I stopped in last week and have to say the atmosphere was really nice and they apparently remodeled recently; it was like stepping onto the set of Robert Rodriguez movie. Very relaxing open air as I sat at the bar, enjoyed a draft beer and terrific entrée. . I highly recommend!

My favorite restaurant for over 30 years. The best. Small party for my mother's birthday. Great service, great food. Cevice is to die for. Can't get enough of the margharitas.

Authentic Mexican cuisine - haven’t had a dish there that I haven’t enjoyed - especially their fish special as it’s always delicious (most recent was red snapper topped with crab meat!). Guacamole appetizer is addicting! Add in their frozen margaritas and crepas and it all makes for an enjoyable evening! The family who own the restaurant are always welcoming and friendly!

We liked the more traditional Mexican food that this place serves. Also the restaurant makes you feel like in a Mexican small restaurant. The taste is still not exactly the same, but that's really hard to get being in another country.

Authentic and delicious

Easily the worst margaritas I’ve ever tasted — the pitcher was watery and tasted of bottled margarita mix. The salsa was watery and flavorless. The fajitas were OK, but bland and basically without salt. Extremely disappointing.

Good food and drinks. Owner is always present and personable. Nice rooftop deck.

Before the pandemic we would enjoy eating at Tia Queta periodically, but we have not been dining out for a year now. Yesterday we ordered takeout for a special occasion, my wife's birthday. The Chiles Rellenos and Pescado a la Mexicana could not have been tastier! I am sure that this past year has been difficult for this small, family-run restaurant, and we are happy to see that they are getting through this. Support your favorite local restaurants!

Great food! They always have very fresh fish and the mole enchiladas are to die for. In the summertime head to the rooftop bar for a pitcher of margaritas and ceviche.
