what a dump this place is. just like coyote crossing's or cj's or whatever the hell it is now…same horrible serivce, lame way overpriced food. i feel bad for the new owners who are going to loose their shirt once this place changes owners…for the 9th time.
So disappointing. So overpriced. Don't waste your time.

This place is a joke..found 3 different hairs in my meal, which was horrible food anyway. i paid 20 some dollars for a rolled up piece of overcooked salted filet..if it was even filet..couldn't tell. Service aspect was horrible as well. Best part of that place is the roof top, which reminds me of real Mexico because of how dirty it is up there. Id be surprised if they even make it past this summer before they have to close down and reopen as some other crazy concept.I give this place zero stars
The only thing going for this place is the rooftop which closes at midnight-when it's open at all.
Hey, where'd you go????
This is why new owners are buying it and hopefully turning it around. I would hate to see another bank take over the building or offices. It should stay a unique restuarant. We have everything downtown. The rooftop is nice during the summer for the night breezes.
Should stay open later though!
Don't read the comments from the other people here as they are talking about whatever the last place was. Mas has done a good job with the place. I have eaten there three times already and each time has been very good. Atmosphere is very nice and I can't wait to drink some coronas on the roof top bar (Too windy on Saturday). Only gripe is that the fajitas had small portions, but everything else was large enough.
NO WAY would I go back.First off, the music was too loud. Apparently, we were ordering and the waiter couldn't hear us because we were put right near a speaker.Second, I ordered plain meat and cheese tacos, no beans, double rice. Tacos on corn shell. I ended up getting plain meat and cheese tacos, no beans, double rice with tacos on "wheat" tortilla.Third, I think this place is the right place for 20s and 30s singles, not 40s and teens like me and my parents. We will not go back as a family again. Sorry Mas!
Went there with my boyfriend to try the new place out and were hoping to sit on the roof but as many people have mentioned, it's rarely open, which is really frustrating. Our service in general was great and our server was very friendly and helpful, though we didn't catch her name. However, the quality of the food was very poor. We we given the complimentary pico de gallo and "warm" tortilla chips .. the pico was watery and tasteless and the chips were far from warm. We started with the flaming queso appetizer, which was a joke. It was lit at the table, went out within a matter of seconds, and the appetizer itself tasted like ground up sausage with Kraft cheese slices melted on top. Our entrees were edible, and that was about it. I will say that the Tres Leches dessert was good, but the actual product was QUITE far from the description given in the menu. The drinks were great, the specials seem reasonable, AND they have free salsa lessons on Mondays. We'll be back, just NOT for the food!
I went last weekend during the afternoon ..I was spared any loud music issue ..got the nachos ..pretty bland …we both got salads 1 beef 1 chicken..both pretty good …would go back for the salad …looked like a decent place to watch a game during the day on the weekend as it was not crowded…I will return
I enjoyed the food. The drinks were good. The waitress was either at your table continously or you could not find them. However over all it was good. Not overpriced. 3 people with drinks 77.00. If someone wants to eat cheap, they should go to mcdonalds or stay home. I will go again.!!!
Went last Friday. Good crowd not crazy busy.
Cons:
Margaritas were average at best
Drinks while we were at our table were very slow to arrive
No exaggeration, food took an hour and a half to come after we ordered and we had kids with us. Absolutely unacceptable (don't know if that was a server,cook or system problem but freakin fix it)
No chips/salsa anything while waiting
We told our server to tell his manager we weren't happy about how long the food took. It would have been nice to have the manager at least stop by to placate us. A comped $4 quesidilla would have gone a long way to change our impression of least their customer service, but nothing.
Pros:
Once the food got there it was very good.
Price is right
Good vibe/decor
My first time at MAS was amazing. The second time the food was not that good. The third time the food was horribel!! My fourth and final time last night put me over the edge. Our server was very bad, never at our table, took about 20 mins just to get a drink and the food was soo bland and tasteless. I will not be going back. Great building and very unique inside but horrible mexican food.
Service was slow and food took an hour to arrive. When we finally got the appetizer which I completely forgot about, I thought it was the main course!
The waitress told us several times that the "menu lies" when ordering and that selection wasn't available.
Drinks were slow to arrive to the point you ordered ahead of time to compensate.
The food was standard, bland American style Mexican. It seems that the staff was more concerned about setting up for the Saturday night crowd than anything else and although our waitress was nice, she never apologized for the long wait.
This is more of night spot than a restaurant.
so it seems another West Chester restaurant has forgotten how important service is ..we went last night and were happy to see we could get seated right away , we sat for 10 minutes with a waiter stopping at the table across from us 3 times and nobody even motioned at us , stopped by to say we will be right with you …..so we left and went to Rams Head and had a great meal ….I would say the look of shock on the hostess face was the only good thing about MAS …such a bummer as our 1st trip was good enough to come back ….this 2nd trip will be our last …..maybe we will try what goes in that building next
The drinks are decent but the food is terrible. It is a sad, sad day when a Mexican restaurant can't even get tortilla chips right. My friend and I barely touched our meals – they were inedible. The staff is friendly enough but the service is very slow. This place just can't get it right – no matter what the name is…
