We had an absolutely wonderful experience at West Elm in El Paso, and a huge part of what made our…read morevisit so enjoyable was the exceptional service from Jorge and Alissa! From the moment we were seated, they were warm, welcoming, attentive, and incredibly personable. They struck the perfect balance of being available whenever we needed something without ever making us feel rushed. They were knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience. Jorge and Alissa went above and beyond to make us feel taken care of. Their positive attitudes, attention to detail, and friendly personalities really stood out. It's not often that you come across servers who make you feel like they truly enjoy what they do, but that was definitely the case with both of them. They made our meal feel less like simply going out to eat and more like a genuinely enjoyable experience. The food was wonderful, but outstanding service is what makes you want to come back and Jorge and Alissa absolutely delivered. They are both a tremendous asset to West Elm, and I hope their hard work and hospitality are recognized because they deserve it! We left with big smiles and a great impression of the restaurant; additionally, the busing personnel are always accommadating and willing to speak with us as well. We will definitely be coming back, and we would be thrilled to have Jorge and Alissa take care of us again. Thank you both for making our visit so memorable!

Let me start by saying that the ELEMI restaurant in Eastlake is definitely a step above your…read moreaverage Tex-Mex taqueria in El Paso and, in my opinion, a much stronger culinary experience than the Elemi taqueria in Cimarron. The restaurant offers a cozy contemporary feel with a minimalist modern touch. The white oak and high ceiling also contributes to a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Right from the start, I loved the presentation of the Pepino--refreshing, creative, and unlike anything I've seen elsewhere. The Aguachile Callo de Hacha was outstanding, easily one of the highlights of the evening. If you're visiting for the first time, I highly recommend ordering the following tacos - Campesino ($7) and the Pato al Pastor ($8); both are packed with original flavors and showcase the chef's creativity. Their Jamaica drink is also excellent and pairs beautifully with the food. Chef Emiliano Marentes has deservedly earned national recognition and James Beard acclaim, which naturally creates high expectations before you even walk through the door. So that is always creating an issue as many of us expect perfection. The restaurant was moderately busy, with some people waiting to be seated. The biggest disappointment, however, was the pace. We waited approximately 25 minutes for our food despite the restaurant not appearing especially full. Then came the most unexpected wait of the evening--the restroom. Standing in line for more than 15 minutes just to use the bathroom is something I've never experienced at a restaurant. That took away from what had started as a very enjoyable evening. Service was efficient without any fluff. Overall this is a solid 4.0/5.0.

The humidor is about 1/4 full but our aficionados found good cigars to enjoy. There was one girl working alone for awhile and she did good in spite of having to make drinks, sell cigars and serve. A second girl arrived later and the first girl sat down at the bar with a customer so we assumed she was off but when we went to the bar for a second round she got up so maybe just taking a break. Good drinks, cold beer.

My husband was thrilled because he has been on a journey with mezcals recently, even so far as buying a book on their history, etc. We are planning to visit Oaxaca later this year. Stay tuned for reviews from there! The owner quickly recognized my husband's enthusiasm and knowledge. He talked with us quite a bit and even shared some photos of his visit to the distillery in the photos. We ordered huaraches carnitas and it was so freaking good!! Warning, their red salsa is the warmer of the two. If you can't handle heat, you may want to skip that one. They have live music quite often and have a nice stage and sound system. We were there at an odd time so it was quiet. I can imagine it's lively at night. We would definitely return if we find ourselves in El Paso again.

This review is a 4.5 (for me) but I'm rounding up to five stars. Origami Sake Bar is a nice…read moreaddition for El Paso! It's been around for a few months. I had no idea it existed until recently. It's a fun and classy speakeasy inside of Tin Man on George Dieter. They keep their location hidden on social media...I guess because it's a speakeasy? I think the concept is cute and fun. I almost felt like I wasn't in El Paso anymore! They have cute Japanese knick knacks and decor. There's only two tables and a small bar area. This is probably why it's hard to get a reservation. You can make a reservation by messaging them on Facebook or Instagram. If they don't get back to you, give them a call at Tin Man. They're open Thursday-Saturday from 7pm to 2 am and Sundays from 2-9 pm. Before Origami Sake Bar, I've only had sake a couple of times straight and...it was super strong. It almost knocked me out of my seat! This is coming from a lady who could drink Tequila like water. Those days are long gone btw. However, this sake bar changed those previous experiences for me. Why? Because they offer a combination of sweet and strong drinks. I had to have a sweet drink so I went with the Grogu. Forgive me, I can't remember what exactly was in it. If you like boba tea, this is the drink for you. It had a lot of boba balls in it. The Yoda stein holds a lot of drink and it stays cold. I was good with just this one drink. FYI: The drinks are not happy hour prices. My tab was $17 and change for one drink. I almost asked for a growler of Sangria from Tin Man instead. I'm not saying the drink was bad because it wasn't. I'm sure I was paying for the novelty of the stein and bar. The place doesn't offer any food. You can eat before or after...or bring your own. It would be cool if they offered Japanese snacks or cheese boards, something. Tin Man doesn't offer food so I guess it's the same here. Thank you for recommending Origami Sake Bar, Jenny L.! Thank you for also inviting me! :) Check it out if you get a chance.

Sake it to me El Paso! Yes... there's a hidden Sake bar speakeasy in El Paso, and it's gorgeous, along with my girlfriends that came out to check it out with me. It was a bit difficult to get an RSVP, I messaged them thru their FB page, but they didn't respond so I ended up calling the location which was Tin Man and they got me connected to RSVP. After that they were super responsive and gracious. We ended up having 8 ladies show up but at different times and they were nice enough to let us stay until the next reservation showed up at 10pm. We had a great time, drinks were strong and unique. Only things I would recommend to change are getting a better menu QR, it made you download the menu instead of just showing you, and not mixing the popping boba and regular boba in the drinks as it's a HUGE choking hazard, especially when drinking alcohol. I would definitely recommend this place for a cute night out or date night. They let you bring outside food in and we brought Riva's carne asada fries and nachos. Make sure you have a reservation though. Something new and fun in El Paso. Come out and #supportlocal Origami Sake Bar

We all ordered different dishes, so I got to try a little bit of everything, and honestly, everything was so good. The standouts for me were definitely the birria and the flautas. I also ordered a jamaica gin martini and loved it! I love how big the space is because they were able to accommodate our family of 10 very easily, no problem at all. Always a great experience at Morra Mia!
