We loved the key lime pie (e.g., photo of pie from night before at Manhattan Heights) at Manhattan Heights Bar & Grill so much that we ordered it again to go from their sister restaurant, Thirty5ive Bar & Grill, the next day. It became a special treat for our family while visiting our Tía in home hospice--and one of her last, most joyful bites. Food and our family's recipes are at the heart of who we are, so hearing my Tía Emma call it "magnificent" meant everything. While, we didn't dine in, we noted the atmosphere struck the right balance of upscale bar and grill on our two visits. Please note, this place get packed on weekend nights. If you want to eat here on the weekend swing by from 4 to 5:30pm. read more

Thirty 5ive Tavern & Grill - Key Lime ‍ Pie - Steakhouses Near Me - El Paso, Texas

We arrived with a baby and the hostess immediately told us no high chairs. Ok no biggie yet my wife pointed out that they do have changing stations for babies in the restroom which is odd. Expectations and reality were nothing alike. As we were seated our waiter took 10 min to great us and then another 12 min to bring our drinks. I didn't think anything of it yet it was a precursor to the rest of our dinner. After he took our order our kids food came out in a very timely fashion but our two orders of salmon and one steak sandwich took 40 min to arrive at the table. What a ridiculous waste of my time because my sandwich was missing the fries ordered and our waiter thought nothing of it till I brought it up then he took another 10 min to bring my fries. All this while simultaneously forgetting the sauce for the salmon which also took another 10 min to bring out. The salmon was so dry it was tacky and stuck to your teeth. If you know the feeling you know it's bad. The rice that came underneath the salmon was crunchy and way undercooked. All while the waiter was like oh I can bring you free deserts for your wait all while I could only think about how I just wanted to leave. I was internally livid and exhausted but kept it to my self after seeing the owner or manager who we the guy with the white hair over at the bar enjoying a few alcoholic beverages meanwhile his restaurants service and waitstaff to the worst possible job they can. I saw the people who got the most attention and good service were all regulars sitting at the bar laughing it up with the manager/owner older guy. Why not make sure your restaurant is running smoothly and food is being delivered and prepared properly and stop trying to impress the regulars who most likely will show up either way. Any restaurant that is this unorganized and unmotivated is due to crappy management. All this and the waiter is like I'll comp you for the steak sandwich with a discount for the bad service and salmon which was a whopping $5. I don't want a discount I don't want free day old desserts I want good service and decent food. Discounts and free desserts will never fix the problem because it will always be a crutch for trashy customer service. How about stop drinking with the guests and whoop that staff into semi decent shape buy some high chairs and make sure your expo does a once over quality check on the food and time it takes to get to the table EVEN if that means stepping in and doing it yourself. The restaurant is dark the tables are sticky the whole place is very compact . Perfect and quite attractive after 5-6 wines for sure. I'm sure the food is outstanding after a few drinks as well . They gave us a $25 dollar gift card to return which if I could I'd give to the owner so he could experience the same horrible food and service we did. I wouldn't even give the gift card to someone I hated. This was one of the first times in a long time I didn't just let it slide because I understand all restaurants and people have bad days but this was exceptionally bad. If you are thinking it can't be that bad think again it absolutely can. The whole "I'm sorry we usually have awesome service and everyone loves our food it's probably just me and my family " is laughable . This isn't my first time here while visiting El Paso. The food is getting worse. read more

I feel a certain kind of way about this place. Pros Food was mostly good Service was almost spot on Steaks were great sized Lobster Mac and cheese was amazing Lobster bisque was fantastic Healthy pour on cocktails Cons Food took forever to come out each time Server while awesome also disappeared for large periods of time Steaks had little to no seasoning Music was way too loud Diaper changing stations in the bathrooms but no high chairs? Makes little sense Admin fee that's not disclosed and no explanation for what it's for This place is probably designed for a certain demographic and that's fine but don't advertise yourself as anything other than. read more

My wife and I were passing through the area looking for a place to eat after we struck out on two other spots and stumbled upon Thirty 5ive in Yelp. So very happy we did! Great old-school feel. Our bartender really knew her way around the cocktails! We ordered our food. My wife went for their chicken Caesar salad, while I opted for their filet and wrapped shrimp. I also ordered a side of sautéed mushrooms. Our meal was incredibly delicious! Almost forgot about the seafood gumbo as a starter. That was superb as well! Four thumbs up from us! Keep up the great work! read more

Very local steakhouse. It is almost hidden in an El Paso neighborhood, but it was PACKED on a Thursday night. My ribeye was cooked very well. It was a little fatty, which isn't a bad thing, but there were moments when I had to cut out a little too much. I sat at the bar, which was fun, but they needed a second bartender because the poor woman was running hard to serve the entire place. She made an excellent Manhattan, however. Clearly a local favorite. People knew each other and were fun to be around. I look forward to visiting again when I pass through El Paso. read more

