The shopping center has a good-sized parking lot, but there aren't always spots near Salt & Lime. We were a larger group, and the waiter was friendly, although not the most attentive with drink refills or remembering what someone at the table requested. Food wasn't brought out to the table at once; it was a dish here, one there, and one took considerably longer than everyone else's. It would have been nice if there had been some communication about the delay. I ordered the Key Lime Mahi Mahi again, as it is a favorite dish of mine, and it was delicious as usual. Hopefully the service will be better on future visits.

Additionally, I ordered a corona and since it was draft, not sure it it was or something else, but it didn't taste like a corona I have ever tasted. The service was excellent. We were waiting for the rest of our party of 6, but the server worked with us. Once we ordered the food came out quickly and prepared the way we anticipated. Except, I expected soft tortillas and not crispy. San Jose has Karoke night on Thursdays so it added to the fun. I liked the set up of the dining area. Plus there is outdoor seating but last night would have been dangerous with temps in the mid 30s. Still it was nice time with my kids and grandkids! Thank you San Jose!

On this day there were a couple of large groups at lunch (maybe end of the year parties) and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.

I ordered the Mexican flag enchiladas. Really was not all that impressed even though it looks nice. The service here leaves a lot to be desired, very slow and screwed up the receipts. I also thought the price was way higher than what it should have been for the amount of food they give you. My girlfriend ordered cauliflower tacos, and the cauliflower wasn't even cooked the whole way through, plus it had very little flavor. I would probably give this place another chance, but I really don't know what I would order because they're really wasn't anything on the menu that looked all that enticing.

If my mom (who was neither Mexican nor good at cooking) attempted to make a Tex-Mex style dinner,…read morethis feels like what she would've come up with, using her trusty arsenal of store-brand white american cheese; off-brand Wonder bread; and the cheapest greying meat, from the cheapest grocery store, roused from its long slumber in a cling-wrapped styrofoam bed in the freezer. The tortillas did indeed taste like white bread, somehow. The cheese was an unidentifiable white cheese-like substance. The meat was completely flavorless and seemingly unseasoned, though, it did, at least, taste and look like it likely came from a recognizable member of the cattle family (rather than some other, less ideal, quadrupedal sources of red meat). The chips had the traditional shape and color of chips in a typical Tex-Mex restaurant. Despite the reassuring outward appearance, however, they were also oddly lacking in flavor, other than a strange movie popcorn-like aftertaste. The salsa unexpectedly seemed to have been fashioned from actual tomatoes, rather than the usual jarred mush found at most casual Tex-Mex restaurants. While normally this would be a good thing, here it meant that the salsa was being prepared in-house (or shipped in from the Chuy's warehouse of condiments). Though the salsa was acceptably mediocre, it benefitted from tasting a little better than other things on the table, which also helped me partially forgive its remarkable resemblance to gastric effluvium.

We had breakfast here with our baby and asked for a well-cooked scrambled egg for her. The waitress…read morebrought an egg that was still coated in raw egg all over, one of the runniest most undercooked eggs I've ever been served, no exaggeration. I asked if they could cook it more, which I never do, I never send things back bc I'm afraid of insulting the person's cooking skills who is handling my food. But this egg was still clucking. She took the plate, walked into the kitchen, we heard chopping sounds for 2 seconds and she brought it immediately back. She was gone with it for seriously under 30 seconds. She set it on the table and announced "I didn't want to turn it brown" and walked away. The egg was exactly the same doneness, but now chopped up. I don't know why I let this peer pressure make me second guess my judgment and intuition, but we were traveling due to a family tragedy and I was just tired and stressed and needed to feed my hungry baby. So I fed her the egg. Halfway through, my breakfast was brought to the table with a well-cooked egg on the plate, so I swapped hers for mine. I guess Border just feels really strongly that adults need fully cooked eggs and babies need raw ones. Later that night, my baby vomited. Then again. And again. She vomited 7 times all through the night. I vomited once. Diarrhea all day yesterday for both of us. We didn't get to go see our sick family member, for whom we flew across the country. It was just such a huge stroke of bad luck that I felt the need to share... I hate to ream a humble business, but serving a raw egg to somebody for a baby is not cool. Especially when they asked it well cooked. And then to refuse to cook it more when asked. By a mom who is trying to protect her baby. And to pretend they had cooked it more when they clearly hadn't. Please listen to mothers when we advocate for our children. We truly know best for them.

First thing I noticed was how nice the staff was. They greeted me on my way in and were more than…read morehappy to help with any questions I had. They were also quick to help people place orders at the register when the kiosk got a little backed up. However, I do recommend using the kiosk because they have a "secret menu" that isn't written on the normal menu. Plus you get to see pictures of every single item which helps if you don't know what you want. While ordering I couldn't help but think the tacos were overpriced (at least $6 for a single taco), but when the tacos came out it validated the price a little. Each taco was piled up with filling and they are a little larger than typical street tacos. Both of the tacos I had were delicious. The meat tasted very well seasoned and the toppings were pretty fresh.

Ordered a bowl and a salad with grilled shrimp, chips and guacamole and small tots. The salad was just not good, the shrimp were barely cooked (see photo) and loaded with so many onions and just a weird combo of flavors. The tots were so salty, the bacon tasted off (sort of metallic?) and we didn't even finish the half portion! The chips were extremely salty as well. Honestly, the best part of the lunch was my drink and I made that! I mixed horchata with the cold brew and it was good. A really crummy lunch that set us back FIFTY DOLLARS. Crazy expensive for lunch, but especially for a lousy meal. Plenty of parking, clean ladies room and well lit restaurant. We are done with Torchy's, just not worth the money.

The salad included chicken, cucumber, pickled red onion, corn, crispy tortillas & oregano dressing. The salad was fresh and crisp. I really enjoyed this. I'd get double meat going forward. I also order myself carnitas (delicious) and one chicken quesadilla for my Mom. My mom is such a picky eater but she really enjoyed the quesadilla and was talking about how meaty it was for days. I'm happy with my purchase and I look forward to returning. I do recommend dining at Little Rey if you're in the area.

"They have all the smoke"…read more My first time in the Ironworks area, and me like! Free parking and crossing guards directing traffic - wonderful! Ironworks is a mixed use environment with vendors hawking wears under canopies, alongside brick and mortar stores, shops, and restaurants. Little Rey's (IMO) is Alpaca Restaurant meets Mexican in the best way possible. The line for the food was a solid 30-45 minute wait. So don't be like me, have a seat, pull out your phone, use the code on the table, view menu, and order and pay. However, they have employees who greet customers and begin your drink menu while you wait in line. We ordered the half chicken, Gringa tacos, guacamole, and queso. Little Rey has a pretty extensive salsa bar, with approximately 7-8 varieties. The salsa bar spans the gambit from mild, mid-hot, smoky, and creamy options. The star of the show is the smoked chicken! So good with the corn tortilla, green salsa, grilled onions and grilled jalapeño! Moving forward I'll add an order of the chicken taco to get the perfect bit without the mess! The Gringa/Picadillo taco was good. And while I am a Gringa, and I love a Taco Bell sour cream situation, that almost mayonnaise flavor didn't sit well with my soul. However, the meat itself was super flavorful. I'd ditch the flour tortilla for corn , and opt for another salsa, add pico, and I think we are there. We weren't a fan of the rice, if I'm being honest - but will try again. While I didn't try any alcoholic beverages on this round, I'm stoked to try on my next visit. Plenty of seating, but can get awkward if there are long lines. The party is outside, so that maybe your best bet. Looking forward to grabbing a group of friends for round dos! Northern Mexican: 4.4444
