La Tablita is my go-to place for Mexican food in Dubai. The venue is spacious with vibrant and sublime decor. The Mexican food is authentic, flavorful and utterly delicious. And the drinks pack a perfect punch. Today we tried their breakfast menu that is available on Saturdays and it was amazing. Priced AED 55 it includes a wholesome Mexican breakfast dish along with coffee or tea or juice. Mexican bread basket is also provided. Very good value breakfast and the portion size was great.

Went there to celebrate a birthday. Just disappointing. We had to hide at an angle because the smoking area is in the middle of the mall and there is smoke everywhere. Staff are not attentive to say the least. They messed up my order. Over priced food, zero quantity zero quality. It was a horrible experience. Never going there again and will not recommend this place. Even the table next to us had angry quests.

FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM @Tan_taz for moreOur recent tasting at La Tablita was a lovely one. We were invited to preview the 2 week taco festival at the restaurant and man, was it awesome or what! There were a variety of new flavors including duck, pork, lamb and more. If youโ€™ve attended their taco tuesdays (love this too) youโ€™ll already know about how amazing their food is, however this taco festival had new taco, chimichanga flavors on offer. As always we ended the meal with their impeccable Tres Leches & Churros.Always a treat!

This place is absolutely fantastic, authentic and has that Native Mexican Vibes. Taco Tuesdays are highly recommended. So nice to be served by a Mexican team in a Mexican restaurant in Dubai. They are very child friendly too.Special thanks to Cindel and Carolina as both of them were checking with all the customers and made sure everyone was satisfied and happy with the food and service. Job well done by both of them.La Tablita is now my go-to place for Mexican food in Dubai. The venue is spacious with vibrant and sublime decor. The Mexican food is authentic, flavorful and utterly delicious. And the drinks pack a perfect punch. We tried Tacos Tuesday which had a whole world of all sumptuous Mexican dishes and drinks. Very good value meal and we tried many vegetarian dishes which were specially crafted to meet our needs.In Starters we had Veg Nachos with Cactus Salad which was an authentic Mexican salad and tasted just amazing.We also tried The Lemon Margarita and Virgin Margarita.And in the mains we tried the Vegetarian Quesadillas, Vegan Fajitas , Veg Enchiladas which were served with soft and warmTortilla.The show stopper was the super moist and mouth melting Tres Leches Cake and warm churros which was served with chocolate sauce.All in all a perfect place to enjoy authentic Mexican food in Dubai with superb hospitality from their staff.

I was looking forward to this Mexican restaurant, having had someone tell me of a good experience they had had previously (couple of years ago). Things didnt start well when we were placed under one of the LOUD speakers. I dont mind background music in a restaurant, but the levels were such that I couldnt actually hear my partner just across the table. We moved ourselves to the next available table, which although a little quieter, was under the air-conditioning. I asked 3 times if they could turn the volume down a little, before anything was done. Having ordered a starter to share, it took some time to get one of the waiters (there were 5 I counted) attention to order drinks and main. The starter arrived, but the drinks did not, until wed nearly finished our starter, which was fairly average plate of nachos. The mains arrived just as we finished our starter. I had the fajitas, which were fairly bland. I dont think the chicken had been marinated in any way and as usual there were not enough flour tortillas for the amount of chicken etc. By this point we had decided we wanted to finish as quickly as possible to leave. After our plates were cleared, it was another 20 minutes until we managed to get the attention of the staff to request the bill. They all seemed to have disappeared, leaving one chap that was only there to clear tables. We will not return and certainly wouldnt be recommending it to anyone.

My friend and I were at La Tablita for Friday brunch. Great service and very friendly staff but the food and drinks didnt meet our expectations. The margarita was too sour, ceviche was fishy and tacos were rather blend. But the interior is nice and they also had live music. I would have given easily 4 stars if the good quality was a bit better.

4 of us went for taco tuesday.(used a promotion card)All the staff was welcoming, friendly and attentive checking on our table frequently.Wed like to thank Jesus especially who was informative about menus explaining us about the ingredients of the food and other promotions on different days of the week, etc.7 different kinds of tacos were served and 3 of them were kept ordered several times more since we loved them.(veg, fried shrimp, fried baby sweetcorn)Additionally we ordered churros and tres leches cake that both were excellent for sweet ending.Definitely coming back to try Drunch on friday and breakfast on saturdays.

We booked for Friday drunch at 4 pm and we reached there at 0355pm. We waited for 10 mins and then the waiter came and told u to order from the menu as the drunch will be closed after 15 mins! Which would be 0420pm not 5 pm! We told her we want to go for the drunch. The food took another 10 mins to be served . The food tasted really good but honestly the service was really bad! We got our desserts which was only 1 plate of churros and 2 pieces of cake for 4 people! Then when we asked for more she said that the kitchen is closed!! And then after we complained she got us an extra plate of churros and the cakes never came!! Then again after 15 mins we asked the waiter and finally they served us desserts.Extremely disappointed with the service!

