    The food and service were amazing! Tortillas & chips tasted homemade. Beautiful artwork everywhere. Patio area has fire pits & an amazing vibe!

    Alcohol
    Yocelyn R.

    I had a great overall experience! I liked the fact that security checks people's bags. It's a good safety precaution some places don't enforce, especially when alcohol is involved. The food was delicious, and the drinks had me oh so faded. Dj was LITT. I was lit. We were lit. I'm still amazed the center stage spins. Twas a pawsome experience, I definitely recommend going with some friends.

    Beef fajitas for one
    Dorothy L.

    Well, after one of our tournaments, we were looking for a place for all of us to go eat and we stumbled upon this beautiful restaurant. It's out on I 45 and it was the old Joe's Crab shack. As far as the looks of this restaurant. It is gorgeous. Lots of seating indoors and outdoors. A beautiful bar. The service was very good. The waiters waitresses host, etc. they were all so very very nice. There was about 10 of us. We mainly ordered the Mexican food - the fajitas and flautas and quesadillas with the beans and rice and pico de gallo. Our beef / chicken fajitas for one was plenty for the two of us. The chicken was very flavorful. The beef was pretty tender. The charro beans were so good. They were flavored so well. The rice was good. The pico de gallo left a little to be desired but they did put a pepper that they grilled on top of the fajitas and let me tell you it was hot. There was definitely a kick behind it. One of the ladies got the salmon and she said it was excellent. I took a picture of the top of the salmon plate but not from the side so you can't see that this salmon fillet is about 2 1/2 inches thick. It was a lot and she said it was flavored so well. The flautas were good. The quesadillas, they said the beef was very tender. A Friend got the enchiladas and he really really liked them . So the amount of food you get is a lot for the price. The prices are medium. They're not super expensive. There was a lady that came around took pictures of our table, and then she came back with them in a frame and offered for us to buy them for $20 apiece. So that's why they're taking your picture. We think this place is probably more known for their seafood. They have a lot and one of our guys said he will definitely be coming back to try the octopus. He said it looked really good. So, if you're in the mood for Mexican food and you're at I 45 go ahead and go by. Just the beauty alone the Murial of Selena and Freda are done so well. The patio has a humongous TV on it. So great for game days and race days things like that. Really good for large parties. I think we'll definitely go back.

    Fried fish

    This a review based on the food only. The vibes here are cool. It's a nice hangout restaurant for drinks only. I've came about 5 times now and no matter what I get the food is always over cooked or bland. So I just give up. I'll be coming here for frozen margaritas only. I got the ceviche tostada which was probably the only good thing on the menu. The wings are okay too. I got fried octopus and it was almost too burned (fried hard) to eat. I got the fish with rice and French fries and again super crispy extra fried and it had no flavor. I won't be coming to oder food here anymore. But I'll be here for the party scene.

    Tamarindo margarita! Yum!

    This was such an amazing experience! We have driven by here before and just today, we chose to stop. I highly recommend this place! Everything was delicious!

    2 classic (one small one large) and 1 guava margarita

    The food was amazing and the service as well. We got a mix of food including sushi appetizers, enchiladas, the Mexican fries. Everything was delicious

    Micheladas were delicious!

    Oysters were so fresh and flavorful! You gotta try the ones with pico, avocado, and then add a lil lime oh my gooooodness you wont be disappointed! I ate those while sippin on my toxica felix - a slight sweet and spicy drink. Another good drink is the Guava Love, its fruity and very refreshing! The staff is great too super clean and always checking up on you!

    WoW! This place is amazing! It's beautifully decorated and their patio is beautiful! The Selena tribute is so gorgeous! Then go inside to see this huge dining area with plenty of tables to serve large or small groups. A well-stocked bar with plenty to choose from! The service is friendly and prompt! We were with a large group celebrating a birthday and the staff was on point with their service! We were waited on promptly and given great service. She brought our drinks, water, and food out fast despite us arriving late and adding our order in. Once the food came out, it was brought hot and fresh and OMG was it delicious! Those fajitas are so tasty and tender! Oh and if you visit on a Friday night, you're in for a real treat! A real BANDA comes through with all of the 25+ members playing horns, trumpets, and tubas! Oh, it's a sight and a wonderful sound to hear!

