    The atmosphere is fantastic, and the service is wonderful! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. However, there was a little hiccup with the food. Maybe it was just a busy Sunday for Mother's Day. To start, the fries seemed a bit old and cold, and they were quite soggy. The steak, unfortunately, was tough and chewy, making it difficult to enjoy. On a positive note, the chips and mini hotdog from the kids' menu were delicious!

    We keep coming back to see if it gets better, but Casa Gabriela is so hit or miss. Mostly all misses. This is a great location and the restaurant ambiance is lovely, but it stops there. Best thing you can order is a .394. If the service is good (and it has been great), then the food is BLAND and very disappointing considering the price point for Mexican, in a city where there is plenty of better and cheaper options. If the service is bad, then the food or drinks do not make up for the lack of service. Casa G, I have to know! Are you poaching your chicken unseasoned and using it for multiple dishes. Yikes, asking on behalf of those Fajitas?

    We went during the Farmers market so it was a bit busy took about 40 mins to get a table. We were greeted immediately upon sitting and got chips, salsa, and water. The waiting staff consistently refilled our waters and drinks and made sure our food was good. We ordered the La Jefa Asado for 2 it was so delicious, I do wish it had more like 1-2 more pieces of the meats and shrimp. The flavor is amazing and spicy. We also ordered a kids menu bacon wrapped hotdogs which came with fries, which was definitely well liked. When packing left overs we got fresh salsa and chips to go, and plenty of containers. Absolutely pay them a visit as you will not be disappointed with the atmosphere, food, or service.

    We stopped in here as a quick choice and was beyond pleased. Atmosphere was amazing on the patio. The food was better than ive ever had at a mexican restaurant, service was great for how busy they were. Definitely would return if im in the area. I may come back to the area for it. I try the Flan at ever new mexican restaurant I visit and this was hands down the best id ever had!

    Overall the restaurant is just mediocre. The menu didn't have much for a Mexican restaurant. I had the camaron quesadilla Diablo and it was not very flavorful, the beans and rice felt generic. I feel like the food at taco shops out in town are cheaper and have better sauces. Also tried the jalapeño cilantro cauliflower which was pretty good as well as the chili rellano was also good
