The Scene
Bright Mayan-themed art graces the walls, ceiling and menu. The waitstaff speak more Spanish than English, and service is prompt, friendly and attentive.

The Food
A large order of crab meat seviche… Read Full Editorial

Botanas Restaurant is GREAT!! by Chanel W via Insider Pages on 1/1/2010

This restaurant is the best, and their staff is awesome! I LOVE their chicken quasadeia. Their rainbow Marquita are five times better than La Fuentes and bigger portions. Best Mexican restaurant in MILWAUKEE!! Two Thumbs UP!

Average Food, Below Average Service by DNP via Citysearch on 9/19/2009

Bad service from the minute we walked in the door, to the minute we stepped out. The Mexicans practically beg for a tip, reminding you to 'give 15%.' I can see why they need to remind people, given their bad service they are probably used…

food was o.k. service was good. margaritis were excellent. nice astmosphere. awfull doesn't begin to describe how terrible the guacomole was. it was the worst i have ever had. i could not even eat it!! it was the consistency of a…

My favorite Mexican in Milwaukee by jayoldenburg via Citysearch on 1/9/2009

Love it. This restaurant has the appropriate balance of truly authentic mealsand the usual standby cuisine. Drinks are good and atmosphere is fun. I eat here often for lunch and dinner and have not ever been disappointed.

Best Mexican in Milwaukee by Kristin Z via Insider Pages on 11/20/2008

Botanas has, in my opinion, THE BEST Mexican food in Milwaukee. I could eat their homemade chips and salsa and be satisfied. Their enchiladas are to die for- try them with the mole sauce. My family agrees this place is the best- and we can…

Lousy at Best! by worldlygrl via Citysearch on 8/18/2008

Had a date here this weekend, but found the atmosphere rather dull...... After picking at the stale chips and salsa and watered down margaritas we decided to go down the street. Not recommended.!

Best Mexican Restaurant in Town by ~Just Me ~ via Insider Pages on 8/17/2008

Botana's by far is the best Mexican restaurant in town. Great service staff, great good -- just add some good friends and good laughing and definitely the best place in town!!

All around great by kkw99 via Citysearch on 7/15/2008

Just went to Botanas for the first time after going to many other Mexican restaurants around Milwaukee. We were impressed. The patio was nice, each table had an umbrella. We got tons of refills on chips and salsa and water was refilled…

Worst Mexican Food in Milwaukee by kedvale via Citysearch on 6/15/2008

My husband, my friend and I stopped in at Botanas for what we thought was going to be a good dinner. We ordered the most standard appetizer, guacamole. Unfortunately it was very bland, had no flavor and wasn't very fresh.. We had to ask…

The best authentic Mexican restaurant in Milwaukee! by tasty_1 via Citysearch on 1/3/2008

We found out about Botanas when it first opened because a Mexican-American frien recommended it. At that time it was a tiny restaurant and always packed. Business has been so good that the restaurant has expanded several time and is…

Botanas Restaurant by Marianne B via Insider Pages on 9/23/2007

The food is great! It is really good Mexican food with a lot of variety on the menu. Many Mexican restaurants in the area use too much salt in their food, but this one relies on good flavor. The atmosphere is really nice, but the place is…

Excellent Food by RJ S via Insider Pages on 9/23/2007

My whole family loves to eat at Botanas.\r Their newly remodeled outdoor area really opens up the outside area.\r Their mexican food is easily one of the best around.\r Their service is outstanding.

Avoid by mrseleanor via Citysearch on 9/12/2007

Unimpressed. I would rather go to Taco Bell which I haven't gone to since college. Maybe they should revisit their menu and hire new people that will provide service. The other couple we went with was so embarrassed about their choice of…

Great environment, great service, great food by mergenow via Citysearch on 1/5/2007

The environment - from the mural on the wall, to the tables and the chairs, to the ambient music - gives this restaurant a very authentic feel. Although I was already on a short vacation, stepping into the restaurant made me feel so much…

Best Value for your Dollar by dominfull via Citysearch on 12/30/2006

Jaime....i just love your resturant...service food all great....and its fun to watch you and your wife get smashed at the bar! I live in the neighborhood and try to come monthly...its great to see you do well. Id encourage those who are…

pretty cheap and good by webergillin via Citysearch on 10/22/2006

better than average mexican, a little bit dirtier than i would have hoped a bit . Liked the chips service

Botanas has changed - not for the better! by midavyg via Citysearch on 9/9/2005

Stopped for dinner the other night about nine. Waitstaff said they were closing early, but the manager said they would serve us as there were other patrons in the restaurant, so we stayed. Ordered drinks and fajitas. Everything came at…

One of the BEST! Great service and food. by Erin C. via Judy's Book on 9/7/2005

This is quickly becoming my favorite mexican restaurant. The service is always fantastic and the food is always delicious.I really love the enchiladas here, as well as the enchilada soup! The salsa is fabulous, because it is loaded up with…

Botanas by Erin L. via Judy's Book on 7/22/2005

This is one of the best spots to have a Girl's Night Out, family dinner, or romatic evening. The staff here is so friendly and fun. They have great drinks and wonderful food. The inside is smallish, but we did not feel cramped. The patio…

Great food for the price by jlreik via Citysearch on 3/12/2005

Great food, quick service - like La Fuente, but without the wait!
