My pescado a Las brazas (which was not made over brazas but in an oven) was tender, plentiful, and covered in a delicious alfredo/Cajun style sauce. The soft yellowish rice was soft and soaked up the sauce nicely and the butter thick piece of bread was a nice compliment to the meal. The salad on the plate was watery and not served with dressing, only tarter sauce. Visually the plate was a hot mess, but flavor wise, it's something I would order again. My wife's coconut Shrimp was over cooked (blackened) and rubbery, but the flavor was there. The real low lights of the visit were the non-existent service from the mesera and the terrible conditions of the bathroom (looks on going and not recent) The server brought drinks once and dropped off the food, but never checked on us, refilled our drinks, or asked if anything else was needed. Overall, order the food "To-Go" and enjoy it at home.

Pocket Gem I'm…read morecalling this a pocket Gem because it's sort of hidden between a bunch of fast food restaurants on a busy street. Everything around is fast food, so if you are driving by fast you'd never realize it's even here. What a fantastic place! I can't say enough about how glad I am I came here. Very inconspicuous. You walk in and immediately feel like you're in a high-end, classy place. From the lights and decorations you feel like you're in a special place. Everyone is dressed up, but relaxed and having fun. It's s white cloth type of place, and it was completely packed. There were several birthday celebrations while I was here, on a Wednesday night, and they had a solo singer playing the guitar and singing very beautiful Mexican music. I didn't understand a word of it, but he sang do beautifully and with his heart, you could feel emotion. There's also an elegant bar. When I walked in, as I was alone, I said I would sit at the bar but it was empty. I wanted to sit in the main room near the singer where everyone else was dinning. I saw so many great pictures of food here on Yelp and knew I couldn't try just one thing so I opted to get several small dishes. I got the tortilla soup, even though it was called something else in Spanish, and I got the ceviche appetizer. Bit were delicious. So they bring this plate of chips, salsa and dip to the table, and I've never had better than here. The chips were freshly made here, the salsa was delicious, and the dip was some kind of mix of beans and mole or something. I'm not explaining it well enough but it was really good. I can't say enough and I would recommend everyone try it, especially as a date night or a group of family or friends. Fantástico!

I rate a good seafood place by how their fried fish is. I ordered the Fried Fish Plate and was really disappointed. The fish is literally 1/4-1/3 of the thickness of a regular fish fillet anywhere else. There was more breading than fish. The fillet is ultra-thin. The side are ok and cant complain, but what really pisses me off is you ask for a glass of water and they bring you a bottle of water to charge you for it. Also they want to sell you the lemonade so they can charge you $7 for every refill. Maybe also if they could lower the volume of music. I dont know what it is in Laredo that everyone wants to listen to loud music when theyre eating. WTF! Wont be back.

We also each ordered a side of fried rice which we should had only ordered one and split it. I got medium spicy and he ordered spicy . The medium was plant hot for me. At first I thought I wasn't going to be enough food, but halfway through I realized I had ordered plenty and I am a fat guy who likes to eat. The meals with tea were approximately $35.00 each which wasn't bad for what we had. Next time o returned to Laredo I would definitely think about returning.

How is it that they miss my order when they had 20 plus minutes to prepare it. And it was not lunch or dinner rush. You need to hire competent employees. I had ordered an extra order of Charro beans and I got refried. Do the words charro and refried sound alike? No. They do not. And then the food had this strange aftertaste to it. I'm hoping I don't get sick from eating this trash! Do better or just don't do it!! Not everyone in town is complacent enough to give this trash heap of a place a 5 star rating. This is ridiculous. I am not coming back here. And in all honesty we all need to stop making these badly run and expensive places rich. We deserve better than this trash. Don't settle for barely edible food and bad service. Demand more from these uncaring owners. And I'm includeding all local restaurants. And looking at the reviews the owners don't seem to care what happens at their business as they don't bother to reply to any comments.

After waiting 5 minutes in the front to be seated, we proceeded to locate a table on our own.

The menu online looks spectacular and had a lot of interesting dishes. I was super excited. I saw that they were open late and I was also very happy about this because my meal was after work. I arrived at 9:30 walked in the side entrance and saw a post hunched over and squatted down, looking at her iPhone. I also saw another employee leaning on the host stand talking to her. He didn't greet me neither did she until I walked to the front of the house stand. She got up from her crouch position and said can I help you? I was surprised to see what she was wearing, an oversized hoodie with some type of logo on it, which was not an appropriate thing to wear, and it did not match the other employee that were more crisp. I said dining for one and grabbed a menu and slid it across the host stand out of pure laziness. She slumped her way over with the menu hanging on her left side and sat me at a table. Wow what a lousy first impression for a restaurant that I was so excited to visit. A server came over gave me a menu and brought me water. Disappointed to see that the menu was completely different from the menu that I saw online. No unique dishes and the variety was not great. However, I was there and felt I'd give it a chance. A server that was at the bar entering tickets or something, kept looking over at my table, but no one ever acknowledged me after I was seated. I waited for about 10 minutes until someone realized I need assistance. The server finally came over. He was polite to check my order served my meal left me to be on my own to check on me one time, but it certainly wasn't a two minute check when he should to see if my meal was to my satisfaction. My plates were not cleared and I had to ask for the check.. the food was OK. I had the salmon. Nothing spectacular. risotto was uneventful. Got my check and left. No goodbye, no thank you for coming in no stand out service. As a restaurant professional in California, I can't figure out if it's just a Texas thing or they rate everything high or this restaurant truly is deserving of its accolades..

But without it the filets themselves a bit on oily and greasy side but again way better than everything in town by a long shot. I'd say Mariscana has best ceviche in town but this is a close second. I'll be back a lot. I hope the town makes this place survive as somebody who's eaten all around the country this is great good and a small business that cares. Try this place out!

So we finish our meal and our bill was higher than usual. So we asked up front why we were getting charged more? The Manager said Oh you must of ordered the "Combo"????? We said Nooooo we ordered the "Lunch Special" and the manager said why didn't you say something? And we said We did! After arguing with the manager blaming us for the mistake , I just said screw it I'll pay and you can take the tip out of the bill!
