"I give this place a 3 star for several reasons. My family came in today for the first time. Could have been 2 stars if not for some saving graces. The atmosphere and environment is 5 star, they truly go all out on the props and authentic music. The bathrooms were very clean, 5 stars as well. That's where it goes downhill. They have NO kids menu, so expect to pay full adult menu price for a simple cheese in tortilla. Not kid friendly at all. Secondly, our waiter was fairly rude from the get go. He did not say anything but was pushy and you could tell he had an attitude with us, maybe because we brought our kids? I don't know, in any case, the food was also okay...3 stars at best on the food. My wife and I ordered the chimichangas and they were not great, and we've had them at 4-5 other Mexican restaurants. Last, the banditos house margarita was pretty basic and smaller margarita glass than most restaurants for the price. I make the same margaritas at home that taste way better, with the jose gold, grand mariner, and store bought margarita mix.... Nothing fancy there and yet mine still taste better as an amateur.... So no, not impressed on the margarita either, 2 stars there. I've had really good margaritas at other Mexican restaurants for the same price and larger portions, so it's not even a high bar for my expectations. Overall 2 stars, but the atmosphere and clean bathrooms bump it up to 3 stars. Don't bring kids unless you wish to pay adult menu prices."
