Besito - Reservar una mesa

Went to Besito for brunch during my birthday weekend. They were very accommodating when making the reservation. Originally, I had about 15 people and they offered a private room with no additional cost or need to do a prix fixe. The restaurant is spacious. The day of the number reduced to 8 people and they had a large table for us in the general dining area. It was a Sunday and they had a 2 for 1 margarita special. A friend and I ordered the mango margarita that we both didn't really like. It did not taste like a typical mango margarita. My cousins ordered a frozen margarita that they enjoyed. I switched to the watermelon margarita after which I enjoyed. It was very refreshing. I liked that you were able to switch to a different one for your second one and weren't obligated to order the same exact one. We started off with the guacamole to share. It was pretty disappointing for a Mexican restaurant. We all joked that it felt like the person making it got distracted and forgot to finish it. It was missing salt and lime, but we're easy going so we just asked for some and jazzed it up ourselves at the table. The chips also came with salsa which was good. For our entrees, most of us ordered their iron skillets tacos. I got the mixtos which had Grilled skirt steak, chorizo, chicken, queso Chihuahua served with a nopales salad and corn tortillas. The tacos came with rice and beans for the table, but it was not a big portion considering how many people we had, but again we made it work. One of my cousins orderd the salmon salad with pistachio crusted salmon, mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, roasted corn, avocado, queso fresco, chipotle cream dressing. It's one of the best looking salads I've seen and I am not a big salad fan. Her husband got the filete de res, filet mignon which came with a side of plantains with queso fresco. He was tearing his food up so apparently it was good. My other cousin got the arrachera, grilled skirt steak with an arugula salad that could not be subbed which he was disappointed about, because like me, not a big salad fan. The steak was a good portion though so he enjoyed his meal and we let him have most of the rice and beans. They came out with a tres leches cake for my birthday which I ate by myself. It was good. Overall, the meal was enjoyable. The portion sizes are decent. Enough to keep you satisfied. The prices are a little high for Mexican food, but for the neighborhood it's to be expected. The servers were attentive and it was a good dining experience. I'd go back again.

Great food and affordable prices. First time I went to this restaurant and I must say that the food was very tasty. You have to try the special tacos and quesadilla. The avocado mixture and the chips were a great combo as well. The ambient is cozy, with nice music in the background that creates a relaxing atmosphere. The service was fast and very attentive. The restrooms need more attention though, it would be nice if they'd put some hand paper tissues. Overall, I liked the food and the cocktails here, I'll come back again.

I like this place alot. It really had a nice decor and cool atmosphere. I was greeted by a very friendly manager named Dom. Our server Jessica was personable, helpful and fantastic. I really enjoyed the soft shell crab appetizer as well as my sea bass. The Margherita was a bit tart, so I had to add some extra agave. Once again, it didn't stop me from having a second one.....However, they had a great drink selection to choose from, especially tequila! I would definitely come back. Definitely a winner!

Was there to celebrate graduation and a birthday. Made reservation on open table. Service from Darwin was excellent!! Everything was delicious. One caveat..frozen drinks are very small. Not sure why they charge 15$ For a frozen margarita and then serve it in a whisky glass? Óverall expensive but very delicious and presentación was beautiful

Sorry I took the photo too late. The food was A1. I had the jumbo shrimp with boniato and my friend had the skirt steak. Not a single complaint. Our waiter Miguel knew his stuff and his description of the food was perfect. We left no crumbs. Great service for a pop up visit on Mother’s Day no less.
