The waitstaff was friendly, and we encountered no issues with service, contrary to some reviews we've read. However, I found the food to be overpriced. The quality was good, but not exceptional—everything was fresh. We shared an interesting guacamole that came with roasted paprika and garlic, along with what seemed like homemade tortilla chips. I thought the chips could have used a little salt, but they were definitely fresh. I ordered a cauliflower taco that was intriguing, while my daughter enjoyed her taco filled with chimichurri steak. For dessert, we tried the peach cake, which had a somewhat gooey filling that wasn’t exactly what I envisioned for a peach dish, but it was still quite t...

this was our first visit to fat cactus and it will not be our last. we were very impressed by the service. we were welcomed as soon as they arrived, provided with a menu, and the waiting staff checked for us how we looked at the extensive menu. I ordered the protabello enchilada, my friend ordered the cocosnuss garnelen burrito. both were very good. we also ordered the Mexican mais on the cob, and that was absolutely excellent! we attended a concert in the sate theatre, and the restaurant is too walking, so comfortable.
The dining experience was disappointing due to the poor service. We weren't offered menus by the hostesses and had to ask twice for both the meal and drink menus. We even had to request help from a busboy to get our drinks and refills of chips with salsa. The overall service felt lacking. Additionally, despite making a reservation, we were seated in the noisy bar area, which was certainly not appreciated.
Great food! Definitely recommend the fajitas. The guacamole is so fresh too! Service is great and the ambience is always so amazing! Halloween and Christmas decorations are so cute and fun! Book a table now
Miguel was an outstanding server. The beef steak was tender and flavorful, and the al pastor tacos were delicious, while the shrimp taco wasn't overly fishy.
Great food and drinks. Guacamole especially good. Margs great! Javier, our server, was great and kept our drinks full. Thanks Javier!
Very lively colorful place! Service was attentive and quick. Food was amazing ! Highly recommend the street corn!
