"This was our first time here. It was a little busy during lunch but not so where it took 10 minute before getting a hostess to come seat us. Nevertheless we was seated and our waiter was prompt to come get our drink orders. He seemed rushed the whole visit and I wasn 't able to ask him several questions because of his steady disappearing act. Who knew I was going to get lunch and a magic show!! I had a mango margarita and it was so yummy and refreshing. I 'm not much of a drinker but I 'm glad I had it there for what came later... I asked when he took our food order if he could bring out some warm corn tortillas and butter (like I get at any Mexican restaurant) and he flat out told me they didn 't do that.. umm ok?!? Our food arrives and on my 2nd bite of the taco the shredded lettuce gets stuck in my throat and I can 't swallow. I 'm choking. Not one person other than my husband came to assist me as I ran outside to fix myself and grateful I didn 't die in front of everyone. I came back inside and I 'm shaking and hence the part where I 'm glad I had a margarita there to calm my nerves. I picked at a cheese enchilada and ended up taking my food home in a box. I mean who could eat after that. My husband loved his lunch and mine as he ate it for dinner last night lol, I still wasn 't able to eat out of fear. The only thing he said he didn 't like was the taco as it wasn 't as good as another business in Denham Springs. I get it! The little few bites I was able to enjoy was really delicious and I might try them again someday."

"Went to dinner at Mexico Authentico on Friday night. A high-quality Mexican spot with lots of unique margarita flavors and good food options.Quality: Solid Mexican food and delicious drinks. I had two types of margaritas, the Spicy Mango Margarita and the Habanero Cucumber Margarita. Both were tasty, but the flavor pairing in the Habanero Cucumber Margarita was unique and delicious. For food the Steak Nachos are very good, appreciate how they were layered to ensure each bite comes with lots of flavor. The Carnitas Burrito was fine, the weakest of our food items as it was a bit bland. The Camarones Tacos were excellent, loved the mango salsa to add some freshness.Quantity: Large portions of everything and strong drinks.Value: $12-$15 for Cocteles. $17 for Steak Nachos. $14 for the Carnitas Burrito. $12 for Camarones Tacos.Ambiance: Mexico Authentico is a Mexican restaurant located in Park Slope. They have a small outdoor patio, which is always decorated, and a small indoor dining area. Tables line the left wall, and a small bar can be found on the right. The walls are covered with different flashy decorations and Spanish music played loudly in the background. One large television hung towards the back, but was not on during our visit.Crowd: Very busy for Friday night dinner. Felt like the rain kept a lot of people local and looking for a place to enjoy a drink.Service: Friendly and adaptable staff.Parking: Limited parking in residential area."
