Reviews
I’ve been here twice. And this was the second time.
It went from bad to worse REAL quick.
This place has hype. And that’s all it is. It’s riverside.
Not many “high end” places if you can even call it that to be had. They label themselves as such and it’s far from it.
Entrance as a wannabe red carpet feeling. Not kidding there’s actually a red carpet at the door it’s super tacky.
I was greeted right away. And was shown to my seat right away. Started off decent per usual.
I was a party of 8. And had a birthday girl they knew was here as well. Ready paying customers. As a business you’d think that’s something to be grateful for, but that’s NOT how the staff felt and they will be more clear going into this.
First a two dozen oysters were ordered.
ALL sent back. Extremely watery and fishy.
THEY WERE BAD. Your establishment is going to get someone sick! BEWARE.
Since we were hungry we thought ok…. It can’t be THAT bad maybe they’ll get something else right.
So we thought…
chilaquiles
aguachiles
Steak
Pomegranate martini ( urgent care could be involved )
Chilaquiles came and the steak with it? Looked like beef jerky. Driest and old at least 4 days old steak if ever seen. DO NOT GET THE STEAK ON ANYTHING.
Aguachiles?
Actually pretty good. I can’t hate on it. This they got right. We had it with green sauce.
Pomegranate martini?
Questionable fruit used. Questionable alcohol used.
Resulting in one of our attendees having alcohol poisoning.
But let’s get into things before this all happened also.
Waitress took the orders. Never came back to check in waters or anything. Straight up disappeared.
Eventually the MANAGER had to come by and help our table. Agreed that the steak would be something not even she would eat. And that it was completely unacceptable.
Plate was returned. Brought back with new steak still the same plate of everything else ( that’s fine )
But the steak was still old, maybe a little better and extremely overly salted.
Also the birthday girl ordered pancakes. And that arrived after EVERYONE else’s food. Completely unacceptable.
Prices are completely outrageous considering the quality.
This place is all for hype and social media.
Sold to people who don’t know any better on how food is actually suppose to be prepared, made and displayed. And that’s not talking bad about the customers. This place is just a scam.
One of those restaurants that attracts photos and hype. But doesn’t live up to it at all.
With that said?
Highly recommend DO NOT GO.
This place needs to step it up. Any restaurant that is family owned and an owner isn’t present will degrade quickly. There’s a reason the restaurant business is considered one of the worst to be involved in. This place displays that.
Go at your own risk.
When it comes to the food, it was okay but not memorable. The flavor wasn’t bad, just average, and the food was a little cold for my taste. It’s not something I’d come back for specifically. Overall, I’d definitely recommend AY MIPA for anyone looking to have fun and enjoy the vibe, with the understanding that the food is more of a secondary part of the experience.
The atmosphere is mostly bar.
Unfortunately the menu has recently been reprinted and the business didn’t bother to update it online. Gone were everything we had come for.
The place is loud and the DJ loves his bass. Lights flashing. They sell celebration packages so every 15 minutes they would do a whole lighted sign and sparklers celebration. It would be a neat place for a girl’s night. Unfortunately, we had had a long day, had a 3 year old with us and had believed google that this was a family friendly environment with a children’s menu and it was anything but. I had a migraine when we left because my headaches can be triggered by flashing lights.
Now servers…they must tip share…because they all serve all the tables. It meant no one person was paying attention. We didn’t have silverware or napkins even after the table side guac was delivered. I got on small drink of soda water that was never refill despite being told it would be. Chaos.
The food…here’s the bright spot…it was really good! I had a fillet steak wet burrito and it was excellent.
This place could stand on its own just for the food. Unfortunately, the atmosphere will deter regular patrons from repeating. The entire experience was gimmicky, loud, distracting.
