Wonderful upscale Mexican restaurant in Las Colinas. I enjoyed the ambience they create with the candles and sounds of waterfall, it's suitable for special occasions dinner. The service was top notch from the hostess to waiters to everyone , they were very nice , helpful and professional and most importantly the food was amazing , the natchos were delicious, my chicken cilantro dish was so flavorful the chicken is tender and I loved the Mexican rice and vegetables were seasoned nicely. My son had the the Tacos Del Res they were very delicious and the meat was cooked perfectly. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. They also have valet parking outside and they have good amount of parking space .

Our server, Roque, was phenomenal. He took such good care of us. The entire staff is so hospitable and makes you feel like a VIP. So many sweet extra touches to make our anniversary special. We can't wait to come back! 10/10 would recommend.

They made our occasion even more special, we celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary here and I must say!! Food was so delicious, hospitality is outstanding, and Ambiance is so romantic. The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Can’t wait to return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking to celebrate their occasion here!! Kudos!!

I’m a food blogger who lives in, and works in Las Colinas. The company I work for always has Via Reál cater for our town hall meetings and we love it. My husband and I finally decided to dine in for the first time to celebrate being newly married, and boy am I glad we did!! We visited this past Saturday night and we had the best experience! I can’t want to post a video for my followers to see how wonderful this restaurant is, from the food to the service. We ordered the chicken tortilla soup to start, along with two Via Ritas. The soup was comforting for a cold night and flavorful. The drinks did what they were supposed to do lol. Very good as well. For our entrees, I ordered the Chicken Monterey, and my husband ordered the Pork Loin. We both loved our dishes! I was even happy to have some left to take home. I ate it today, and it was just as tasty as it was in the restaurant! For dessert we had the mousse cake and OMG it was one of the best I’ve had! The hostess was so polite to check my coat, and our server, Michael was so passionate. We tell he loves what he does. I loved the dim atmosphere. Also, thanks for the complimentary valet! It comes in great handy on a cold night!! 10/10; WILL RECOMMEND!! I can’t wait to come back!!!

Via Reál is the real deal. It’s an Irving mainstay with insanely good food and amazing customer service. If you get a chance, ask for Ciara as your server. She wears a perpetual smile and has one of the most pleasant demeanors that I have ever experienced. I would give this establishment more than five stars if possible. Cannot rave about it enough. PS: if you like to spice it up a bit, ask for the in-house habanero sauce. You will thank me later.

Amazing all star restaurant. This is fine dining at its best. From the moment you step in the door, they treat you royally. We had the roasted shrimp and sea bass enchiladas. Everything on that plate was amazing from the spinach salad to the shrimp. We also had a classic standard of beef enchiladas with rice and beans. They were the best. Save room for the chocolate raspberry cake; it’s so moist and rich. You’ll want to have it with a coffee. The staff was so attentive. They had excellent wine pairing suggestions. Even the owner stopped by our table. Fran is a delightful woman. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening.

Nice restaurant. I visited on the way to the airport and they stowed my luggage while I ate. The squash enchiladas were fantastic. A great veg meal. The bartender crafted a perfect reduced alcohol skinny margarita for me too.

I recently dined at Via Real, a fancy Mexican restaurant, and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. The food was delicious, especially the crab cake, lamb rack, and coconut shrimp, which were cooked to perfection. Our server, Raul, was extremely friendly and accommodating, helping us choose from the menu and even assisting with a birthday cake. The atmosphere was perfect for a special occasion and I would highly recommend Via Real for anyone looking to celebrate a memorable meal.

The BEST brunch buffet in the metroplex!! So they have brunch on Sundays with bottomless mimosas/poinsettias. Reservation is recommended. Everything is set up beautifully, fresh, and plentiful. Absolutely love this place

We were here on a Tuesday evening at 8 PM and this restaurant was buzzing with corporate crowd. We had a table for two and we ordered two meals. For the vegetarian we had the squash enchiladas. The tortilla itself was a little under cooked but the enchilada was very flavorful. we also had Taco de res, tenderloin tacos, which were really intense and flavorful. The corn on the squash enchilada was probably one of the best corns I have had. The best part was the dessert, we had a flan and a rice pudding made like a cheesecake, which was highly recommended by our host And we absolutely loved it. For two people we spent approximately $40 per head but definitely a place I would love to revisit and spend some time. Great ambience Great food and a great host.

