Landed from Texas and came straight here .
what a perfect way to start the trip. The atmosphere was awesome, the margaritas HIT, and the food was incredible. Our server Camden was top tier, and the manager Michael brought the energy and made our day. Highly recommend this place to anyone!
Camden was a gem! Brought the energy for our birthday boy.
Fun banter, good service, and an overall good time!

The food is good enough but the atmosphere is LOUD! You have to literally shout to communicate with the others at your table. And I didn't understand the robot things on stilts dancing around to rave music. How does this relate to Mexican f

Decided to give The Mexicano another chance after my not so great initial visit, and our experience during happy hour was way better. The nachos and quesadilla were filling and delicious, and priced great for happy hour. You can't beat the drin
I have never tried such delicious appetizers.
Absolutely delicious, service was great, quick service and the salsa was divine. Really great drink selection as well.
We Went To The Mexicano For A Birthday Dinner.
It Was Alright... The Staff Was Great! The Food Personally I Felt Could've Had More Flavor. There Was An Issue With My Meal Which Resulted In About Thirty Minutes Of Waiting For The Correct Dish. Menu Selection I Have To Say! Some Great Options!

Love sitting in the bar area when Kayla is working!! Super good service with a great attitude. The bar nachos are awesome - both the chicken rings and the birria!! A go to spot for my friends and me!

It's supper nice on the inside and outside the service is ok. My food was wrong and it was disgusting the only thing that was good was the taco meat.
Excellent Mexican restaurant. Must go!
This place is phenomenal. Fresh food, amazing flavors, with excellent service and atmosphere. Several types of guacamole. I had the ribeye steak and it was cooked to perfection. The flan is the best I have ever had.
Fantastic food with an excellent menu.
Service was on point, polite and timely. Ambiance was out of the world.
Very authentic, high end Mexican food at a reasonable price.
Even though they were busy, the server made it a point to make our party feel like a priority. And food/drinks came out quick. The DJ providing the music offered a nice touch to the atmosphere.

Loved the decor, service was very good, fun concept of the margarita candy bar, the food was good but we probably would try something different next time. We had the street tacos and although they were good we've definitely had better. The Baja
Not worth going back to.
While the ambiance looks great, the food for value leaves you wanting. We started with Melina's street corn and should have left there. Overpriced wouldn't even cover it. $12 for one corn cob and the saddest part, less than 25% was seasoned

The food was tasty the ambience was vibrant and energetic, the service was friendly but slightly understaffed, otherwise it would have been a 5 star experience. Overall I would recommend if you like an energetic dining experience.

I loved the wonderful atmosphere and friendly service.
We ordered seafood tostadas, and they were so fresh and crispy. Everyone raved about the empanadas and the birria burritos. For dessert, the churros were cute and fun, crispy and juicy. I can say I was completely satisfied with the service and delici

I have 2 updates since my last review in 2024.
We went back when they reopened after the unfortunate fire. New menu! They had all day happy hour and taco Thursdays. We went on a Sunday and they had dancers and robots, it was pretty crazy. Too loud for me but it was definitely a fun environment. T
Claudia Itzel made the whole experience outstanding.
She was attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about providing excellent service. The food was fantastic as always, but Claudia really made the visit memorable. Can't wait to come back!
Stopped by for happy hour the other day.
Love how their HH goes from 11-6 everyday. Bar area only, but if you get there early enough you can grab a seat (it does get crowded closer to 4/430). Everyone that works here is always really friendly and the vibe is always on point. The happy hour
One of our fav places!!!! Great happy hour! Eddie R.
is our fav, love when we get lucky enough to have him as our server! Great food, great drinks, great vibes.
Great happy hour.
Nachos are on point! Tacos satisfy. Margaritas for six bucks. Yes ma'am. And they are good. Five star service from Kayla, our midwestern gal. Just enough attention that we never waited for anything. Giving this a four star because the

Happy was available!! I had the chicken and beef tacos from hr menu. They were both delicious and very large We shared the chili con queso and it was also delicious Had a unique cheese in it and it was great The place was so cute and very colo
Excellent food and excellent service by Camden.
Only compliant is that the music was too loud to allow easy conversation.
My friend and I went in for a weekend lunch.
Our server, Claudia, was the best! She was quick, friendly, and super fun! She gave us drink recommendations and it was an overall great experience.
I hope the Margaritas are amazing, because the food is not.
Plain spoken, no thanks. The appetizer, Queso w/ chorizo and poblanos served with handmade tortillas. Delicious! Chips and salsa, salsa is a chipotle heavy onion favor, but very good. Three entrees were purchased and it was a lot of food. One chick
Great Food and Fun Atmosphere
This was the best Mexican food we had in Arizona. The restaurant provided the best location for us to meet for dinner and catch up with family. The atmosphere was lively and fun although could be loud when DJ or band is playing. We never felt rushed
100% YES
AMAZING! The food is very good. Everything is very fresh and their menu is thoughtfully crafted. On top of that, the atmosphere is beautiful and vibrant. The GM Will is outstanding and takes care of everyone in the restaurant. He made our visit very
Disappointing Cinco de Mayo Experience
Our visit was deeply underwhelming. The music was so loud that it made conversation at our table nearly impossible. Service was equally disappointing—we waited over 30 minutes just to receive water and place a drink order. The biggest letdown, howe

Connect with users posting reservations for The Mexicano Scottsdale
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with The Mexicano Scottsdale. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Mexicano Scottsdale at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Mexicano Scottsdale page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at The Mexicano Scottsdale to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Mexicano Scottsdale!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
