    Modelo and frozen margarita $10.00
    A. Laura M.

    Wait staff wasn't very friendly. Hardly didn't check up on us. We went in at 3:00 pm just in time for happy hour.

    Gumbo

    Definitely a must if your in area. Gumbo was fresh and loaded with proteins of all types. Keeping in mind true gumbo was used to clean out frig. Shrimp was not what I expected but surprisingly really good. Tea was take home great. Staff was uncomfortable waiting on old white guy but she was superb

    Tostada de Ceviche for 2
    Brisa B.

    My boyfriend was craving ceviche, so I did my Yelp scrolling and landed on Seafood Shack! I've always passed it driving down Northwest Hwy but never stopped to try, it didn't disappoint! The inside is so pretty and bigger than I thought, and the servers were nice and attentive. I believe they speak mostly spanish but had no problem understanding us "no sabo kids" lol. The ceviche tasted very fresh and it was seasoned really well. I loved the big cucumber slices with tajin as well, my boyfriend and I finished it quick! The fried shrimp was so good and the fries were tasty, all seasoned well. My boyfriend got the big fajita plate and it came with rice and all the fixings; so delicious! Overall we'd definitely come back and probably with friends! We didn't try the drinks but they looked sooo good, a big bar/cocktail menu is a plus!

    Shrimp and sausage boil!!!! So good and worth it every time.

    I recommend this place 10/10 every time. Food was on point as always. The ambiance is perfect. Not so loud you can't talk.

    I've only been here twice but each time was fantastic! Our server was a younger gentleman both times and he was super friendly. He was patient with our larger group and offered many suggestions. This time we got the Fried Calamari with Fried Jalapeños. It is divine! They cornmeal batter is amazing and does not slide off the calamari. I also like that each ring was fresh. I've been to places where it was overly fried and almost leathery.....you won't get that here. I also ordered the shrimp Flautas which were a suggestion from my previous visit. They hit every spot! The shrimp were fresh and it was wrapped in cheese and a little bit of jalapeños. I didn't find it spicy at all so maybe take a chance and try it? Also, it comes with rice, the menu doesn't say so but I was able to ask and have fried corn nuggets as a substitute. My mom ordered the large Caldo de Mariscos (seafood soup). I think it had fish, squid, and shrimp (head on). The bowl was massive! She ordered a large thinking it would be a bowl size vs a cup size like normal restaurants. She said it was worth every penny. We ended up having to take a good portion home. It took two tall containers to fit what was left. I forgot to add that the drinks are pretty strong so make sure you order some food :) And the vibes are killer! They were playing 2010-2022 reggaeton. Check the menus for their daily specials. I think happy hour is all day or at least that's what the server said on the tequila night I think. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

    A random recommendation from the Embassy Hotel Management and I wandered into absolute perfection. Best ceviche I have ever enjoyed. The Cheese & Shrimp Enchiladas were bathed in a sauce that is world class. I cannot recommend this gem enough.

Our cocktails were all good - and the appetizers were very good. We had the crispy pork belly and the tostaditas with barbacoa. The crispy pork belly was especially delicious and I would order as my own dinner in the future. It comes with onions and sauces and corn tortillas and it's to die for - so crispy and flavorful. We ordered the Bistec enchiladas and they were good but not as good as the appetizers. They give you a variety of sauces when you're seated that you keep throughout the meal - from mild to spicy but I would say the "spicy" is on the mild side. Still good and flavorful but not unapproachable for most ppl. We had the Campechana dessert and it was a little strange. It was basically a vanilla Icecream cake with a crispy waffle cone like layering that was really hard to break until it sat a while. It was oddly addicting but also not that good? I can't explain it. We went to the cigar lounge area after dinner and had Mexican espresso martinis and watched football before heading home. There was little smoke smell but very minimal until it got later. Around 8:30 (on a Saturday night) ppl started smoking cigars and they opened the side windows and being 90degrees right now - it became less enjoyable so we decided to end the night. In the fall that room would probably be quite lovely with the windows open. They have comfortable seating and fire pits. Really more of a 4.5 out of 5.

God bless the people who came up with Las Palmas…read more First of all, please never change the queso- it is heaven sent and we always take it to-go (I'm NEVER leaving the rest behind) and it tastes even better the next day. This queso is probably the best I've ever had. BTW it is a LIL spicy but I can let that slide. Another great appetizer option would be the Nachos Al Carbon with wagyu. Super good too & honestly you can even order it for just one person as a main dish-- the serving size is big enough. BUT THE REAL STAR OF THE SHOW AT LAS PALMAS ARE THE WAGYU FAJITAS!!! Incredible. Comes with flour or corn tortillas, beans, rice, and obviously the works: sour cream, guacamole, lettuce. You know the vibes. Speaking of vibes, they're always there at Las Palmas. It is always busy but I genuinely don't care and never mind waiting an hour and a half for our table. It's worth it. This place is a confirmed staple in Dallas.

There was a time when Meso Maya was the go-to for upscale Mexican in Dallas. The culinary scene in Dallas has changed so much that it is not longer the case. But the downtown Meso Maya remains an icon and continues to deliver consistently good food and service. The restaurant still has the warm ambience and remains in good condition even after all these years. It was too hot to sit on the patio so we ate indoors. The interior is smaller than I remember. The restaurant still starts you out with complimentary chips which are strips, and a smoky, spicy salsa. it was great. I started with the a mescal margarita and it was excellent. The kid had Topo Chico and the wife had Prosecco. Everyone enjoyed their drink. For entrees, the wife had her favorite, the vegetable budin, which is like a lasagna. The flavors were deep and rich. She loved it. I tried the carne tacos and they were excellent! The meat was tender and smoky. The beef had been marinated for a wonderful flavor. Good quality with no fat. I usually avoid ordering beef at restaurants because I often get more fat than meat which I detest, but not at Meso Maya. Our server Luis was very good. Present when we wanted and not when we did not. Overall, the restaurant was a hit on every level--ambience, service, and food. We like the downtown location the best and will return.

Original review: I really wanted to love this place, and I was so close to doing so. The good: the ambiance was cute and fun. Loved the decorations, the bar is big and takes up a lot of the area where some of the tables are making it a little crowded but that's not a big deal. They had a performer there that night and that was cool. The item we were so excited to try was the biggest disappointment, the chicharon! It looked so good but it was so bland and chewy. We thought it might have been undercooked and ordered another second and asked them to cook it longer but alas it was like chewing on nothing. And that is the common denominator with all the food here. It was so bland. The only item I enjoyed was the jalapeño and cheese sausage. The salsa was bland. The meats were bland. The chicken was overcooked and dry. The drink in the bowl was good. But other than that the meal was a disappointment which is truly sad because we were looking forward to the meal, and it was pricey too. Had the food been good we wouldn't have been bothered by the price. We needed some flavor that day.
