What Emmalee Robel doesn't like about El Pocho Antojitos Bar:
Service was terrible, arrived at 717 for our 715 reservation. Wasn’t acknowledged for 20 minutes, waited For over 30 minutes for our table. Took the server over 10 minutes to clear the table. My daughters tacos didn’t arrive, and the waitress told us they had run out of fish, non apologetic after waiting almost an hour from being seated for our meal. No attempts to make it better, will not return anytime soon. Disapp... View all feedback. What Rebeca likes about El Pocho Antojitos Bar:

Never had a bad experience here. Food is delicious and safe.

This restaurant has received mixed reviews, with some diners complaining about poor service and long wait times, while others praised the friendly staff and delicious gluten-free food. Despite some inconsistencies in service, many customers appreciated the authenticity and quality of the Mexican cuisine, particularly the tacos and churros. The restaurant's commitment to being gluten-free was a major draw for many, as was the creative menu and homemade sodas. While some felt portions were small and service could be slow, others were impressed by the overall experience and would highly recommend the restaurant. In conclusion, this spot seems to have its strengths and weaknesses, making it worth a visit for those looking for a gluten-free dining option with tasty Mexican fare.

Great food, great drinks. Not sure if it’s a 1:1 comparison but it blows La Carnita out of the water.
