Casa del Senador - 2nd floor Bar

I found out about Casa del Senador through a recommendation from my cousin. I must say this place…read moreis really cool. I love when restaurants restore and repurpose historic houses and buildings. It's definitely something we love and appreciate back home in San Antonio. My immediate observation is that the place is beautiful and I love the old pictures of Piedras Negras on the walls. The menu is great and I loved the eggs Benedict I ordered. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because the service was lacking. Our server was not friendly nor attentive. I'd love to go back and try more of their menu. Their chips and salsa are amazing, btw.

Best restaurant within 150 miles. Hands down. If you're…read morevisiting Eagle Pass or Piedras Negras I HIGHLY recommend this place. It's a must visit when in the area. I had heard a lot of great things about this place online and I finally got the time to come try it out. WOW. From the moment you enter you're blown away from how they've kept a lot of the original materials. The restaurant served many purposes such as house, President palace (city hall), among other things many years ago. When you walk in you see the elegance from furniture, to lighting, to decoration. They offer lower level, upper level, private rooms, and outdoor terrace. Beautiful! Usually restaurants offer chips and salsa. This place offered corn bread fritters with two different salsas. The corn bread fritters have small pieces of chicharrón (pork grinds) if you've never had them, I highly recomendable them! They have a bunch of different dishes that fit everyone's budgets. I was craving seafood so I got the Pulpo En Adobo, it's octopus grilled over fire and glazed in an adobo sauce. The dish comes with mashed potatoes and Spinach and Peanut salad. I replaced the mashed potatoes for Jazmin rice. I gulped this down with a fresh lemonade made to order! Everything tasted delicious! Once again, I can't stress this enough! This place is a must!

our last day in town and wanted to explore. we were looking for somewhere to hang out, eat and just…read morehave a good time. we came across this spot and thought it was worth to try. As soon as we entered the vicinity, my jaw dropped literally because it looked super cute and festive. The place is literally a mini San Miguel, Mexico. Anyhow, we were greeted warmly by the host and eventhough it looked busy we were escorted almost immediately to our table. We were greeted kindly by our server and was handed the menu. They have plenty of interesting drinks and cocktails, appetizers, entree and many Many more on their menu. We finally ordered our drinks and foods and was excited for them. The ambiance of this place were incredible. It has such a clean surroundings and pleasant atmosphere. Our drinks, chips and salsa and entree came with the right amount of wait time and we were ready to explorge. Everything was on point and we had a very appetizing and delicious meal as well as a wonderful time.

I've eaten here a couple of times when I visit Eagle Pass…read more Both times have been the same! Great service, very good food and leaves you wanting to come back next time! I had the fajitas (beef and chicken) this time. They were very good! I really like the 3 dips they bring with chips before the meal. As my waiter told me, "the one on the right will make your tongue sweat!" All three are good and he's right, one is really hot to me. The restaurant is beautiful! When you come in the door, you see the dessert case and if you're lucky , you might hear the waiter/waitress's sing Happy Birthday to someone. When in Eagle Pass, Parrilla De San Miguel should be on your list to visit! Go get Full

I ordered the enchiladas rojas con queso panela. And I've been craving to eat them again ever…read moresince. Their beans are heaven in a bowl!!! So homey. Image your grandma's best patch of beans. You remembering how good she makes them? Now forget about them because these are better!!!! They're the perfect amount of spicey, with a flawless flavor that makes you go mmmm. Now, my husband ordered an order of mini tacos. 5 come in an order. He chose the mixto order. Which means he was able to pick five different types of meat to go into each taco (one flavor in each). * Sirloin, bistec, chicken, etc.* He was in love!!! He was in such a good mood after eating these tacos, I took advantage of his mood and ordered my whole wish list from Amazon. The green sauce on the right of his tacos in the pic is sensational as well. If I wasn't a Christian, I would have put that bottle right into my purse. The only grievance I have is that their tea is flavored. But I'm basic so that might not bother most people. But it sure did break my heart that they don't have plain regular sweet tea. And the service needs work. They're not rude what so ever, they just forget you're there sometimes. Ladies if you're in the Eagle pass area and been wanting a new purse.....bring your husband here and you'll have that purse looking captivating on your arm in no time. Ps, they have wifi is you can order it while waiting for the check.

We try to order from here when we're in town and generally the food is pretty good. We usually…read moreorder the family parrilla and the meat and chicken are good. This time we ordered the green enchiladas and a ribeye steak. The enchiladas were good but the steak was blue! I asked for medium well and this thing was still mooing. We ordered takeout so I had to cook it myself just to make it edible. The plate also came with a half baked potato and it was just that "half baked". Most of it was still raw. Very disappointed.

This place was recommended for authentic Mexican food. Please keep in mind there are so many…read moreregions in Mexico that one persons authentic food could be way different from another's. I found this place with no issues but parking was another story. I really didn't know where to park so I just parked next to the garage and thought that would work. lol. It did. I walked in and didn't know if I should seat myself so I just stood there and then I was told to sit anywhere. I chose to sit at a booth but after I got settled I realized I should have sat at a table because the table at the booth was too low and it slanted, sloped to the left. As I was looking around I noticed all the booths were like that. I decided to get the buffet. It was quick and I could see the food and decide accordingly. There was a good selection but I didn't see enchiladas. . . well what I think of as a traditional enchilada with cheese and sauce. I choose carnitas, picadillo, potato taquitos, caldo de rez, rice, carne guisado, and not sure if it was a taco or chalupa, and a lemonade. I didn't eat all this lol it was more so a tasting menu. Everything I had tasted good but I was missing that cheesy enchilada. I also had some chips and salsa. . . Red and a green guacamole type. They make homemade tortillas so I asked for two of each. I had so much food that I ended up taking the flour tortillas with me and ate them the next day. Staff were very attentive and the drink was sooo big they never had to come back to fill it. I didn't realize the buffet was $20. . . but if you can eat then it's worth it. I also didn't realize they had a menu to order from. If I'm in the area I'd give it another try.

If I could give 0 stars, I would. The food was…read morehorrible--bland, lacking variety, and definitely not worth the $14.99 price for a single buffet. No pancakes, nothing kid-friendly, and no refills on drinks. Overall a very disappointing experience. I won't be coming back.
