    Chicken quesadilla, chicken tortilla soup, extra chips
    Jenny T.

    lf you're alone don't order the half pound bag of chips cuz I had no idea that was going to be a family size when I got that for takeout lol. And apparently both my entrees came with chips too because there were two smaller bags originally and smaller salsas. The quesadilla was really good-- just on the greasy side. The soup was also really flavorful, loved all the vegetables in it-- came with, again, way too many tortilla strips haha. The guac side portion was a bit small. The salsa was a little too spicy for me. I've been staying at the hotel around the corner for many visits, surprised I've never made it here! Will be back.

    Been coming here for awhile. Falling in love with John Luke at the bar. Very attentive. My husband and I always share the pic 3 combo. Tamale, beef puffy taco & cheese enchilada. Delicious. Tonight we tried the queso, it was great as well.

    Pulido's is back! With the Westland group resurrecting part of the franchise, we opted to stop in on a Saturday for lunch to check things out. Good news is, if you were wanting the Pulido's you grew up with, then this is it! With Covid, I realized I had taken too many staples and hallmarks of the local food scene for granted. The same places you frequented in your neighborhood time and time again and only in a blip they were suddenly gone. So it really is nice to see places like Pulido's being brought back. Just as expected, we were greeted with speedy service and some chips and salsa. The Wife and I both opted for a Pulido's hallmark, some puffy tacos. They were delicious. Even better was having restaurant ownership that actually cares about keeping places like Pulido's around, not just in name, but the old buildings as well. So we plan on making sure we continue to support ventures such as this to get more classic, simple, neighborhood Tex-Mex...and perhaps a margarita or two at the bar.

    This place is in an odd location. Not that it's bad just wouldn't expect to see a Mexican place where it is. It's walking distance to my hotel so decided to give it a go. On the outside it looked dead. Man that was a rope a dope. Place was jumpin'. Lots of people and was a 30 minute wait. The host got me into the bar at a table so I could get in and get out. And here is where it went downhill. Ordered a guac to start and a lunch quesadilla. Simple. Quick. You'd think. I waited around 15 minutes for my guac, and probably 40 minutes total for my quesadilla. Then when they brought it out, they didn't bring the rice and beans until 5 minutes after. But by that point I was almost full from th chips and guac. They bar was in disarray, they missed food for some tables. Then got the orders wrong for others. Wrong things on the wrong check. Etc. Once I got my food it was okay, nothing to write home about but filled me up and I went to the hospital. I might try them again on an off time, because they just didn't handle the lunch rush well.

There's plenty of seating as well as bar seating. I've been there on a weekend night when a Mariachi band was playing. That made the experience even more enjoyable.

Both were fresh and very delicious. I had the Quesadilla dinner, Mexican rice and Charro beans are included. I must say, I have NEVER had better Charro Beans. My family had the Enchilada Dinner, the Carnitas Dinner, and Cowboy Salad. I can't finish this review without mentioning their Frozen Peach Margarita with sugar, no salt...THE. BEST. I. EVER. HAD.

We always start with a cup of queso, which never disappoints. Some of my favorites have been the carne guisada, beef chimichangas, and camarones al mesquite. My husband usually orders the tacos al carbon, enchilada dinner, or the beef quesadilla dinner, and he's enjoyed all of them. Their margaritas are also really good and pair well with the food. The restaurant has plenty of seating, though it can still get pretty busy during peak times. Even when it's full, it's still comfortable enough to have a good conversation without feeling too crowded or loud. Overall, it's a reliable neighborhood spot with good food, good drinks, and consistently solid service.

The outdoor seating is so charming lush plants, colorful flowers, and a peaceful fountain that makes you want to stay awhile. I had the chicken fajita bowl, and it was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. The margaritas were definitely tempting but I behaved and stuck with water... next time for sure. Only minor thing, there was water on the floor going into and inside the bathroom, which could be a slipping hazard. A "wet floor" sign would definitely help. Beautiful atmosphere, relaxed vibe.

    We were recently in Ft Worth and decided to give Joe T Garcia's a try. We had been about 15 years…read moreago and were not impressed then. But we always hear people talk about how great Joe T's is so we thought maybe we just an isolated bad experience 15 years ago. But this time, it was even worse. Maybe people don't speak unfavorably out of fear of being shamed for not praising this "institution"? We arrived on a Wednesday at 5:30 so fortunately our unpleasant experience was not further worsened with a wait. The patio is still very beautiful and umbrellas were positioned to provide ample shade. But the fly situation was very annoying and could probably be helped with the spinning devices on tables or fans spread throughout the patios. The beauty of the patio doesn't compensate enough to endure the flies. The service started out good with waters, chips/salsa brought instantly. But within 15 minutes the service rapidly declined as more customers were seated. It was very tedious to the point of annoying to get refills on our drinks. Literally within 2-3 minutes of ordering we asked our waitress to switch one of the fajita orders from chicken to beef. She initially said "oh I'm sorry but I JUST put the order in". We looked puzzled and said "ok then it shouldn't be a problem changing it?" She went on to explain that she would add the beef to our table and just switch the chicken order to another table next to us who ordered chicken that she had not put in yet. All of that sounded very bizarre but the food was correct when it was delivered our table. At the time the plates were brought we requested a side of sour cream but it didn't come. After 5-10 minutes we spotted our server and requested it from her. But we still never got the sour cream. As I was paying the tab my daughter noticed that we were charged for an extra chicken fajita. So even though the server got the beef fajita added right after we ordered, she didn't take the chicken off the bill. She adjusted it once we pointed out the error. The food was the biggest disappointment out of all of it. I will always give grace to sub par service or atmosphere if the food is great. I say this with the utmost sincerity, I've had more flavorful beef and chicken at Chipotle. The chicken was so dry and served in big chunks which made it even tougher to chew. I seriously could not detect a hint of any seasoning, not even salt. It was very hot but not like the traditional sizzling fajita hot, more like it had been sitting in a heating pan or under heat lamps. For way too long. The beef was a tad bit easier to chew than the chicken but just as bland. The queso that we ordered tasted like canned cheese sauce watered down with chicken or vegetable broth and a tablespoon of pico added. The portion sizes of the entrees, the tortillas, the pico, the guacamole were all very generous. It's just a shame that it doesn't taste good.

They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter. The drink station has cane sugar based sodas; it's a bit heavy on the foam, but otherwise good. We opted for the birria pizza, a couple of cups of pozole, and a side of elote. Everything was solid. The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
