    Gumbo

    Definitely a must if your in area. Gumbo was fresh and loaded with proteins of all types. Keeping in mind true gumbo was used to clean out frig. Shrimp was not what I expected but surprisingly really good. Tea was take home great. Staff was uncomfortable waiting on old white guy but she was superb

    Tostada de Ceviche for 2

    My boyfriend was craving ceviche, so I did my Yelp scrolling and landed on Seafood Shack! I've always passed it driving down Northwest Hwy but never stopped to try, it didn't disappoint! The inside is so pretty and bigger than I thought, and the servers were nice and attentive. I believe they speak mostly spanish but had no problem understanding us "no sabo kids" lol. The ceviche tasted very fresh and it was seasoned really well. I loved the big cucumber slices with tajin as well, my boyfriend and I finished it quick! The fried shrimp was so good and the fries were tasty, all seasoned well. My boyfriend got the big fajita plate and it came with rice and all the fixings; so delicious! Overall we'd definitely come back and probably with friends! We didn't try the drinks but they looked sooo good, a big bar/cocktail menu is a plus!

    Shrimp and sausage boil!!!! So good and worth it every time.

    I recommend this place 10/10 every time. Food was on point as always. The ambiance is perfect. Not so loud you can't talk.

    I've only been here twice but each time was fantastic! Our server was a younger gentleman both times and he was super friendly. He was patient with our larger group and offered many suggestions. This time we got the Fried Calamari with Fried Jalapeños. It is divine! They cornmeal batter is amazing and does not slide off the calamari. I also like that each ring was fresh. I've been to places where it was overly fried and almost leathery.....you won't get that here. I also ordered the shrimp Flautas which were a suggestion from my previous visit. They hit every spot! The shrimp were fresh and it was wrapped in cheese and a little bit of jalapeños. I didn't find it spicy at all so maybe take a chance and try it? Also, it comes with rice, the menu doesn't say so but I was able to ask and have fried corn nuggets as a substitute. My mom ordered the large Caldo de Mariscos (seafood soup). I think it had fish, squid, and shrimp (head on). The bowl was massive! She ordered a large thinking it would be a bowl size vs a cup size like normal restaurants. She said it was worth every penny. We ended up having to take a good portion home. It took two tall containers to fit what was left. I forgot to add that the drinks are pretty strong so make sure you order some food :) And the vibes are killer! They were playing 2010-2022 reggaeton. Check the menus for their daily specials. I think happy hour is all day or at least that's what the server said on the tequila night I think. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

    A random recommendation from the Embassy Hotel Management and I wandered into absolute perfection. Best ceviche I have ever enjoyed. The Cheese & Shrimp Enchiladas were bathed in a sauce that is world class. I cannot recommend this gem enough.

    I've lived in Dallas for ten years, and I've never visited E-bar. I'm from ATX and the drinks…read moreremind me of Baby A's (IYKYK)! They were so cold, strong, and smooth. E-bar might have just won the spot for the best TexMex chile relleno in my book (I was a die hard Chuy's fan before they quit selling them). The beans clearly have the pork grease (yum) and the rice was delicious. Even though the place was packed, we were told it'd be a 30ish minute wait, we were seated in less than 20 minutes. Our server came out quickly, brought us drinks, so attentive! We'll definitely return! What a fun little spot!

The staff and other patrons were all enjoying the game together--there's definitely a good community that comes to this restaurant regularly. As for the food, the portions are GENEROUS. Each guest gets their own dipping bowl of chips and salsa. We shared an appetizer and two meals, and still had plenty of leftovers. I highly recommend the fajita nachos, which come loaded with toppings. Their drinks are also very strong, so plan accordingly! With all the fun and food, I accidentally left my wallet and did not realize until the next day. The staff held the wallet in their lost and found, made sure to ask verifying questions, and asked me to confirm if all my belongings were still in the wallet before leaving. For this exceptional service, food, and vibes, I highly recommend.

    It had been several decades since my last visit to Mia's Tex-Mex, and since my wife and I were in…read morethe area, we decided to stop in. Wow--things have definitely changed! I remember when they were located further down Lemmon Avenue in a much smaller space. They've since moved uptown, and the new digs are beautiful and very inviting. After we were seated, our server, Ruben, greeted us with a warm smile. We were especially excited since we arrived just in time to catch their lunch specials--and there are plenty of great ones to choose from. We started with a couple of frozen margaritas and a cup of queso while browsing the menu. The margaritas were spot-on--not wimpy at all, with just the right kick. And the queso? Absolutely outstanding--some of the best we've had in a long time. The salsa was excellent as well. My wife chose the lunch-sized chicken quesadillas, while I went with the #7 lunch special, which included a cheese taco, a chicken enchilada, and a beef enchilada topped with chili con carne. Our meals arrived after a short wait, and everything exceeded expectations. My wife was thrilled with the portion size--it was just right--and she was all smiles after her first bite. The chicken fajita meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. My lunch special hit the spot and delivered exactly what I was craving. We had a fantastic experience at Mia's Tex-Mex. Ruben took excellent care of us throughout our visit, and we'll definitely be back again soon!

Service could not have been better. Portions are generous. I will come back here again when I am in the area.

For an entree I had the Tempura Fried Fish Tacos. These were very good and the coleslaw served with them was very good- crunch and bright. Overall the food here is pretty solid.
