You can pick up/pay in drive thru. They place is small and gets crowded. Nothing fancy but good. So I prefer to go. The cost was expensive for this place $36. The snapper was good but barely was seasoned. My hubby forgot condiments. The sauce plus salt and pepper woke it up. It comes with rice and salad.

My friend absolutely loves this place, and I go because I love her... but the day she lets me…read moreconvince her to head further north or even south, it's over. My biggest gripe is the lack of a traditional seafood boil spread. No eggs, no potatoes (or maybe it's corn?), no hushpuppies, and they only offer head-on shrimp, etc. The wings took -- no exaggeration -- about 45 minutes for a count of six on a moderately busy day. There's also no hand-washing sink or station like most seafood boil spots have, which just feels odd. Overall, it doesn't give "seafood restaurant," it gives Tex-Mex mariscos. Very limited non-alcoholic drink options too. If you're here for the shrimp/crab only, great. Otherwise, there are better options.

Tables provided lots of room to eat . Gloves, bibs and lots of paper towels available for your use.

Kenny's Wood Fired Grill -- A Legendary Dining Experience!…read more Chef Kenny Bowers is a legend here in DFW, and Kenny's Wood Fired Grill is a perfect example of why! Five stars across the board! From the atmosphere and service to the outstanding food, this restaurant scores perfectly in every category. The ambiance is amazing! The dark, sophisticated interior, complemented by warm accent lighting, creates an inviting and comfortable dining experience. Nicole greeted us with a genuine smile and welcoming spirit before escorting us to our table. Our server, Felicity, was exceptional! She took the time to explain the menu, highlight the specials, and offer thoughtful recommendations. We took her advice and started with the delicious bread and a cup of chicken tortilla soup. What a great beginning! The soup was mouthwatering and bursting with flavor. For our entrée, we ordered the Caesar salad topped with blackened salmon. Absolutely outstanding! Without question, one of the best salads I've ever eaten! This was a lunch visit, and every aspect of the experience exceeded our expectations. Our next visit will definitely be for dinner! I wholeheartedly recommend adding Kenny's Wood Fired Grill to the very top of your must-try list. Go sooner rather than later! You'll quickly discover why Chef Kenny Bowers has earned his legendary reputation in the DFW dining scene. A truly memorable culinary experience! See you there!

The food is good, consistent, cheap, and authentic. They offer a huge selection of choices and the margaritas are huge. The only "complaint" is that sometimes it is too authentic and the waitresses do not speak English well, so it hard to ask questions. But everyone is nice and very helpful. read more

The chilaquiles were also a huge disappointment ($13) in both portion and presentation. There are competitors nearby that are cheaper, give you better portions, and honestly have better food, so I definitely did not expect this. I don't mind paying more when the food is worth it, but this was nowhere near worth the price. Definitely left disappointed and expected a lot more.

It had rice, beans, pico de gallo, cheese, sour cream, avocado, lettuce & your choice of meat. I got the bistek. My burrito was delicious! It was flavorful but the steak meat had too much fat. I think I had to spit out about 5 pieces of meat that was bristle fat. It was sad because the meat was seasoned so well! Which is really rare in these small Mexican restaurants. She brought a light green hot sauce that was only a little spicy. I put a lot on my burrito along with the warm salsa. My daughter liked her quesabirria tacos but I did not. There wasn't enough cheese and even with the. Consommé, the meat was kind of dry. The good thing about them was that they did have a lot of meat in them. Overall, it's a good place to eat but I will not go out of my way to eat here. They need to improve the quality of the bistec meat or cut off more of the fat.
