Charming
Great for brunch
Good for business meals

Xecora is not only our interpretation of gastronomy and mythology, but also our mixology which is inspired by the beauty of the colors, flavors, customs and ingredients of the Huichol culture, that's why we give our organic touch to our dishes and drinks, giving them the cultivation and care they deserve to end with a colorful and delicious product.

Food was goos but chairs a bit uncomfortable and music too loud as restaurant was near empty. Too loud for a weeknight dinner.

I wanted to like this place. My sister had a warm oyster shooter and almost immediately got sick. Oysters shouldn’t be warm unless they are cooked. The large shrimp were understandably previously frozen however…the way in which it was defrosted may have created a mushy meat. Defrosting under cold water would have been the way but I can tell it sat in lukewarm water for quite some time. The ceviche was underwhelming. All of it was very, very, underwhelming. I will not return. And I hope that whoever goes enjoys themselves and the food is cold and fresh.

Scallops and carne asade was not worth $50. The other dishes were just okay.

I made reservations for Mother’s Day around 1:30 pm. When me and my family showed up the waitress said that they book lots of reservations and lots of them showed up together. After telling her I had already made the reservation weeks ago she proceeded to tell me it would be a 45-50 min wait. So we ended up leaving. But terrible time management on there part.

It might have been due to the fact that it was May 10th, which is Mexican Mother's Day, but unfortunately, the service we received at the restaurant wasn't great. there were only two servers for the entire restaurant, they forgot to bring us our drinks and some of our food. Additionally, we were charged for items we didn't order, and there were some items that they didn't have available. All of this left us feeling disappointed with our experience.

Our server - I think it was Angel- was absolutely fantastic and we loved the food. My friend wanted to come back twice in a row it was so good. Delicious margaritas as well. We will be back many times for sure!
