Extremely addicted to the sopa de mariscos here! Staff is always friendly and attentive.

This is my third visit here. I always get the same dish, spinach and mushroom enchiladas, which are a vegan option. This may be the only vegan option they have on the menu, but it doesn't matter because it is so amazing! It taste like a Mexican dish, is spicy, and is very flavorful. My only gripe, and the reason why I am giving it four stars today, is because we came in on Friday evening, which was completely packed and the spinach wasn't as fresh as it usually is. What I love about the location is that it is in Bishop arts District. I like that it is in a house so it gives you a homey feeling and it feels like I am around family. very comforting! There aren't many locations or restaurants that have vegan Mexican dishes, and I like this one so much, that I will continue to come here for years to come.

Holy moly they do seafood perfectly! Large dining room spaces, sophisticated casual, friendly and gracious staff. We had a party of four and got to order 4 different entrees, appetizers, and desserts. Servings are large, hot, and scrumptious. Seafood lovers this is top-notch and you won't be disappointed! Homemade tortillas made on-site! The fish soup is delicious! Plenty of parking.

Holy moly. I'm not Mexican but I'm gonna say this is the best Mexican I've had. Super fresh. Can't lose with any item on the menu. So far, I've loved seafood tacos, all the soups, taco salad, seafood appetizer dip... Plan to try lots more. Love the enclosed patio. Ask for Kiko!!!

Visiting Dallas area for a weekend, was told I should check out this place for their fish soup and relleno. Both were fantastic. The shrimp relleno is not your typical stuffed green bell pepper, but giant prawns served with rice, baked potato, and a small piece of chili pepper almost as an whimsical afterthought. In any case, this is a delightful dish I highly recommend it. Also, Yelp check-in gives you a free half nacho (I couldn't believe the 'half' size, I guess it's Texas everything is bigger.) The freshly made chips and salsa (green and red) were also excellent! The restaurant is basically a converted cozy country cottage, so it could feel cramped inside for some people. The upside is you feel like dining in the charming home of a gourmet host with Southern hospitality. I loved it.

Food was great, the ambiance is a home like feel. And the service was good. The women's restroom is a little tight to get in and out of. In my opinion not really great for mobility impaired.i had the a shrimp style cocktail and i added tapatío because i like a little spice. I had the happy hour margaritas on the rocks and finally the flan.

This restaurant is beautiful! It's a house that has been converted into a multi room restaurant. They serve mainly Mexican seafood, but they do have non-seafood options as well. The chicken chile relleno, rice, beans, and nachos were all very good. We received excellent service. This restaurant will go on our favorites list. Cons: Don't drive a low car into the parking lot from the main road. Your car will bottom out. Even our small SUV hit the ground. Having everyone enter & exit through the same typical house sized door and hallway is a mess. People block the walkway and almost run into each other.

Location Southwest Dallas-Oak Cliff area Parking Off street lot Atmosphere It's like a home with rooms decorated beautifully, bar area, outside garden like area Small room has woman making tortillas-nice! Live music-very nice. Tv's in bar have spanish only channels. Seating Bar, outdoor seating, indoor-tables, booth Service Friendly and super fast. Menu Happy hour menu limited-house margarita not wine. Complimentary chips and salsa-red tasted canned, green was good but very spicy. Chips were light and tasty. Guacamole was generous and fresh. Really good. We had the trio of fish tacos-served with rice, sauce, corn tortillas, and side salad. The shrimp Had the most serving. The salmon and mahi were good but shrimp was best. The margarita was delish and generous. Summary Very popular local restaurant, fresh food, terrific service, limited happy hour menu. They are known for the catfish. Glad we tried it!
