The atmosphere was nice, but I feel like my meal was far too overpriced with a subpar taste. I ordered 1 cocktail, 1 small chips and guacamole (portion size was only enough for one person), and the sandwich shown in the picture. My bill with 20% tip was over $60.The food quality did not match the price in my opinion.
Don’t feel like cooking on a Sunday? Head on down to this place for a nice cocktail (4 stars), ceviche tostadas (4 stars), beef tongue tacos (5 stars), carnitas tacos (3 stars, because I missed the crispiness). The service was accommodating and friendly — not pressuring us to order quickly, turning on the heat lamp outside to buffer the windy cooler temperatures, coming back to check up on us and provide water carafe and glasses when we asked for some water. We ended with the churros (3 stars) because they were slightly undercooked inside but came with a nice tequila sauce.
Good food and good cocktails. However, the busier they get, the worse their service gets. Went there with some colleagues and the waiter never took my order. Then, after I flagged them down to give them my order, the food was never delivered. Everyone got their order but me. I asked about it and still never received it. I was stuck snacking on chips and appetizers. Eventually our group dissipated and I just left and grabbed dinner on the way home.
For two of us, we each had a drink and ordered three dishes: fish tacos, guacamole and chips, and quesadillas. Recommended by the restaurant staff. All tasted quite authentic. So overall good food but not sure if I will think of it as a go-to place when I'm in town next time. I liked how it was neither too salty nor too greasy. The drink wasn't overly sweet. We walked in without a reservation around 6pm and more than half of the tables were occupied.
Omg the food at San Agus is SO delicious. Found this place randomly while looking for a last minute dinner place and we were more than satisfied with our dishes. We had the Chicken Tinga Tostadas, the Quesabirria and the Gorditas Chicharrones. The quesabirria was definitely our favorite dish - it was super juicy, flavorful and filling. And the drinks were absolutely delicious! Had the margarita and a sangria and we loved them both.
The food is incredible! Super fresh and tasty! The cocktails are amazing. Friendly service!
We reached there by 8:05 and asked the host whether they are open and we can order food. She responded they close at 9 and the kitchen is open for another 30 to 40 minutes and then guide us to one of the tables, only to be left there without menu or anyone helping us for another 30 min. We where surprised why nobody care to help us!! When I asked the bartender what should we do to order, finally one of the staff and then the manager came and told us the kitchen is closed at 8:30!!! and there are only few items that they can provide for us!!!! This is definitely not a right way to treat customers!!!!
My first time here. I was very impressed. Staff are very nice and helpful. Bartender was Amazing making us special drinks he made up. I will return and highly recommend.
The time has come for Palo Alto to have a great Mexican restaurant, but alas, this one is not it. While the chicken tacos were ok, they were extremely small for the price, no salsa, just fairly plain tacos. The outdoor tables are nice, with an urban flair, unfortunately also with urban chaos: very loud beeping noise every 5 minutes from cars entering and leaving the building. Very distracting.
Flavorful and eclectic menu. I had the cubano sandwich, which had a lovely fresh jalapeño twang, nice. Colorful and creative drinks. Outdoor seating accommodated our 15 person meetup group!
