This was my second time coming here & not getting food. 1st time i realized they closed in 30 minutes. Even though I only wanted a taco, they "didn't have the time" to make it. Okay. Bye. Today was my 2nd time. Came in at 10, was ignored. Completely. They took care of a table in front of me, & I know the two waitresses both saw me. They then took two walk in to-go orders after I came in. After waiting & being ignored for 15 minutes, I just got up & walked out. I give everyone two chances. I won't ever darken their doorway again. I would give them zero stars if possible, actually, I'd give them a sub rating. They don't deserve the star. I'm so disappointed. I hate leaving bad reviews. Life goes on. I won't waste my time ever again.

The place is really cute and cozy. It is definitely a family business which is nice. However, the food wasn't all that great to me. I got the chilaquiles plate and everything was very under seasoned with barely any salt. The chilaquiles themselves had a ton of raw onion just chopped on top. I like onion but it was just way too much. my boyfriend got the fajitas and they were really good tho. it had a ton of meat and he didn't even finish it all.

I found this place on Yelp and I'm glad I did! I had the caldo de pollo and it was So so good! The flavor of the broth and the tenderness of the vegetables hit all the right spots. The fresh onion and cilantro and lime took it up a notch. They offered 3 different salsas and all were good. I will be coming back for that tasty caldo. You all should give this spot a try if your in the area.

Menudo. It was good for a gloomy and cold day. Lots of tripe and hominy. Lots leftover too.

Update! Came back to order their torta sandwich, burrito, and breakfast tacos. The torta and burrito was for friends who said it was delicious. Might I add that they were HUGE. The breakfast tacos were huge also! Bigger than other breakfast tacos I've gotten. They can easily be for brunch or lunch. Lots of filling even if it was just two ingredients. I had the potato and egg breakfast taco and that filled me up all morning till mid afternoon (5 hrs). Placed a call order and everything was ready within 15 mins. Great service! Definitely and highly recommend!

Wow! Super happy to stubble on this place. Did a Yelp pick of the draw and man it did not disappoint! Super friendly staff and flavorful food! Fresh and happy happy good food!

Mini Tacos with Nopalitos, sautéed pico, and avocado.

This place was spectacular. They were very happy to accommodate my plant-based eating restrictions. They did so with mastery. I got the mini taquitos and replaced the meat option with nopalitos and sautéed pico de gallo, topped with a beautifully fresh avocado (these tacos are not on the menu). I replaced the charro beans with refried beans. It was all delicious. They serve entrees with 3 salsas: a traditional chip salsa, a delicious tomatillo salsa, and roasted habanero salsa. The "cafe de olla" warms the soul. This was the perfect place to refuel before heading back to the Dallas area.

This restuarant recently opened up so my bf and I decided to check it out. The food was pretty good and very well priced (everything under $10 I think) and you get a pretty big portion. I got a Taco Bowl with chicken fajita meat and it was super good!

This spot is AMAZING! Everything we had was just *chefs kiss*! We got the torts, tacos, caldo de res, and breakfast tacos, the meats were so tender and flavorful i will 100% be coming back !

This place is so good! Ordered the mini taquitos asada and my husband got the pastor. Added avocado and queso fresco. The salsa, rice, and beans were on point. Everything so delicious! The service was great and they are so friendly.

Too much drinking and dancing last night- I woke up Crudo to the max! As we used to say in the day, a relaxed, chill, place - a working class hole in the wall. The menudo and coffee fixed me right up! I'm ready to back and go "a la paranda" all over again. The menudo had a great kick and was tasty as hell.

In the lobby for checkin today, I had an instant headache because the fragrance was so strong. At that point they informed us that there is some additional fee per day on top of the already pricey room, a fee that they never disclosed before today. We continued upstairs, and I could hardly breathe in the elevator it was so scented. When we got to the room it was also heavily fragranced. I tried to call the front desk, and the phone in the room didn't work reliably. Our call dropped several times. They offered box fans for us to air out the room. However, when we opened the windows, a blast of cigarette smoke wafted into the room because it is directly above their designated smoking area. We asked the front desk for help, and they said not to worry, hardly anyone smokes in that area. Meanwhile we watched several people out there smoking almost constantly. They offered no other accommodation or help. Not worth it. Very uncomfortable and upset because this will ruin our vacation. Edit: 1 to 3 stars. The manager eventually heard our concerns, responding to a secondary issue with cigar smoke in our room after leaving windows open - their recommendation- to air out the room. They found us a different accommodation and made it more than fair and comfortable. Why not 4 stars? Because it took the entire first day to be resolved.

