Decent Food HORRIBLE SERVICE – It is pretty unfortunate because this place has pretty decent food, but the staff is so incredibly aweful. There demeanor is gruff and sarcastic and completely unfriendly! I recommend you never ever order food from them to your home - THEY ALWAY MESS UP THE ORDER. The house salad - the lettuce is always so dark and aged. They are unhelpful in substitutions, like no hot peppers and or adding cheese. They charge you for each additional add on. I will be honest, Brooklyn is missing a real jem of a... read more

Go for brunch – The key to enjoying Lobo is -- surprisingly -- going for brunch. They've got a thick-cut brioche French toast that's classically perfect, served with grade-A syrup. And the breakfast tacos transcend expectations. They've got a touch of heat and a pile of flavor -- a wonderful savory breakfast. For dinner, Lobo is passable, but not spectacular. For brunch: Rarely crowded, consistently great.

My Choice in the Neighborhood – While I am not a chef, or from Texas, I do think this place is excellent. And I really like the atmosphere of the restaurant. I live in the neighborhood and Lobo is usually my choice for a drink, or a casual group dinner or nights when spending $60 on dinner for two is out of the question. Its a super cozy, friendly place with a very welcoming staff and laid back feeling. The margaritas are really good, especially the ones made with the flavored tequilas (I like the ginger). The beef fajitas a... read more

Tex-Mex that'll satisfy wolfish appetites--and some of the best margaritas in the area. – The Scene Located in the two-floor space formerly occupied by Harvest, Lobo piles on Southwestern decor that tips perilously close to being kitschy. Sombreros and spurs line the walls; banquettes are covered in a cow pattern. Still, the space emits genuine warmth, thanks in no small part to the friendly, efficient waitstaff. The Food Portions on the appealing Tex-Mex menu are extremely generous, but flavors tend to be on the mild side. ... read more

My new favorite restaurant! – Okay, I am obsessed. I absolutely love this restaurant - to hang inside at the bar or if the weather is nice, the backyard is amazing too. I can't get enough of chips w/ Georgia's Bean Dip (I swear, I dream about it at night) and the fajitas and soft tacos. There are enough options to cater to non-spicy food people like me, as well as those that like it hot hot hot. This place actually makes the commute from Manhattan worth it - sometimes twice in the same week!

TEX MEX – If you review this place or if you have been there and were disappointed in the Mexican food it is because it is Tex Mex cuisine. That being said it made my taste buds stop missing Texas so much as I felt like I was back home with an El Arroyo style patio, cheap queso and salty Ritas. Great combo platters with heart-stopping, or at least clogging enchiladas and refried beans.

Ok tex mex – this place has a decent margarita, and a cool outside area going for it, but could use an upgrade in the service department. Still its a good spot with good chicken enchiladas.

Terrific – We just visited Lobo recently and were so impressed with the authenticity of the Tex Mex cuisine. The flavors are great, the relaxed environment is fun and easy...and the margaritas are terrific. We highly recommend sitting in the garden and enjoying some wonderful food and drinks. We especially loved the Sassy enchiladas and the extremely flavorful bbq ribs.

Finally! – If you have spent any time in Texas, you will recognize Lobo as the real thing. NYC has until now been sorely lacking authentic Tex-Mex food, so thank heavens for these people. The service is super-friendly and the margaritas are terrific, great for washing down Lobo's spot-on chilli con queso (which transplanted Texans know is hard to find in this city!) Definitely worth a quick trip to Brooklyn on the F train. If you don't like it, then you don't know Tex-Mex!
