El Chile Cafe y Cantina

We were a party of 10 including two small children. Our server was very attentive, great service and he kept it all straight. And the food was very good as were the adult beverages. We'll be back.

Safe to say the best local food I've had anywhere, not just in Texas. Highly recommended, this place needs to be way more crowded for how delicious everything was.

I love this place. I've had good times there. They have a very decent happy hour with food/drinks. Nice patio. They've been around a LONG time, (2003, maybe?) which is a really good run for a restaurant and there's a reason why. Good, consistent food. A few notches above basic, not terribly expensive, fairly priced. Good drinks, too.

Casual Mexican restaurant. The food is good but doesn't come very fast, so plan your visit or have a nice chat during waiting. The staff are OK. The patio looks nice.

I love this place. It's cute and cozy, has a great patio (heated in the winter) and ultra nice servers. I felt like I was walking into a family affair - everyone, waitstaff and patrons included, were happy and upbeat.

My wife and I ordered the mole enchiladas - WOW. Mole is tough - varies a lot from place to place. El Chile's is like the best I've had in Mexico City. The table next to me had an awesome, fresh fish ceviche. I was surrounded by delicious food.
