I
love
a
good
Tex-Amex
establishment,
and
my
Houston
friends
said
that
this
was
one
of
the
chains
that
would
be
excellent.
They
were
correct.
As
soon
as
we
came,
we
were
placed
on
the
waitlist
however
we
were
quickly
seated
after
a
short
wait.
Staff
asked
if
any
of
us
were
new
to
this
restaurant.
Being
the
only
one
not
from
Houston,
I
told
them
I
was.
The
manager
of
the
establishment
personally
brought
us
out
complimentary
skirt
steak
tacos
for
being
a
first-timer
here,
and
these
were
excellent.
Their
skirt
steak
is
the
real
deal!
So
much
flavor,
so
juicy,
and
surprisingly
tender.
We
got
complimentary
chips
and
salsa
and
a
bean
dip.
The
bean
dip
is
amazing.
I
could
eat
this
with
chips
all
day
as
it
had
spices
and
cilantro
and
was
super
savory
yet
thin
enough
to
still
eat
with
chips.
Being
here
during
their
Hatch
Chile
season,
I
had
to
get
one
of
their
seasonal
dishes
that
included
this.
I
got
the
hatch
barbacoa
tacos
-
braised
beef
with
a
Hatch
Chile
sauce
and
queso
fresco,
all
on
a
corn
tortilla.
This
was
breathtaking.
The
corn
tortillas
are
freshly
made
in-house,
and
this
is
easily
my
favorite
corn
tortilla
I’ve
ever
eaten.
The
corn
flavor
really
permeates
throughout
the
tortilla
while
being
incredibly
soft.
The
beef
was
braised
so
well
and
a
generous
portion
was
added
to
the
2
tacos.
And
the
chile
sauce
gave
a
nice
tang
and
decent
spiciness
to
the
whole
dish.
The
dish
was
served
with
great
rice
and
flavorful
beans.
I
also
tried
their
carne
asada
which
was
a
huge
piece
of
tender
steak.
This
was
so
soft
that
I
legitimately
was
able
to
use
a
spoon
to
cut
and
eat
it.
It
had
such
a
peppery
and
smoky
flavor
to
it.
Lastly,
make
sure
you
get
some
pepper
shrimp
brochette.
This
is
shrimp
wrapped
in
bacon
and
it’s
impeccable.
You
don’t
want
to
miss
adding
this
to
any
part
of
your
meal.
The
manager
and
her
staff
were
so
friendly
and
attentive
throughout
our
meal
which
we
really
appreciated.
Our
drinks
were
always
kept
full
and
we
never
felt
like
we
were
having
to
wait
for
anything.
