Reviews for Mexican Radio Schenectady in Schenectady, NY
Okay so this is going to be a long post. This is one of my favorite places to eat. Food is amazing. Building is really cool.... This is the part where my review goes down hill though. Food always gets a high score. Low stars because this cost a lot ofmoney to book just to have your entire plan changed day of with no notice. My wife and I had been working with this company tohost our wedding rehearsal dinner/ after party. The food was still great but the the agreement we had to use a specific locationw there venue was not followed. Unfortunately we didn?t have the specific room in our contract. We learned when our party of35-40 started arriving at the location that they had change our locations around without telling us. This is going to seemtrivial to most people reading this but we literally Booked this location only because of the space we agreed to rent.Otherwise this wouldn?t have been the venue we picked. We we given two reasons for the issue. Reason one the room was designedfor 35 people and our party of 37 wouldn?t fit. So this bothers me a lot. If our group wouldn?t fit tonight why wouldn?t youhave been able to tell us that 6 months ago?????your capacity just changed? Secondly the heat broke. Can?t control that I getit. But the heat out front is an oven. My guests are dying and going outside to cool off. So if you skip my long winded rantand take only one lesson away from this let it be this If your ever thinking of booking an event here for a large group and wanta very specific spot in the massive restaurant , literally get it in writing in your contract so they can be held accountablefor changing someone?s plan the day of the event that has been in the works with them for 8 months. I?ve actually got one morething while I?m at it. Left the private upstairs party we booked to go to the main bar by the front entrance that can make thestores full drink menu( the bar upstairs couldnt) I stood at the counter with 2 other family members for over t Read more
I really want to love this place given how frequently I?m in Schenectady, but I will not be back. Visited several years ago,... probably 2018, before its temporary shutdown due to the pandemic and had a less than stellar experience. Poor service made for adisappointing dining experience. Unsure if management had changed with the re-open, I decided to give them a try again thispast weekend. The experience was just meh. The service was fine. Menu and drink prices were absolutely eye-opening wild. While Iappreciate the array of vegetarian and vegan options, my tofu fajita was ridiculously over seasoned with salt. Interior of thespace is stunningly beautiful. This is also the only Mexican restaurant I?ve been to that doesn?t seat you down withcomplimentary chips and house salsa? you guessed it, you pay for that, too. Read more
Randomly passing through Schenectady and found this place. It was great! Huge menu, huge portions, huge space. There was a... wedding (I think?) taking place when we were there - what a hoot! Food was fantastic. Came out quick. Didn't get drinks becausewe were looking at $13-$14 margaritas... This place doesn't have the vibes to charge that much for a drink. Service was fine.We had like four different wait staff but it didn't really matter. Recommend. Read more
Very good Mexican Food. It's kinda tucked back near the train and I had to turn around to find it. Place was beautifully... decorated inside. Staff were friendly honest and prompt. Read more
Vegan & vegetarians rejoice!! They have a full vegetarian menu with a large number of vegan options. Food was really good -- but... everything is made to a mild palate so be sure to ask for spicy!! Patio was vibe was casual and on the quiet side. Read more
6/2022 update. The food we ordered was excellent. Each meal is about $20 per plate, serving size is a good portion. Service... is iffy. Mentioned that the coca cola was watery and so they came back later and said it was fixed but no offer to replace thewatery ones they gave us. This place can do meat or meatless options. Read more
What a great place! It?s huge and the food and drinks are good. We got a radio roll up to start and we got the small one, it?s... kind of a burrito, I was expecting some taquitos but it was good and then we got guac, margs and some incredible enchiladassuizas. Our server was the only one working it looked like but she was so sweet and everyone was really nice. Read more
The food was good. Some of the items we wanted to order from the menu they did not have. Service was slow and could have been... better. Seems like this place is struggling. Read more
