Diego's Barrio Cantina - Middletown

Tucked away nicely around the corner from the cliff walk start the Pork Nachos were the best we ever had…… ever

I will say that our server was great and attentive but that’s where the compliments will end. The food was incredibly overpriced for the super small portion sizes. My husband ordered a quesadilla for $15 that was the size of a street taco shell that consisted of 4 bites of quesadilla, with a smear of guac and salsa as the only sides. My $15 burrito was half the size of a burrito you would get at any Mexican joint in the state and didn’t come with any sides to justify the price tag. The food was okay but definitely not that good for what we paid for. The people in the booth behind us were upset to find their chips stale, and when they asked for a side of queso, they were told that it wasn’t an option and they would have to buy the appetizer version for another $15. The table in front of us was complaining about the portion sizes as well, making a joke about not needing to go boxes since there wasn’t enough to put in them in the first place. It was honestly surreal to have so many people having a bad time at the same time.

There renditions to authentic dishes seemed to be americanizing the dish too much. Tasty but ! So my daughter and I advised the hostess that we wanted the bill for the table divided in half to us. She advised Steffany our waitress. My wife ordered the fajitas to share with me. the wait was pretty lengthy with 3 other two person tables and another with 6 people as was our 6. Steffany brought out the fajitas on 2 plates as ordered, but when we got the bill, she had charged us for 2 orders. Not $30 but $60! and the bill was all incorrect with her billing my daughter $50 and me $50! everyone else got charged the balance??? 50/50 not $50 was what we coordinated before we sat down. Staff was very pleasent and courteous. We'd been there so long, we didn't want to prolong it anymore with challenging the bills. Definitely acommunication understanding and kitchen challenge.

Portion size was WAY too small for what they were charging. A quesadilla was literally 4 small pieces that could have been an appetizer for one person. The food tasted good, but $5 for meh chips and watery salsa. After 2 drinks we were literally planning where we were going to eat next to be full.

Went there last monday the Food overall.... honestly just dont bother shouldve went to chipotle, very bland, the salsa was good and the bluefin dip was amazing though... but what really drove me away from NEVER coming back was the fact the waitress seemed bothered and offended most of the time when we needed her... we didn 't get it least greeted for it least 10 minutes and it was pretty slow... what really got me upset was my frozen margarita... I honestly believed that I had the wrong drink! It was that liquidy, the viscosity was visably wrong so I didn 't wanna touch it because it didn 't look right but when confronted if it was correct she defended the drink SHE made, saying because of the shot in there you it won 't be frozen anymore I told her: I 've never had to this but, I am sorry but I 'm not drinking that then it 's clearly not frozen can you put more ice in it? She took it back and less then a minute later I can clearly hear her say from the bar: he 's making me remake it. It wasnt made right it wasnt rudely said but again she looked so bothered by us... she came back with a new drink looking fantastic almost took a selfie with it it was that beautiful! but I asked for boxes right away cuz I was so uncomfortable being there at that point and didnt want to not deal with her anymore, we were practically done anyways
