    Allende Combo
    Anthony D.

    Came in again today and tried the Pozole Verde de Pollo and Allende Combo. They were both pretty decent, definitely recommend adding the side accoutrements to the pozole to add some extra flavor.

    Smashed the food!

    First rate service and food. My son loved his steak burrito and I had the Conchinta Pibil which was outstanding. We ended the meal with the Tres Leches dessert. We'll be back for sure.

    FRIED CHIMICHANGA

    6:00 pm reservations on a Saturday night. Seated right on time. Great outdoor seating area, but we chose to sit inside. We were sat directly under an air conditioning vent, which blasted cold air directly on to our table. This was not ideal, but we all just put on our sweatshirts/jackets. I suppose we could have asked to be moved, but I hate making a scene of any kind in a restaurant. Service was very good. Ara was very pleasant, kept our drinks refilled, checked back, cleared plates immediately. She did seem a little put off when I requested more chips and salsa, but she did bring them promptly, Speaking of chips and salsa, they are complimentary, and were delivered as soon as we sat down. The chips were warm, but nothing special. The salsa , on the other hand, was amazing! Not spicy at all, but super fresh...full of flavor...tomatoes tasted like they had just been picked fresh from the garden. Amazing! Food came lightening fast, and was possibly the best Mexican food I've had. Portions were generous. I had a burrito ranchero with grilled chicken. Tons of moist grilled chicken, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, sour cream, topped with their salsa and melted cheese. All the cold ingredients brought down the temperature of the burrito, but this is pretty common with burritos. Hubby had steak tacos. Three flour tortillas packed with tender steak, and the usual taco toppings. Got a big thumbs up, but again food was not super hot. Our friends had a chimichanga, and a combination plate. Both were very pleased with their food. Best compliment I can give is between the four of us, there wasn't a single bite left on anyone's plate. Staff was very friendly. Great greeting, and a round of thank yous and goodbyes when we left. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    Steak Fajitas
    Joy C.

    Their margaritas were strong. The couple of times that I have been here, I've concluded that their margaritas are not to be taken lightly ;) The first time I've tried Yerbabuena, we were seated on the second floor dining area. The service was friendly and efficient. The place was neat and the vibe was lively. I liked the STEAK FAJITAS that I ordered. There was a lot of meat and the dish was cooked well. I also tried the CHICKEN TEQUILA DIABLO. That dish was spicy, and it was delicious. The second visit was with a group of 6, on a Saturday night and we were seated on the first floor dining area. I had STEAK TACOS-CHUY STYLE. One order came with 3 pieces and they were good sized tacos. The steak was seasoned and cooked well again. The rice and beans that came with the tacos were also tasty. My friends were satisfied with their dishes and drinks. The service was pretty slow though. Maybe because it was a busy night. Overall, I liked the variety of food on the menu. I'll try something else besides a steak dish next time. The bathrooms were clean and the place was fun for a date night or group gathering. Til next time! P.S. Call the restaurant to make reservations. They do not have online reservations available.

    Yerbabuena is so cute and really aesthetic. The inside is really neat and well put together. The outdoor patio is gorgeous as well and looks out over Main Street, I would definitely enjoy a margarita out there in the summer. The food was subpar. The soup we had was really flavorful. The elotes had great flavor but the portion size was extremely small. The salmon that our waiter recommended to us was just okay. I'm not sure if I would try the food again the service was really nice and fast. They were really nice to talk to. The owner of the restaurant even talked to us for a while and gave us free shots of tequila which was really nice.

I ordered the Barbacoa which was very favorful I have celiac disease, so I was a bit concerned with it being gluten-free and safe. I had no issues. The server was semi knowledgeable regarding the menu however, he did not know as much as the kitchen.

Due to low staffing, the bar area was closed. The host was also the bartender and the server. We were offered a basket of chips and salsa and the chips were terrible.

They drinks had fun names. Unfortunately, El gran agave was a miss for me.

They were busy but seated us right away. Dinner at Ike and Oak was delicious! As we left, the restaurant was still largely empty. It felt like a missed opportunity -- we were ready to dine and support a new local business, and likely would have been in and out well before many of the anticipated reservations arrived. Unfortunately, the experience left us choosing another place to give our business too. Customer service is so important when there are so many places to give your business to.

Service was very friendly and the place was clean. Prices were fair for what you get. I first ate the al pastor taco. I loved how they were generous with meat.
