“El sábado 1 de agosto alrededor de las 7 pm fue la primera vez que los visité. Tengo que ser justa en compartir que me pareció un lugar muy agradable, me sorprendió la velocidad de respuesta en cocina al entregarnos nuestros platillos y su calidad. Consideré una muy buena experiencia hasta ese punto. Víctor , su manager nos visitó en nuestra mesa casi al llegar y se portó muy amable. No soy una persona que consuma alcohol pero en ese momento quise pedir una margarita , al moverla sobre la servilleta húmeda, se atora y cae en la mesa ; un mesero de cabello largo, muy amablemente, se acercó a apoyarnos a limpiar, muy apenados le agradecimos el gesto (por no ser nuestro mesero pero sí por resolver ). A los pocos minutos llega Kate, mesera en turno de la mesa nuestra; me pregunta qué pasó y antes de que yo le compartiera toda apenada ella agrega la frase “o ya andas pe$@$a / drunk??” A lo que mi respuesta fue un super incómodo “jamas”. Entiendo que vivimos en una época en donde, para muchos , hasta risa hubiera salido de un comentario como el de ella; pero para mí fue una falta total de respeto. No encontré a Víctor al final y ya compartí mi experiencia también en su website oficial porque considero que la retroalimentación es vital para quienes somos prestadores de servicio en cualquier ámbito. Son una restaurante con un alta potencial; mi única sugerencia es que cuiden esa línea tan delgada de ser amigable a pasar a ser irrespetuoso con tu cliente. Gracias . Carolina López.“

“stopped in for lunch after arriving in town. Delinah was exceptional. She had a smile and attention to detail for menu items was pleasurable. It is nice to see someone excited to be working and enjoy the surroundings.“

“Ok. So we went to Red Lobster to try their new seafood boil bag. We've been loyal Mr Crabbys seafood boil bag customers for 5 years. Finding really great seafood outside of NH is hard. So hard..... Until now. The RL boil bag is far superior. Here's why: 1. The seasoning is just right. Choice of garlic & butter or Cajun. Got the Cajun- because that's the only seasoning in a proper boil bag that's acceptable. 1a. The seasoning is far better as it's not drowning in oil- causing constant crab splatters. 1b. The seasoning does not overpower the taste of the seafood like Mr Crabbys does. You can actually taste the lobster- shrimp and crab. 2. The bag comes with 6 more shrimp (12 total) than Mr Crabbys 6. The lobster tail is split fully in half rather than just slashed down the top spine- making it difficult at Mr Crabbys to pull the meat out in one swipe. (That's what she said) 3. The bag does NOT come with sausage if you order the Mariners Bag. However it can be added. Here's the closer- it's REAL Andouille sausage- not kielbasa. Me Crabbys has been using kielbasa the last few times we went. If you know the difference in flavor- you'll understand why this matters. 4. I wore my bib cuz I'm accustomed to having the food drip all over me as I crack and work for my reward. It was not needed. Even with dumping the bag into the tray- it was not over saturated in oil- but rather delicately seasoned with butter. Over all- we have a new Sunday Boil Bag date location. I never thought I'd stray from Mr Crabbys- but shockingly- Red Lobster has become the affair worth having. They did good with hiring this new CEO who brought this brain child to my beloved Maine lobster Locale here in the Deep South. If yall see this- please- from this coastal New England girl trying to get a nut in the RGV.....don't ever drop this from the menu. Sincerely Your newest fan.“

“Food was good :) definitely a wide variety. Great service as well, thank you JJ! ♡ As a person who's scared to speak, JJ was inviting and helpful handling those questions.“

“Came to celebrate my birthday 🎂 and sat at the bar. Julio took great care of us and offered great recommendations. The cherry on top was the manager Julia Fox brought me a lovely gift of cookies to go and a coupon for next time I visit. They made me feel so special and appreciated. Amazing service, food and value. I love me some Cheddar's!“

“I had a good experience at Denny’s restaurant on University Drive In Edinburg this morning. Samantha, our server, constantly checked on us. She always made sure to be cheerful and attentive. Cassie, a server not assigned to us, had an ever-present smile. Her smile radiated so brightly that it lit up the mood of my friend and me. These two young ladies made our visit to this place extremely pleasant. I recommend sitting at the bar. The bar is where the staff assembles to retrieve their orders. It is where you will always see smiling faces. Here is where they have more of an opportunity to face you and gift you with a kind comment or beam another bright smile in your direction.“

“The food is great and the personnel is very friendly and helpful. This is one of my favorite restaurants.“

