Also got an order of Lobster Birria to go, and while it was very good, I think I prefer non-elevated, down-home-style birria. I didn't think there was enough cheese and the depth of flavor that's in traditional birria wasn't there for me. Nonetheless, I think this is one of the best restaurants in the city and my friends and I have talked about coming monthly.

This is my second time here and both times have been so good. We came as a party of 3 and left so happy and full. I love Mexican food holy moly We got the queso and octopus shrimp ceviche as starters. The queso was 3 cheeses: American, cotija, and Oaxacan. They heated it up under a salamander so it was nice and crispy on top, while being gooey all throughout. Also came with a couple of nice salsas. The ceviche was not my favorite because I don't prefer raw(ish) octopus, but the squid ink sauce was very flavorful. For our mains the 3 of us shared the red snapper, tuetano with lamb, and the mixteco poblano pepper. Red snapper had a nice charred smoky flavor from being grilled. Was more meaty than flaky in texture. It was our second time getting the mixteco poblano pepper and it hits. Highly recommend eating with some of the salsa as well if you get queso. The duck carnitas in it wasn't particularly duck-y today, but still very good. Best dish is definitely the tuetano. The bone marrow is so incredibly flavorful with the blue corn tortillas. Add some of the pickled onions and it's hard to go wrong with that flavor combo of salt, fat, and acid. if you're going to order one thing, I'd order this and share with a friend and tbh it's enough to be filling. For dessert we got the volcan de chocolate (basically lava cake). The lava cake and coconut ice cream combo is fantastic. You get bits of coconut flakes as you eat! Fair warning it isn't the brownie texture you may be used to, it's a bit more cakey. Amazing service the whole night! Almost got our cars booted because we forgot to validate until 1.5 hours in but luckily we were fine. The staff let us know they have been booting cars though so be wary!

I ordered a trio of tacos so I could try a few, the tacos were phenomenal. The meat was seasoned well and plentiful in the taco. I wanted to like the chimichurri taco more, but like some others have mentioned the meat was a bit big when trying to get a bite. We needed to leave to get to the venue and once mentioning our time crunch the server pointed us in the best direction and let us out the back door.

The menu is extensive--almost a little overwhelming--but I already knew I was in the mood for tacos, so ordering was easy. The tacos arrived surprisingly fast, and the portion sizes were just right. My only critique is that the beef could have been seasoned a bit more to bring out additional flavor. Overall, though, the meal was satisfying, the service was quick, and the prices were very reasonable, making it a solid choice for a casual taco outing.

Typical Mexican overall. It wasn't terrible but it was very forgettable to me. Last time I went. I…read morewent inside at the bar and it took a minute to get some service but at least the server and the bartender who served me was nice. This spot is on Roswell road and hash Street parking so just keep that in mind. It's in a shopping plaza so there's plenty of parking everywhere for the most part. So the thing that is the allure about this spot is probably the setup. It's huge and spacious and has a lot of outside seating so if you want to do something on a nice day this is a good spot to go to. They actually have a main patio and a smaller patio so you really can't go wrong if you want to go outdoors. Fajita style nachos - The nachos are okay. Definitely not something that I would look to keep coming back for. The cheese was so soaked that the bottom of it that had the chips on there. That layer was pretty soggy. But the chicken was good. So that's something. Fries - The fries were great and had a perfect crisp to them. No complaints. Chips and salsa - nothing to write home about. Salsa was okay overall. Chips seemed decently fresh. Poblano pepper - The pepper was very forgettable. It was overly soggy and I almost can tell what it was when it was dropped off in front of me. Under all that there was a layer of cheese and pepper but I would definitely not get it again. Overall, this was an okay experience, but there's so many other places that are much better and have better presentation. If you want a quick fix with a nice view, this will be your spot to consider checking out, but just know that you can probably find other places that would hit in a couple more different apartments than this one.

I ordered the chimichanga, which came with rice and a little guacamole salad in a small taco shell. It was fine, but not memorable. I would try something else on my next visit.

It's in a small shopping area so there's free parking but just be aware the parking may not be the best. Because it shares it with a couple of other things. It's tall because it's two stories. So if you have a larger group setting, this would not be a bad option as well. It's very fun and very lively so you shouldn't have an issue with viewable views. The last time I went I went to the bar because I was just stopping in to grab something before I headed home. Food was pretty good though. I would actually get it again, well a couple of the things I did enjoy so details below for that. Chips and salsa - The chips and salsa were pretty good. Nothing major but I actually use the salsa a little bit on the tacos but the salsa was actually good and rich and had a little good of a flavor to it but it wasn't super spicy if you worried about that. Tacos de carnitas - I like the carnitas Taco, it wasn't as crispy and crunchy as I would like it to be but it had a good flavor to it. I guess I'm spoiled by real tacos pork belly taco LOL. But this was actually good too. Texas fajitas - The fajita was well put together, season really well, I have no complaints. I would actually get this over again. It came with all the accessories that you need, shells, rice, all the other things you would expect. Came out sizzling hot as a fajita. Should, lovely dish. Tacos al pastor - pastor was okay. I wouldn't rush to get it but it was tasty. Overall if you want some good and quick Tex-Mex type food, this is a really good spot. The bartenders are really cool and engaging so at least you'll have somebody to talk to if you go by yourself lol. But this is a really good option.

Plenty of…read moreparking around this free-standing building, in the corner of a small shopping center across from the QT. I ended up here at the suggestion of a local friend - he had indicated that the previous TexMex restaurant there was at this location wasn't pretty bad but since Lindo took over it's quite good. This is TexMex with the typical menu full of tacos, burritos, enchiladas and the like, with a free starting basket of chips and salsa. Honestly my expectations weren't great but as long as the food was fresh and the margaritas strong, I don't complain too much. I ended up being surprised. The chips were crisp and fresh and while the salsa is the typical American-style, still good with mild spice, tangy and easy. We also ordered a bowl of queso with extra jalapenos - and asked for more jalapenos. All of this was lapped up with strong Texas margaritas. While the tacos looked interesting, what caught my eye was the Make Your Own Combo - 2 items for $12. I choose the Chile Poblano (with chicken) and a burrito (also with chicken), which came with a side of refried beans and rice. These flavors were quite good - the polano really needed another minute on the flat top - the film was off the pepper but it was a tiny bit too crunchy. The burrito was massive and quite satisfying. Overall, great value and quite filling. While the food was great, the service was hoe-hum - we were seated without setups and then had to ask several times to get utensils - we didn't get a fork or napkins until our entrees were delivered. Our server seemed more interested in playing with his phone than actually working - he spent most of his time noticeable hanging out need the kitchen (there's a knee-wall along the back wall from the restrooms to the kitchen). We waited and waited for our check and finally had to get up and try to get out - I tracked him down and the check was still reeling out of the printer. Service 3/5. Food 4.5/5 - rounded up to 4/5.

Because nothing hurts worse than falling in love with a dish only to have it betray you on your next visit. **My verdict:** Big burrito, low price, reliable flavor, and late-night convenience. And yes, a DRIVE THRU!
