Went here with my family. It was 16 of us. They were very accommodating. Anthony, our server, was great. He made sure to let the chef know of any allergies and made sure that none of the food that touched the table had that ingredient. The food came out in a timely manner and was delicious. I'd recommend it. It was a Sunday night and the DJ was great. It was almost as if the music was catered to us. Free valet parking, so no need to circle around trying to find a spot. read more

Te Deseo has a beautiful aesthetic, especially the courtyard seating area with the stunning blue tree and climbing roses. It's definitely a visually appealing space and great for photos. However, I do feel there are some details that need more attention to elevate the overall experience. The white outdoor seat cushions looked extremely dirty, which took away from the otherwise beautiful atmosphere. I completely understand that the somewhat outdoor seating comes with exposure to the elements, but a stronger maintenance routine or even replacing the white cushions with a floral or patterned fabric could make a huge difference. It would not only hide wear better, but also complement the vibrant colors of the roses and décor beautifully. As for the food, it was okay but not particularly memorable. We ordered the Thursday special, which includes the meat board with rice and beans. While the $99 price point for the meats is reasonable, the portions of rice and beans were only enough for one person at most, which was disappointing for a shared meal experience. I also ordered the halibut and was honestly surprised by how small the portion was for $54. In my opinion, it was not worth the price. Overall, it was an okay experience. The restaurant is undeniably pretty and great for ambiance and photos, but the food and value did not quite match the setting. Unfortunately, it's not somewhere I would personally return to. read more

Every time I come to this place I always wonder why I don't come more often, but then I have to deal with valet and I remember why. Everything is fine with their food and drinks but that valet is always a disaster you pay 40$ for VIP spot and they still move the car around. Unfortunately, unless valet is fixed I am not coming back because I can't have my experience ruined by valet that is ridiculous. I paid 40$ and they still wanted to charge me more because they cannot communicate between them. And what is the purpose of paying 40$ for the spot upfront if they still will move your car around. Fix the valet and you'll get better attitude from your guests. read more

first time dining at this beautiful restaurant. The scenery, decor, and service is impeccable. The drinks were tasty, and we even stopped in at the rooftop bar, which was really cool. Definitely a lot of beautiful things to see and immerse yourself in the ambience. As for the food, it was good however, I did not have a wow moment for any of the dishes. We tried the brisket tacos, lamb chops, and shrimp bruschettes. We did start with the queso, which was very good, but only served with a small amount of chips and we had to ask for more. The final dish of the meal was the arroz con Leche, which was pretty and the rice was perfectly cooked and seasoned, however, the toppings were a little over the top and overshadowed the beautiful rice. Overall, I could not give it above a three because the food for the price was average. read more

Came here for the end of happy hour on a Wednesday evening. Has a beautiful rooftop which was not busy so it was peaceful to have a conversation and because of the fall weather it was also nice to enjoy some fresh air. We ordered a couple of drinks and some apps off the happy hour menu. We absolutely loved the elote, it was such a great app to enjoy together and was really flavorful. They top it with Takis so it adds a little spicy crunch which I loved. We also ordered the pork belly tacos as well which were unfortunately lacking. The portion was small but, I could overlook that if the quality was just better of the overall dish. Not something I'd order again. The drink were good but, a little overly sweet. I'd be back to see if brunch is better given the space but, otherwise probably not. read more

Girls night! We made reservations and got a table outside! Now it was at 8:45 pm so it wasn't too hot but it was hot. We thought it was upstairs outside but it was on the side, I appreciated that the staff brought us additional lightening for our table and fixed the table bc it was wobbly. We had just had dinner elsewhere so we had some appetizers and drinks. I can't complain they did take care of us considering they were packed inside and we were outside. They had great music playing - my friends Shazammed most of it and added them to her playlist. Well definitely comeback. One day I hope to actually sit inside the main restaurant bc everytime I come I sit at the bar or outside . Just a happening place to be at I guess. TIL next time Deseo! read more

To be fair, I didn't try a whole lot of items on the menu. I did really like tuna tartar tacos. The chips for the guacamole was very salty for my liking. And the guacamole lacked flavor. The octopus was mid. But I have to say the service and ambience was great. I just wish I was more happy with my meal but again I didn't try enough of the menu ! read more

Te Deseo is, hands down, one of the most exceptional dining experiences. From the moment we walked in, the vibrant ambiance, impeccable decor, and lively energy transported us to what felt like an upscale Latin American oasis. Every detail of the restaurant was perfection. What truly made our evening unforgettable was our incredible server, Thalia. She went above and beyond to ensure our experience was flawless. Her warm smile and genuine enthusiasm immediately made us feel welcome, and her knowledge of the menu was outstanding. Thalia's recommendations were spot on, and she guided us through the menu with the expertise of someone who clearly loves what they do. We started with the ceviche, which was fresh and bursting with flavor, followed by quesadillas and nachos that were nothing short of divine. Each dish was beautifully presented and crafted with high-quality ingredients. Thalia's attentiveness was unmatched; she anticipated our needs without being intrusive, and her cheerful demeanor added such a personal touch to the evening. She made us feel like VIPs and turned an already amazing dinner into a truly special experience. Te Deseo is a must-visit for anyone seeking exceptional food, a fun and lively atmosphere, and top-tier service. And if you're lucky enough to have Thalia as your server, you're in for an absolute treat! To help us celebrate 15 years of marriage she also left us a nice treat at the end of the night. Thank you, Te Deseo and Thalia, for a night to remember. We can't wait to come back! read more

