El Sombrero Mexican Cuisine - Melbourne

Fair prices, great value, authentic Mexican food which can be hard to find in Central Florida.

I took my family to dinner today 5/08/24. We use to love this place. It seemed ok at first. My daughter who doesn't eat that much wanted to order the kids chicken strips but they said she was to old to. She's only 14 but they said 12 and under. The food came out and looked ok. A different server asked if we wanted refills on our drinks. Then asked if we wanted to go boxes. We asked for three. Filled them up. Then a different server came cleared our plates. Waited for 15 minutes for our check. Asked the server who took our plates if we can get our check. She asked if we were done. Of course we had no plates or food. She goes and tells our regular server we want our check. Comes back to tell us it's not ready yet. Finally brings it out. I was mad because we just wasted 20 minutes waiting on our check. Their were three other servers and only five tables. I don't know why we had to wait for so long. No one asked us if our food was good or anything. I will not be going back there.

Was looking for a new Mexican restaurant and took a look at the reviews. Interesting that the owner only replied to those rated 4 or 5 stars but never replied to any of the others. That should give anyone reason to pause.

I'm a very picky eater, and every time I've ordered take out, my order has been correct. The portions are large enough for multiple meals, and the food is always delicious. I wish y'all were closer to Indialantic <3

The first time we went there the food and service were awesome. We made a mistake by going back I guess because we had the nastiest waitress ever. She had this look on her face the whole time. We asked for more salsa and she muttered under her breath. Guess she thought we were only having appetizers lol. She never refilled our drinks, never brought a spoon for ice cream or checked on us. Anytime we needed something we had to get up and find someone else. Only time we saw her was when we had to ask someone else for the check. When we got the check she totally overcharged us. Wish we knew who our first waiter was, he was awesome. Unfortunately we probably won't be back after this. Getting dirty looks, zero service then overcharged is enough. Also, they had someone singing songs from the 50's which was a little strange for a Mexican restaurant. Didn't fit the theme at all.
