Delicious food that will make you want to go back! I ordered the two plates that the hostess suggested and she was right: the meat was delicious in both! We ordered the flan and it was good but not the best. Our server was sweet and polite. I think due to the lunch rush we had to call her over a few times but understandable. I had wanted to try this place for awhile and I’m glad we did. We left stuffed and so happy with how delicious everything was.

The food is delicious! I’ve been twice since I moved to the area and I’m planning to go back ASAP. I had the enchiladas suizas and torta. The classic and mango margaritas are soo good as well. Definitely recommend and will be bringing family here.

Good selection of dishes to choose from and reasonably priced. Chips are really good and the green salsa has a nice kick to it. The fajita salad was really big and tasty. Service was friendly but based on how slow they were with lots of servers standing around, they could’ve been more attentive for refills etc.

From the host, waiter, food, and drinks, this place is a 10/10. We ordered the chips, which were homemade, and queso. We had the enchiladas and carnesada. The green and red salsa was great! The drinks were delicious and strong. Our waiter was very attentive and sweet; I’m sad I didn’t get their name to mention here. Even the host and other staff had great attitudes. I highly recommend eating here!

The food is really good. I have not found too many Mexican restaurants that make really good birria tacos but Roberto’s are on point.

The price is not bad for the flavor and the amount of food you get.
The parking can sometime be an issue but luckily they share space with a few other businesses so you can always find a parking spot just not always in front of the restaurant.

It is hard to find authentic Mexican food sometimes, but this place delivered. They had a wide selection, excellent prices, and wonderful service. Seeing barbacoa and chicharron as meat options was great and both of them were excellent! The carne asada nachos were also fantastic. Excellent place!

Ive been driving by here for years and finally, I had to do it. It looked like a cool modern Mexican restaurant, I liked the name. Turns out, food was just ok, not “popping” with flavor. Beer was ok, it was cold, no draft and not a large selection. Nothing wasbimpressive with atmosphere, food, or service. Seemed like they might be trying too hard to be “upscale”. No chips and salsa. I ordered a quesadilla entre and the caso with chorizo, for appetizer. It was ok with their salsa Verde. I drank 2 beers. No wow factor flavor wise or anything else. I was disappointed. Nothing was bad, just less than I expected.

Yesterday I stopped at this place to have dinner and honestly I probably should’ve kept driving, But this is my experience. The parking is not the best at all be mindful that it looks like they share parking with other establishments. We sat at the bar and it took the waiters/bartender to acknowledge us after about 5 to 6 minutes sitting there finally they take our order for drinks and my girlfriend got the Paloma I got a blackberry jalapeño margarita and I can honestly say cocktails are not their thing at all! honestly I think it was the bartender I don’t think he knows what he’s doing respectfully “but he had good service” the Paloma was more on the bitter side basically drinking lime juice and as far as my margarita, it had tons of jalapeño seeds and bits of blackberry where every time I drink it, I was chewing on seeds and the consistency of the drink was very thick, never seen a Margarita move that way so I had to return it back. I couldn’t drink it and then I said you know what I’ll take a regular house frozen margarita you can’t mess that up. ♂️ and well they did but it was tolerable there’s only two restrooms in the restaurant and they’re both unisex the restrooms were clean I mean the whole place was nice and clean. The wait time for our food to arrive was incredible. Although this is a Mexican restaurant, they don’t give you complementary salsa and chips you have to pay for that. Now I got the street taco plate, which was five mini tacos and Charro beans the tacos were delicious especially with their green sauce the meat extremely tender, packed with flavor! That’s what I would recommend if you eat there. The Charro beans on the other hand were very mediocre. I mean completely bland flavorless nothing to go crazy about honestly I could’ve done without the beans if that’s what they’re serving. Overall I give this place three stars, agin this is my experience maybe yours is better

If your latino and want breakfast like your in Mexico and have gringo friends that you want them to eat good mexican breakfast, this is the place, tacos de Machacado ala Mexicana are the best.

Had the Chilaquiles en Salsa verde. They were pretty good and filling, the salsa de tomatillo was a little bit too tangy for my taste but other than that, the food was very good and the salsa verde that they bring out had a GOOD KICK to it. Definetly has the authentic Mexican flavor. Will definetly stop by if in the area to try their dinner/lunch menu.
