Our server, Max was awesome! Answered all of our questions. Was patient and attentive. The beet salad was AMAZING Carne en sus jugos… AMAZING!! Birria-Delicious. All the tacos- Great! Calamari-Good stuff! The OCTOPUS!!AMAZING!!! Cooked perfectly, seasoned well, everything in the bowl complimented the octopus. Definitely give this place a try! Also, try the piñacolada. Scientifically prepared for our enjoyment! Soooo good!! The reason for the 4/5 stars, my plantain chips were burnt and the mole dish lacked the mole taste and any other taste; it was too spicy.

Came on a Friday night in a group of 4 and we were seated outdoor! We started with two appetizers and a few drinks, and I’ve gotta say, the appetizer portions were bigger than we thought. So we ended up only ordering two main courses and a dessert to share!

Walked in at 5pm on a Thurs evening, no reservations. Offered us a table w a 1.5 hr turn as they had a res expected at 6:30. No prob, appreciated that. Good, attentive service. Had the lengua special and ceviche. Both yummy but nothing I’d call mind blowing. BF not a lengua or “mystery meat” guy but he was able to eat the lengua so that should speak volumes. He loved the ceviche but I found it just OK. My drink was fine, was hoping for more smoke, more spice. Glad we came but I cant see us returning or craving the food unfortunately!

My family and I had a wonderful experience trying Maestro for the first time tonight. We had a reservation and they sat us outside, which wasn’t optimal, but the weather cooperated. The appetizer servings were not shareable but we strongly recommend the oysters with aguachile. Not spicy at all. Tortillas cost extra but were worth every penny. They are thick, and freshly made.

My family frequents this restaurant that serves elevated and modern Mexican fare.

I’m giving two stars because of the perceived ambience and what could be a really cool experience UNTIL you realize you’re in a back alleyway being served way overpriced food that you then later have to go get fast food because you’re still starving. The live music and dancing was nice but not enough to make up for the skimpy portions and lack luster dishes.

While venturing in the city of Pasadena someone recommended to have dinner at this place. And we were pleasingly delighted with the Mezcal cocktails and a delicious dinner

Absolutely lovely! My sons treated me to a beautiful Mexican Mother’s Day celebration. Our beautiful server Natalia made the experience special. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. The drinks were such a treat also. Must have the flight of tequilas. I enjoyed it. Please try the Tres Leche Carrot cake and the cheese cake. So special and so very delicious.

Absolutely delicious. Elevated Mexican that Pasadena needed. Cocktails were on point, beautifully garnished. Server (Zack) was so very attentive and knowledgeable. Had a (can’t remember the name) wrapped tortilla bean appetizer, Mole, tres leches carrot cake, and (off the menu) Liquor 43 dessert cocktail. So excited to come back with just about anyone.
