We were served by Rachel T. out on the patio, she was absolutely amazing. Perfect timing during our entire visit. The staff was friendly and from beverages to the food, everything was amazing. I dine here frequently and this was by far my best experience.

Great place to eat around riverfront. Though service is very slow, food is good. Their margaritas are well priced and their food is not over expensive. They have some great outdoor seating, perfect for the fall weather. Some food is better than others, but I highly recommend getting the guacamole and their tacos.

Inconsistent experience our last two visits. My order was wrong and took a while to remake. Nothing was offered for the wait while everyone around me nearly finished dinner. The restaurant was hot and noisy. Our server was very pleasant but we waited for quite a while for extra chips and water. You pay digitally at the table as the server brings you a mobile machine. There’s no itemized receipt so you can’t even confirm what you are paying for.

Food is absolutely phenomenal. We tried several of the tacos, including the prime rib, mahi, octopus onesMexican corn is delicious. Issue had was our server. He did have a table outside. We were sat inside and he took our order and disappeared. we didn't see him for 25 minutes and then we got our entrees and appetizer at the same time. We had to ask for silverware Never even asked us if we needed another round of drinks until we got the bill. We had to actually flagged someone down twice to get a boxes and then pay. We were gonna get dessert, but after waiting so long, we just wanted to get out of there, we were there for almost an hour and a half already with just two of He basically just dropped off our silverware and the bill we had to both ask for. We still left a 17% tip, we are hoping that they pool tips there.

We sat on the patio, which was nice and quiet (it can get pretty loud inside). Food was great, Jackson, our server, was very attentive and friendly. An enjoyable meal!

We were in Wilmington for a Craft Show and decided to have dinner before the long ride home. Del Pez Mexican sounded good. The food was good but not what we expected. It was fine but the flavors were milder. Food was prepped very well, taste mild!
