We came here on break from our conference. The restaurant is conveniently located by the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center. Although busier than normal, our server was attentive. The food was good but not the best I've had. However, if in the area, would return.

My experience was great. Ty (the bartender) was phenomenal. He made me the best lemon drop I have ever had! The presentation was nothing less than amazing. I will definitely be back.

Outstanding food and even better service. We had multiple waitresses checking on us the whole meal and the manager came over to make sure everything was good as well. Highly recommend.

Did not find the margarita worth the top shelf price. Very average drink and service.

Worst customer service!! We waited over 20 mins for anyone to notice us! The water guy came and then the chips. Still no waiter, we waited another 10 mins and still nothing. We ended up walking out and I told the hostess and all he said was ok and nod his head. There was another couple that were walking out for the same reason! They’re definitely in the wrong area for a crappy service! The only two waiters that were there were too busy flirting with two girls at the bar. Worst place ever.

Nice Tex-mex spot. Close to the Omni if you want to walk over. Loved the chicken fajitas!

Stoped in here for an early dinner. Hopeful for a great Mexican expeienrce, really enjoyed the openness of this space, surrounded by windows and natural light. We got there and it was basically empty, other than 2 tables. It was clearly slow with waiters waiting around, so I would have expected better service. The waiter never took a drink order, only came to ask what we'd want for food, and never returned to check up on us. The menu was rather limited, only offering a few options in each category, not a great selection overall. The food was ok, but rather overpriced for basic Mexican food. Probably wouldn't return, I'd try to find another spot to check out next time

Severely under staffed and slow. Got our order wrong. Manager gave me receipt without itemized copy. Didn't mention auto gratuity was added. Last server was great and hustling but had no real suppprt

I would have loved to of reviewed this place on its food because the food was delicious. But unfortunately I'm having to give this place a 3 star due to service. Yes the place was busy (there was NCA Nationals gong on in Dallas) but that was not even the issue, we expected to wait and what not. The issue was when we sat down the waitress never asked would this be separate checks or one check. There was clearly 5 adults & 6 children with us. Due to it being slammed the drink refills were lacking but again food came out pretty quickly in my opinion. The issue was the check when it was time to get the check the waitress brought just one and we said wait we aren't all together please separate the check, she tells us matter a factly that they don't do that here and that it was our fault we didn't tell her! Gets even better when we start having to cash app one lady in our group that covered the whole thing she notices that the money we sent doesn't cover the bill that she paid! That's when we noticed the automatic gratuity of almost $60....we would have tipped her....but that's not the only issue it appears she wouldn't get that automatic gratuity if the check would have been split, so that was off the top annoying but even with the added it all up with that we still weren't adding up. Then we had to break it down and noticed there were extra plates added which drove the bill up. We ended up asking for those things to be refunded.....which the lady had to wait for her bank to release back to her. Extremely unprofessional. Again food was amazing just hated the attitude when we asked to separate the bill which turned into an absolute mess.Kid-friendliness: Did not see anything for kids.

Went in for dinner with family . Food was Delicious. Food came out rather quickly, only got waters too drink . Our other drinks ordered NEVER came . Took 20 extra minutes to get out 2go boxes and another extra 20 minutes to get our check to pay . Our waiter kept going behind the bar to make drinks , yet our drinks never came . They definitely need a bartender on the weekends so customers are serviced better
