" I visited the Mexican Festival with a group of my friends, and we all had an incredible time! The live mariachi band added a touch of authenticity that set the mood for a fun night out. The food was delicious—particularly enjoyed the tacos and fresh guacamole. However, we did experience slow service, and it was challenging to get our server’s attention at times. The drinks were reasonably priced, especially during happy hour. Overall, a great place for dinner and drinks, but just be prepared for some wait times. I would say it's more of a 3, leaning towards a 4 on a good day. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love this place because I heard such good things, but I left feeling disappointed. The atmosphere was lively, with the music setting a great tone, but the food was hit or miss. I tried the enchiladas, which lacked the flavor I expected. The service was slow, which added to my frustration. I waited ages for my drinks and had to flag down the waiter multiple times. I appreciate that it's a popular spot, but I think they need to work on their service to match the hype. I would give this visit a 2 out of 5. " (*Curated Review*)

" My dining experience here was quite memorable. I celebrated my birthday at the Mexican Festival and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. The carne asada was cooked to perfection, and the portion sizes were generous—definitely worth the price! I felt welcomed from the moment I walked in, and the staff sang a lovely birthday greeting that made it even more special. However, the noise level was high due to the lively music, which made it hard to have intimate conversations. Nonetheless, I had a great time and would recommend this place for those looking to have fun. I rate it a solid 4 out of 5. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a really enjoyable dinner with my family at the Mexican Festival recently. The atmosphere was very inviting and festive. I loved the fajitas; they were sizzling and full of flavor, which definitely reflected real Mexican cooking. Children particularly liked the enchiladas, and the staff was accommodating, making sure our little ones were catered for. A downside was that our orders took a while to come out. Still, the experience was enjoyable enough, and I think we will return at some point in the future. I rate it a 4 for this visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place was just okay. I’ve heard great things about it but I left not feeling the hype. The Tortilla Soup was decent, but lacked the flavor punch I expected. The ambiance was lively, which I appreciated, but the service was just alright. I had to remind my waiter about my order, and that was kind of annoying. It wasn't a bad experience, but I wouldn't rush back anytime soon. I would rate it a low 3. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Mexican Festival is always a fun place! I've visited several times and each experience has been wonderful. Of course, this time was no different! The salsa was fresh and the chips were the perfect complement. I opted for the carnitas, which are deliciously seasoned and tender. My one complaint? The service left a little to be desired; it could be faster. But the overall atmosphere and experience definitely made up for it. I would recommend it if you're looking for a lively night out with good food! Overall rating: 4! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at the Mexican Festival is wonderful! The decor and music create a festive vibe that makes for a great night out. However, the service can be slow. I went during a busy Friday evening and had to wait quite a while for my food to come out. The pasta is a must-try; it truly felt homemade! I just wish the servers were a bit quicker; otherwise, it would have been perfect. I'd give them a 4 overall. " (*Curated Review*)
