Tio Gordo’s Cocina

Great food. Good atmosphere. Appropriately priced. Fast service. Comfortable setting

Would not go there again. Food was served cold, couldn't find waitress to have it nuked. Rice was either old or not cooked. Soup ok but not great. Enchilada shells were hard, like they had been sitting around for awhile, not enough sauce on them either. Ordered fried ice cream for dessert and it was melted and basically just a bowl of mush. Very disappointing experience in view of the fact that we came there based on your ratings. The thing is too, is that it was not busy when we were there so there was no excuse for the food being cold. Not impressed with portions either, nothing like what is shown on the website, very small compared to your pictures. A waste of $68.00.

Pretty good food but terribly slow service. We were seated right away. Greeted right away. Drinks ordered and delivered right away. Food ordered then nothing. The kitchen was ridiculously slow. It was a busy night but either the kitchen is undersized or understaffed for heavy business or they are just slow. I'm going with either slow or always understaffed. I've been to this restaurant 3 times and the service is ALWAYS slow. After we finally got our food the waitress did a disappearing act. We waited forever for drink refills and the bill.

This restaurant has an amazing alfresco section I only wish I had known about it when I came into the restaurant on a beautiful day and sat in the cold. All the food was spicy, but good. Kind of pricey for want you get.

Staff was friendly and engaging.
They only offer one bowl of complimentary chips/salsa so do not go in expecting more without being charged.
My chicken/chorizo meal was pretty good and my ladies Mole she said was fantastic and i tend to agree, even though i am not a mole fan. it is something i would eat again.
we want to go back and just may but the lack of salsa (not that greatest to begin with) is a bit of a turn off.
