We decided to come here as a party of 4 on a Friday evening, entertaining our friends with some Mexican food they don't normally get at home overseas. Knowing it was Friday, we were able to get a reservation in at a pretty early time at 6:30pm. This came in handy as we were here at the restaurant for just over 2 hours, which was mostly by choice, but a luxury worth having. The place itself is not too large. There are tables indoors and a decent amount outdoors. The indoor seating is split between high tables and regular tables. I originally chose a low table, but as it was next to the bathroom, we opted to swap it for a high table instead. Smart choice. For starters, we decided to go for the guacamole + salsa combo. Our waiter was nice enough to swap the traditional guac with the spicy pineapple guac. Smart choice as the spicy pineapple guac had a dope taste to it. However, we truly enjoyed the variety of salsas as they had different levels of kicks to complement the taste palettes. Also, the chips were plentiful too and we were able to get extras as we had a ton of salsa to get through. Also, as a party of 4, it made the most economical sense to split a pitcher of margarita as it allowed us to get the best bang for our buck. I think it amounted to around 6 glasses for the 4 of us. We went with the signature Anejo margarita with the spicy salt, which was quite refreshing. As for dinner, my girl and the other couple split 2 non-vegetarian tacos, which turned out to be plenty. I opted for the enchiladas verde with veggies. This was really good and it wasn't too heavy. All in all - very solid meal and a fun dinner. I'd recommend.

Amazing food !!! Super nice place, I was fascinated by the attention of the bartenders, the food is delicious, I would like to go back. I was there for Valentine's Day and although everything was with reservation and it was very full they made me a space in the bar to serve us. Thank you very much

I stopped by Anejo with a couple of friends for dinner this week and had a great experience overall. It's a cute, laid back space with a decent range of menu options, including vegetarian dishes, and the prices are reasonable for the area. We ordered guacamole, roasted Brussels sprouts, and my one friend and I shared the grilled octopus and salmon entrees. Our other friend ordered cauliflower tacos, which he has had there before and seems to really like. Everything was very tasty and well seasoned, and the food and drinks came out quickly. My only critique is that the octopus was very tough and chewy. Other seafood lovers may not mind that, but I wouldn't order that particular dish again. I loved everything else though, and our server was attentive and friendly, which was a plus.

I came here for bottomless brunch with my friends. We had a really great time. Everyone at the table has to participate. I loved that brunch came with chips, guac, and salsa. The chips were on the thick side, which I love. The guac was thick, which I also love. We also got French toast to share before our appetizers. People got margaritas and mimosas. My friends said the margaritas were strong. Service was great! I would definitely come back.

Had a get together with coworkers for happy hour. Food was delicious and the drinks were good as well.

The pork belly tostadas are so freaking delicious. The chef is literally brilliant! The yucca fries perfectly cooked wherever I order them they're usually undercooked not here though. We also had the corn tamales with chorizo sauce and a poached egg really good dish too nice look small full bar friendly staff!

We came for happy hour. The A/C was blasting to the point we had to put our jackets on! The sangria was good; empanadas were not very special (but were inexpensive too, so..); queso fondido was nice and cheesy (but quickly got too cold and tough as it was so cold inside the restaurant), and th loaded yuca fries were delicious and refreshing. I love a good Happy Hour

We were on our way to another restaurant in mid town when we passed by Añejo. Must have been fate that the other place ended up closed for Labor Day, because we came back and had a great meal. We came in around 5:45 and they had no problem getting us in and out comfortably before our show at 7. We started with the Salsa quatro sampler, followed by the Pork belly tostadas and Carne arrechera. The white sauce and the salsa verde were my favorite 2 salsas of the bunch. I highly recommend the carne arrechera. The beef was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the pickled vegetables that came with it were tasty too. I don't normally find the side of rice and beans interesting enough to finish, but they were delicious here.
