It’s rare finding to get 2stars from me, however here we are. So I have read nice reviews and tried to visit, to the record I love Mexican food. Food was good I have nothing to say, but it took 58 minutes since order🤪 to get nacos. And another 30+ minutes to get tacos. ah yes, the girl forgot one dish from three 😂😅 so we did not have options to try all. The menu is quite limited, see on photos. They have only 2 options of beer - corona and horrible Sol. Both were quite warm, but they inform in advance and try to push order Sangria. Interior inside is nice, they offer to make pics in Sorbreros! Outside it’s normal terrace. So the main unti-treasure it’s service. Long and unprofessional. The guy speaks English quite well and made jokes around with tables, but to wait 2 hours for a liiittle food it was too much. Food is 4, drinks 1, service 0, total is 2. Recommend in case you are not hungry and have a loooot of free time to enjoy the life Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €20–25

Cute little spot with a good atmosphere and awesome staff. It has been hard to find places in this city that can accommodate vegans and vegetarians but Clandestino went above and beyond to do just that. Delicious food, drinks, and awesome service.

I don't normally write bad reviews.. If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all, you know. However, I'm going to make an exception here. We thought Mexican food sounded good and were happy to see a restaurant in town with that description. Well, I don't know what it was but it was not Mexican food. There was no beans, no rice (staples of the Mexican diet), they did not know what salsa is, for pity sake. And just because you wrap something in a tortilla, it does not make it Mexican. The burrito consisted of chicken, shredded lettuce and some sour cream sauce...no spices at all. I won't even get into our waiting over an hour and the fact that they brought my food a half an hour before my partner's. A very unpleasant experience over all. You've been warned.

Delightful experience - once we discovered it. Double doors have an etched skull, but there is no protruding sign. Once inside, we enjoyed an intimate, cozy atmosphere with delicious food. Great nachos and wings, and signature burritos and drinks. A friend said it was the best margarita she’d ever had. The iced coffee liquer was just the right amount of sweetness. We will definitely return!

Pam and I enjoyed a wonderful lunch with several good friends and this lovely little hidden gem. Purists are never quite pleased, but I for one found the Full Nachos to be fantastic! A great place to visit prior to a matinee show at the nearby Cineplace! Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

We did lunch at Clandestino's with friends. We enjoyed the atmosphere and decor. From a vegan perspective, the food was pretty good but there was very little to choose from. We were also hoping for Mexican or Tex-mex food and didn't find either here. Perhaps, because we lived in Mexico and California and know authentic mexican food, it tainted our experience here.

Sorry, but the reviews are a bizarre mix, so I have to speak up. If you actually KNOW Mexican food, this is not it. "Nacho-cheese" is not cheese. They make their tortillas (flour). Quoting the chef "It's our interpretation of Mexican food". The locals like it because tyhe food is WELL PREPARED, just not Mexican. Mexican-like, is closer.
