  Had dinner at Iron Cactus on the Riverwalk. Probably one of the best drinks I've ever had was the Mezcal Royale. Really good smokey spicy flavor. Tableside was had great flavor. Fish tacos were good. Not a fan of their salsa. To me salsa shouldn't be served warm. Might as well just be marinera. The service wasn't great. Took about 15 mins to be acknowledged. Getting our drinks took about 20 minutes to get. We ordered our drinks first and finished our appetizer before the drinks arrived at the table. We probably would have ordered more drinks but didn't want to wait. Nice location and great outdoor seating along the Riverwalk.

  Our server was amazing. Thank you Nick for the amazing job you did. Our food was delicious but our clam chowder was simply superb. I can describe how good it was. I never had a clam chowder even come close to this. We also had the smash burger with lobster. The burger was seasoned to perfection and tasted amazing. We had the clams and pasta also. Also amazing. Sorry I didn't take mow pics

  What food I did get was fantastic. I am not sure if we’re suppose to get chips and salsa but they never showed up. The table side guac was okay. We ordered drinks and we waited, waited and waited. Our food showed up and our drinks finally showed up after we finished eating. My southwest paella was fire. But no drinks for an hour and no salsa in inexcusable. Honestly there is no way I’m going back.

  I found paper in my burger (the cheese divider), which is honestly ridiculous. I only came here because of the location, and I definitely won’t be coming back. What made it worse was how it was handled. The shift manager didn’t apologize or offer to take the sandwich off the bill. Instead, he just offered to remake it. The food also took about 25 minutes to come out. I ordered the Cabo chicken sandwich. The bartender was nice, but the manager clearly didn’t care. Overall, one of the worst experiences I’ve had..

  Forgotten for 20mins after being sat down. In a far corner. Two other parties had appetizers and drinks not even 5 mins after they had walked in. I'm currently sitting here, 50 mins in with no chips and salsa that I ordered 20 mins ago. Had brought my mom and kids thinking I'd have a good experience like when I had came on my own, two previous times. Definitely not coming back.
