Acenar is always our choice of restaurants before going to a concert or show at the Majestic Theater. Great food and margaritas, and super service.

Had an amazing girls’ night at Los Amores de Julia! The food was delicious, the cocktails were fantastic, and the atmosphere was wonderful. A special shout-out to our bartender, Crystal, who was absolutely amazing! She made us feel so welcome, and we enjoyed every minute of our experience. Great food, great drinks, and exceptional service! We will definitely be back! ❤️

We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, the moles were yummy. The service was 10 out of 10. We couldn't have asked for better service. The staff was very attentive. The ambiance of the restaurant was eclectic and at the same time comfortable.

This place was crazy fun. It was a normal restaurant until about 9:30, then it transformed into a night club. It was like being at a Mexican wedding. Everyone wore house-provided cowboy hats and belted out popular hispanic songs to a live DJ pushing songs to tons of screens. The added bonus was how great and authentic the Mexican food was. None of that Tex-Mex stuff. It was pure Mexican food straight from south of the border. We ordered the cochinita pubil and quesabirria tacos. Fire. Then we tried their aguachile with watermelon. Wow. Will definitely go back with more friends.

The atmosphere was nice. It was not crowded during our visit, and our server was attentive. We ordered the Pitmaster Queso with brisket and the Social Burger -- both were great. We would definitely return here on a future visit.

Such a great dining experience! The atmosphere was amazing, with live music that made the evening even more enjoyable. The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our visit. But the real standout for me was the virgin margarita—hands down the best I’ve ever had! Everything from the food to the service was top-notch. Definitely a place I’d recommend and look forward to visiting again!

Great place to have a special dinner or a group of friends. The food is fantastic, you get a lot of food in every order is seems. I have had everything from their Ribs which are always so good, Shrimp Brochette, Fajita's, Taco Al Carbon to name a few and they all have been fantastic. I made reservations for the patio and it was so nice. I highly recommend Dos Rio's!
