I have been to Noche twice and not been impressed either time, the only reason I returned for a second visit was because my children enjoy their chicken on the beach. The first visit, the server was unfriendly almost to the point of rudeness. Halfway through our dinner our sever changed and the second server was much more friendly. It took an hour to get our supper and when it finally came out 2 of the 5 orders were wrong, the did take $10 off of the bill for this error so that was appreciated. As I stated my children like their chicken on the beach, I enjoyed the street corn but the Al Pastor taco I had was grisly and was more like a jerky taco being very tough and I was unable to eat it but we had been there so long already as we had to wait for 2 of our dinners to be corrected that I didn’t want to send it back. The second time I went was for lunch with my daughter and the server this time was actually rude, my daughter once again enjoyed the chicken on the beach but the chips were so over cooked they were dark brown. I ordered the Truffle Yuca Fries and they were just awful, they were very stale and had no taste whatsoever. The sever came by after quite awhile and asked if things were ok and I told her that my dish was horrible and she asked if I wanted to order something else but I declined as that was all that I wanted on the menu. Then when she brought the check out (which she just tossed on the table as she walked by without a word to us) the fries, which I was unable to eat, were still on the check. I finally flagged her down and asked to have them removed from the check as they were inedible. She left and returned later, once again tossing the revised check on the table. At no point did the owner, who was on the premises and walked by our table 4 times, come over to apologize for the bad dish or ask how everything else was, which was astonishing to me for a new and local restaurant. I like to support our local businesses but I will not return here.

We had an excellent experience at Noche! We had the brisket, voodoo chicken and Ahi Tuna tacos, with the brisket being our absolute favorite!

Ahi Tuna Tostadas, Taquitos with best Spanish Rice ever, and dip sampler. All was very good. Clearly upscale Mexican with lots of seafood and meat options.

My best friend and I were so excited to try Noche, and it did not disappoint! The ambiance and overall vibe is hip yet inviting, the music is fun but not loud enough to cause interruptions to conversation. We both started with the La Fuego margaritas which were excellent (be sure to try the different flavors!) We ordered two appetizer dips- the street corn dip and the jalapeño ranch and both were excellent and the portion sizes more than enough for the two of us and then each ordered two tacos. The tacos themselves were delicious, but accompanied by the crispy shell when ordering the “Noche way” were perfect. I’m not sure how we managed it, but we ended with the fried tres leches cake which was incredible but nearly too big for us to finish. Overall amazing experience, this was an amazing girls night out and would be the perfect date night spot. Very excited for Evansville to have a more upscale Mexican spot! We will be back!

For the price of the food, it was subpar at best. The meat barely had any flavor and the tacos were doused in sauce that made everything soggy. The music was so loud you could barely hear yourself think. Not worth the money.

Overpriced drinks(price not listed on menu), bland Americanized tacos, slow service with several open tables, waitress walked past our table multiple times without asking how our food was….plus we got sat at an awful location right by the stairs when other tables were available…I’ll stick to los bravos where the food is authentic and the chips and salsa are free.

Waited just over an hour for food, and the really didn't seem busy. Over half the tables were empty. The menu is very small, it's pretty much just tacos. We got four tacos, the loaded fries which were supposed to have carne asada but it was maybe less than 2 oz of meat on there. Three out of the four tacos were pretty much cold, lots of topping but very little meat on anything. There is way too many good Mexican restaurants in Evansville to go back here. Also very expensive for what we got.

The restaurant is nice looking and new. Our server was a very kind, sweet lady. She was, unfortunately, apparently not as well trained as one would hope; for this I obviously do not fault her. My husband’s food came out about ten minutes after mine did… and, when it did, it was cold. Our server apologized, but it was a very casual apology that wasn’t quite befitting something this significant. After she dropped off the check we had to wait, once again, longer than normal to pay. We noticed that our server was bartending, so this explains that. If she is the only bartender on duty this certainly makes sense. That said, there were a large number of employees on staff that night—which was great—so I recommend that management institute a team-serving approach, especially in this case. This also could have help to avoid the food sitting so long, as another person could have brought out our entree or, at the least, alerted our server that it was ready. What is most frustrating is that no manager ever stopped by to check on us, to check on the kitchen (I.e our sitting food), or to offer an apology. We didn’t request to speak to the manager, as this is just not something I enjoy doing: nor did I want to give the impression that I wanted any free food. I do not desire that all. All I really want is an apology, and a guarantee that our next experience will be better than this one.

Excellent service and incredible food! Malaina was our server and she was excellent! We went after they had just opened and were impressed with how well she knew the menu and drink questions we had. The Noche margarita was the best I have ever had! The ahi tuna tostado is a must try!
