The food was great served quickly!! This place is the definition of texmex food !! Awesome !

Chorizo, bean, and potato taco in flour tortilla
Melissa D.

Came to grab 2 tacos to go before work. Ordering was fast and easy with the cashier. Tacos were ready in less than 5 minutes! I ordered 1 chorizo/bean/potato and 1 carne guisada with cheese. I only ate the chorizo taco and was full after that. It was a very packed taco. I gave the carne guisada taco to a coworker who said she really enjoyed it. I'll be back for more taco tastings lol. Came back again and ordered a plain barbacoa taco and a country sausage with egg taco. Both on flour. The sausage was really good and these tortillas are the fluffy kind I like. The barbacoa wasn't oily like other places and had good flavor on its own. There were tiny pieces of fat but I didn't even ask if they had all meat. It didn't take away from the taco though. Still good for some breakfast tacos

Ordered seafood plate with fish, shrimp and oysters. Only to find out that they don't have any seafood! I ordered a small caldo de res. Came with one big tortilla de mail. It was good.

Ruby Taco
Mark C.

Second time here. It's a find. First time had a flautas plate where my only knock was that there was not enough of it. This time had the Ruby taco-- $4.29 but worth it. Bean coated taco with a thin layer of steak nestling an entire sausage and a thick slice of bacon topped with onion and a grilled jalapeño. Fantastic. Believe it or not a squeeze of the lemon they give you works.

Piedras Negras Cafe is a hidden gem! The food is fantastic but what makes this place special to me is that it is family owned and operated. Even the employees that work there, seem to be part of the family which makes you as the customer feel part of the family! This culture starts with Mama Avila who you see hustling hard for her team and customers! I will go out of my way to come here!

Average. The sausage tasted like a hot dog. The Chicharron was flavorless. Really nice inside. The salsa was nice and hot. Cheap prices.

Live in Tulsa and have one of the best cocktail bars in the country out there (believe it or not),…read moreso I'm particular about cocktail spots nowadays. That said, this place is great. Had the Wild Duck which was the experience the bartender who came up with the drink said it would be. Can tell they were true mixologist that are serious about their craft. Was kind of busy and loud but it was Friday night so what else would you expect. Definitely coming back.

Take me to the underground to a hidden place next to the river walk!…read more It's a speakeasy so you shouldn't notice it right away but if your looking for it go to the back parking lot of where the address takes you close to the river walk look at the building that's right next to the parking lot a bit away from the road then look below and you'll see some tables and a door go down the stairs to get inside! They had a bunch of different cocktails inside lots of unique options and some not so much but where it was all about was the specials one in particular the Dunkle Sandwich as it tasted like Peanut butter and jelly like it was soo good up there with one of the best shots I've ever had soo flavorful and just good like this was by far my favorite thing I drank this night! Our other drinks were yummy too don't get me wrong as each of them has key components that made them taste amazing while I did forget the names just know that each one of them was yummy! On this particular night they had a mentalist wondering around doing magic he was fun and added to our evening here so that was a nice touch! Our bartender was awesome and quick to get us our drinks and I must say everything was mixed very well! Overall awesome spot for date night we both enjoyed our time here and hopefully we get to make it here again at some point because you can't go wrong with a chill speakeasy!

OMG I cannot say enough good things about this place! We were in San Antonio for a conference and…read morewanted to get out of the hotel for a dinner. Firstly, we had trouble getting an uber at first and when I called the staff was very friendly and were able to hold the table a little longer which I appreciated. The menu is a mix of Asian Fusion small plates and I would have loved to have had more of a sampling of the menu but it wasn't that large of a party. The cocktails were not too sweet and perfectly balanced. The Fist of Fury was so refreshing and the Yuzu margarita was delightful! The plates come when they are ready and I have to say the food came really quick! All of it was fantastic! Surprisingly the shredded vegetable salad was amazing and one of my favorite dishes! The tamarind glaze on the Chicken Karaage was not overpowering and so tasty. The service was amazing and the vibes of the restaurant were a lot of fun. The bathrooms were down the stairs and there was a little bar off to the side. Would definitely go back! I couldn't stop talking about it the next day to anyone that would listen.

Great food, although the salmon was not as fresh as I'd hoped... Appetizers were excellent... Fast…read moredelivery... However, the hostess was so focused on keeping nine empty tables for reservations yet we finished our dinner by the time those guests arrived and she put us next to the AC vent where it was extra hot with the outdoors of 90°F... That is, don't go if you don't have reservations.
