It's not a chain!
This is a unique restaurant, almost. It’s the little brother of the original in ‘downtown’ Dallas. I’m pretty sure I went to that on my first trip to Dallas in 1983. I was more impressed then.
The restaurant is in a strip-mall, but once inside it’s easy to forget that. The bar is 1/4 level up from the main floor of the resaurant, and the windows down from there give a feeling of eating on a plaza. The service was broadly friendly (and loudly Texan). For these reasons, I feel a strong positive rating is warranted.
The food was fine, as was the La Margarita, but even in Seattle I can get Mexican that’s just about as good.

Crabmeat Enchilada
A good value. The stuffing is flavorful and not too rich. The avocado sauce is a nice touch. Unfortunately, it’s a bit bland and they don’t offer any hot picante.
-
Guacamole
A decent portion for one person, but slightly stingy. The texture was just right, but there wasn’t any zing to the flavor.
-
La Margarita
The house specialty margarita is for people who don’t like tequila. It had a fair amount of flavor, but seemed more like a soft drink than a cocktail.