My fiancé brought me here for my birthday dinner! The vibes were giving very much grown and sexy. The lighting was very low and it was decorated beautifully. For starters we had the wedge salad and it was amazing!!!!! For entrees, I got the snapper and he got the lamb chops. We also got a side of potatoes, that green sauce was out of this world and added another layer of flavor to the dish. Service was a 10 as well. Thanks for making my birthday dinner wonderful. read more

We didn't go to eat, we went for the Latin night club. We were charged $19 for a screwdriver! I've never paid that much for a drink in Dallas. There was also no place to sit or even stand, it was crowded and the design is weird to walk around. Won't be going back read more

I first want to say a biggggg thank you to Anthony our server and to the whole te deseo team. I came here with my sister, sister in law and cousin for a girls nights to have dinner to celebrate my birthday this past Saturday. And from the start I was welcomed with a hand written post card to wish me happy birthday. After a few mins our server stopped by to surprise me with a complementary birthday shot. It was super delicious and unexpected. That was a pleasant surprise. We first started with some apps to share and everything was made fresh and super flavorful . We also all ordered drinks. My drink made with pineapple mix with coconut and few tropical flavors off the cocktail drink menu. The drinks were will decorated and tasty as well. My meal was the fajitas , with corn tortillas and an extra side of potatoes that have sausage. Everything was very well prepared, and serving size as well generous and still filling. To end the night we ordered two desserts the flan and churros. And as well it was very pretty, nicely decorated and as well very tasty. And as well fresh. The entire night was a pleasant experience. We were checked on regularly so service was perfect, the ambiance was beautifully decorated. I love plants so I felt right at home. Our table was next to the fire place so we were nice and warm and it set the mood. As the service came to an end I got one final surprise of a mini dessert cake. And a candle. So my group sang to me, I know dinning in downtown especially on a busy weeknd can be a hit or miss. But myself and everyone in my group non of us have any bad feedback. We all enjoyed our meals, the environment and setting was better than expected and we had no issues with our reservations. I felt taken care of, loved throughout the night feeling extra special with the service and the food was really great. I for sure plan to come back with my fiancé to celebrate our upcoming anniversary and or have date night. Highly recommended! Thank you again for a great experience. read more

Food was outstanding. Dessert was just ok, but everything else was phenomenal. The tapas menu is the way to go. Highly recommend!

This place is a bit hard to find parking for if you're not using valet but there are some street parking close by if you can find them. The service was slow for it not being too many people there. We were given the wrong order, our appetizers that we ordered well before ordering the food came out after our food did. I ordered wine and didn't get it so i had to ask again. The food itself was okay. I wasn't very impressed with the snapper nor broccolini. The flavor was mild for the snapper but it was nice and flaky. The broccolini was hard to cut through and the flavor was strongly... natural. The drinks and arepas were the best part of dinner. The arepas were like a saving grace for this date night, they were so delicious. I ordered the Caribe cocktail which was really good ! Reminded me of a pina colada almost. Ambiance was nice but it's pretty dark inside. The hostess sat us but did not pay attention to my question and comment but i chalked it up to her not hearing me as she was having a conversation with a worker about her day. I want to like this place so I'll give it another go but not anytime soon. read more

Food is average, service people were great, we did have the skull dessert the brownie was mid , kind of tart not sweet but the presentation and ice cream was delightful. The best thing about this place is the ambience, decor, etc. Atmosphere is very nice in dining area, rooftop is pretty ghetto, the view is great, but seems they're a pretty young crowd early-mid 20s. Dress code was basically women in bikini tops on the rooftop. Not somewhere to go for romantic date so just stick to downstairs unless you're looking to party with young folks go to rooftop, but if you have a wandering eye stay away from upstairs or the night won't end well fellas. read more

Te Deseo - Rooftop - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Honestly, two stars is being nice. Insanely over priced for BLAND food. I ordered shrimp Diablo and I got about 10 pieces of TINY shrimp that was not seasoned at all. My friend sent back two of her plates because both the brisket and the chicken did not have any seasoning whatsoever. $40 for 10 pieces of bland shrimp and a $30 free to bring my friend a birthday cake... I absolutely do not recommend this place especially because the rooftop bar is nowhere near nice enough for their prices. CHOOSE A DIFFERENT BAR!! read more