    So, there's potential here. Not sure how much, but as dad would say, it's got "good bones." I kept driving past on 45, thinking it looks pretty cool from the outside- and that continues inside, too, with large facial artwork with accents of neon lights on the walls. There's at least two dozen TVs surrounding the main dining room, and a big screen outside on the large patio. Hubs made the comment that this place probably doubles as a dance hall with the full-wall bar on the weekends, if you just moved the tables out of the way. They certainly have the sound system for it- with only three tables occupied, the tejano music is reverberating off every hard surface. The menu is tiny. And I mean, really. Tiny. Carnitas (street taco style) for both hubby and me. Along with quac to get us started. Food was ok. The guac had a nice flavor to it (but needed a dosing of pico de gallo, tbh). The carnitas were just ok, nothing to really write home about. I wish this place the best, and maybe a random Thursday evening (with a massive rainstorm brewing outside) isn't its best, but even with as cute as it looks outside, it just doesn't have the substance inside to bring me back. Womp. Womp.

    This is a new spot. Me and my sister went for lunch and was disappointed with the food. The server let us know it was happy hour time that ends at 2pm. Happy hour times are usually scheduled later in the day at other restaurants, but we did get to get margaritas for a good price. I asked if the Chile's rellenos will be fried and the server said yes, it comes with spicy sauce, and I asked the server to put the sauce on the side. When my order came out it was not fried, and the sauce was on the food. I was not offered to have it redone. The rice is very plain. The manager didn't come over to see if everything was good. The only good thing is that the restaurant has a good look and atmosphere.

    The scenery of this place alone is enough for you to want to try! The bright purple sign drew my sis and I in for lunch and the enchiladas for were delicious. However the shrimp salad , where the shrimp were immaculate was dryly Served with ranch. Server was attentive. Authentic bartenders making delicious drinks, one of the best piña coladas in the city! Pros: Authentic Mexican Menu in Spanish Ambiance is a cool Mexican vibe Mexican music played only Clean restrooms Plenty of seating and space Bar extends Scenery very nice Plenty of photo ops Pina colada Happy hour Cons: Needs to design a better cohesively designed menu Option to make the salad with a vinaigrette or lime ranch dressing.

They need to put a sign up on the tiny road so you don't pass it up. First I will say I came here for a baby shower in one of the private rooms they offer. I cannot comment on the service because I did not need any. I also cannot comment on the food; it was provided by the party. What I can comment on is the parking - it was absolutely horrible! And that is being kind. They had a few spaces available in a field but to get to those spaces you had to drive through a 5 foot hole that was at least 4 feet deep! Thanks but no thanks I don't do off roading! At 2pm this place was packed! There was a DJ, people everywhere, small children everywhere and quite a few dogs. All in all, I am giving the stars for private room because that is what my experience consisted of.

    Did not start out great...Super hard to find! Passed it several times. I've included a picture of…read morewhere to turn. The semi-off-roading experience driving up the long driveway did not reassure me that I had found the spot either. Limited parking spaces were even more limited due to giant potholes filled with water. I had to move my car because once I parked I couldn't get out without getting my shoes soaked. Venue itself is a huge warehouse space. Large shaded deck spans the building. Tables are picnic tables. Great airflow inside with large fans. There is a separate room attached to the large main hall with some high tops and foosball table. Live music this evening with local youth bands from School of Rock. Other touches around the room reinforced their community support (local art on the walls, silent auction for a charity). Great beer selection- B52 beers ranging from IPAs, Pils, Ale, coffee porter. I tried the Bishop Crackberry Cider- just enough sweetness and perfect for the summer night. Service was nice. Food is served outback from a food truck: They give you a buzzer so you don't have to wait around outside waiting for them to call your name. I shared a Chicken Vindaloo pizza with one other person. Portion size was perfect for 2 adults. Although it promised "tongue searing curry" it totally lacked spice. The Indian flavors were there though. Just don't promise me tongue searing- and it's ketchup level spicy. Thin crust was topped with chicken, Black Truffle Ricotta, Mozzerella, Basil- it was an unexpected exotic flavor to find at a traditional brewery.
