Ernesto's Mexican Food

4.1

About this business

Enjoy al fresco dining under the tall trees in a bustling Midtown neighborhood, or indoors, where the decor is cheerfully tropical with mariachi music in the background. The cuisine is Mexican with a definite flair for healthy and interesting interpretations of traditional fare like burritos, carnitas and more. You will not find greasy tortillas filled with lard-laden refried beans at this popular spot. This is a vegetarian-friendly place. Beer and Margaritas are available.

Dined outside for dinner and ordered the 3 item platter with rice and beans. The food was very delicious, not too salted, not to saucy, it was just right. Had some “to go.” Highly recommended.

First off, I’ve been to Ernesto’s more times than I can count. The food has always been great and service has been fantastic - until today! My sister and I went today for a late lunch (around 2:30pm) and ordered two of our go to items. My sister ordered a three item (chicken Colorado flour taco, chicken Colorado quesadilla and a cheese enchilada), while I ordered the Carne Asada Tampiquena.

So went to Ernestos tonight. 4 out of 10. Highly disappointed. Fish tacos were great. Service was horrible. Didn't gave the tequila I asked for, which was basic. Server did not listen to a single word I said. Asked for barbacoa taco with flour tortilla, came outbwurh two corn tortillas with meat with what seemed barbeque sauce. Sorry, but I make fire tacos and this looked weak. I returned it and dud not eat the cat food.. They fell off hard. I will not be going back and I've been there over 100 times. Sad but true. I hate to... read more
