Z'Tejas
Locations finder
Mexican cuisine is not my favorite, but Z Tejas is not your typical American version of Mexican food. My daughter and I chose the trio dips with chips appetizer--salsa, guacamole, and queso--all delicious. My lump crab cake salad was a wonderful surprise--more crab than breading. The cabbage adds that extra crunch to this unique salad. My daughter had the appetizer size Street Tacos and said they were the best she had ever tasted. She's in Tempe for a long term project with Arizona State and said she would return. I,too, pla... read more
appetizers are plenty big to share and you can get 3 for the price of an entree. We left spending right at $50 for four. Patio was great!
Not what I expected – Took some friends out, the food was mediocre and you can get better for you money elsewhere. On the plus side the staff were friendly and fast.
Z Tejas Grill - great family atmosphere – Had a wonderful visit with my family from out of town. The food was exceptional. The atmosphere on the patio was beautiful and refreshing.Great family outing!
How could service be so bad? – We went to Z-tejas for my birthday, but there was no celebration, just a couple & a baby, out for a meal. The hostess sat us, apparently ignoring the toddler in my arms. She left, and I assumed she was headed off to get a high-chair. A few minutes later, I see her walk by, and I ask for a high-chair...another few minutes, and I have to ask her again. This time, she shows up with it, and rather than pull out a chair to accomodate the HC, she drops it off behind one of the chairs. Whiskey Tango F... read more
Sides Still Count: side dishes and out-sides – On a Fri. night, restaurant was busy and bar was packed. Why do they own outdoor heat lamps, place them precisely on the patio, and then choose to not use them?? I felt more sorry for the waitstaff and the hostess though than I did for myself for having to wait for the quoted 2 hours. Waitstaff and host staff should not have to belly-up or trample customers just to walk through the restaurant. About the food... main dishes are mainstays for good reason; however, the sides were s... read more
Nice place for large groups – I've been to the restaurant twice with large groups. Both times we made reservations for lunches, and was seated promptly. The food was good and no mess-ups on taking orders or splitting bills. I particularly liked their Chile Relleno, which was not fried (healthy), and full of flavor and surprises, very much like the kind of chile relleno you get from inner mexican cuisine rather than tex-mex. There are also a hand-full of other dishes my friends enjoyed (while I ordered Chile Relleno over and ... read more
One of my Favorite places – I don't think I have ever had a bad experience at Z'Tejas ever. In fact I love to eat there! These are some of my faves that you really just can't go wrong with... Go to either location and order this: Drink- Fruzion (sp?) Margarita: their yummy frozen rita with a floater of fruit infused Patron *yummy* Appetizer- Guacamole and Shrimp tostada bites (well seasoned, guac always good, delicious slaw to accompany tostadas) Dinner- Chorizo Stuffed Pork Medallions: always tender, yummy sauce, very well ... read more
Great Patio dining, mediocre food – Can't complain about the patio dining atmosphere, which is wonderful. However our food was just a little above average (maybe even just average) considering it was barely warm and not much to distiguish it from lesser priced restaurants in town. The sides were uninspired although it is a growing chain so consistency must be maintained. I would unltimately say go to this place for the atmosphere don't expect to be blown away by the food.
