurant has only been open for 2 weeks at this point. In the 2 weeks they have been open, this would have been my 3rd time ordering from them. Each time i went, The same owner/manager was at the front counter. I am not any easy person to forget. On this day, I ordered using Chow now which i had done both other times i had visited their restaurant. When I got to the restaurant they said they didn't have my order. Even though I showed him the order, confirmation number, And even Showed him on my mobile banking app. That his company senior Leon . Had already taken the money from my bank account. He refused to make and give me what i had ordered and already paid for. I was sent to way to go argue with Chow now through some texting app for an hour to get my money back. In Today's day and age we are all very busy, and that's why we use convenient things like ordering apps. I myself have worked in the restaurant industry for 20 plus years. No restaurant I have ever worked at would have had turned the customer away to go deal with this problem themselves, Instead we would have dealt with it ourselves and given the customer what they had ordered. Don't get me wrong. The food here was good. That's why I Was ordering there for the 3rd time in just 2 weeks. I love ethnic food. And I would have been a great customer. I will never return to this...
