    Taco Ocho
    Robert P.

    When in Texas, this is our go to for tacos and nachos. They use queso on their nachos so they are nice and juicy with lots of meat. Most places like to use cheddar cheese on their nachos so you end up you a block of chips glued together with cheese - yuck! My wife loves the skinny margaritas and claims that they are better than anything back home in Florida. The sauces are nice and spicy and I really miss that. Hot in Florida = Mild in Texas. You forget what good is when you cannot get it.

    If you are looking for authentic Tex-Mex, this probably isn't your place. But the food has really good flavor, thumbs up for their chips and salsa, and the staff is always super friendly which is a plus. I typically stop here for breakfast tacos, but also recommend their brisket and jalapeño pulled pork tacos for dinner.

    Right before closing I was served fresh taco plate! The brisket, rice and black beans were prepared well! I took the other taco home. Evan was phenomenal with his service as well! Clean establishment.

    Shame on me for two reasons...1) for taking so long for reviewing this restaurant and 2) for taking so long to try their brunch! We love Taco Ocho. It's super close to our home, and it offers a wide variety of Latin menu choices. It is owned by a local family and always has wonderful service. The food is favorable and delicious. They offer lots of vegan and gluten free choices. So the brunch...OMG! So many breakfast choices. I finally decided on the huevos rancheros, and my meal was delicious. They have lots of brunch drink specials...including $4 mimosas and an amazing Prickly Pear Margarita - which is as tasty as it is pretty! Highly recommend Taco Ocho for any time of the day!

    This may be my new favorite taco place. A friend told me it was very good. It is right next to Market Street, which is my grocery store of choice, when I grocery shop. So, I am near it all the time but had never been. I finally asked a friend to meet me there for lunch. It was an excellent decision. We both enjoyed it. The waiter was very pleasant and offered great service. He checked on us every so often, without hovering, and improved our dining experience. We each got the two taco meals. The rice, refried black beans and corn side was excellent. Black beans are always my first bean choice. My friend loved the Latin Love and Pork tacos that she had. I had the grilled fish taco, which was one of the best fish tacos I have ever had. And, since I will be visiting Colombia soon, I chose the Coco Connection and loved it!

    Overpriced and average quality. Tacos were a bit messy and fell apart. Ok but nothing special for the hefty price.

I've had Hispanic meats that tasted straight up like a salt brick, but this was good. A good salty. The salad and rice were delicious, wow, I ate that up. Complimentary nachos came with three dips. The salsa verde was perfect for me because it wasn't spicy at all! It was delicious. I came alone, so I guess the server didn't bother me a lot out of respect. I like that. It was good for me, and I could always wave them down whenever I needed. They kind of have an "open kitchen" so you can see what they're doing. The servers and chefs have a good relationship as far as I could see. All hardworking staff doing honest work. Everything I had was delicious and service was hospitable. I would come here again. What a great night. Gracias!

    We have been meaning to try Gabriela & Sofia's for some time now, as we have heard wonderful…read morethings. And I will say that the food is delicious...so flavorful and tasty. The service was also great! My husband was disappointed that there were not any beers on tap (bottles only), but they had a delicious mixed drink menu. However, we were very disappointed in the atmosphere. We seated towards the back of the restaurant in direct line of sight of behind the "bar" where an employee's child was playing and a great view of ketchup bottles (who wants ketchup in a Mexican restaurant). Gabriela & Sofia's is in the $$ to $$$ price range, and at this price point ambiance should be continuous throughout the restaurant. Our unfortunate seating location sadly put a damper on the overall experience.

I didn't want to write them off completely before giving them a second chance though, so I came back with my family for an early Mother's Day dinner. On a busy Friday night they were fully prepared for the rush. Fresh chips and salsa arrived at our table just as we did. Happy hour hadn't ended yet, so we ordered a round of margaritas that also showed up quickly. Already this was an improvement over the previous visit. It was when we got our entrees that I was reminded of why I originally lost interest in this place. My chicken and cheese enchilada meal was about as average as it gets. My husband and sons had the same impression of their meals. To be clear, there was nothing wrong with any of the food. At the same time, there was nothing special about it either. Another thing that didn't help the situation was when I asked for their spiciest salsa they brought me a tiny cup that contained maybe a couple tablespoons of it. I didn't realize until the bill came that they charge extra for it. Furthermore, it was barely hotter than their regular salsa. Had I known all that, I would never have bothered with the request. Now, I have no problem with garden variety Tex Mex as long as it's priced accordingly, but I expected more here due to their higher prices. Fortunately, there's a Tex Mex place on practically every street corner and Mi Dia isn't the only game in town.

Matt our excellent server has a great sense of humor and welcoming personality. So much that we had to chat with the Manager, Bobby about him. The rib eyed steak - medium rare was scrumptious and the sides: mushrooms, baked potatoes & green beans cooked perfectly. Compliments to their chef/s! With what's happening in the world, the steaks are a little bit on the *ozempic thinner side but we still highly recommend because of the quality. Can't wait to bring our good friends from Arlington, down this way again. We drove over 30 minutes. We came to celebrate life! We left with a happy tummy, an awesome night full of smiles and laughter. Thanks y'all Elsie & Dr Johnson Thequeenofscalp The Floater Doctor

    Tried 1845 for the first time and I'm honestly mad I'm just now discovering it…read more I'm a picky eater, so when I say EVERYTHING was good... I mean it. I started with the poblano meatballs and wow, so flavorful, perfectly seasoned, almost had that grilled taste . For drinks, I had a lemon drop martini and it did not disappoint. For my meal, I ordered the chicken fried chicken and baby... BEST I've ever had. The crust was seasoned perfectly, not too hard, and the chicken was juicy. I also tried the smothered chicken, just as good. And dessert?! Peach cobbler with a snickerdoodle cookie crust... hands down the best I've ever had. No notes. Shoutout to our waitress Heather, she was so sweet, attentive, and gave great recommendations. The manager Chris also came by a few times to check on us, which I really appreciated. 10/10 experience. I will definitely be back and telling everyone about this place!