The food and drinks were decent but the patio service for a birthday was sooooooo slow on a Saturday. They tried to make it right with a complimentary shot at the end but the meal was 3 hours cause we waited sooooooo long for initial drinks and then entrees. The bartender who waited on us said they were slow when we had a drink at the bar beforehand but it didn't seem like they were staffed to have a large party on the patio at all and they weren't even packed read more

As a professional and business owner I pride myself in ensuring optimum customer service. I was von travel for a conference in early March and went somewhere that offered more than the run of the mill pairings and drinks. The food was okay, but the service upon arrival was far below any standards I would ever tolerate as an owner. I did not get names unfortunately, but would definitely not return. Disappointed I wasted my time here while I was passing through Dallas. read more

Thalia was a true delight from start to finish! She was incredibly attentive; when we noticed our table was unbalanced, she promptly came over to fix it. I allowed her to choose some expertly crafted drinks for us, and I was not disappointed. We began with the ceviche trio, which was delicious and accompanied by popcorn and corn chips. For the main course, we savored the braised short rib and camarones brochettas, both of which were outstanding. Thank you once again, Thalia, for your exceptional hospitality! Overall it's a pretty cool vibes! read more

Went for a work dinner. The decor is amazing. That's where you'll be most impressed. The food is ok. Ceviche was fresh, lightly seasoned--too lightly for my taste. Guacamole also tasted like just avocado. Octo was my favorite dish--perfectly tender, sauce and olives went perfect with it. Short rib was tender, but mole was painted on basically a cube of meat. Not enough sauce!!! Pineapple cake dessert--the cream and pineapple with brûléed sugar was delicious. The cake tasted dry and stale. Service was strange. Waiter announced one of the drinks we had ordered would be unavailable while continuing to walk at full speed across the room. Did not ask if we would like something else or even stop to face us. Similarly half way through taking entree orders he walked away to talk to another staff person and then returned without so much as an apology. I would come again for drinks and snacks, but the service and food does not make for a luxe experience. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. I went to celebrate my 18th birthday party. First of all, our server took 45 minutes to actually take our orders and pay any mind to us. Then, the server (Gabby) offered me a birthday shot (non alcoholic of course) and never mentioned anything about it costing extra. When we got the bill, I was CHARGED 6 dollars for 3 ounces of juice. We also asked if we could split the bill because there was only 8 of us. She said we could not but on the website, it mentions that only parties of 12 cannot split the bill. We were then charged an extra 30% gratuity after tipping, even though they messed up 2 of our orders. One of them was supposed to have been modified for my friend's allergies, which we communicated beforehand and they still messed up which is a safety issue. After this fiasco, she moved us from our table to the bar for a 15 top to come in. While the large party table behind us had been there longer and our table could only fit 11. She sent us to the bar and said we had "special permission to be there". When we go to the bar, we received dirty looks from the bartenders. Some other bartenders come in and tried to id us and we told them we were told to sit here, and insisted we were not ordering anything at alI. More came in and even said out loud "what's up with these young girls at the bar??" This was just rude since we were kicked out of our table and told by our server to sit there . Don't come here if you're expecting something nice for your celebrations. read more

I've been to Te Deseo several times and it does not disappoint. It does get crowded at certain times and especially when there's an event at the AA center. Best bartender is Claudia - excellent service. If you don't want to wait in line, come earlier. There's a reason there's a line. read more

Came for the first time with colleagues for dinner. I'd never been here before but Google searches suggested they could accommodate a vegan. Waiter said they could do tacos, fajitas or enchiladas vegan so I went with the enchiladas & they were really good. Had guac for the appetizer & waiter was good to point out that the chips are made in a shared fryer so I appreciated them knowing to point that out. Service was good - it wasn't very busy on a Wednesday night. Valet is shared with Happiest Hour - it's free with info to Venmo/Zelle/Cashapp a tip. I will say, this restaurant is DARK inside - really weird when you walk in & it's so dark. Your eyes do slightly adjust but it's just dark. I had to get out the flashlight on my phone to look at the menu. Couldn't take pics of my food it was so dark. I'm glad we stayed to go to the rooftop - much brighter up there. I was surprised that it wasn't hot up there. There was a nice breeze and it was really pretty. Had a mango rosemary cocktail that was tasty & my coworker had a pina colada-esque drink that was delicious. Would definitely come here again - I might pack a headlamp though... read more

We decided to go here on the way to an event. I saw that the reviews were good, and the brisket tacos were suggested as a good menu item. When we arrived, the place was super dark, but I loved the cute decor and the unique look. Food was bland and unremarkable. No chips and salsa (which is fine I guess), no Dr Pepper, and the $19 brisket tacos were small with no seasoning. The menu is completely different from what I saw online. The food pictures aren't accurate anymore either. When I went to the restroom, 2 workers were together, smoking a cig and a blunt in the large stall. Lovely. Disappointed and won't be back. read more
