Milpa Mexican Restaurant

I came here a few years ago and the food was good, but it had a very nice atmosphere with a large bar, and and you could have drinks while you're waiting for a table. Now the atmosphere is kind of weird, they took the bar away, asked if I can get a drink while I was waiting for a table and they said that is is not allowed, and the restaurant is half full. I don't see why there's a wait. But the food is better than it was last time but they lost her atmosphere. Update, I just had their Taco Tuesday tacos, and they are fantastic! It's hard to find tacos that good in the USA, and the other day I tried there. Caliente enchiladas, and the green sauce was amazing.

My partner ordered delivery and I ordered a vegan entree and I was given what looks like charro beans (w bacon or pork) instead of the black beans. I get very sick when I eat pork, as many vegetarians do when they are accidentally served meat. Please be careful if you have dietary restrictions as there seems to be a disregard for these things. I also ordered a salad that was extremely small for the price and was missing toppings promised in the description. I sincerely hope this was a bad night because it is usually pretty hard to find truly vegetarian options for Mexican food where my partner would eat as well.

The food was absolutely fantastic! Did a Google search of Mexican restaurants near me and this was on the recommendation list. I had the classic mochajajete. It was GREAT. It had steak, chicken, sausage and shrimp with avocado and green pepper in a hot stone bowl. My wife had asada tacos. My nephew had steak enchiladas. The presentation was great on all the food. Next time I will order the steak medium rare as the bowl continues to cook the meats. Overall the food was great! We had margaritas which were great as well. Very smooth, great flavor. House margs. Chips and salsa, good also. The overall experience was great. Our server was very attentive and was very helpful with the menu. We were talking about how good the food was today, so it definitely left an impression. We will be back for sure. I would highly recommend. I will be going back and trying the rest of the menu. Very good atmosphere.

Great food and service. We made reservations for a large group without ever having even seen the restaurant. Upon arrival we were a little nervous as the building looked run down. But to our surprise the interior was better and the server was wonderful. She waited on our large group and even divided up the checks with no issues. Our drinks were refilled promptly and the food was great, especially the fajitas. Definitely recommend.

I've had positive experiences with La Milpa in the past but something must have changed since the last time we were here. There was a 20 minute wait while half the restaurant was empty. It must have had something to do with being understaffed, because when we were seated, we barely saw our waitress for the two hours we were there. Our water glasses were refilled once. The food took forever to come out and when it did it was cold. We paid $16.50 each for extremely syrupy margaritas that were so sweet I got nauseous. I liked my food but it was cold and by the time it came out I was not hungry anymore. I will say our waitress was sweet and apologetic about the wait. Which I appreciate. Management needs to do better.

Went to Milpa for the fist time. Margaritas were good. But the atmosphere was off. It was so cold they never turned the heat on (it was 38 degrees outside). The bar didn’t feel like a bar, maybe they are remodeling I’m not sure. Asked the waitress for a menu and after a while she came back and told me they didn’t have any and for me to look on the website. Just had nachos to eat and they were to salty to my taste. Will try to give them another chance in the near future.
