The guys at the bar and the waiting staff were prompt and attentive. The food was excellent and was well portioned especially for a late Sunday night. My only reason for 4 stars was how loud the music was in the bar area and the dining area near the bar was.

This restaurant has been around for a long time and I can tell why . It feels like a family run establishment warm and festively decorated for the holidays . The people inside are patient and kind , you can tell that they take pride in what they do. I ordered a lime margarita on the rocks and a chicken fajita salad. The margaritas come in several different flavors such as lime, peach , and watermelon. They're large and flavorful, while still being budget friendly. The Fajita salad was delicious. It had huge pieces of chicken, beans, lettuce and tomato all atop a tostada shell. This too, was budget friendly. I really enjoyed my time here. I can see myself visiting often .

My friends and I decided to come here for a late night drink. It was around 11 and they don't close until about 2. There were waves of people coming in and out. I would say it's more of an above 25+ style bar. You can control the music by paying on an app.The drink menu is small but they can make you anything you like! Which is great. I decided on a margarita blended and BOYY was it strong! Their chips and salsa are great.

I've been coming here since Santiago's was on H st. I gave the owner my business for a long time and have always brought him business. When they moved to this location I was ecstatic! It's so close to my job!Sooooo the girl with the glasses is the worst server in world! I've had her serve me plenty of times and she was always bad but Pancho, the brother of the owner, was always there picking up her slack so I never complained until today! She sucks and not in a good way! This instance, she never offered me chips and salsa or even took my order until Pancho told her to take my order! I ordered a modelo with a salted rim. She made it in front of me and forgot the salted rim claiming she doesn't know how! Like seriously, this girl is incompetent! So Pancho had to do it and she told her to put my order in which was shrimp cocktail. Then he left for a dentist appointment and left her and a new guy in charge. Big mistake! I should have walked out then and there. So I'm waiting, and two male customers walk in and she starts razzing the one guy (love interest, boyfriend? Idk) mind you that was 15 mins after I put my order in. She spends all of 10 mins giving the guy crap (flirting?) and there were other tables waiting... So now I've been there 30 minutes (on my lunch hour) and still no shrimp cocktail.. but the guy she was flirting with received their food which was a taco plate! So I say to the guy she was flirting with that maybe I need to come here more often to get faster service.. he's super uncomfortable. She is playing on her phone standing in front of him blah blah blah, I finally said, "is the cook almost done with my order cos I want it to go since it's been 30 mins?" She asks the cook and he tells her he hasn't made it. Makes me think she never put my order in. So I said cancel my order and close out my tab. So I ask the new guy what time does Santiago come in and he tells me. And in front of her I ask him when does she work, as I pointed to her and he said idk. So I pipe up and tell him that I never want to come in when she's there. He's begging me at this point to give them another chance. I don't know if I will but if I do I hope it's never when she's around. I don't know if she's a relative but this girl is lazy as sloth and worthless! I pray she changes her attitude cos it sucks! Typically lazy person of this generation.

Worst place to go to have a night date with your husband, we were looking for a nice place to go to and have some seafood. Leaving a side the atmosphere, the customer service was the WORST! After a long waiting time for our food it was finally delivered by the Dishwasher ? poor old guy having to serve us or food with out any condiments for the food, because obviously that's not his job and didn't know what to take us. Had to warm up our tortillas because the servers were too busy watching the girls dancing at the bar.

Change your hours on Google because they're are wrong if the business is closing earlier than what it says

Great bartender. Amazing drinks. Highly recommend. Especially the W** P**** (WAP). Santiago makes drinks that are splendid and delectable. Debating on trying? Just do it.
