    Great drinks!
    Jessica F.

    Love all the locations they have. You can't beat the buy one get one on drinks specials. Food is good, vibe is good and I will always come back.

    Margarita flight
    Chekiva D.

    Went to have a post birthday celebration and it was outstanding. We had a lake front view at about 630 so it was nice outside. Our waitress was nice and attentive making food accommodations and recommendations since I have a good allergy. I didn't really like the black beans but the fajita quesadillas were amazing!!

    My girl and I went here after my trip from Texas and had dinner with her family. The shrimp tacos are bomb!!! Love it!! Great portion and drinks are really good!! Went here second time to chat with my girl. Customer service is great, our servers are accommodating and friendly. I love seating outside dinning to see the lake much quieter. The inside looks great also but kinda loud. Place is clean and great decorations. I'll come back for more food.

    Fine dining Mexican experience. Margarita flight is so fun and all the flavors were outstanding. I ordered the shrimp and steak fajita bowl which was very fresh and flavorful. The service was very friendly!

    Molcajete
    Sam K.

    I love this place, especially when it's nice enough to sit outside. The service is always really good and I always get the Molcajete. It's a massive food tower in a bed of cheese and dark creamy sauce. It is so delicious and I always have some left over to take home for the next day. It is served with rice and tortillas to make your own little taco, and it is so satisfying. Try it with a glass of their equally delicious sangria

    Chicken Fajitas
    Tara T.

    Love having this restaurant close by! The food is always delicious. I've never had something that I didn't like!! The wait staff is always attentive and incredibly friendly. It can get loud in there when they are really busy and on the weekends for brunch they usually have a Mariachi band! They also have a covered outdoor area which is dog friendly!! Love going here for good food and drinks!

    Vegi-Macho Burrito with no dairy products
    Kait V.

    Service was great and the food was very good. We did the table side guacamole which was a little expensive considering as a vegan the bacon and queso had to be removed. I wish they would have discounted it without those items as those are expensive ingredients. Should be a separate up charge to make it cheesy and meaty if someone wants to make their guacamole that way. It was very delicious regardless. I got the vegetable burrito without any dairy products and it had tons of vegetables with a delicious verde salsa. We were sat next to a table of 35 people who screamed and yelled and clapped every few minutes to celebrate a birthday which good for them but it took away from our dining experience. I felt like I had gone to a concert and needed ear buds to block out the noise. I had to yell my order to the server and to talk to my friend we had to yell. Something like that should be booked far away from other people dining. It was the worst noise I have ever experienced in a restaurant when we just went to catch up after not seeing each other for about a year. Something for the manager and host team to think about. Maybe large parties that feel like they are having their own private party should have to pay a fee to be there after hours so they can scream and yell without impacting others dining experience. Just a thought. Food was good. This was my first experience. Not sure I would go back unless there was a guarantee for normal noise levels. I lost my voice from trying to talk to my friend at dinner kind of something else.

    Carne Asada Burrito
    Vicente H.

    Ordered the carne asada burrito, al rice and burn, with little pieces of meat. Service was very nice, I ordered skinny margaritas and they were also very good...but the food was just terrible, a thievery with the portion of meat, lots of rice and bean, no meat.

    Decor
    Tim P.

    The food and drinks were very good, but pricey. The atmosphere is very nice and feels high-end which explains the pricing a bit. The service was pretty lackluster. Everyone was very nice but service was slow. Drinks took a while to come out and I was never given the last drink I ordered. My wife's food came out nearly 15 minutes after everyone else's so we think it was forgotten at first. We had a larger party so that is a factor. We would still give this place another chance due to the food and atmosphere.

    Beautiful fountain
    Jazzy T.

    We went here to celebrate someone's birthday. Everything was good. Service was quick and easy. We will be back again. Ambiance was comfortable. Although, there was a lot of people, the place wasn't too noisy.

    Shrimp

    What a fun experience. If there was more seating, it would've been nice to sit outside to enjoy to enjoy the view, but there wasn't enough seating to accommodate a table of 5. They have a gratuity charge of 20% for tables of 6 or more. The Arroz con Mariscos was incredible! It was a special on their menu and I was impressed by the seafood. I have a shrimp allergy and they were able to put it to the side. The Mexican rice could've used a little more flavor, but the soup base of the dish made it incredibly savory. The portions were huge and overall the table loved their food. The salsa was one of the best salsas we've had at a Mexican restaurant. It had a small kick that gave it the perfect flavor. We had been offered for a spicier salsa and that was also fantastic. They refilled our chips quickly!

    guacamole

    I've tried many Mexican pleases nearby, NOTHING COMPARES! This Azteca location has become one of my favorite go-to spots, the servers are starting to recognize me (LOL)! Chips and drinks are always topped off, servers are great all around. Music is always on it seems like whenever we go, I always try to get outdoor seating when I can since it's next to a lake. They also got the best table side fresh guacamole compared to all the other places I've been! I always either get the carne asada, salad, or steak quesadilla, nothing disappoints. I will always recommend this location to friends that stay/live nearby!

    Natalie D.

    Good food, great margaritas! Easy to get seated and often not crazy busy. Service is fast and the staff is very accommodating and helpful. My favorite starter is the tamales, chips and salsa. Typically get Carne Asada and Shrimp tacos. The steak is tender and flavorful. Definitely grab your girls, get a seat at the bar and love your best life! If there mariachi band is playing even better!!

