We had a lovely meal of Tex Mex staples and stiff margaritas. The resort was a pretty back drop to celebrate a retirement. We could hear each other easily and converse. Our server and trainee were excellent which always makes for a great time dining out.

Booked a reservation because it was Thanksgiving evening but the crowd was lite and we walked right in. Food was good a price was not outrageous. And attire was casual. I would go here again

Food was okay, but overpriced. Atmosphere was very pleasant, staff was nice.

The bar is raised pretty high to be a restaurant located within the precious walls of La Cantera. As a stand-alone cantina, Primero would be popular; but within this high-end resort, the challenge to deliver superior food, service, and ambience is quite a bit higher than the norm. So what are visitors led to expect? BETTER food. BETTER service. And BETTER ambiance! Granted, Mexican dishes are pretty predictable. That is where the challenge begins: creative beverage options, uniquely presented and prepared dishes, and comfortable surroundings. Our server, Andrea, was attentive until the end of the meal when we waited too long for the ticket. It was more than adequate , but nothing really special.

Food was less than desirable. Beef fajitas and the fish ceviche are a big NO. It would probably be best to stick to a burger or chicken strips. Our waitress was possibly having a bad day. She never smiled and looked ticked. The place was relatively empty but it took 25 minutes once seated to be greeted by our server. That only happened because I went to the host and asked her if we had a server. Love the resort but their food needs some work.

I just want anyone traveling in out of the State of TX to understand that this is not traditional TexMex. Will it be tolerable? Yes, but I urge you to go try one of the many wonderful TexMex places in the area. Tortillas are the thin store bought ones, not fluffy homemade like most places here. They charge $7 for chips/salsa which is blasphemy in TX, then they took 10 min to get chips to our table (5 min before our food). Food was overall bland like you’d get anywhere north of Texas. It’s fine, but please don’t think it’s real Tex/Mex.

Nice restaurant, not busy at all, we made a reservation but didn't need it. They let us pick our seat. Food was pretty good

We had to leave our table because no one ever came to serve us. Don't waste your time here.

We came to celebrate Mother's Day for breakfast and we got the lunch menu, I requested one order of hot cakes for my kids and the front lady told me NO as answer and then she said that the breakfast restaurant was upstairs and it cost 70 dollars per person and I requested to try to order one small order of hotcakes and she said they are fully booked. I asked our waiter and she say YES I can do that. She was great we leave her a very good tip and she manage the way around and figure something for us.

The quality of this restaurant has gone downhill significantly since the last time we were here in 2018. The queso dip appeared to be the kind that you buy in bulk, was lukewarm when it got to the table and became gelatinous very quickly. The guacamole was not homemade, and it was like the packs you get at the grocery store. The nachos were average, and the brisket tacos were greasy. The server was very friendly. I would not recommend this restaurant.
