Escalante's - Houston

The food was great and a fun ambience. Alexander gave my family the most welcoming service I had in years!

Excellent food, great service, and even though the restaurant was full of diners, it wasn't loud where we were sitting.

I had the Escalante Especial, which was good. The Charro beans were just ok. The three shrimp were not only very large but great tasting.

The restaurant has the old world rustic hacienda atmosphere that they find in mexiko, very spacious and great. the chips and salsa were served cold, not fresh in oil and warm salsa fried. However, the tableside guacamole appetizer was made fresh and it was the only thing that was excellent. the deer, carne asada did not taste properly, and the Zilantro calculus was in order, the carbon beans were undercooked! I liked the homemade flour tortillas, they were thick. Overall, this is a very nice restaurant, but can not say the same for eating, it was best in taste and quality.

For starter?s my server was incredible! My margarita was smooth and so good with the strawberry fruit added. My shrimp enchiladas were delicious as well. I?m not a queso person, but their?s was good. I sat outside near the front and there was a problem with those ugly black birds. They were so bold, that they were trying to come on my table to steal nachos. I would recommend them putting up a screen to prevent this.
