    Frankie Q.

    I mean where do I really even begin?? No really, where do I? Coming into the restaurant it isn't clear if you seat yourself or go to the counter, you have to figure it out yourself. There are 2 menus, 1 highlighting more brunch style items and the other more lunch and dinner options. My order: 2 chalupa combo (rice & refried beans and drink). You choose your own meat(s), I chose brisket. I rate it 2/5... first issue I got toastadas not chalupas, the flavors were very plain. The jalapeños did the heavy lifting. The brisket was strangely sweet, I didn't enjoy it. Also it was cut wrong(with the grain), every bite drug out the entire piece of meat. Hubby got the 2 taco combo (same as above) he also chose brisket (it was sweet). 1/5, sweet brisket is not his cup of tea. The tacos came with lettuce, tomato and avocado on the side. Where is the cilantro and onion!? To complete our order we tried the churros which were super hot fresh and sweet but the caramel sauce made them one note and easy to get tired of. We also tried the red and greens sauces, neither had much flavor or heat. The meal itself underwhelming. While the ambiance was that of a sports bar or bar and grill it wasn't overly loud. The music was low but loud enough to enjoy. The TVs played several different sports networks. The service was typical, with a nice cashier who answered my questions super nicely. Our food did come out in a timely manner but I would've waited any extra amount of time if that meant the food tasted better. I want to say something more positive but the whole meal lacked love.

    I always stop by after going to the dentist. I usually get the spicy fried chicken taco but I feel like they changed the recipe. So this time I got the grilled fish and the shrimp mango habanero tacos. The fish taco was good with the jalapeno ranch. I had to cut the fish in half though. It was just too much. The shrimp tacos were very spicy! And I added the habanero salsa . I also got the disaster queso which never lets me down.

    When I visit my family in Dallas we always have a taco night. Because...Texas! This is a good spot for that. They have tasty $7 margs and a delicious selection of tacos. This night I ordered the pork taco and the street taco with chicken. They were both delicious. They are amply stuffed with really good meat and one can find a variety of hot sauces and crema for toppings. The salsa is delicious and the chip basket is self-filled as many times as one would like. Taco Joint is a solid place for Tex-Mex!

    I've been here like a hundred times. The food is consistent. Delicious and reasonably priced. Nachos and tacos are all good. Points on their jalapeño ranch dressing. It's always full of people.

    Love the Taco Joint I frequently go to the Peak location this was my first time going to Lakewood and I will say I requested extra steak and didn't get it but was charge. May try again on a less busy day

    The breakfast burrito with sausage was disgusting. It didn't come with salsa and the insides just crumbled and fell out.

A low-lit lounge and bar, a space that feels intimate and yet, the music playing from the speakers (not too loud, just there) gives it an expectant energy, too. It's the kind of place you enjoy being because it feels like an experience. I'm going to have a unique, well-made drink tonight in a cool spot. The cocktail menu seems like it's updated every season or so, the bartenders/creators' names featured on the cover. Very cool. Will definitely be back.

    I tend to get overly descriptive but I'll TRY to keep this short and sweet…read more Hostesses- always have golden etiquette. Charming, polite, respectful, and pleasant to talk to. You know how sometimes you'll go to a nice place and the hostesses are catty, rude and have close to zero manners? That won't happen here! Even with their high class service, the bartenders expertise in all types of spirits, and the craftsmanship of each and every cocktail + plate. Anna was the hostess during the time i went who took my number down to add me to the wait list. She was soft spoken (welcoming with just that) and not to mention, GORGEOUS. S/o as well to Tanner for always being so accommodating and making every visit a 10/10 as well as the bartenders/cocktail peeps. if you guys are ever looking for a drink with a side of fabulous caviar, come here. enjoy the scene, the decor, and the whimsical vibes this place provides

Live music on certain evenings, with what little bit we got to enjoy being ideal for the space and environment. If you want a varied and inspired menu, and great vegetarian offerings too) this is your place. Lounge Here is a brilliant gem among East Dallas Lakewood dining offerings! We are heading there again next week. Five stars and to ten more years! Thanks "LH!"

I asked for his recommendations, everything he recommended was super yummy.. I started with some deviled eggs! The splash of hot sauce complimented the eggs so well and the crunch of the bacon put a nice twist to it. I really enjoyed the filling it wasn't too sweet nor did it have a lot of extra ingredients. 10/10 for sure!! For my entree I went with the blackened snapper, I subbed mashed potatoes instead of the potato salad. I'm very particular about my potato salad I was too nervous to try it. After speaking with Paula I wish I would've tried it. No worries I'll come back just to try it. This snapper is good some of the best blackened snapper I've had. It was so moist and flaky the cream sauce made it even better. Chefs kiss for sure! 10/10 For dessert I had the flourless chocolate cake, if you're a chocolate lover this will be your go to. Although it says cake to me it had more of like a fudge texture. The raspberry sauce really helped out with cutting the sweetness of the chocolate. The restaurants fairly small, they have a huge selection of alcohol. I wasn't able to order a drink I was still sobering up from the night before. The bartender I didn't get her name she was super pleasant and helpful as well! I'll most definitely recommend lounge here

    My friend and I came here totally unplanned since they opened a lounge downstairs called La Mina…read more The restaurant is attached to a hotel, so it has that kind of feel. We were seated and taken care of by our server, who was so sweet and very patient. We ordered drinks. I had to get tea because I was chilly. Outdoor seating at night isn't the greatest because it was very dark, so we stayed inside. The food was exceptional. The herbs they use are picked from their local garden, and the food is incredibly fresh. I ordered the marinated lamb kebabs and Hummus. By the way, their hot tea is fantastic. I highly recommend it but the food was also delicious. The only thing is that the Hummus was very salty but still delicious. The dessert is the best part of the meal. They do change their menu frequently. We hot a chocolate cremeux mousse with chocolate cake - it was soooo good! 10 out of 10! Everything was fantastic and I'll be back!
