Great place to hangout with friends! The drinks n good were amazing! The mojito was excellent and so refreshing. Shrimp tacos were delicious. It had a decent outdoor seating space and with good music. The outdoor seating was by the road side but not too noisy. We really loved the place for the drinks.

Had dinner here on a Friday night, great date spot with no wait! Frozen margarita was a bit watery, but elotes and carne asada were amazing! Service and vibes were top notch, we will definitely be back

Solid Mexican place! Not the best, but not the worst either. I’ve been a few times and my fajitas just seemed like they needed more seasoning. I understand it’s tough with everyone preferring different salt levels, but I’m used to fajitas being more flavorful. That being said; the salsa is delicious, servers are nice, and the churros are definitely a must try. I’ll be back to try some more dishes and see if anything wows me.

All I can say is wow! We went here to celebrate my son’s fourth birthday and everyone was friendly from start to finish. The food was excellent. The atmosphere was genuine. The shrimp tacos were perfect and not overdone as they typically tend to be. Our waitress, Rosi, was on top of everything, providing great service with a smile and made us feel welcomed. She handled our large party with care and attention to detail. Please support this great family owned business!

I am very picky when it comes to Mexican food. I absolutely found this place to be delicious with excellent service. I am so happy I found this restaurant in the suburbs. The service was stellar! I never leave reviews but this place was so amazing. It’s a place you should go with friends or family. I ordered enchiladas suizas and we also ordered the carnitas plate, and a fantastic Mango margarita.

My party stopped in at 8:50 pm prior to close on a Friday night. Their was a fair bit of customers still. The food was worth any wait. We tried a ton of different dishes, most of which were tacos. We had Shrimp and Mahi Mahi tacos. The seafood tacos were the perfect consistency, not soggy and not overly crisp they were perfect. The chips provided with meal are freshly made and the salsa had a good kick to it. Their guacamole was also fresh and had a good spice as well. We did not try the desserts but they have a delicious looking Tres Leches. I’ll have to try it out next time. My recommendation is to stop in at this gem of a restaurant for dinner and a drink.

El Mero Mero has become a regular spot for us, for a good reason. Their menu never disappoints, and the drinks perfectly complements the delicious dishes. The inviting ambiance adds a touch to every visit.

We tried this little gem after living nearby for 3 years and were we missing out! Staff was friendly, atmosphere was upbeat and comfy. The pros: I had chicken enchiladas with mole sauce that was sublime = chicken cooked perfectly, rice and beans, very good. My husband enjoyed his steak tacos very much too. The cons: the sangria was very strong, not the fruity blend of wine and fruit juice/ very dark. The chips and salsa were good, but you’re given a very small serving of salsa and when we asked for a refill to eat with our meal, we were told the second serving would be an additional 2.50. I maybe get the extra order of the homemade chips would have a change, but the for the salsa it seemed a bit much. We are looking forward to going back again soon.

Every now and then I have seen this restaurant and I wanted to give it a try, It was a Sunday around 1pm so it was not as busy as other days and since it was raining we couldn’t seat outside. Jenny our server led us to our table and I think was the only person working that day, she is bilingual so that was a plus. She did take our drink order and it did not take long for her to bring them, on the other hand the food took a very long time. As for the food, it was good, we had the queso fundido, enchiladas trio, steak fajitas, enchiladas Guanajuato and Enchiladas Suizas, The plates are big enough to share. Perhaps I’ll try something else next time and it might be better. Also next time I hope it is a better day so we can seat outside to enjoy the weather while eating. They do have free parking on the back of the restaurant, it is shared with other businesses. They do give chips and salsa while you wait for the food as well. The open space looks nice and plenty of tables to choose from. I did enjoy the music, they played Cumbia among other types.

Our first visit and it won’t be our last. Great drinks. Great food. Great service. Jenny was simply the best and we’ll be back because of you. Next time we go we’re going to ask for you. Only downside, but a simple fix, get at least a few physical menus for those that prefer them. Not all of us like the QR menus. Thank you
