Strips with 6 unique sauces to experiment with. The lobster elote was a unique offering and tasted nice. It was good but I probably would try something different next time. The cauliflower in a marvelous sauce with pistachios was worthy of being an entree. Sooo good. Then came a trio of enchiladas- shrimp, crab and lobster. Each had a different sauce and it was apparent effort and care went on not the preparation. They were well prepared but I would look forward to trying something else next visit.

The ambiance is lively and fun when you enter the restaurant's interior courtyard during the warm weather seasons. Every wait staff member that helped us was kind and helpful when choosing from the menu that was new to us. We really enjoyed the food. It is elevated Mexican and Mayan food. I absolutely love that they have food that has traces of ancient Mayan recipes and cooking styles instead of a typical modern Tex-Mex menu. It's a welcome deviation in the heart of Texas. The restaurant is within walking distance from a few hotels for visitors, or if you're local and want to do a staycation, it is a perfect area for that!

The food is amazing!! Obviously every dish is meat based here and it's cooked to perfection. Seasoned deliciously and very tender. The garlic mashed potatoes were smooth and tasty. We also ordered Chicharrónes and guac. I'll admit I was very skeptical about The Chicharrónes because they're either cooked right or they're not. They got it down here. Everything was cooked exceptionally well and delicious. 10/10 recommend. Food and drinks are great!

Here in Texas, chips and salsa are such a commonplace experience it's off-putting to pay for them. We ordered the guacamole and the chips and salsa come with it, so that was, I guess, better...but the guacamole was $16, so there's that. The salsa was tasty as was the guacamole, but again, for the portion it's really not worth it. We had the queso flameado, which was yummy and the flour tortillas are good! We split the sirloin and were underwhelmed. For a grilled meats place the steak was very under seasoned and wasn't giving us fresh hot grilled vibes. Meh at best, as were the rice and beans. We ordered elote as a side and it was really the best thing we ate. Service was friendly and efficient! Cocktails average $16ish. Again, for the prices we expected better.

Our server was super friendly and greeted us right away. The chips and salsa are a 10/10. This salsa has a decent kick, and I could drink it plain. We ordered margaritas and they arrived quickly. My wife got the frozen with sangria (strawberry) and it was delicious. My Ocho (version of skinny) was also top-notch. For food, we decided to try both the fajitas and the enchiladas. We were not disappointed. The fajitas were a combo of beef and shrimp, and both were very tender. They come with the typical sides. The enchiladas were some of the best I have had in a long time. Clearly hand rolled, stuffed, flavorful, and delicious. I also got a side puffy taco, and it was awesome. We really enjoyed our dinner at Uno Mas. We will be back.

I don't think I've ever seen pineapple guacamole on a menu and boy am I grateful that we ordered it. I was shocked that despite almost closing, the chips still arrived hot and when we dove into the guacamole, we couldn't stop saying wow. The toasted pepitas were the perfect crunch and light salt to the creamy guacamole with little punches of sweet pineapple. Order this guacamole. You will be so happy you did! The shrimp tacos (2) were also amazing. I couldn't figure out if they had blended mango or just more pineapple into the sauce but the sweetness to the chili was a perfect tasty flavor bomb. The rice and beans that were served with it were not sad at all and also full of flavor. I am so glad I trusted yelp to tell me a place for a post concert snack. We had a short time to enjoy, but I would do it again. Amazing bold flavors!

I decided on the milanesa de pollo after looking at some photos and my partner got the chicken enchiladas. We snacked on complimentary chips and salsa on the meantime. The milanesa de pollo was beautiful, with generous pieces of chicken, a smattering of charred corn, and a fresh arugula salad to alleviate some of the deep-fried guilt. Sadly the enchiladas were less enticing -- the tortilla wrap was kind of rubbery and the chicken was unseasoned and stringy. The service could also be more attentive, since we ran out of water for a bit. Not a bad choice if you're in the area, but maybe do some research beforehand on what people recommend.

Chris our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took his time walking us through the menu and explaining what made El Carlos Elegante so special. The drinks were perfect. My wife loved her Desert Flor while I thoroughly enjoyed my Modelo Micheleda. Her Surf and Turf one hitter was exceptional. I have to say my Crab Cake was just ok. It tasted a little pasty and very heavy on the bread. The Pulpo was absolutely amazing. Perfect texture and the sauce it was served almost had me licking the plate. The El Machete was incredible from its presentation, to the freshness of the corn tortilla, to the quality of the meat inside. Definitely recommend this. We really liked our Okra + Shishito course, we just wished it had more okra in it. The two things I loved about the Al Pastor was of course the sauce it was served on but the fact that I got to enjoy it like a steak. It was served sliced on a bias like flank steak. Typically Al Pastor is finely chopped and served in tacos and burritos, so this was a different eating experience for me. And of course it was delicious as well. We cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu.
