    Fajita taco plate
    Edward T.

    Food is always good.The service is always great, and the atmosphere is nice.. We always come about once a month

    Chips and salsa.
    Christopher M.

    My husband and I wanted dinner and we went here with a friend from out of town, it was great! We decided to try it again just us. And it did not disappoint, large group was waiting for a table and since it was just my husband and I, we were able to get sat immediately. Our service Marissa was helpful and answered our questions promptly. Greeting us like we were her regulars who she saw weekly and giving us her experience. Chips and salsa were destroyed. Two Bowls of chips and two bowls of salsa. Husband ordered a Mexican dinner and he enjoyed it. Enchilada taco plate (no picture sorry). I ordered the grilled taco platter and it was beautiful. Marissa added a sauce that was perfect to dip the tacos in. And her suggestion of extra tortillas were perfect for when the tacos fell apart because I'm a messy eater. Chipotle sauce. Just (chefs kiss). When you come here, in our experience, the food is delivered quickly after you order it. This place appears to be perfect for any size group. A nice bar and large seating area. The decor is traditional Mexican restaurant. Everything was great and we will be attending this place again.

    One chicken and one beef enchilada!!

    Delicious! We go weekly! Their chicken fried chicken is the best! I also love their stuffed burrito and the chicken enchiladas!! Plus they have yummy Dr. Pepper!!

    Chicken Fried Steak with Queso and pico
    Kaylie F.

    Perfect place to fill your belly after a long day of water activities in the Texas heat! The margaritas are PEREFECT. Everything you're looking for in a frozen margarita. Or if you choose, get a huge mug of draft beer to wash down your chips. Now I'm not one to get food that isn't the type of cuisine of the restaurant, however, my husband tested the chicken fried steak topped with Queso and pico, and both of us agree, it's the best chicken fried steak we've ever had. And that's saying a lot coming from two home-grown Texans. The batter is so perfectly light and crispy, steak tender, and the jalepenos on top add the perfect kick. My quesadillas and enchilada were perfectly satisfying, and overall, we left with me complaining I ate too much. When in New Braunfels, eat at Adobe Cafe.

    Beef Chimichanga
    Toni S.

    So we were in the neighborhood so we had to stop and get my steak fajita quesadilla and hubby got the beef chimichanga this time. Well he said the beef was better than the chicken! He loved it. The only way they can improve our meals is to upgrade the chips and salsa. The chips were a little stale today. We love the drive through service for our to go orders.

    Steak quesadilla- so very good!!!!  Full order is two layers, there is 6 pieces

    The first basket of chips was free. After that you have to pay for them. Not many choices on the menu and we didn't stay and eat.

    Love this building, lots of beautiful decor. Service was also good…read more Food is great, can't go wrong with anything it seems like! Went for lunch and enjoyed it probably even better for dinner!!

    i was SO excited to come back here! hubbie and i had a fantastic meal here last year for our…read moreanniversary. (we live in san antonio) but... the experience this time was just ok, not fantastic. despite hubbie making reservations 3 weeks in advance, and restaurant knowing it was a celebratory occasion, we were seated at the very first table - which faces the entrance. awkward location. we pretty much ordered same meal as last time. mexican shrimp cocktail - sauce was very thick in an off putting way, but shrimp was fresh and nicely chilled. hubbie got shrimp & oysters with fries. he's not one to complain much, but he said all were a bit greasy & not as crispy as he'd like. i had shrimp, scallops & broccolini. plate came with not very well prepared broccoli - with no mention from server before or upon arrival of switch. how can broccoli be both under & over at same time? unsure, but parts were very hard and others too soft, so it went mostly uneaten. i would have asked for something else if id known they didnt have broccolini. scallops & shrimp were well prepared, but light, velvety sauce from last time was replaced with slightly "gloopy" and a bit greasy sauce, didnt look or taste very appealing. brussel sprouts were drenched in some type of mayo sauce that was not mentioned on the menu. so "crispy" brussel sprouts were soggy. SO... how much of this experience was on us? we didnt complain, we didnt send back, but we would have had to send EVERYTHING back and this was our anniversary. we are not that picky that every dish needs to be perfectly prepared to our liking. but for is to encounter a problem with every dish? maybe just a bad night. but i dont feel like we received the upscale experience we paid for. only one thing was as fantastic as we remembered - the creme brûlée!

    YELP needs HELP! OMG, Yelp has them rated at a 3.6 which…read moreis ridiculous. Take a look at Google Review where they are a 4.2 and Open Table (the truest restaurant ranking out there) have them at a whopping 4.8 star review! Anyway, this place is awesome. I took my son and brand new daughter-in-law, her parents and other very close friends there this past Friday and must say everything was perfectly beautiful. I called the day before and spoke with whom I believe is the manager named Kim and she assisted me with a larger than normal reservation. When we arrived Friday at 7 PM the staff was absolutely fantastic in assisting us with our reservation. After a celebratory bottle of champagne we all had appetizers and everyone had different main dish and deserts, everyone thought their food was over the top excellent. I wish I knew what our server's name was because she did such an outstanding job, kudos to her, she was great. The ambience there is unbelievable. Just a real cool place to go to. Their food style is upscale Cajun cuisine. If you haven't eaten here, I suggest you go real soon. If you kinda like Maca-whos? there in New Braunfels your gonna really love this place.

    well... from friends suggestion i was expecting more of an inexpensive shrimp/fish basket kinda…read moreplace (YES! i shoulda yelped it!) was not really looking for an upscale, date night kinda spot, but thats what i got. there was a lot of tasty sounding options on their menu that you dont get at your basic basket seafood shop. nice menu, enough, but not too many options so that you are overwhelmed. i opted for catfish (im picky) and shrimp. it came with fries - all sides listed at bottom - no price, but no upcharges noted. i asked to sub spinach for fries. i will give the server the benefit of the doubt that he was new. because he did not fit the ambiance of the restaurant. he wasnt terrible, but he wasnt good either. not very knowledgeable about menu, and didnt have answers for some of our menu questions. group ordered onion rings for table (one friend generously offered and asked for it to be on her tab). they arrived fresh from the fryer and VERY tasty! onion cooked through, breading light and crispy - although it did tend to fall off. other friends sides salads looked fresh and colorful. i did try a cocktail, summer peach sangria $12 which i enjoyed, light and refreshing. food arrived and my plate had fries - no spinach. the server apologized and said he'd bring it right out and there would be no charge (no charge? why? i subbed it for fries). the shrimp was butterflied and plump and tasty. the catfish was a MISS! if you want to charge upscale prices - prep your fish correctly. the slimy grey underbelly was left on - gross! so you either eat it or dissect the breaded filets. i tried a fry while waiting on my spinach - it was not good, didnt taste fresh, wasnt hot and i was glad i had subbed them. spinach arrived and it was the HIGHLIGHT! WOW! bright green, tender, not overcooked leaves with a light cream sauce. i passed it around and everyone LOVED it! another surprisingly yummy bite was the chicken tenders! they got passed around too, moist, tender and very tasty. salads that passed by looked delicious and fresh! not your usual leafy dishes. we did have to ask for drink refills although there werent many tables. bills arrived & onion rings had been divided amongst us - appreciate they can do that, but friend had asked for them to be added to her bill. i was also charged $2 for my spinach. server again said it was his fault (not noting sub) and offered to remove it. but apparently there was an upcharge, which is fine, but note on menu or have server inform. but since all are listed as fries with no separate pricing - it looks like they are interchangeable. it wasnt a bad meal but at $45 plus tip, i left feeling like i had a fried basket experience at a premium price. i told myself i'd pay $20 for the spinach so...
