Enjoyed our experience at Tito Bandito's. There is convenient parking in the lot across the street and it was not busy on an early Thursday evening. Thoroughly enjoyed summer special black cherry bourbon margarita. The grilled watermelon was just okay for us, but it was nice to have another seasonal special. The chips and salsa were tasty. I had the flank steak with goat cheese, lettuce, and spicy blueberry salsa, very flavorful and the best part of my meal. The rice and beans were okay, better with salsa on them. Staff was friendly and prompt.
Was just traveling through and needed dinner. Thankfully they took our takeaway order. Me: chicken tacos with salad. Him: fish tacos with rice and beans.
Oh my gosh, this place is out of the world! The speciality margaritas were divine and the food so yum yum! We loved the upscale spin on Mexican cuisine. So freaking good, we ordered extra to-go. Thank you for sharing your unique restaurant with us.
We ordered some today’s special (quiche) and chicken taco. While the former was delicious, the latter was a bit bland. But luckily the hot sauce helped. We also ordered tres leches, which was the highlight of the visit. Cocktail and mocktail were good. Service was good, music was on the loud side, price wasn’t that much different from NYC. Overall good experience.
The food was absolutely delicious and staff was friendly/attentive. The Elderberry & Pear margarita and the Plum & Rosemary margarita were amazing! The braised short rib tacos with peach salsa were incredible and to top it off, the homemade blueberry lemon tres leches was wow! Love the use of what's in season/local.
Was just traveling through and needed dinner. Food was amazing!! Service was fantastic! Highly recommend the maple siracha tacos! They have an outdoor patio as well!!
Really good Mexican food. Huge and flavorful chimichongas and the steak and shrimp also excellent. Nicely decorated. Friendly and attentive staff. The gem of Pine Hill.
Great little restaurant! We found it by accident while driving around the Catskills. Atmosphere and food are awesome and fun. We'll be back next time we're out for a cruise. Update after a few more stops over the year. Still awesome! Great service and food! A must if in the area! Always have a great experience.
