Be sure to come with a big group so you can sample a bunch of dishes. Our favorites: honey ribs, steak fajitas, soft-shell crab tacos, tuna tostaditas, & of course the Don Huevo. Excellent drinks too!

Like the London original, the menu includes dishes from all across Mexico, including many specialties from the Yucatan region, plus a few non-traditional items. Read more

Nice weekend drinks & dinner spot! Make a reservation before you go! Open quesadilla really tasty & so were the tacos. Don huevo dessert YES pls! :)

Great spot. Super trendy and ultra dark (literally) Ha! The guac, yucca fries, plantains, snapper and chicken entrees wear all very good. Worth a bookmark and return visit. #BodegNegra

Food here is really good but nothing exceptional. Come here 4 cool atmosphere. Try the quesadilla- open face and very cheesy. Plantains were our favorite. The Don Huevo dessert is really a standout!!

Barrels of booze and vintage guitars line the walls of this sultry and mysterious spot. It’s perfect for those evenings when you want to unleash your inner senorita. Read more

Steak and guacamole are a must. Also, their margaritas are a staple drink.
KarstenOctober 26, 2014

sea bass tacos were very good. the chopped salad was great and the shrimp ceviche.
Brittany IFebruary 4, 2014
The pork belly carnitas taco is probably the best taco I've ever had. Also, order the el diablo for an awesome tequila based drink
Victoria NatenzonDecember 18, 2014
Words can't describe how amazing and flavorful the food here is. Especially the corn...I need to come back. Dying to try the dessert.

So good I went back a week later. Some things are hit or miss but the tacos are must.

Go for the tacos and that corn salad-amazing cocktails are the cherry on top.
Thysa ZevenbergenJuly 17, 2015
Great food, a bit too dark for my liking. I prefer to see the food I put in my mouth.

The skirt steak was awesome. Service was perfect.
Isa SierraOctober 29, 2017
The food isn’t specially fresh or good. In comparison with other Mexican places, food isn’t great. And the music is way too loud. Impossible to have a conversation.
Angelina ZeppieriMarch 11, 2015
the Don Huevo dessert is a must!
Erin TaylorAugust 29, 2014
Fish tacos are great. Service is less than stellar.

20 speakers pumping past top 40s (They could have gotten away with 8 speakers for the size of the space).

Honestly, the tacos were not worth the hype. Also incredibly dark in there

Been here 10+ times
Fried plantains is to die for
Barton SmithAugust 9, 2016
Overpriced but if that's not a problem then it's a good option. Pork belly was the best.
Eduardo RamirezMarch 12, 2021
This is a wannabe fancy chili’s.
