Birthday fun
Shana W.

Going to Amigos is ALWAYS a good time. The people who work here are the best, most friendly people whether you are there in the afternoon for lunch or in the evenings for a drink with dinner. The food is absolutely delicious. We love the chalupas and sampler platters. The drinks are also amazing and reasonably priced. The go to of our group tends to be the sangria swirl, but the cucumber margarita with the tajin rim is my FAVORITE! The vibes here are so fun in the evenings. Especially on Fridays and Saturdays when they have live music. Sometimes we even bring our own speaker and have karaoke in the back room. Overall this is our favorite place in Richardson!

Great local spot that makes me wish I lived closer. Fast drinks and fresh food. Sat in the bar area for lunch and everyone seemed happy.

Cheese enchiladas with avocado sauce

Service and food are good, as always! Be cautious coming on a Saturday night if you don't like live music. The music is really really loud so it's hard to hear yourself and others at your table. I would suggest sitting on the left side of the restaurant if that's not really your thing.

Came to the place for the first time for my moms birthday and I have to say I am glad that I made this choice. The food was delicious and the drinks are good. This service was great our waiter was very helpful and attentive to everyone. If you wanna have a good time and dance to some great music must come and try. Music starts at 8:00 Friday Saturday

Pollo en Mole
Dawn N.

I love this place so much! Probably if not, the best Mexican restaurant in Richardson!!! Food is very authentic, customer service is amazing. The drinks are cheap and worth getting 3 margaritas for the price of one at most places. I ordered Pollo en Mole comes with rice and beans. The mole sauce is a bit spicy but very flavorful. And chips and salsa are complimentary. Again, check this place out. You won't be disappointed!!

Brisket enchiladas
Yasmin C.

My friend loves this place and decided to invite me to eat dinner here. We sat down in Bar area . We were greeted right away by bartender . He was very sweet and actually spoke to us . We chatted a little. We ordered happy hour margaritas and queso. They give you complimentary chips and salsa which is great. The food and drinks is delicious I ordered the brisket enchiladas and they were amazing. Filled with mashed potatoes and sauce that they are plated over is so creamy and tasty. I will definitely be bringing my family here The service was great :)

Ribeye Stew
Mary M.

Amigos Restaurant great customer service with just ok food. My husband and I ventured over to Amigos after church Sunday looking for some great Tex-Mes eats. However, we left abit disappointed. The staff was great! Everyone was friendly and generous with their greetings, and our waiter was prompt and attentive. My husband had the Egg Burrito which he described as ok. I had the Ribeye Stew described as; 10oz Ribeye cut meat served in mixed spicy Serrano and mole sauce with rice and beans topped with queso fresco and sliced avocado. Which it was exactly that, MINUS the meat and the stew part. The sauce was salty and the 10 ounces of Ribeye meat was more like 10 pieces of Ribeye meat, which is daunting considering the $18 price tag that came with the total of 8 ounces of "stew". Honestly, it would have been better to have served a 8oz Bone-in Ribeye Steak topped with Serrano/Mole sauce, Queso Fresco and sliced Avocado served with rice and beans, for $18! None the less, I am someone who will visit an establishment that has Great customer service and ok food. (That's just my personal feelings and I'm sticking to it)! So, to Amigos; let's work on the food matching the amazing service you guys offer. Maybe next time, I'll try the brunch menu.

I usually never write Yelp reviews but this place was deserving of one! The staff were super fun and friendly - the door was opened for us when we walked in and that immediately felt good. The waiters weren't bothersome and made us feel comfortable. We sat in the back toward the stage and as the night progressed there was fun live music! The one thing I will say is that it was a little too loud, but we were sitting close. The food was in big plates and tasted great. Super diverse menu but not the weird sort where there is sushi and burgers at the same restaurant. Lol. Great experience I wasn't expecting!

Watch out for the forced 20% tip. Tip is my option and I am a good tipper but allow the server to earn it.

