Service was very slow despite the restaurant not being busy and the server seemed irritated by our presence. I got the surf and turf and struggle to believe that grisly slab of beef was actually filet mignon. The lobster was overcooked. But the sauce was amazing!

Went for Valentine's Day and they changed the price of their special and would not honor the price they were advertising. Food was very salty but our waitress was amazing. Solid 2.5-3/5 stars
Menu: I've never had a bad dish at Hidalgo's. The fixed menu (Valentine's day) had a good selection. I was a little disappointed when we were told that our normal cocktail choices were not available and we had to select what was listed on the fixed cocktail menu. I could tell our server was new. Though I appreciate good service, our table was visited so often that it became kind of annoying. Hidalgo's has become our Valentine's Day tradition (5 years) and we like it.

Both food and overall service was very good, a bit disorganized to start but they got it together. We visited for NYE and the menu was very limited. They did go out of their way to accommodate a Vegan member of our party, letting him order off of the Late Menu. The restaurant could use a furniture update, but I am guessing like other restraunts they are still in financial recovery mode. That said, we were happy enough with our visit, that we will return.

I was very disappointed with the quality of the food. I remembered having good meals here before, but tonight my meal was mediocre at best. I ordered the marinated flank steak, and I know that is not the best cut of meat. However, probably prepared it can be delicious. It needed to be thinly sliced and have more chimichurri sauce. My plate was a mess. There were black beans covered with tomatoes and nopales surrounding the steak which was topped with lots of garnish and overall, it just looked like too much of a mess. Considering that I paid $35 for my meal, value was not good. My husband had short rib enchiladas, and they were rather tasteless. He thought the best tasting part of his meal was the black beans.

Awesome food and great service. This place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend it.
They changed owners a couple of years ago and food is definitely not as good. Limited selection too.

We ordered surf & turf for two &70. They brought one stone bowl with a few shrimp, 1 piece of lobster , 1 sausage & I piece of steak. Then we got 1 small plate of rice to share. For the price I guess I expected a little more food. At least our own plates. Portions — much left to be desired. Service was good and salsa was

Had the Hildago Benedict and Short Rib Enchiladas. The Benedict had perfectly poached eggs, crispy ham, and a nice heat to the hollandaise with a refreshing avocado and microgreen garnish. My wife had the short rib enchilada which the red sauce was extremely salty, she could not finish it. The flavors of the enchilada were just ok, not very memorable. Cocktails are very reasonably priced and tasted great.

The food was good but I would have liked it to be spicier. I felt it was a bit bland. When we go back, I will request it to be spicier. I also feel the prices are a bit high. The service was great!
