We had the best service and the margaritas were awesome! The lone star ribs were cooked to perfection and very tender; full of flavor. Got the guacamole because the salsa wasn't too hot and was hoping for some spicy goodness. We also ordered the carne asada burrito but it had more beans than carne. But overall still absolutely one of our favorite places.

This is not our first visit to Gabriel's but probably the best. We decided to go New Mexican for Thanksgiving this year. Gabriel's did not disappoint. The patio was decorated beautifully for the winter holidays. We arrived a little early and were seated immediately. Our orders arrived reasonably fast, as we sipped on our excellent house margaritas. The wait staff demonstrated professionalism with a friendly, warm touch. I would recommend Gabriel's to locals and visitors alike. You will have a lovely experience.

Food was very good, but the service was a little slow but friendly. I thought the lights were up too bright for dinner time. But we definitely enjoyed our dinner.

Table-side guacamole is definitely worth getting, always a favorite local place

Usually order the veggie fajitas which are killer feeds 2 and under $20. Went today early at opening time however this time the fajitas along with the tofu added were in my opinion yesterday’s leftovers did not even get close to what we were used to. I will try it one more time but at a later time of day to prove my point. I am disappointed and did not expect this from such a renowned eatery.

We have frequented and enjoyed Gabriel's for many years. The southwest ambiance of the facility is very nice and we enjoy the pet friendly outside patio when the weather is good. The table-side guacamole is always a treat. We often get the fish tacos for a healthy meal that leaves us not overstuffed so we have room for our favorite desert, the Banana Vallarta. Unfortunately at our most recent visit, the fish tacos were terrible (a chunk of charred fish with not much of anything else in the tortia). They were so bad that we stopped eating after a couple of bites. The waiter was apologetic and we did not get charged for the dinners, but it was a great disappointment. The restaurant is under new ownership (2024), so we are not sure if they decided to change the recipe or if the chef just had a bad night. The waiter shared our concerns with the manager, so hopefully they will address the issue in the future. We plan on giving Gabriel's another chance.

We have been going to Gabriel’s for 30+ years and I’ve never been more disappointed than I was this evening. Our service was awful. We ordered Silver Coin margaritas but were served House margaritas that was clearly made with a mix. The waitress never came to check on us and we finally just stood up and asked someone else for our bill so we could pay. The bathrooms were nasty. There was a ton of food on the ground under our table and I had to wipe the crumbs off my seat before sitting down.
I wish I could say that the food was still great, but the Plato de Carnitas wasn’t nice and crispy like it usually is done.
We won’t be going back…sorry Gabriels…you lost a (former) local fan.

We stopped going for awhile, because the all male wait staff were rude and dismissive. We returned recently and found that female wait staff make Gabriel's a more inviting and friendlier place. The wait between courses was lengthy but the food and ambience was enjoyable.
Tasty and delicious describes this place to a tee! Everyone in our party of five loved the food. I definitely recommend the fresh guacamole. They make it right in front of you. The steak fajitas were fantastic as well! And don’t forget the sopaipillas! They are the fluffiest I have ever had!

Gabriel’s, I love you, but we need to talk.
The food is delicious. The atmosphere and patio are great. The drinks are tasty.
The service is TERRIBLE.
It’s to the point where I don’t want to order the guacamole or queso anymore, because I know it’s going to take 30 minutes to get a refill on the chips. The drinks stay empty for 90% of the meal until the check is dropped off. Don’t get me wrong, the staff are friendly and polite, but I need to interact with them more than three times a visit.
I wish this were an isolated occurrence, but it’s been this way for a year or so now. You’re driving me away, and I once called you my favorite restaurant in the area.

The food was delicious, the place was nice. They have areqs for big groups also. Margaritas top notch 😋
