Just got back from the Mexico Cafe. That is undoubtedly one of the most mismanaged disasters I have ever encountered. We got there at 2:25 pm and requested a booth. We were told it would be a 5-10 min. wait. Twenty mins. later we were seated . What was bothersome was that as we walked through the restaurant I spoted eight open booths. They had at least 9 other parties waiting for booths behind us and they had ample seating for most of them, but chose to have them wait. Customers seem an inconvenience to the management. As we walked past the separate room they have behind the double doors I spotted only two of six booths being utilized. I was told that room was reserved for a big party. However, by the time we left there were still empty booths and no big party. Wow!! Can't ask for worse management than that. I also agree with all the others. Their prices skyrocketed after the remodeling. It's obvious they aim to recoup their construction costs from customers within a short period of time. Mexican food is one of the cheapest cuisine's to prepare. However, they charge prices that would be commensurate with a fine steak house or seafood restaurant. Other customers were right with regard to the attitude issue. It appears the attitude not only exists with the servers, it also exists with the management as well. When I questioned the unjustified wait to the obviously young, inexperienced manager I was simply ignored. Last time for this place. I won't patronize a restaurant that has such little regard for its customers.