The first time we went to La Sombra Cantina we thought we were going back to Pineda's. We were…read moresurprised at the change and hoped it was at least as good as Pineda's. We were very pleasantly surprised. It's even better in my opinion. The people are very warm and friendly. The food is really delicious. I love that they bring not only good salsa with their fresh hot chips, but also a tomatillo sauce and a black bean dip. We've now eaten there several times. The taco meat has a nicely charred flavor. The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.

We have been to some nicer hole-in-the-wall restaurants, that we liked better, and felt more at home. The conference room chairs are uncomfortable, along with the flat decor with loud colors. For the food, all we can say is Meh...and the drinks are weak. There are so many better mexican restaurants to dine with, in this City.

I.got the crab enchiladas with beans and rice and they were delicious!! Creamy, crab tasted fresh, just the right amount of heat. My husband got the fajita combo and was equally as pleased with his fresh everything was! Chips were warm and salsa was good and spicy. We loved that they bring a spicy salsa and no so spicy as well. We've gone three times and each time we've gotten the same items. Quality and taste never changed- on one occasion we went pretty close to their closing time and STILL...great quality and service. Definitely a recommend!

Unfortunately, since the ownership change, the experience just hasn't been the same. The customer service is still decent, and I genuinely enjoy their spicy Mexican martini -- that's honestly the main reason I still stop by. However, the food quality has noticeably declined. Over the past year, I've experienced stomach issues after eating here, which had never happened to me before under the previous ownership. I'm not sure if it's a change in ingredients, preparation methods, or sourcing, but something is clearly different. It's disappointing because this used to be a go-to spot. I truly hope the new management takes a closer look at the food quality and consistency. There's a strong history here, and it would be great to see it restored.

Pappasito's is one of those staple high end restaurants you go to for special occasions. In fact,…read morewhen we were there - multiple birthdays were being celebrated. It has a name, and a space most everyone knows. The food is good, but many new restaurants are coming up with better quality menu items to compete against Pappasito's. The waiter was exceptional. Friendly, attentive, and made sure we did not want for anything while we had dinner. It was a good overall experience.

My wife and I have been coming to Papasitos for many years. We love the fajitas and the margaritas…read moreand ambience. Today was her birthday (one of those that come every 10 years) and she wanted to go to Papasitos. I made reservations, checked the box that we were celebrating a BD. We arrived ahead of our reservation and had a little wait for a table. No problem. The young lady from the check in seated us and ask if we were celebrating anything. I told her that it was my wife's birthday, but she didn't want the full blown hooten hollering sombrero celebration. We waited 8-10 minutes before a server came to our table. He immediately apologized for the wait and said that he was helping out another waiter that was supposed to have our table. He took our drink order and soon returned with our drinks. To my surprise, he proceeded to take our food order. I thought he was temporarily helping out until the other server could catch up and take over. That wasn't the case. Ok, No problem so far. I'm giving 2 stars because the food came out super fast and hot and delicious. Then our server delivers hot flour tortillas.., all 3 of them. After each eating one taco, we were ready for another batch. Now this is where it started to go downhill. Several minutes go by and I could not grab his attention. I literally had to waive my hand in the air to flag him down across the restaurant. He finally looked my direction and soon delivered more tortillas. That was the last we saw of him. No checking on our table, no refills on our drinks, no nothing. After we finished our meal, we waited another 25 minutes to try to get his attention to close out our meal. He would never look our way. He was like a horse with blinders. Honestly, I think he forgot that he was our server OR MAYBE he saw us as 2 people and his gratuity was going to be smaller compared to the larger tables. Finally, I flagged down another server from another table and ask if he could close us out. He asked if we had a paper receipt, which we had not. He closed us out on his iPad. I didn't even get the chance to order my wife a dessert to celebrate the occasion. No bueno! Let's just say the service was abysmal and absolutely unacceptable. My man went MIA. It is questionable whether I will return to this establishment.