We visited this establishment on a Friday Night. Food and service was very good, and all dishes were prepared correctly as ordered...and...they were delivered together at one time. This has become an issue at some restaurants. The Ambiance is pleasant and not "noisy". A very pleasant experience. For the Record: we only review outstanding and "lousy". we allow mediocre to take care of itself. read more

First time here, won't be the last. My wife picked this place as she was feeling like seafood and they have a respectable set of offerings. We started with the mussels which were very tasty however slightly fishy. We had the red fish, sea bass and seafood pasta. All entrees came with soup or salad. The salads were heavy on the veggies, light on the lettuce. The soup of the day was a southwestern seafood which was delicious. All of the entrees were very good and the red fish was also a little fishy. However, my wife is super sensitive to this and it didn't turn her off in the least. Our waiter was Claudio and he was great. Very accommodating and told me that if I didn't care for the soup, he would bring me something else. The key lime pie was HUGE and tasty and the crème brûlée was one of the best we have had. Overall, a very positive experience and we will likely be back next week. read more

I was in ELP for a work trip with a fellow coworker and we both really wanted some oysters and find this gem of a place. We came here around dinner time and they seemed pretty busy but the service was still great. We started off with a dozen raw oysters and they were so good that we had to get another round after ordering the scallops and fish tacos. The bacon wrapped scallops were really good as well. The fish tacos were good but I felt like there was just too much cabbage on it. I don't mind cabbage but it just seemed like too much that it was covering rest of the flavor from the taco. I would go back just for the oysters though. The oysters were really fresh and tasty. Our waiter was very nice and helpful with any questions we had. My coworker and I can't stop talking about the oysters. This place is worth this visit for sure. read more

My husband took me to this restaurant because Carlos a bartender and Server has always remembered his name and what he likes to drink and eat.

We went Saturday night at 5:00 to make sure we were able to get the Prime Rib for my wife (her favorite) for her birthday. She got the 16 oz and I ordered the 12 oz Ribeye with the loaded baked potato. Both were cooked medium rare and both were cooked and seasoned to PERFECTION! We have never had a better steak anywhere in town! They both were juicy, tender, full of flavor and melted in our mouth! We had the Seared Ahi Tuna (again, her favorite) and that, also, was cooked to perfection and accompanied by crisp cabbage, radicchio, wasabi sauce, and ginger. EXCELLENT! She had the seafood soup and I had the clam chowder, and were also delicious with plenty of shrimp, scallops , and fish in hers in a spicy seafood red soup, and mine had plenty of chunky clams (not overwhelmed by too many potatoes) in a decadent white creamy soup! And I had the Stella Artois draught, served ice cold, and stayed that way through the meal, and she had a Dirty (Tanqueray) Gin Martini with 3 olives, that was the best she had ever had. I had a taste and it was really really good! Our server, Oscar, was OUTSTANDING and brought the blow torch to the table and PERFECTLY AND AMAZINGLY curated my wife's Crem Brûlée, again, to PERFECTION! And it was excellently prepared, so creamy and decadent, not too rich and not too sweet, just right! Oscar was more than attentive all night long and took care of us in a most charming and professional manner! Needless to say, our entire evening and meal was AWESOME, AMAZING, and OUTSTANDING! The restaurant is quaint, small, but not too small, perfect for a "get to know you" vibe, with enjoying music, cozy ambiance, wood floors, tables around the bar, just enough to give you that "where everybody knows your name" vibe! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND "35 Tavern Bar & Grill" for your next night out, date night, special occasion, or just somewhere to go for a great meal in an awesome place! We plan on coming back soon, and again, and again because this place has easily now become our favorite restaurant with the BEST STEAK IN TOWN! We are so glad we came here! You will be too! Make it your next night out! read more

It was okay. Went on a Sunday evening and ordered the calamari it was a B- proceeded with the fried fish and fries it was C- (took a couple bites and then took home then next day tossed) also we ordered the rib tacos and those were an A ; the drinks were okay a bit overpriced but heard this was an upscale restaurant (so I expected that) overall would have to give the place a B for it being kinda dark I'll definitely try it one more time and see if anything changes. Our waiter was not that attentive oh and is Sunday Jean day or is every day Jean day there? read more

The food and service was amazing! The steak had a great crust and a good amount of fat. It came out a perfect medium rare. For the price, the quality of the whole experience was very high. We even got a free crème brûlée from our server. Check this place out! read more

