My…read morehusband indulged in the "Costillas Barbacoa," featuring hickory-smoked baby back ribs generously coated in a rich BBQ sauce. I opted for the "Acapulco Steak," a grilled New York strip steak adorned with sautéed Spanish onions, green peppers, and tomatoes, accompanied by Mexican rice, refried beans, and a fresh salad. Although we were so captivated by the flavors that we forgot to capture the moment with a photograph, the meal was truly memorable. Rango' Tex-Mex stands out as one of the finest Mexican restaurants we have encountered in quite some time. It presents an ideal setting for a lively happy hour after work, while also maintaining a warm and welcoming family atmosphere. The restaurant's versatility caters to diverse groups, making it a perfect choice for any occasion.The artwork adorning the walls is noteworthy, with its authentic Mexican themes. For those yearning for the comforting flavors of home-style cooking, Rango' Tex-Mex is highly recommended!

Another food runner immediately brought us water and chips and salsa. The salsa tasted a little bland and felt like it was missing some salt or some other seasoning/ingredient. We ordered another round but it was about the same. The chips were great. The seafood enchiladas I ordered were flavorful and there was a great spread of guacamole, sour cream, beans and rice. The plates were served hot and the kitchen had the good come out quite quickly which was appreciated. We'll be back!

My wife and I had been to this restaurant on prior occasion although didn't realize it until we…read morearrived. We were promptly seated for dinner and my wife asked for a ginger beer to which the server indicated he didn't think they served ginger beer. My wife indicated that it's on the menu so the server lost instant credibility by saying they didn't have it, and didn't bother to say he would go check. The server brought chips and salsa which we thought were ok. The chips were really thin and the salsa was runny to the point I got it all over the table. Despite asking the server for napkins, he didn't bring any after 10 mins of waiting. I ended up going to the kitchen and asking if I could have napkins and brought them back to the table myself. Totally ridiculous that a customer has to serve themself. Restaurant cleanliness appeared to be problematic with napkins and debris on the floor, and tables that took 30 mins to get cleaned after patrons left. My wife had fajitas and thought they were good. I had a burrito that had a very thick tortilla to the point I felt like I was eating bread. Some of the steak in the burrito was medium-rare despite not being asked for my preference of how I wanted it cooked. You would think that would be well done in this instance. Needless to say, my wife said we're not returning and I'm not going to fight her over it. I don't recall our first experience being this way but the service and food have definitely changed for the worst.

I would definitely suggest making a reservation. We waited for almost 30 minutes because it was packed, and that was on a Thursday. The service was quick, though, and the food came out fast. We had the burrito, roti, taco and fries. The portions were generous, and everything had such a unique flavor. Our bellies definitely weren't big enough to try more, but everything we had was delicious. There's plenty of space inside, which I loved, and the bathrooms were clean. They also have free parking, which is always a plus.

3.5/5 Happy Hour…read moreExperience-came here around 5:30pm on a Friday- did not need reservations. We did happy hour (bar area only)- they had high top seats so we could sit with each other). We got the $11 nachos with brisket, $11 taquitos chicken, $12 taquitos el pastor?, and $7 margs. The food was yummy- and the margs were good. The service was a bit slow and lacking-we had to be the ones to flag down the server multiple times- even went up to the counter to place our orders because we couldn't catchy anyone's attention. It took margaritas almost 20 minutes to get out- of it was faster we probably would've ordered more. It was getting busier but far from being packed. We saw the employees chatting and goofing around a lot. tldr: food and drinks were good but took a while to be able to order and get the food and drinks out. Decent happy hour prices (in this economy).

Los Carnales has a great setup, especially if you enjoy sitting near the action. The bar area is…read morespacious with plenty of seating, and we chose to sit right at the bar. The ambience is lively without feeling cramped, which makes it an easy place to settle in after work. Happy Hour: Their happy hour is definitely the main draw. The large margaritas are priced extremely well, and when the mix is right, they're excellent. The only downside is consistency -- sometimes the drinks have a good balance of alcohol, and other times they taste more like lemonade and feel watered down. The appetizer prices are also great. We ordered the fried wings and Mexican rice; both were okay and edible, but not particularly memorable compared to other spots. Service: Service was generally good, but with only one bartender covering the entire bar, there were stretches where he disappeared or was tied up. Nothing terrible, just not the level of attentiveness you get at places with more staff behind the bar. Overall: Despite the inconsistencies, we'd come back. The happy hour prices are hard to beat, and when the drinks hit right, it's worth the visit.

This place is big and pretty open, they have a cool little fountain in the middle of the dining area and a bustling bar area too. I'll be back sometime when I'm back in the area.

We love Mexican food like many do, but Guapos just always hits the spot. They have lots of delicious dishes but we both always get the Steak Fajitas. You get 10oz of marinated skirt steak and that marinade is fire. The steak comes on a sizzling platter with a side of Mexican butter. Butter y'all! You 100% want to pour that butter all over the steak and the sautéed green peppers and onions. This was a new thing for me, but the flavor is incredible. This steak just melts in your mouth. I'm salivating thinking about it. This entree is way too big of a serving to eat at once, but I typically do and am way too full. It's that good! The Fajitas are served with Mexican rice, a la charra beans, guacamole, lettuce, pico de gallo, sour cream and homemade tortillas on the side. The charra beans are also a unique touch. They are hearty and flavorful. Must also brag on their homemade tortillas. To me, the flour is where it's at. They are so soft. You can actually watch them making them fresh from your table. When you put all the fajitas components together and take a bite, it's really delish. Chips and salsa is also stellar, as is their fresh guacamole and queso. If you are going to get a margarita just go ahead and get the large size. They are yummy and it's a better deal than ordering two. Their restaurants are large so lots of tables to accommodate small and large parties alike. It's a casual joint so great for families, celebrations, date night. Service is always quick and attentive, even when they are very busy. If you want a great Mexican meal, come to Guapos. Get those steak fajitas. No notes.

I had El Miguel which is 2 tacos and a cheese enchilada with a side of rice and beans. The beef tacos had the freshest ingredients around but lacked a sauce which made it dry. The shell was tasty. The enchilada was flavorful but half the size of the tacos. (I finished it in three bites.) Unfortunately service was subpar. My wife didn't get the sides she ordered and we had to figure out on our own that we paid at the front after nobody came to our table to give us a check. Finally, the price was too high for the food, the quality of service, and the amount of food. These are the reasons I gave it 2 stars. I literally left hungry and paid $24 (before taxes) for my platter of food.
