Ztejas used to be my favorite restaurant. Portions have become super small 1/2 of what they used to be. The patio needs help the cushions are torn up not sure why the don't replace them. We had really poor service last night- so disappointed because I chose ZTejas for my birthday dinner. Not sure we will be back again ?

Fabulous patio service during their very busy happy hour. Ordered six or seven things to share and were not disappointed. Chambord Magaritas were outstanding and do refreshing. Do fun looking out on the water, very relaxing setting Can't wait to go back!

We started with the salsa trio which had one hot and one mild red salsa and one mild verde salsa. All the salsas were flavorful and the chips were good, too. The salmon with a tequila pineapple salsa was delicious, as were the sides; matchstick cut zucchini and yellow squash and yummy rice. My husband had the fajitas and thought they were very good. Our service was fantastic! We will definitely go back- maybe to try their brunch with bottomless mimosas and Bloody Mary's.

We came to Z Tejas to enjoy being near the water & were rewarded with a perfect table. However, there was little welcoming of guests at the restaurant. It being a Mexican place, I expected at least an offering of chips & salsa- when I asked, I was told I'd have to order this. We both chose fajitas w/ chicken & again, maybe in an effort to save money, there was no guacamole served with the main course , which in my Mind was an omission of note. So we ordered guacamole & found the sautéed vegetables to be somewhat overcooked & the meat dry. I'm disappointed because this restaurant was my choice since I'd enjoyed good food & a welcoming atmosphere there- but several years ago. Management must have changed.

The bartender was amazing! I had the hard day margarita because it's been a hard day! It did not disappoint. She also reminded me that I never ordered food because I was TIRED! THANKS!
A friend & I met there for a much needed girl's night out. The service, food and ambiance were all outstanding. The server's were all very attentive. We ordered mixed drinks and starters. Everything was delicious. We got an amazing table overlooking the patio, lake and fountain. Very pretty! We'll be back soon.

Disappointing. My wife and I have frequented Z Tejas over the years at several different locations in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Always loved the Diablo Pasta and Southwestern corn bread. However, last night was most likely our last Open Table reservation at Z Tejas. The Diablo Pasta reminded me of the Franco American canned spaghetti I had when I was a kid. The corn bread is about the size of a very small hockey puck. After sitting at our table for 15 minutes, I had to physically get up and chase down a waiter to take our order - not a pleasant experience.

Saturday busy, so expected some delays. Sat for 5mins before server arrived. Kitchen out of water glasses. Problem couldn't be solved and getting the table water was forgotten. Had to re-request when food arrived. Salsa good, chips were broken. No refills offered. Food was subpar. No drink refills / reorders offered. However, dinner ended well with very good desserts.
Great experience overall besides there was no music playing the whole time which we thought was strange. But I love the ambiance and aesthetic of the restaurant and the food was overall good:) Drinks were good. I love the chambord frozen margaritas!

Been there a few times. Food is good. Nice cocktail menu, though the pours and mix vary. Seems to have staff turnover which can cause service variation. Owner or manager seems to be there a lot to pitch in, which is good.
