"**Quality:** The food was solid, and the drinks were delightful. I sampled two margaritas: the Spicy Mango Margarita and the Habanero Cucumber Margarita. Both were enjoyable, but the Habanero Cucumber Margarita offered a particularly unique and delicious flavor combination. For appetizers, the Steak Nachos were fantastic; I appreciated how they were layered to ensure every bite was packed with flavor. The Carnitas Burrito was okay, but it was the least impressive dish as it was a bit bland. On the other hand, the Camarones Tacos were outstanding, especially with the refreshing mango salsa. **Quantity:** The portions were generous, and the drinks were strong. **Value:** The prices were reasonable, with cocktails ranging from $12 to $15, the Steak Nachos at $17, the Carnitas Burrito at $14, and the Camarones Tacos at $12. **Ambiance:** Mexico Authentico is situated in Park Slope, featuring a small outdoor patio that is charmingly decorated and a cozy indoor dining area. Tables line the left wall, while a small bar is on the right. The walls are adorned with vibrant decorations, and lively Spanish music plays in the background. A large television is positioned toward the back but was off during our visit. **Crowd:** It was bustling for a Friday night, likely influenced by the rain, which kept many locals nearby, searching for a spot to enjoy a drink. **Service:** The staff was friendly and accommodating. **Parking:** Be aware that parking is limited in this residential area."

"This place is a cross between a bakery and a breakfast/lunch place. But it misses on both ends.The place is usually busy...we sat down and were attended right away. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, chilaquiles...my mother-in-law had grilled chicken breast.The biggest issue here was the timing of the food...they took a while that by the time my food arrived, it was lukewarm. The biscuits were Mexican style biscuits, which is fine, but it's flavor didn't blend well with the gravy. The gravy wasn't thick nor savory as you can see in the picture. It was also quite huge, the biscuit...but for that much biscuit you need a good thick gravy to accompany it...which it didn't have.The chilaquiles were lukewarm. IF they had been nice and piping hot, I probably would've enjoyed them, but they were lukewarm at best. My opinion is that held them back because of the grilled chicken breast... wrong choice.Another issue with this place is the bakery itself. They have rolling doors on the displays where they have their bread options...half the doors were open halfway, so any fly could land on their donuts/empanadas. I told one of th waitresses about it ..that the rolling doors were open. The waitress went and closed it but the door rolled open slightly on its own...the bread itself is actually quite nice. They have a good selection of coffee conchas, empanadas, cookies...etc. Just keep in mind that a few flies probably landed on them already.The prices here are decent...and the portions are good.But you will find better chilaquiles and biscuits elsewhere."