“My wife and I had a wonderful experience at Santa Fe. The food was perfect and the service was excellent! Carlos, our server, was polite, friendly, and well informed about the menu items. The lobster bisque could not have been any better. This is an upper-class restaurant, but you get what you pay for.“

“Está muy bien, lo único que piden mejorará es el personal está del caos no todos pero si varios y también que tengan doctor peper“

“Staff is always friendly and attentive.. prices are great along with the food. Great environment and music especially when live bands are here. Not to mention clean restrooms which is rare in the bar scene. Love the improvements they have made as well. Highly recommend this bar. Has a great atmosphere. Isaac the manager was even nice enough to introduce himself and ask about our experience.“

“I will definitely visit again. The service, food and cocktails were all outstanding.“

“great selection of food. great and friendly service good price“

“I recommend La Eloteca when you’re craving that “elote en vaso” fix. I like that you have several topping options to enjoy that treat. However, folks.. Please have your food prep staff/workers change gloves after handling money or touching the checkout screen. The same checkout screen your customers touch. I was so turned off that I had to remind the female worker to change her gloves after she handled cash, the screen, then touched the opening of the bottle where the crema and mayo come out of. That’s cross contamination. She needs to retake that food handlers course again.“

“Had a good time. Our server was great“

“First timers! And we don’t regret coming here! Super great service and great food!! Will come back again for sure🙏“

“But not the drive-thru... it's always been a good restaurant, but the morning drive-thru is disappointing. It took 32 minutes for a sandwich, I had to move to the parking lot and go in and get it. (The sandwich and coffee were good, but cost $13.10.)“

“Josue was a great waiter! Came for dinner with friends & had a great time! Great food & great service“

“Okay first bar uptown completely impressed by the staff are very polite , tables are clean , restrooms clean and music was great! Although I would have loved to make content in this club and not have the waiters yelling in the middle of songs . Maybe find a different method then the microphone like a ticket service. Over all 10/10 will be coming back .Great night !“

“My family and I went to Siempre Natural on Jackson. It was our first time going. The restaurant was very clean and the table was clean. The cashier was was very nice and helpful great customer service. Mickaela was nice and sweet lady. I would love to go back to that Siempre Natural on Jackson. 👍😁“

“The service was excellent, Tony was great. The atmosphere was top notch. The food was outstanding. It was our anniversary and they treated us with a card, sprinkled hearts on the table and a complimentary piece of red velvet cheesecake. We will be returning.“

“good tasting food. excellent service. Abel was great. thanks 😊“

“We were in the area wanting some local food and found it. (Little bit hidden, well for those unfamiliar with the city.) It was good, ordered the special and we finished everything. We went when it was calm and quiet which we didn't mind for the long day we had. Anyways if I'm ever in the area again we will definitely go once more.“

“Our first visit to this unique speak-easy restaurant. It was 5pm on a Tues, so it was not busy and very quiet. Server was friendly and attentive. My husband loved the ribs and would order them again. I had the chicken with kimchi rice and I wouldn't order it again. I was warned it was spicy and I told the server I will be fine as long as my water glass is always full. My water glass was empty twice and only refilled once. The Brussel sprouts were perfection; spicy, yet sweet, and nicely crunchy.“

“We cannot recommend enough! Chantelle & Ethan at the bar were so welcoming and made the absolute best recommendations for both food & drinks. The homemade pasta is something you dream of.“

“First time here with my coworkers & we had a great time. Service was amazing, our server, John kept making sure we were good with drinks etc. Food was great, we had the classic sliders appetizer with fries, the four cheese Spinach dip with chips and the carne asada taco combo... 10/10 recommend ♡ definitely coming back!“

“Amazing! The breakfast tacos are amazing! I’ve been coming for my Friday morning pre work fix for a few weeks and it is consistently delicious!!! The atmosphere and customer service is the best I’ve seen in a long time at any business.“

“Best Reuben I’ve ever had!!“

“But not the drive-thru... it's always been a good restaurant, but the morning drive-thru is disappointing. It took 32 minutes for a sandwich, I had to move to the parking lot and go in and get it. (The sandwich and coffee were good, but cost $13.10.)“

“I've never met them, but through some business dealings I learned that the owner of this place is, I think, a 2nd generation restaurant owner and from everything I've seen and heard, they are really good people. The food is great quality and the prices are totally decent. This place is definitely worth a try.“

“Amazing food and service!!!“

“My women's group ate at Paula's Tea House & Deli. The food was excellent, beautiful presentation, and wonderful decor. Everyone loved it! A great place to eat.“
