    Great experience, food was very good the chicken fajitas were excellent. Service was attentive yet not intrusive. For as busy as it was the noise level was never an issue to affect having a conversation. We highly recommend Mexican Sugar and will be back!

    We had a reservation for 2 for Valentines Day and at the last moment, some friends asked to join us. Not only did MS accommodate us, they gave us the coziest wraparound booth way back in the corner away from the bustle. It was perfect! Our waiter, Brian, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Brian was delightful. Each couple split the Seafood Paella and it was fantastic. The whole experience was amazing and highly recommended!

    We both ordered a cup of tortilla soup for $5. I always like to try a soup when I can. It was very tasty. I’m glad they offered it at that price for a nice single appetizer. My husband got the pollo Agave which was a breaded chicken breast with mushroom sauce, Chile mashed potatoes and a chayote slaw. I tasted the sauce and was surprised it was heavily laced with sherry wine. I don’t generally get steak but was intrigued by the New Mexico tampequenia with cheese enchiladas. The skirt steak was tasty but tough and chewy. I generally don’t order steak for this reason. It’s a difficult protein. The charro beans were excellent and now I know another preparation for chayote squash. This place has so many good choices but I wanted to try something different. I was sorry we didn’t share the Mucho Platillo. Best thing on the menu. Mi Dia doesn’t make Tex Mex. It’s completely different. Every dish is unexpected, delicious and beautifully prepared. I tried their margarita of the month made with cinnamon agave, tequila and pineapple. It was heavily smoked too, which I enjoyed. I liked the Riviera Maya better. We were too full for the Rocky Road ice cream but I highly recommend it.