Got there late and ate dinner alone. Was seated quickly and the server was very attentive. The ambience is dark and the music a bit too loud for a conversation. Bring a flashlight to read the (dated) menu. Food came out fast and was good. The mashed cauliflower was cold, unfortunately. Great idea for a fish- wish I could have tried it. Steak was cooked a bit too well, but not too bad. Overall, not a bad meal, but stood not out from other steak restaurants. Good neighborhood place, it seems. Reasonably priced. read more

This place is dark and cozy, yet bustling with conversations and good music. It does not have a fancy ambiance, but it feels like a neighborhood bar and grill- east coast style where everyone knows each other. It was great to see this comfortable interaction amongst the patrons. On the back wall are locked cabinets with lattice grill fronts so you can see the contents inside. Some have several bottles in them. They all had a name plate above indicating the owner of the nice libations within. Nice touch- have not seen that anywhere else in El Paso yet. This indicates to me that the place has a strong core of regulars. The waiter, Ben, was phenomenal. The food was amazing! Wednesday night they have a Prime Rib special. The meat came with a choice of baked potato or fries. I had the perfectly cooked baked potato that was soft all the way through- delicious-and they were generous with the butter. I also opted for a wedge salad and it was good. The steaks were cooked to perfection- mine was medium rare and my dining companion had theirs medium well- both steaks were cooked perfectly. They have a nice selection of signature cocktails, as well as good coffee to end the meal...with a shareable white chocolate cheesecake. I will be back. Soon! Oh we did have reservations and it is a good thing because the place is popular. read more

Thirty 5ive Tavern & Grill - Rib Eye & Sautéed Mushrooms & Prime Rib Sandwich with fries - Steakhouses Near Me - El Paso, Texas

A group of friends meet at this tavern on July 22 at 5 p.m. We waited to be served at 6:30 p.m., which is unreasonable, in my opinion. Many customers were being served that came in after us. We had to wait an hour and a half to be served our meals! The meal i ordered was a steak sandwich that was third rate food!! The steak was hard with a little cabbage and a few tomato slices with no sides at all! The receipt included an Administration Fee and a 20% Gratuity that I was forced to pay with no options! This establishment is very dark and very cold to older senior citizens. I had difficulty reading the menu due to the darkness. In conclusion, our group will never revisit this disappointing restaurant! read more

Food - Excellent. Ordered Oysters Rockafeller. Hard to find in El Paso. Service - great from the greeting to the end Ambiance - In the bar area it was loud and table was too small for four adults and food. However, it is more romantic or intimate in the other area. read more

This was a birthday party celebration, and the food was good, with some exceptions. However, the service was kind of slow. One of the steaks was a bit under cooked and one of the salads that was ordered went missing. The oysters Rockefeller were also undercooked. Overall, the food was okay and the ambience was great. As usual it's a bit too loud in the restaurant for us. A suggestion for the manager is to lower the music so people can have conversations in there. We wish they had one of these restaurants on the west side. Also to be fair, they seem pretty full tonight, and they only had one waitress working the whole area. read more

Today, to celebrate our anniversary, we took a trip to El Paso to dine at the Thirty 5ive Tavern & Grill. It was a great experience. Our meal started out with a salad for my wife and delicious clam chowder for me. My wife had for her early dinner, the Hawaiian chicken with asparagus and I had the 12 oz. Ribeye with a twice baked potato. Both items were great, but the ribeye was the best steak that I have had in probably a couple of years. We finished our delightful meal with a piece of their humongous and delicious key lime pie. Service was outstanding and the place has a nice atmosphere. read more

I ordered my ribeye medium well but it was literally well done, no pink whatsoever even though it was well seasoned it was to dry.

Overall Very good! Really a 4 and a half star situation here. Drinks were just something special, well made and we tried a few! ;) We had Oysters Rockefeller, they were really good! Glad to say that. The Oysters Rockefeller we sampled were remarkable, exceeding our expectations. We also tried the seabass, which was a generous portion and absolutely delicious; next time, we plan to share an entrée, as it was quite a hefty cut. The service was impeccable; our waiter was outstanding and demonstrated an impressive knowledge of the menu. It's a pleasure when staff can offer insightful recommendations and guidance. Again, the drinks, just so good! We eagerly anticipate our next visit, not only to enjoy the seabass again but also to explore their steaks, which looked equally enticing. We'll be back soon! Well done! read more

This is probably my favorite restaurant in town. Never had one bad meal, drink, service situation, nothing. All good, all the time as far as I'm concerned. Bartender Carlos is on the ball and fast all the time, I tend to sit at the bar mostly unless I'm with family. I was more of a regular here before, when I lived a lot closer to the place than I do now. Still, I'll go with family on special occasions. I've had fish entrees, steak, salads, a bit of all their menu, although I favor steaks. The calamari is hard to beat, better than places that specialize in seafood. Clam chowder is excellent. Again, never a bad experience here, and I recommend it all the time. read more
