Great food! I ordered the lamb korma with naan. It was delicious but I wish they gave me more naan…read more I also tried the paneer with naan. This place is very casual and so is the service. The women who worked their were very friendly but they were laid back (I can't think of a better way to explain it). I took off a star bc the restroom was atrocious. I already knew it wasn't gonna be cute based on how the place looked but my toddler had to use the restroom so I was forced to enter the 1980s hell hole they labeled as the restroom. Also I don't like how you had to choose between rice or naan for the dishes. I chose naan and had so much sauce left over. My husband experienced the same thing and he ordered his dish with rice. My advice: order to-go, choose naan, and then cook plain rice at home :)

(English down below)…read more Saliendo del aeropuerto DFW, busqué algún restaurante que tuviera sopa de mariscos; no sé de dónde vino el antojo. Entre varias opciones apareció El Viejón. Revisé el menú en línea y las reseñas, y manejé 13 minutos para encontrarme con una verdadera maravilla. Lo que me encantó: La atención fue excelente. Nos atendió Nidia, quien no solo es muy amable, sino también servicial y eficiente. Adolfo, el gerente, es un tipazo. Lo simple pero importante: Sus vasos de plástico, tan originales. La sencillez y el humor del menú. Los precios son justos para la cantidad que sirven. Lo que me dejó impresionado: La sopa de mariscos. Este tipo de sopas es sencillo: o la sabes hacer o no. Si no, termina siendo como la de Pappadeaux--para llorar. Esta sopa, en cambio, tiene mariscos abundantes (cangrejo, almeja, pulpo, pescado, camarón, calamar, etc.). El sabor es ligeramente dulce y cada nota se distingue con claridad. Muy recomendada. Una sola sopa es más que suficiente para una persona. Esto último lo aprendí demasiado tarde, después de haber pedido también el pulpo a la plancha, que terminé llevando para casa porque era demasiada comida. Mis únicas dos quejas: Las tostadas que ofrecen vienen con un pollo que parece atún, pero sabe a plástico. Mi perrito iba conmigo y ni siquiera él quiso comérselo, lo cual dice mucho. Algo raro ahí. La otra es la música: demasiado fuerte y del mismo género. Si el objetivo es honrar la cultura mexicana, hay muchísimos géneros entre los cuales escoger. Digo yo... no sé. Mejorar estos dos detalles llevaría la experiencia en El Viejón a otro nivel. ¡El Viejón, recomendadísimo! ------------------------------------- Leaving DFW airport, I found myself craving seafood soup--no idea where the craving came from. I searched for nearby options and El Viejón came up. I checked the online menu and reviews, then drove 13 minutes, only to discover a real gem. What I loved: The service was excellent. Nidia took care of us--she was not only kind, but also attentive and efficient. Adolfo, the manager, is a great guy. The simple but important things: Their plastic cups are surprisingly original. The menu is simple and humorous. Prices are fair for the generous portions they serve. What truly impressed me: The seafood soup. This kind of soup is simple: either you know how to make it, or you don't--and when you don't, it ends up like the one at Pappadeaux... something to cry about. This one, however, is loaded with seafood (crab, clams, octopus, fish, shrimp, squid, etc.). It has a subtle sweetness, and you can taste every distinct note. Highly recommended. One soup is more than enough for one person. I learned that lesson too late--after also ordering the grilled octopus. I had to get it to go because it was simply too much food. My only two complaints: The tostadas they serve come with chicken that looks like tuna but tastes like plastic. My dog was with me and wouldn't even eat it--which says a lot. Very strange. The other issue is the music: too loud and all from the same genre. If the goal is to honor Mexican culture, there are so many genres to choose from. Just saying--I don't know. Fixing these two things would take the experience at El Viejón to another level. El Viejón--highly recommended.

We were seated by the window, which gave us a great view and made for a wonderful atmosphere. I had the Molly Cosmo along with the Prime Rib Dip, and both were delicious! Our group also ordered the chicken sandwich, mac and cheese, the crab and Parmesan dip, and the pork chop with mashed potatoes. Every single dish earned a 5-star review from our table! I don't remember our server's name, but he was originally from the Los Angeles area if that helps identify him. He was fantastic, friendly, attentive, kept our drinks full, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. This was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Great food, great service, and a place we'll definitely be coming back to. 5/5 stars!

They have a horseshoe-shaped bar that's great for socializing and soaking in the vibe. The food at every Hudson House location I've been to has always been consistent and delicious, and this location is no different. This time, I ordered the French chicken, and it was just as tasty as always. The chicken was tender, never overcooked, and paired so well with that beautiful lemon beurre blanc sauce. And of course, the martinis--no matter which one you order--always come out ice cold and perfect. Would highly recommend this location for a more relaxed Hudson House experience.

They have a pretty good selection of beers and of liquors (I presume wine, too, but I didn't check). While there are "bourbon bars" with a wider bourbon selection or "gin bars" with a wider gin selection, they have an above average selection of each, and they don't charge absurd up charges for choosing the liquor you like. The bartender is very polite. There's ample seating at the bar, and you can also take your drink to some loungy-er chairs in the nearby part of the hotel lobby. All in all, a solid bar.

You walk in and the bar is to your right. It was about 6 and no one was at the bar. There was a group of guys discussing something over drinks in the lounge area but that was about it. The bartender came right up to my boyfriend and I. I told the bartender my boyfriend had never been to Texas so we tried out essentially every tap by sampling which was nice that he offered that up. After we tried each beer we decided on some options. The bartender went back to texting in the corner and we sat at the bar listening to the music playing in the open concept lobby/bar area We eventually took over the seating area that group was in because the couches looked more cozy than the bar. The happy hour advertised is not a thing anymore, they now have reverse happy hour from 9-10. The beers weren't too expensive as our tab was only $13 which I doable. The bartender disappeared from the bar for a fair amount of time which made me anxious because I used to be a bartender, I guess he trusted we wouldn't leave without paying. He didnt come check on us to see if we needed another beer but that was ok I guess. I went back up to the bar to cash out and that was that. This bar is good for a quick drink but I wouldn't probably go for a top notch bar experience.

The hostess spoke my language and escorted me right to my table. She made sure it was cleaned off and let our server know I was ready to eat. The best part about it all is it was a late-night reverse happy hour from 9 PM to close, only Thursday-Saturday. My server was very sweet and friendly. She took my drink and food order all at once. I like the ambiance this place brings, compared to all the locations I think this is my top. Me being traditional I ordered hot water ( the bulb is so posh), California roll, spinach artichoke dip, and the flatbread. Everything costs me around $40~

The vinaigrette leaned very citrusy, which overpowered the dish a bit, but I couldn't help thinking that adding some goat cheese would balance it beautifully and elevate the whole plate. Then came the pasta bolognese... and that's where things went downhill fast. The ricotta was completely flavorless, the meat was tough, and overall the dish lacked seasoning. It was honestly one of the most disappointing bolognese dishes I've had. One more thing that really stood out: the interior has carpet flooring. In a food establishment, that feels deeply unhygienic and off-putting. 1/5 stars -- a strong start with the appetizer, but the main course and overall experience completely missed the mark.
