    Service and ambiance were nice. However, the starter tasted bland and had a strong oily flavor, reminiscent of very bad spring rolls. The cheese dip was meh, your supermarket version probably tastes better. We ordered the chipotle peanut dip out of curiosity and it tasted like some asian peanut sauce… with only the slightest hint of chipotle if you really focused on it. The extra sauce cost 3€, way too much. Based on that I would stay away from the „experimental“ starters. Probably best to stick to the standard nachos. The main was much better. Fajita was great flavor-wise. Chicken strips would have been better (which is actually standard in fajitas), the cubes were kind of huge and not a good fit for small tortillas. Still, for 14€ (fajita special on sundays) it was fair enough. I wouldnt pay 19€ (regular price) though. We had some virgin cocktails as well, they were fine too. Overall, go there with friends or so but don’t expect authentic mexican food.

    I ordered food there to be picked up for a gathering and everything was perfect! The mix they proposed to us was great and the quantities and quality were perfect. The guests loved it. Also the people handling it are easy going and helpful 👍

    Great place to go for a drink or Mexican-style food. The decoration of the site is nice, recreating an old Mexican Cantina but with modern features too. I would recommend the guacamole if you are not so hungry and want something light and pleasant. On Friday after 23, the pace plays Latin rhythms, basically salsa, bachata, and kizomba. The atmosphere from the place is excellent, friendly people to dance with, some of them skilled as hell, and good music. I definitely recommend this place for a date or night out with friends, there is a lot of variety you could enjoy.

    The most pleasant Joe Pena visit I've had. Good burger. And cocktail. Friendly service.

    The place was a disappointing experience. The ambience was nice, but the seating was rather uncomfortable. Service was probably not as experienced and spilled both my drinks while serving. Food was OK. A lot of cheese for my liking. Overall, nice for drinks, but not for a well rounded dining experience.

    Very cool location. Very authentic with lots of beer to chose. We loved the time here...

    really nice atmosphere for a light night drink with friends, the outdoor section is really nice, and the staff is always on point, the drinks are a little bit price, but i guess it comes with the location.

    Delicious food (especially Fajita), top service, good cocktails, nice atmosphere (both inside and outside). The only thing that is not so nice is that the tables are quit close one to the others. Apart from that, absolute top location.

    You don't get the choice to choose the seats, I had ordered the ENTRADAS MIXTAS (For 2 PEOPLE) platter where the prawns and chicken tasted salty, the sauces were not up to the expectations.. guacamole was disappointing. And they don't provide free chips like in other Joe Peña's..for the high cost not satisfied with the food. The ambience was good and the waiters were friendly.

    Favourite place for me and my colleagues quarterly team event. Great drinks, good food, would recommend the Buenos Aires steak that just melts. Staff are very friendly and nice. Feel always welcomed here.

  • 5/5 Chris R. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place for a meal. Food was tasty and hot. We went during the World Cup and that meant it was a little noisy. The match was displayed on a large screen above the bar so it's probably a permanent fixture. My biggest criticism was that it was smoky which surprised me. Apparently there is another room separate from the main bar area that is non-smoking, oh well, I'll know that for next time.

    Solid choice for some mexican Flair (or at least gow we in Europe thinkits like to eat in Mexico). Its a good place to socialize and the atmosphere is vibrant as the place is very well visited. The food is what you would expect without any surprises.

    Great food and atmosphere as usual although the service has been very slow recently. The staff are very friendly but it feels as though they do not have enough people.
