The only thing that was good was the salsa, floor tortillas even though I asked for corn tortillas. The enchilada was not very good. The rice never had rice like that. Undercooked. I had to trade it for what I thought was veggies four different kinds. Instead I got red and green bell pepper. The place needs up dating. The waitress the tall one I think Susana was not very talkative. She was more concerned with her tip. I got my purse and coat went to the restroom came back out and saw the waitress go straight for the receipt to see what her tip was. I will not be returning! The Manager was nice.

First visit here mid November 2025. Awesome food! Everything was delicious. My husband and I stopped in before boarding my flt to worx to DFW. After asking our waiter a couple of his recommendations he would personally back, I came to the decision of ordering the honey chipotle shrimp taco plate w/ a side of sourcream and guacamole. And I am so glad I did. Hubby had the birria taco plate. Both dishes were so tasty and the portions and quality of the all food ordered and their ingredients were a pleasant surprise as they were fair and not overpriced as most things are now days post covid. Highly recommend stopping by for a tasty Mexican inspired meal. Please enjoy my pictures and videos I captured during my dining experience.

The food was really pretty good. I had forgotten how good. The enchilada special was very good and filling. Chips. Salsa and queso were above the usual tex-mex shops.
Staff were very helpful and friendly. Manager came by at one point .
Booth was a bit tight.

Listen, we haven't eaten at OTB since they closed the one on NW Expressway, so this was a good day. Queso was perfect. Chicken Fajitas were sizzling. It was so great.
