Everything was great. Food and drink prices are a little on the high side for Moody Street.

It is hard to go wrong regardless of what you pick as everything has ranged from good to exceptional. At the top of the exceptional end is the tamale appetizer. Not to be missed

My favorite dine-in Mexican restaurant in the area! Staff is great. Food and drinks are delicious. Outside seating is great in the warmer months.

The vegan vegan guacamole, plantains and vegetable enchiladas were excellent. It is very easy to eat vegan here. The waitstaff was great. I recommend outdoor seating.

We have had this waiter before and he is on the grumpy side. I asked for a margarita with no salt and it came with salt but to be honest, I just didn’t want to get into it with him.

This is a great spot for outdoor dining. The food is really good, as are the drinks. I recommend shrimp a La Diablo, which I’ve had 3-4 times there, always delish. Shrimp with tomatillo sauce was also excellent. My only complaint: slow service, an especially long wait to take our food order. I had to go to the hostess to ask for service.
