Food was slow. The place is breaking down with leaking water from air con and dim down lights. So dim that we couldnt even see our food properly. Shortage of manpower with only 1 waiter serving at lest 8 tables

Food was great as always. Tried the corn platter and sadly it was only limited to 2 items. We had a jug of margaritas but it tasted very light compare to when we order by the glass. We will come back again.

Waiter was helpful to find a suitable table. But later on we had to get the waiters attention to make the order. The menu is a bit misleading on suckling pig 200gr. It says with fried banana in menu, but as food arrived we couldn’t see any and upon asking the waiter said it was in the sauce. To pay again we had to try to get a waiters attention and it took along time before the bill finally arrived. It was a busy night and maybe understaffed. Otherwise, food and drinks were great!

Nice Mexican food at El Mero Mero. My 2nd time here and it has pretty decent food though some dishes are a bit pricey. Anyway with the entertainer 1 for 1, you can save quite a bit!

Great food and service. Octopus is a must try dish, not overcooked and rubbery. Was quite tender and juicy. Loved the cerviche and drinks too.

Poor and slow service, messed up our orders and below average quality food when it did arrive. Meals were cold and lacking flavour and chicken wasn't well cooked.

GReat ambience but prices steep for a small portion. Ordered the grilled octopus and the beef tenderloin taco. It was delicious but portions are really too small- was not full at all.

A beautifully presented food and setting. First time I have been in the rain and with the large cover it is totally fine. Starters are a large portion based on the salad I got. Don’t try the Micheala beer, it’s an acquired test, thought I would try. Not again. Margarita is great as usual

Our dinner was stunning. From the service to drinks and food, this is a place to be. We had Cava brut to begin with. Lamb and prawn tempura tacos. Then head chef presented corn street sampler. Pisco sour were served while waiting for our mains. Grilled octopus is so tender and beef fajita is seasoned well. We capped off with pecan pie which was delicious.

The ambiance was great, thanks to Chijmes. The service was bit slow and food was OK. Less chicken options. Drinks were good. Overall experience not so bad.

The restaurant's ambiance was good and service was decent. However, we felt let down by the quality of the food and did not think that prices were value-for-money. For example, we ordered the beef burrito, but there were very few pieces of meat and the beef was tough and overcooked.

I love the grilled corn and huitlacoche donut appetiser! The ambience of the restaurant at the CHIJMES courtyard was also fantastic, and i'd recommend El Mero Mero for a gathering or even special occasion.

Poor service and tiny food portions. It’s Mexican so it should be generous. $26 for 3 tiny tacos. Desert (sorbet) was served in the smallest bowl ever made. Waited 25 mins for the desert and were then told that they had run out of what we ordered despite the waitress spruiking the choice. Too little food for too much money.

Great cocktails and drinks, and superb fish tacos! Would come back again to try more of the other tacos. The beef fajitas weren't that great though.

As usual, El Mero Mero provides authentic Mexican cuisine with a touch of class. The food is complemented by an excellent drinks menu, which includes Tequilas and Mezcals. Great service too!

They took a long time to serve the order; and then got one of the two items wrong! The food itself was a 4. They tried to make up fir it by not charging for the wrong dish.

Outdoor seating is better than indoor to enjoy Chijmes experience. Beef fajitas are very good! Chicken enchilada green sauce was a bit too salty for our taste. Overall good dining experience and will come again.

Whilst the food was good and the environment very nice (sitting outside in the Chijmes courtyard), the service was absolutely terrible. We waited about 55 mins for anything to arrive, and then the staff forgot entirely about our starters. We were presented with our main courses and then told that the starter would come later (we said "forget it"; didn't want the starter as a dessert!). Good location and ambience, tasty food, expensive, terrible and unattentive service.

Embience is always nice especially outside. There is a gentle breeze, sunlight and peaceful view. Food is also great. Enmoladas and free range chicken tacos are fantastic.

One of our favorite dining spots in Singapore. Great food, atmosphere and service. We highly recommend the unique tacos (fish, shrimp and tenderloin are terrific)!