Maybe even a little confusing, but I think it's all part of its charm. 100% take the recommendations from the server they know their way around that.

Such a good night, me and my friends are still raving about it!

Another great meal! Our server Brahim provided the perfect service: attentive, thoughtful, kind…read more Really enhanced our meal. For a starter we shared the cornbread with another couple and it was plenty for 4 people. If you are from out of town and looking for some Texas-shaped vittles or just want something substantial to stretch your meal I recommend it! Very tasty and filling. For my main I had the scallops with creamed corn risotto. It was a dainty portion but the flavors were nice. My husband had the short rib tagliatelle which he loved. It was very rich and filling. We had the buttermilk pie again for dessert and this time it tasted sweeter than I remembered. It was good but we couldn't finish it. Idk if it was my tastebuds or if it was different. Anyways still a great meal overall and we will be back!

They have a nice entrance directly from the backside where the river is and some outdoor seating but the hat and sticky summer months told us to go inside in the AC. The servers were professional and fancy, he gave some recommendations for his favorite dish and I tried the brussels sprouts appetizer and the bison short rib tagliatelle. I would say it was all pretty good, but not anything I would seek to order again specifically

Pinkerton's Barbecue

IMMACULATE. My grandma and sister picked up my girlfriend and I from the airport and pulled up here…read moreright after on 4th July weekend. We arrived around 5pm on a Thursday and got in queue which was out the door and wrapping around the front porch. Their host/doorman was kind, he offered the line water on many occasions and made pleasantries with almost all guests as the line moved. It was a hot day so those waters were clutch. By the time we made it to the front of order line maybe 40 minutes had passed. But ladies and gents the wait is worth it. When we plated our trays on the table my family all had heart eyes, and had equally loved our first bites. Their brisket is extremely tender. It's beautifully sliced and made for an amazing welcome back to the South taste for me. I was in heaven. I particularly enjoyed having the fresh pickled red onion for fresh, zesty cuts through the abundance of other saltier elements on the plate. Their menu is slammin! Their sides, and sausages all had crafty ingredients. I enjoyed their spicy link options and their macaroni was delightful. Their BBQ sauce was a nice 4/5 but certainly did the job. As a native Texan who's had their fair share, this was easily some of the best barbecue I've ever had. Top 5 top 5 top 5. I'm of course coming back and looking forward for more banana cream pudding especially. They were small, slightly sweet, and had great balance with the vanilla wafer ratio. That whip cream on top too had me hooked. I couldn't have asked for a better welcome back meal for the bold Texas cuisine, hospitality, and novelty animal and cowboy decor.

great food kind and attentive staff…read more amazing vibes loved it awesome check em out

Most of the steam buns are about $5.00 and are good for three bites. The bowls selection reminded me of ordering at Chipotle, but with an Asian flare. The high point was the service.

Lunch special until 3 pm…read more Food was 4 star, the whole beans received in cup, was more bean soup than whole beans. Beef taco /shell 5,star. Beef enchilada was 3 star, needed more flavor. Food quality has not been constant on our visits, usually late lunch times. Server was great. Answered my questions and addressed my concerns at the end of our lunch. The recurring major flaw, is the way the restaurant inside was designed. It is beautiful but made with all hard surfaces. Nothing present to absorb sounds. As a result sounds inside magnify to a point our servers have had to bend over or take a knee to gather clients food orders during busy times. I feel like I am ar a big Spurs game with the sound bouncing around. Those at our table have had a hard time to have a conversation with each other at times. The small room up front is designed so sound bouncing off hard surfaces is worst in this room. I have had to ask to be relocated twice from this room due the sound level. The kitchen area in the front do not have doors to abd from the kitcgen to the dinibg rooms. Another design flaw, as a result the seating areas loud sound comes into the kitchen area. I can not imagine how the staff communicate to each other in this work setting.

Where should we go? How about Papa nachos?…read moreGround Beef Enchiladas, and I'm like oh my God. That's what I'm like. Oh my God.

Amazing place. Figured I would try a place close to me and I wasn't disappointed. Even my picky 13 year old enjoyed the food.