Guys this place is bussin! Just first of all, the music and the staff here are amazing. Theres like proper Mexican/Spanish dance music playing the whole time and its such a vibe. The staff are all Mexicans too, and theyre so crazy sweet. Now the food, well we did the unlimited taco Tuesdays, and the shrimp taco and the chicken taco were both real delicious. The other two beef tacos were okay, and the veg tacos were decent as well. The main issue was the tortilla; its a soft shell taco, and the tortilla was a little doughy and dry in the mouth. Plus the beef tacos werent exactly bursting with juiciness either. The table chips (nachos) were awesome so were their 3 dips/sauces. But the best came last, when we figured wed order a dessert and got the Tres Leches vanilla sponge cake. What a revelation! Such a beautiful looking, absolutely yumm creation. That jalapeno ice cream might actually be vanilla ice cream with candied jalapeno shavings on it. Regardless, that cake was the highlight of my week and Im definitely going back here at some point for the ambience and that Tres Leches cake ๐Ÿ˜Wouldve given em 5 stars if the beef tacos werent so dry ๐Ÿ˜ขPics: beef flank & chorizo taco (L), shrimp taco (R), and the amazing Tres Leches.

I was there for Friday drunch soft drinks package. Staff introduced the food menu but didnโ€™t offer the drinks menu so we had no idea what mocktails we can order. Had classic virgin margarita and we didnโ€™t like it. The starters are fine. Guacamole tastes good. Main course quesadilla and fajitas are rather normal. I was expecting something more. I ended up enjoying sour cream more than the food. When we finished the main. Staff asked if we Ike the chef special chiles en nogada. Well itโ€™s a bit late isnโ€™t it. Ordered both desserts they are highlights of the day. Wanted to have more but staffs were overwhelmed by other demanding guests I supposed. No one would love to give us eye contact for a while that we ran out of food on the table. Ran out of water.

After craving some decent Mexican food, I recently had a meal at Maria Bonita in Umm Sequiem for the first time in about 10 years. It is supposedly โ€˜the best Mexican in Dubai.โ€™ 10 or 15 years ago I might have agreed with that statement but, I must say, I was incredibly disappointed. The food was not just terrible, greasy, sickly and disappointing, it left me completely without having satisfied my Mexican craving! While vowing never to return to Maria Bonita again, a few days later I decided to have a meal at La Tablita to fulfill my craving. What a great choice that was! Fantastically tasty food, friendly service, and great atmosphere. The tacos are fabulous, and the Chicken Molcajetes is to die for! Plus you can actually have a margherita (or three!) with your meal, unlike Maria Bonita which doesnโ€™t even serve alcohol. La Tablita has found a new โ€˜regularโ€™ in me. I will certainly be coming back regularly, and I just canโ€™t wait to try other items on the menu! I would say La Tablita is actually the best Mexican in Dubai!!

We came here after reading all the great reviews on Google but weโ€™re not impressed by either the service nor the food quality. Upon sitting down we said we wanted to have taco night (Tuesday) but there was no menu (not even the QR code pamphlet) and no introduction from the waiter as to what the choices were. It was our first time in the restaurant and were therefore immensely confused as to what we could expect to be served. The frozen margarita I ordered came first as a regular margarita. I sent it back and asked for frozen one, but what came back was still a watery margarita definitely not the thick, slushy kind we would usually call frozen. We had to ask for salsa instead of having them brought to the table along with the tacos. Basically the waiter was just a courier between the kitchen and the table without any additional interaction or purpose. The tacos were ok at best, would have been better if someone told us what each variety was really. Not sure what the hype is on Google but it was certainly nothing to revisit again.

Im giving them 1 star as we didnt have good experience here. We went with couple of friends to have dinner. The lady at the entrance took us inside to be seated. We were seating there for more than 15 min no one came up to us for giving menu or any of our server. My daughter was very thirsty and Im constantly looking for someone to assist us. I was surprised how the people working there were walking with their head down stuck to ground and not paying any attention to someone calling. Then finally I went called the lady at the entrance to send someone to help us. She then sent someone to us. We told her we want water first and we order martinis for us and apple juice for my daughter. She went, she came after some time with the drink and not water. I again reminded to her please get some water and we gave her our food order. Finally yeee we got some water. Then after some time we wanted to repeat few items as the portion sizes is amazingly small. I guess its just for u to c and not eat. We again started to look for our server waving our hand but no one is hardly concerned. Finally One server went to one table in front of us and they people out there told the her that can u help them pointing to us that they need something. Ridiculously funny. So all in all I dont think so Im ever going to them again. Food is nothing outstanding same Mexican stuff. I feel experience matters most which we had was pathetic. Hospitality points big zero. Hyatt standards it was a shame. I guess they should work on it.

