La Que Manda Centro

Overpriced drinks for what it was. Only a few tables by the windows that overlook the street. No toilet paper in the stalls. Waitress didn’t give change and took an overly generous tip…

The two stars is for the ambiance and decor, which was colorful and fun — it seemed like it’d be more lively with a larger group, on a weekend night.

Interesting place. You have to go down a hall and up an elevator to get to the restaurant.
There was a cover charge of 120 pesos to get in. Then it took them forever to get a waiter to take our order.
We both ordered the 3 taco plate with beef rib meat and two margaritas. The tacos were 3 for 95 pesos and the margaritas were also 95 pesos each. The margaritas came in a small glass with a giant ice cube to take up space. However, the margaritas did taste good. When the tacos were brought to us, they were very tasty.
There was a live band playing salsa and cumbia music. They were very good. We ordered two more drinks then asked for our bill. The waiter whips out a calculator and tells me the bill is just under a 1000 pesos. I told him the were 95 pesos each and each margarita was 95 pesos which should have amounted to less than 600 pesos total. He tried to tell me that the margaritas we ordered had Don Pablo tequila which costs more. That's not what the menu indicated. He breaks out the calculator and recalculates, this time the total is about 820 pesos. I decided to cut my losses before things got worse, so we paid the bill and left. I really hate that he didn't even bring us a receipt, he just calculated it at the table. Makes me wonder if he is cheating his boss. I would have given a better score but the waiter experience really put me off on this place. I won't be returning. I suggest others not go here as well.

We stopped in for a drink. I asked for a drink menu and the server would not give us one. I ordered a margarita and my husband ordered a draft beer. When we were done I asked for a bill and the server told me what it cost. Seemed over priced to me so i asked for a bill again. He left and came back with a piece of paper that he had written 250 pesos on, not an actual bill. The whole experience seemed pretty dishonest to me.
I didn't feel like arguing so I paid and left. I wouldn't go back.

AWFUL!!
Service is completely awful, they keep you waiting a lot (REALLY A LOT) for your order, prices are extremely high for something you can get in better places for better prices.
Our waiter was super rude so we decided not to tip him (in Mexico City tips are not obligated) and he didn't wanted to let us go, he called the manager.
The manager told us that we should tip the waiter because it was the only income they have because they work for the tips, and we were like "wait a second" it's your obligation to PAY YOUR WORKER, not ours and if they really work only for the tips, service should be faster and better.
I swear not to put a foot in this place.

The place atmosphere is ok of you are really into banda music! The service is very poor since one only sees the waiter once u come in and at the time to pay. The whole service is done by the assistance. Otherwise ,if u r a fan of banda music this is your spot!!

Good place to know, listen and dance mexican music (called banda sinaloense mainly) It is expensive and it is a cover place, per person you could pay $500.00 MXN +/- Could be a noisy place per moments. I like it because it is fun and a lot of dance like salsa, cumbia reggaeton when "banda" is out. It is a colorful place with alot of funny phrases in the roof.
