The tequila options are great if you drink. It is a loud spot though so if you don't like that it's not for you. My favorite server/bartender is Alex and David. I haven't tried much of the other options and when I did I wasn't a fan of the other food and that's coming from a Latina. I do love their chips and salsa and they have great cocktail options. Most bartenders are nice but some are not. I come at least once a week.

This place was packed and for our table of 6, we had to wait about 45 minutes. Pro tip (call ahead, you'll be happy you did). But we walked around the cute town and came back with a table waiting for us. To start, I had to try the iconic salad. My mom and her friends raved about how yummy the salad was and I have a sneaking suspicion why. That bad boy is packed to the brim with so much cheese. But yes it was totally yummy. My favorite part is they bring you a whole squirt bottle of vinaigrette dressing. Yes please! I totally understand the hype. The rest of our meal was ok. We got the fajitas which were seasoned great and the tortilla soup was nice. Drinks were totally great! I got the jalapeno margarita and white peach sangria (which had a little fizz - totally appreciated) Pleased with our visit to Espiau's! But even happier I got to see mom and her friends enjoy themselves at this historical spot.

Hostess was sweet and helpful with a large party (12) Server was passive aggressive and just not the kindest gal. When our food came out, it just wasn't good. My chile relleno tasted almost burnt, the sauce it came with was basically just the salsa they serve with chips. Beans tasted SO off and like they are canned. I honestly didn't even try the rice it looked really dry. Tortilla soup was flavorless. I've given this place a chance many times and each time i leave more disappointed than the last. :/

However we did order 2 lemonades and a cocktail that we never received and when we got the bill they were charged. After speaking with the server she did apologize and removed them from our bill. Accidents happen and they made it right.

Now all of a sudden the owner changed the pricing and said they're going to charge me for an entire extra Caldo instead. I understand prices can change, but charging for a whole extra soup when I'm just adding extras feels excessive and unfair, especially after consistently ordering the same thing for so long without any issue. It was disappointing to be treated differently after being a regular customer. Unfortunately, this experience left a bad impression. I will not be returning especially since there's a lot more places I can order Caldo.

What made the situation worse was the customer service afterward. The young lady with green hair was snippy and dismissive instead of being helpful or apologetic.