Absolutely pathetic service, servers do not glance in your general direction even if youโ€™re literally stood across them, waving to get attention. The ladies were far too busy cleaning unoccupied tables and disappearing into the kitchen for endless periods of time, rather than looking to serve waiting customers. Average and rather forgettable food at least from what we ordered, where 0 recommendations were made-no one could care less. And after another long and exhausting wait to simply pay the bill, we hit the nearest exit and vowed never to come back. It is beyond my understanding how this restaurant ever won awards back in the day. Dubai has far too many wonderful dining experiences to ever bother wasting time on excuses for hospitality like La Tablita.

I have been a Mexican Cuisine Fan for ages now.This place serves the best Mexican food across Dubai.The venue has a vibrant decor. The menu options are authentic and flavorful.Since the chef and the serving staff are Mexican, they will help you with the must try dishes from the menu. Cindel Rodrigues was super in hosting us at restaurant. She recommended us to have the Empanadas con queso ( her favorite too) filled with fried cheese and guacamole ๐Ÿฅ‘Delicious chicken pastor quesadilla and the taco pescado - crispy fish rolled in a taco with some red onion an and guacamole.Since no dinner ends without a dessert, we ordered the very famous Tres Leches Cake which was out of the world.Food portions were also good for the price. Definitely making another visit soon too try their weekend Mexican breakfast just for the price at AED 55

A lovely set-up on a terrace outdoors serving drunch on Friday. The team was really warm and friendly. The cocktails were powerful, on point. None of the dishes were labelled so it was a bit of a guessing game. Food is quite limited in choice, quality was fine, but some of the meats were dry which made choices even more limited. Food orders at times got mixed up which I think was because there were no table numbers. For the price you pay, the food choices were just not worth it for me. The highlights for me were the guacamole, baked salmon and crispy chorros.

We were invited for the food review to La Tablita for dinner & initially it wasnโ€™t too crowded, but as the time passes it became crowded. This shows that people in Dubai really are fond of Mexican food. It has a Lively and colorful ambiance. They play Latin songs and we were relaxed and in the mood for a good time.We were greeted by Mariana... with a sweet smile, & then by Florencia, who helped us in choosing our menu.... very friendly & helpful.Main food highlights in this restaurant are the tacos, molcajete (main course) and tres leches (dessert). We were served several dishes fromThe menu .... some of them were ....1- Tiradito de aguacate - a starter with a mix of avocado, cucumber, olive oil caviar.2- Nachos with three different dips3- Tacos- six assorted tacos4- guacamole- traditional5- Enchiladas verdes- Chicken, green tomato sauce with melted cheese6- Molcajete- Beef tenderloin, king prawns, chorizo, cactus with morita chili salsa7- Cordero- Lamb chops8- Pollo- grilled half chicken with steamed vegetablesWe For the drinks, they had a variety mocktails, which were very refreshing. I donโ€™t remember the name though. ๐Ÿ˜From the desserts we choose out all time favorite Churros - super delicious &Tres Leches- vanilla sponge cake with jalapeรฑo ice cream.Staff are mostly from Mexico and we got to chat with them.

We enjoyed it a lot.Thanks for hosting us.

My review is about the Brunch and is the result of too many negatives and not enough positive aspects:- as a set menu brunch, they do not have enough people serving the tables which leads to a very slow service. Even the Chef could be seen waitering;- limited non-alcoholic drink choices, with 3 horrible mocktails out of a list of 4;- no nachos on a Mexican themed brunch?!?!- beef tacos were absolutely dry;- only two deserts;- limited selection of starters with a fish ceviche that wasnt really a ceviche;- main pork sabdwich was a total let down, two pieces of bread, some dry pork meat in the middle, and a jalapeno sauce that wasnt a real sauce, just a way for you not to feel the lack of flavour;+ amazing fish tacos;+ very good guacamole;+ good tres leches cake;And this is why I wouldnt recommend this brunch.

