"I was so excited to meet up with some friends at Besito as I have been here a few times previously and sat at the bar for some apps and drinks which were great. This time was very different. We arrived for our 7:00 p.m. reservation and we were running a little behind our friends who we were meeting there. We were greeted by a hostess that was sitting on her phone at one of the chairs behind the hostess stand. It immediately set the tone for our dinner which was messy and inconsistent. We started our order with a frozen la casa margarita and a spicy margarita that was a recommendation by our very friendly server. We received them and the frozen cocktail was extremely strong and tasted of only frozen tequila with some color. It wasn't a crafted cocktail by any means. Our apps were great! The guacamole was good as were the tostadas topped with meet cheese and veggies. For our entrees, our friends ordered salads which were entirely too overdressed and inedible in addition to my tacos which I had to send back due to the potent smell of a really dirty grill. I never ever send anything back to the kitchen. I'm an industry person who completely understands an off night or the kitchen being overwhelmed but it really smelled so bad that I literally could not eat it. The enchiladas we ordered were bland but edible so we shared. We also sat without any water and had to ask multiple times for refills on the same empty glasses. Had these meals had spice and flavor, it would have been a real issue. Overall I wouldn't come back or recommend to anyone. I'm surprised that the main line has no good Mexican options other than El Limon. I was so hopeful but was very disappointed."