Excellent service and delicious dinner. Owner very nice going from table to table to make sure all is good. Valet parking avaliable. Highly recommend!

The food was great, I had the beef tenderloin, medium rare, and it was cooked perfectly. They bring out a flaming pad that they extinguish with the steak, and it gives it a nice smoky flavor. The rest of my group all had different items ranging from Mexican to seafood, and no complaints. Service was good, waiter didn’t know the full beer list and it’s not on the menu, so I took the first thing he knew, and it was good. Atmosphere has an older feel, it’s not a scene, and not very loud. It was a bit on the pricey side — our group of 4 with appetizer, drinks, entrees; and two desserts (with tip) was $285.

This spot came highly recommended by a well-traveled friend, since I was staying near the restaurant for the night, and it was on their top 5 best places to eat in the DFW area. My expectations were high. I decided to do takeout and pick up the meal myself. The order on the Via Real website was super easy, and my meal was ready for pickup in 15 minutes. The parking was ample, and the entrance had two heavy wood doors. From the outside, it left a mystery as to what was to be expected inside. The moment I opened the doors, the old Spanish charm took my breath away; no detail was left behind. Walking through another set of doors, I was greeted by three people. They very quickly went and got my order, made some small talk with me, and I was off. I ordered my guilty pleasures, which were grilled steak and chicken nachos, and stuffed jalapeños with Spanish rice. The nachos were served more authentically in large tortilla chips, and they gave me separate containers for all the toppings. Everything was so beautifully and carefully packed for me. Also, I got a large bag of their tortilla chips and salsa. This might be the best chips and salsa I’ve ever had. The chips were so thin and delicate yet had the crispiest crunch. The salsa was perfectly fresh, with sweet tomatoes; the salty and acid levels were on point. I could honestly drink that salsa. The stuffed jalapeños were roasted perfectly so they still maintained a bit of their crunch without being raw. The spice and seasoning levels on everything were perfect. I regret not getting dessert too. I’ll definitely be back to try their full entrees.

1st things 1st STAFF IS AMAZING. Nice clean. Great ambience 5 stars for that but 4 for everything else. Guac was terribly bland. Salsa great! Chocolate cake was good. Carrot cake is different because of the type of frosting they use. I think waiter said it's a white chocolate cream cheese type but seemed like I also tasted a bit of lemon somewhere in the bite I had. It was good but just different than expected. Enchiladas were average. Sea bass was good but didn't care for the mashed potatoes in the pineapple boat that I tried a bite of. I'll have to return and try something different. Find something I really like because I love the atmosphere and the OWNER is delightful.

So much lovely place for romantic dinner or any formal dinner beautiful people working on the restaurant. I Reserve my table for 9pm for Valentine’s Day most busyness of the year unfortunately me and my husband arrived there 8:08pm almost hour early. I was thinking we have to wait until 9pm. As soon reaction people see us and asked when was my reservation I told them and in 5 minutes they give us table it was so impressive for us and the food was amazing 🤩.everyone worked there was so nice. I would love to go there again 😊

A beautiful and romantic place for fine dining! The ambience is so peaceful with a variety of Tex Mex dishes served, alongside the complimentary Nachos and salsa. Rates are affordable and the staffs are super nice and friendly. Would recommend booking in advance

Oh my goodness! First time here. This place was so classy, clean, and the food was amazing to the 10th power! I was there celebrating my b-day and LOVE, LOVE the special touch of capturing my moments with a photo & card to hold it. This is the BEST place for date, family, friends, business, or heck just because it's the bomb.com!! I highly recommend this restaurant!! Via Real

Such a lovely experience dining at Via Real! It was my birthday and glad that we picked the place to enjoy our dinner there! I think this restaurant is going to be one of my favorite restaurants in Dallas/F.Worth from now on. Food was delicious, atmosphere was romantic, the server was very nice & helpful, the greeter lady was amazing with her charming presence & kind words she made us feel so good! Loved this place we would definitely come back again! P.S: if you’re planning to celebrate a special event with amazing food & atmosphere pick this place without any doubt! Just make sure to book prior if you’d be more than two person.

