Last minute choice and so glad we got in on a Friday night bc it got busy. They food is outstanding and the patio is, I think the best spot in the house. Our waiter Eddy was super kind and took great care of us. I highly recommend coming here. The drinks....funny enough most of it is spicy but deliciously made.

A beautiful day for eating outside. We tried lunch at Miriam's and everything was great. It's a nice place next to the park and museum.

I started with a frozen strawberry margarita that was so strong it warmed my cold, little heart. For the main course, I had the green chicken enchiladas with Mexican rice and beans. The enchiladas were packed with flavor, and I especially appreciated the chicken being all white meat. The rice was perfectly fluffy, and the beans came with fresh cotija cheese on top. Overall, great food, a drink that hits harder than my caffeine habit, and a relaxed vibe. I'll definitely be back--next time, I'll try not to fill up on margaritas before dessert!

The only reason I'm taking away a star is because the service started off pretty slow. It took a while to get acknowledged by a waiter and the drinks and apps took a while to come. BUT when we got it everything tasted great! Loved the ceviche. The empanadas were really good especially the chicken. Didn't get to finish all 4 of the amigos tacos but it was really good as well. Restaurant was cutely decorated for Valentine's Day.

My children and husband love this place mainly due to the location and the fresh fruit Fresca they whip up. I personally am not a fan as I can't find anything on the menu that WOW me especially considering I prefer non-meat and animal free dishes. It's very rare (Maybe 10 times a year ) that I'll dine Pesc-related. I can attest that the fresh chips and the variety of salsa that accompany are yummy. Our children always get the taco de pollo from the Ninos menu. My husband enjoy the shrimp taco with rice and beans. The service has always been welcoming, friendly and attentive. The restaurant ambiance is good in the eyes and the open kitchen concept is very appreciated as you can see food as it is provided from the kitchen staff. I appreciate how they decorate for the occasions as I've dined near Christmas and Valentine Day and the decor is very welcoming. I say this place has a great atmosphere and food for those who eat meat, I won't take away from them due to me not eating meat.

Went here for a work dinner and was pleasantly surprised! The queso verde was the best and I didn't get a photo of it. Queso with poblanos and spinach = pure yum!!! Nice area near Klyde Warren Park and good parking in their garage that was validated. I'd definitely recommend this place and will visit again.

I came here on New Year's Eve and the place was so beautiful. The decorations were gorgeous and the staff was warm and welcoming. I could really tell they enjoyed working. We enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa. I had a rib eye steak which was delicious. I loved the potatoes that came with it as well. The espresso martini was amazing - one of the best! Everyone in the party enjoyed their food. The bread pudding was delicious too. I can't wait to come back here again. 10 out of 10!

My boyfriend brought us here for our anniversary dinner on a Tuesday night. The restaurant was fairly quiet I'm assuming since it was a weekday. I really appreciated the free valet parking since it's located right by the very busy Klyde Warren Park. Our server was kind and the food all came out very quickly. I always give bonus points to restaurants who start with free chips and salsa, and the three choices of salsa were a great addition. My favorites were the green and orange. To start we ordered the empanadas which were probably the best thing we ordered all night. They were fried perfectly and super flavorful with the best sauce to dip them in. My passion fruit marg was strong and delicious! My combination entree was good but nothing super impressive. I didn't love the carrots and corn in the rice and the enchilada meat sauce barely had any ground beef so it was not the most filling. The pork belly taco was flavorful but a light tough to bite through as a taco. The tres leches was surprisingly much more moist than I was expecting and it was a huge slice. I was not a fan of the raspberry filling though and chose to eat around it. The restaurant itself is gorgeous and in a super cool part of town. I would recommend for a one time date night!

I've driven past this place so many times and never thought to eat here because of course parking is insane. However, they do have valet across the street if you're willing to pay. Now that that's out of the way, this was the best food I've had in Dallas in a very long time! As busy as it was, our server did her best to be attentive and made recommendations. My friend and I both got the French toast which was perfectly sweet, not too much! And the short rib empanadas are to DIE FOR! They come with a lime crema on the side and all I can say is 10/10! The flight was just above average I wouldn't get it again but the martini was everything I could've hoped for! It's such a cute place! The environment is perfect for brunch! Yes I will be coming back :)
