" Escalante's Fine Tex-Mex is another level. The flavors remind me of dishes I've enjoyed while visiting Mexico. The tamales were outstanding and the service was quick and friendly. The restaurant has a fun atmosphere, making it great for family gatherings or a casual date night. I do think the prices could be a tad higher considering the authenticity and quality they offer, but overall it's a fantastic experience. I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful evening at Escalante's! From the moment we stepped in, we felt welcomed by the warm atmosphere and friendly staff. Our server, Melissa, was exceptional and offered great recommendations. I had the botana mix as an appetizer, and it was incredibly fresh and flavorful. For the main course, I opted for the shrimp tacos. They were packed with flavor and beautifully presented. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Escalante's with high expectations and wasn't let down! The food was delicious, particularly the roasted corn poblano bisque—it was a creamy delight. The lively atmosphere was perfect for a night out, and the service was attentive but not intrusive, which I appreciate. My only issue was that the serving size of the entrees could be slightly bigger, but all in all, a great dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Escalante's based on the reviews and I was not disappointed! The food was fantastic, particularly the corn bisque, which was creamy and flavorful. However, the service was a bit slow during peak hours, but they were clearly overwhelmed. Our server, Anna, did her best and was very friendly. While I enjoyed my meal, I did feel that the portions could have been slightly larger based on the price point. Still, it’s a lovely place to dine with family. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing about Escalante's from friends, I was excited to give it a try—and it did not disappoint! The vibrant atmosphere set the stage for a wonderful meal. I got the street tacos, which were incredibly flavorful, and the house-made salsa was a perfect complement. The only downside was our server seemed a bit distracted at times, which led to slight delays in our service. Nevertheless, I would definitely revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I would like to express my love for Escalante's! From the moment you arrive, the staff welcomes you with a smile. The atmosphere feels festive, and the food is impeccable. I had the queso with chorizo as an appetizer, and it was rich and creamy. For my main dish, I chose tacos al pastor, which were bursting with flavor. The service was efficient and friendly throughout the meal, making it a delightful dining experience. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Escalante's is a must-try! The food was excellent, but the service truly set it apart. Our server, Bianca, was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and offered great suggestions. I tried the fajitas, which were generously portioned and beautifully cooked. The atmosphere was vibrant and festive—a perfect setting for a night out with friends. My only request would be for slightly more variety in the dessert menu! " (*Curated Review*)