Lunch during a weekday. We went there for lunch. Friendly and prompt service. quiet and nice atmosphere. Chips and salsa were very good Margaritas were good. Queso dip was a bit watery but ok. Mains disappointing. These were Tacos but more like a mix between Taco and Enchilada. The Sea Bass was smelling really fishy and tasted so fishy and with cheese poured over was not a good combo. their special taco with beef lacked flavour and felt again like and mix between enchiladas taco. The Creme Brûlée was phenomenal. So three for the service, aps, drinks and desert. Mains very disappointing.

Had a business meeting and ordered takeout to go. The atmosphere is beautiful and in a nice location. The chips and salsa are amazing! The chips were fresh and lightly salted. Perfect combination with the red salsa. While waiting at the bar, I asked for a menu and received a response from a gentleman that he wasn't on the clock yet and was just getting in and to please give him a second. The other wait staff didn't offer a menu. We waited, and the gentleman came back with the menu as promised. It was roughly 4:15 in the afternoon, and the restaurant wasn't busy yet. I ordered the Abodo Shrimp and Crab Enchiladas with Mango black bean salsa and added 2 scallops. Once I made it home, (Ft Worth), I realized the enchiladas were missing the mango black bean salsa. I'm sure it's a great compliment for the enchiladas. Overall, the crab enchiladas paired with the shrimp are a good combination. The shrimp was delicious and had great flavor. The spinach was a bit bland for my tasting, and the scallops were cooked to perfection.

Absolutely an amazing dining experience! Everything we ordered was prepared to perfection. The pecan crusted Chilean sea bass was excellent. From the valet to the server everyone was very friendly. The suggestions from our waiter Rafael were great! He knows the menu very well. The owner personally came around to introduce herself and check on her customers. Now that’s what I call service and hospitality!

Customer Service 💯 This restaurant is an impressive fine dining experience (vibe) at its best. From the gracious host walking in to moment you step out, they treat you royally. The food was delicious, absolutely no complaints. The steak was cooked to perfection. The staff was so attentive and sweet. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Ms. Fran Mathers, who delightfully made her presence known to every table. Also the manager Jimmy and chef Jesus visited our table several times to ensure our food was cooked to perfection. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening. if you’re planning to celebrate a special event with amazing food & atmosphere pick this place without any doubt! Oh yea.. in case you eat some onions or have a close interaction with someone after dinner, they have complimentary mouth wash in the restrooms.

I had the dinner here . Food is good and there is some interesting choices. Mexican finest food + steak house.... Is a little bit of mix, but I think the food is really good and service fast and prepare

One of the best restaurant service I’ve ever had. My husband and I came for our anniversary and every one was so sweet and kind. Just amazing. Even the owner came out to say hi, we really appreciate it. My husband had the Salmon and was raving about how good it was. I had the beef fajita which was also great. The ambiance was so peaceful and pretty to look around. 10/10

Even with a very respectable 4.7 stars, this restaurant is UNDERrated. Gorgeous decor, wonderful drink and food menu, attentive and knowledgeable staff (shout out to Rafael for the phenomenal care!), flavorful plates, generous portions, exquisite presentation, complimentary valet parking, ... the list goes on. On top of all that, the chef was very accommodating with my [gluten- free] food restrictions. Due to Via Reál being an experience and fair portions, the ticket arrived apropos. Would recommend their baby shrimp ceviche, Camarones a la Diabla, and their bone- in pork loin.

My friends and I had dinner at this very nice restaurant. The waiter was very attentive and fast. The food was served hot and very tasty. The owner came over and introduced herself and thanked us for dining at the restaurant. The restaurant serves great brunch on the weekend. I would recommend you visit them.😁

I recently dined at Vía Real Restaurant in Santa Fe and it was an outstanding experience! The food was incredibly delicious, with a real Santa Fe flair that was both authentic and flavorful. The ambiance of the restaurant was perfect, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that was both stylish and comfortable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and an excellent vibe. Five stars all around!