My worst birthday in 37 years! and I owe it all to La Tablita. I give it a star for the food being decent Mexican but the service makes you wish you never came across this name at all. The restaurant was devoid of any crowd, 4 to 5 tables at the most. From the moment I was shown to my table, our group was forgotten or maybe all 8 of us were invisible. It was seriously hard to tell the difference. 20 minutes and no one bothered to take a drink order until we called out. No one cared that we came to eat. We had to resort to shouting across the room that it would be nice to have someone take our order. Each time waiting a ridiculous amount of time and this continues through the night. Our 2nd request for chips and we are told that an (empty restaurant) ran out of chips. Finally the food comes before the chips and the staff is in a hurry to dump the food on our table and run off. I was told how to make a fajita in 5 seconds. Not that I needed it but if you are going to talk, make some effort. Finished eating and again have to wait to spot the staff just so we can get the bill. And to top it all off, my group spoke to 3 people when making the booking over 8 hours in advance that we wanted a small cake to be arranged. Promises were made not to worry about anything. After reaching, a reminder was given to the staff. The cake never came and we are told that the kitchen has closed after seeing another table getting a cake. So thanks for nothing La Tablita and I would strongly suggest picking any random restaurant for a better experience especially on an important night.

Loved the food, only thing is the portion. Like its so small that we need to order 2 portion of each dish for one guy. We have average appetite. Ambience is 5 out of 5, cozy and shaddy where we can spend time peacefully. Service is kind a 3 out of 5. Staff is courteous but delay in getting stuffs like spicy sauce or something, especially where we are middle of the eating our meal. As portion is small, it finish before they get the extra sauces for us.The tase of food is good but as usual restaurants in 5* hotels of dubai serves always blend or less spicy food. Even though its maxican. Otherwise food is good if you add spicy sauce, salt and pepper in it.

Nice Mexican food with original setup and brilliant decorations.Everything was fantastic when we tried the set menu they offer for half/fullboard guests.I gave it 4 stars, as the dessert took very long to arrive, though one dish was ready and the other was chorros.

Great food but probably the WORST service Ive ever seen in a restaurant. We arrived at 9.30pm. The table was with previous clineta leftovera Took them 15m and 3 calls from us to clean the table and got us seated. 9.45pm we were seated. Food takes eternity to come. Sevice came and the rest took about 35m after the seviche. We would order drinks and wait wait wait...Call the waiters and they really dont care. Its now 11.30 and my friends fajitas just arrived. 1.30 after being seated. Its a complete disgrace.

Definitely looking forward to my third time at La Tablita! I recently visited La Tablita and tried the quesadillas + the selection of house beverages. To my surprise a Mariachi band sang me a sweet birthday song. I appreciate the hospitality! Thank you, guys!

Taco is a bit creepy and soggy. Well decoration and looking good but not tasty. Ceviches is recommended. Perfect taste combined with sour. Guacamole is also good to try. Well mixed and blended. Fresh octopus for Pulpo. Nice plates for serving. Service is good and friendly. If you are not familiar with the food, they are welcome to introducing and explaining.

I had a lovely experience with the restaurant. Its cozy and inviting. Food is good and drinks are refreshing. However, I feel that the place is dark and lack of lighting. I dont see the serving is generous. I can say that food are more of pica food. Overall experience is ok.

A great atmosphere with calm vibes at the beginning then great music and fun karaoke at night! The food is top notch and the staff (Juan and Mariana) are fun and attentive. Its one of the rare Mexican restaurants that actually has Mexican staff, and theyre really helpful when it comes to food selection.

Had friends visiting dubai and were eager to take them to la tablita as we had a beautiful souvenir of the place. Catastrophic!!! the menu has changed and so did the ingredients. Either the chef has changed or he doesnt care anymore about what comes out of the kitchen.-seabass ceviche - some smashed fish in a dark soup, taste wise... lets not even go there.-tuna ceviche - close your eyes and you have no idea whats your eating.-octopus ceviche - as bad as the seabass and i suspect it was the same base too, well tasted the same.-beef fajitas - ahhh the big plate of ognions and with rock hard meat. we still wonder where did the peppers go?-tinga quesadillas - i dont know why we were given cuttlery, we could break the quessadilas with our hands it was that hard. as for what was inside... still a mistery to us... could have been chicken, duck or god knows what.-chapenga quesadillas - i stopped there, i didnt have the heart to challenge how solid my teeth were. i left my friends to try it.on a positive side, the service was great. the lady taking care of us was very nice and helpful. churos were amazing and so were the stella beers.All in all, we left with a sour taste and bill. we will not come back to la tablita sadly. the kitchen has changed, menu did too and that reflects on the food that comes out of it.see you never la tablita, what a pitty!

I went for the tacos buffet, one common strategy is having the food slightly salty to motivate drinking, but when it is more than slightly you ended up without enjoying the real flavor. They have a good selection of garnitures like Mole and Barbara but too salty, please improve this point, Our Mexican Cuisine is the best we have a responsibility to keep it in a high standard. The Agua de Horchata ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘. Finally the Chile habanero sauce was not picosa. The first time I went I had a very good impression this is why I want back. So keep up the bar, you can do it. By the way the music was perfect ๐Ÿ’ฏ, the bemol the availability of the waitresses to get more tacos.
