Big Panda Reviews

Good Mexican restaurant
I've come here multiple times over the years. Overall, They have been good experiences. The restaurant is clean and welcoming. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food tastes great. The issue I'm having is there is no more food on happy hour! I was told only drinks were served on happy hour. A lot of my trips coming here have been because of happy hour. I will only come unless it's a special occasion now.

One of the best Mexican restaurants I have ever been to. The food was amazing. We received outstanding service from Brenton. I really like the ambiance of this restaurant. Vibe is elegant and relaxing with sophisticated decor. We ordered the Grande Plate and shared it. I highly recommend this dish- plenty of food for two. At one point , the smoke alarm was triggered by some fajitas. The manager went from table to table apologizing/ explaining. What amazing customer service. The Happy Hour was fabulous. We will definitely be returning

I was prepared to be disappointed since so many MX restaurants, esp. chains, serve such bland food in a bland setting, but I was pleasantly surprised! From the courtyard-like feel of a high ceilinged dining room surrounded with colorful murals, sculptures, and paintings, to the cozy side bar area, I was smitten. The warm tortilla chips with an assortment of sauces allowed us time to explore the extensive menu, but once we saw another table had a tortilla bowl that looked fabulous, we had to get that. Excellent choice too since the beans had flavor that was not like that out of a can, the tomatoes, lettuce, guac, were all fresh and whatever that creamy chile con queso sauce was is an excellent accent, and the choice of beef or chicken filling (we had one of each and both were tasty), and I can't believe I ate the whole fresh and crispy tortilla bowl--usually these can taste old-oily, but obviously this one was perfect. The server was attentive but never intrusive, always there to answer a question or refill the drinks. When I mentioned we were there for my birthday, he brought out a surprise velvety flan. The only sad note was my friend mourned the loss of the fountain they used to have and I agree that would have truly added a refreshing sound and oasis like atmosphere which is much needed in this AZ climate esp. with all the record breaking heat. If it were my business, I'd bring it back in a heartbeat with much fanfare and celebratory publicity so people would be even more encouraged to visit and be refreshed and restored!

Loved this restaurant in Dallas, this location not so much. Chips were good, salsa trio was good. Green Chili Quesadilla was weird, fried tortilla sections with queso on top, they were cold and not good. Bacon Wrapped Shrimp were good but sloppily presented. The main course was a steak Quesadilla that was really weird, cheese on top of soft flour tortilla, steak was mshy.

Veer disappointed.

Had a dish that looked like when topping slides off pizza. The good part is that the food was delicious.

Our server was awesome.

The environment was great.

I will go again.

The atmosphere was really cool. They had beautiful art everywhere which really made it look authentic. We ordered the chicken tacos and it came with beans and rice. It’s a large portion. They also bring you chips and salsa. We also ordered some cocktails which came in a large shaker. I thought that was cool. The food tasted ok and the drinks were ok too.

We always go to Abuelo's for our mother/daughter dates. Have for many years! Definitely love the bacon wrapped stuffed shrimp!