The restaurant was extremely busy, so I expected a bit of a wait. However, the service was much slower than expected. It took a long time for our food to arrive, and one of the four kids' meals we ordered never came out. After waiting around 45 minutes, instead of apologizing or trying to resolve the issue, the manager approached us and immediately became argumentative about how many kids' meals had been ordered. I wasn't looking for a confrontation--I simply wanted the missing meal. I actually had to stop the conversation and tell him that if he came over just to argue, I wasn't interested. That interaction really left a bad impression. As for the food, it was a mix of highs and lows. The blue crab dip was easily the standout of the meal--rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. It's absolutely worth ordering. The edamame was also well prepared and made for a great appetizer. Unfortunately, the gnocchi was the complete opposite. It arrived ice cold, lacked flavor, and was one of the most disappointing entrées I've had. For roughly $45 between my meal and wine, I expected a much better experience. While I appreciate that they offered a Kids Eat Free promotion, the long wait, missing meal, and poor handling of the situation overshadowed that benefit. The restaurant itself has a sleek, contemporary atmosphere that's great for groups or families, but the lack of attentive service and the manager's approach to customer concerns made the experience far less enjoyable. I hope they've improved since my visit, because the blue crab dip alone deserves recognition, but based on this experience, I wouldn't be in a hurry to return.

    4 1/2 stars! We came here for our anniversary recently, dressed to the nines and expecting the…read morerestaurant to be ... more formal and dressy than it was. There were plenty of people who didn't look even 'business casual' much less the 'dressy' listed here in Yelp. We were seated and got our drink order in ... and waited several minutes. We had already decided on our orders when our server first arrived at the table, bearing menus listing the courses for the prix fixe five course 'Taste of Bacan' menu. (There was also a prix fixe seven course offering, but no menu for it??) We changed our minds and went with the five course offering ... and waited several more minutes for the first course to arrive. (Fortunately, the delays in service ceased after this.) The food was amazing! First up was a Lobster Burrata Tostada, on a little four inch crispy corn tortilla with sweet notes from the passion fruit. Next up was the Florida Snapper, beautifully cooked, with a loose mofongo and fennel shreds, but served on a bed of curry sauce which was too spicy for us. It was at about this point when the Bread Service we added showed up: a good-sized loaf of warm bread, heavily seasoned on top, paired with a chorizo/ricotta spread that I didn't care for. Then the Pork Belly, so soft and delicious. The last entree was the Carne Asada, served medium rare (off-putting to those of us who prefer our meat cooked), but delicious when eaten with the salsa and corn side. We finished up with the Tres Leches cake. I'm not usually a fan of Tres Leches, but this again was superb, contained in a dark chocolate shell, garnished with little chocolate/crispy rice balls. I appreciated that they had zero-proof mocktail options, and tried the El Dorado. I didn't care for it, though, as the drink changed flavors twice as I worked through the layers, and none of them were particularly tasty. Service started out very slow, but improved once the food started coming. My soda was refilled proactively, and the descriptions of the courses were interesting.

The service was incredible to start, but slowly fizzled out as the meal went on. The cadence that goes with a tasting menu went completely out the window as the second half of the course took twice as long as the first half. The wine pairing was exceptional, highly recommend it. Now the real problem, the food. The food was good. A couple items were really good. But honestly nothing was great! There is a lot of potential here, but this place is truly bordering on not being worth the cost. I wanted to have a different experience. In fact, this was the first restaurant we experienced once in town because I'd been waiting. It unfortunately was not worth the wait. You won't hate your experience here, but you may feel like it wasn't worth the money.

The ambiance and feel of the bar is very "sultry" and "intimate." The mood lighting, dark paneling/interiors paired with the bar itself being lit to be the center of attention, lends itself to the secretiveness and LURE that a modernized speakeasy would provide. I truly enjoy stepping foot into this little hidden, but NOT so hidden, gem (which can be accessed from the interior to Talay). Service can be slow at times - especially when they are busy. However, the staff is usually always gracious, helpful, and willing to serve. The few great mixologists I've met there have also been very willing to break down how they make their drinks and really give us a glimpse into their world. So, I'm appreciative of that. That is not something that you can always expect at bars. As for the drinks (and food I'll glaze over), I am usually not left disappointed. I appreciate that seasonally they play with their drink menu and introduce new cocktails. I also love a handful of their signature drinks on the menu. This may be the only bar I've had a drink with Aperol in it that I actually ENJOYED (and not tolerated). The pricing can get high depending on what you order, but for the area and the going rate of a night out, they hold their own. Definitely don't pop into Noir if you are looking for an AFFORDABLE cocktail experience because the tab will creep up on you. The food is OKAY. They share a kitchen with Talay and offer some items not on the Talay menu - which is nice. However, I rarely eat when I visit, so the few times I have, it's been okay. Nothing to truly brag home about. I am happy, though, that they did start offering food because in the very beginning (when they first opened), that was not an option. Anyways, Noir Bar is GREAT (to me)! I will keep coming here and recommending it to others. It's also great for a date night or night out with your friends. It's in a decent location - but please take heed of parking in this area, as it can be challenging to find FREE street parking. However, there is parking available all around and in various garages nearby.

The vibe here is dark, intimate, and gives off a chic city nightlife feel. They offer both a full cocktail menu and a happy hour menu. They also offer a Thai tapas menu, which we unfortunately didn't get to try because we were already stuffed from dinner at Talay, but the menu looked amazing and gives us another reason to come back! The drinks are unique, creative, and very well crafted. We ordered the Celestial Bloom, and it was absolutely delicious! It was beautifully balanced and left us wanting to come back just to try more of their cocktails. Definitely a great spot for drinks before or after dinner!
