Best Mexican restaurant in netherlands

E	Eszter Markó on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ First of all, the interior design and atmosphere is 10/10 - the best looking place I have ever been to. I had a virgin caipirinha, a vegetarian burrito and churros. The caipirinha had a perfect balance between spiciness, sourness and sweetness. The consistency of the churros and the flavour of the chocolate dip was also perfect. I personally prefer burritos where the rice, sauce and salad are put inside it, here they were put in little plates which makes the burrito a little less flavorful but it had fresh cilantro. Service is a little slow but kind.
j	jiamin yan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Overall a nice experience, very creative and thoughtful interior space. Ordered few drinks, starters and entrees. Their mojito taste great! The pino Colada on the other hand is not so authentic. Taste more juice like instead of the ice cone it should be. The presentation of ceviche is unexpected and tastes really fresh. Great combination with the green sauce underneath and surprisingly good with the chips! We ordered Tataki as well, however it’s too dry for me. Not a big fan of that. Both entree is great! The popo bowl is such a great value!! I ordered basic bowl(€10) with one topping pulled pork(€2.5) with Salsa roja sauce on the side. The bowl is huge! And you could see how much pulled pork they throw in the bowl with only €2.5! It’s flavorful and fresh! More than enough for one person! Highly recommend that. Pollo picante: they roast the chicken so well. It’s juicy and flavorful! And goes well with the side salad. Btw the fries is delicious as well! Pleasant experience ?
N	Nynke on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My favourite restaurant in Haarlem! The staff is always friendly, and the food is great. I just wish they would bring back the nacho's as a main dish.
P	Praveen Hiremath on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ was good. not a fan for aubergine filling in the Vegetarian Burrito, but it tasted good.
S	Sarah Long on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a very pleasant experience here. Really good food, nice drinks and an awesome location. The interior is really cool too. Definitely a spot where you can go for some food and drinks or cocktails. We had the Mexican burger with sweet potato fries, the famous ribs, the vegetarian nachos and the Popo salad and we all loved it! You will definitely have to get one of their delicious lemonades! They are gorgeous and made with love! Prices are reasonable. Definitely worth a try.
L	Lisa Formby on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We just tried Popo again (after several years) and I’m so glad we did! We really enjoyed the enchiladas; we had the pollo and the beef. Perfectly cheesy inside, tasty filling combo of meat and veg, and sauce was good too. Nice portion in my opinion. We shared a carafe of frozen lime margarita (good deal) and I will say, there could be some improvement in the frozen ‘Rita, not as smooth as I like but it did the job! Some reviewer mentioned it being more TexMex and to that I’d say, that’s what makes it good! (Honestly, It’s on the fringe, I lived in TX for almost 30 years, I think this is a nice balance of both) There are so many places tryin to go “so authentic” Mexican, and that’s great too, but we all need a little TexMex in our life. We’ll be back!
N	Natalia Neustroeva on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great location and pretty good menu. The food is a hit or miss. (The fried cauliflower had way too much lemon juice on it, but the wraps and quesadillas are good.) The customer service is very lacking though, the staff is quite passive and not very friendly.
O	Oksana on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Super food and drinks. Great location and staff. Really had a great time. Bitterballen with jalapeño were outstanding. Chicken perfectly cooked and seasoned. Pulled pork on the nachos fantastic.
