Best Restaurants for People Watching in Trinity Groves

We visited to celebrate the man’s birthday. We arrived early since we planned to visit a couple of other places afterward. When we got there, it was fairly empty, but it didn’t stay that way for long. The space is really spacious. We dined in the main dining room, and the service was excellent. The host, servers, and manager were all very friendly. For appetizers, we ordered the wagyu pigs in a blanket and pepperoni and sausage pizza. I had a shot of tequila, while the man enjoyed an Old Fashioned and an IPA. The appetizers were delicious. I couldn’t decide if I liked the honey mustard crème sauce that came with the pigs in a blanket, but I definitely enjoyed them without the sauce. For our main dishes, we had the roasted salmon and steak frites. The salmon had a perfectly crispy top layer and was cooked to a perfect medium. It was delicious! It came with butternut squash farro, which I wasn’t sure how I felt about, but it was interesting. The steak frites were flavorful and also cooked to a perfect medium. Very tasty. Unfortunately, we had no room left for dessert. We spent about $190, including the tip. After we paid, we went to check out the rooftop. It was stunning—spacious, with tables and seating perfectly arranged to showcase the beautiful city skyline and lights. We grabbed two more drinks at the bar and soaked in the view, spending another $35 with tip. We would definitely return and plan to opt for rooftop dining next time. Highly recommend!

We had a great dinner at Te Deseo. I made reservations before a concert at AAC and it was an easy walk from the parking lot and then to the concert. Our server and the manager were helpful in picking items for us to share. The charred octopus and the fried rice were our favorites! The cocktails were great and we enjoyed the ambiance. We all agreed we’d come back, especially prior to an event at AAC.

I had an incredible dining experience at The Mexican From the moment we arrived, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for the evening. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. The menu offered a perfect mix of traditional and contemporary Mexican dishes, and every bite was bursting with authentic flavors. The freshly made guacamole was the best I’ve ever had, and the carne asada tacos were cooked to perfection. The margaritas were equally impressive, with a variety of creative options alongside the classic ones. The bartender really knows their craft! Overall, The Mexican delivers an amazing combination of excellent food, drinks, and hospitality. It’s a must-visit spot for anyone craving Mexican cuisine. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

Always enjoy eating here! It’s one of our favorites before seeing a show downtown.

Breathe taking. This restaurant precedes itself with its reputation nothing but quality from start to finish. Food was emaculent hats off to the chefs. Our waitress was amazing aswell. Definitely will recommend and I’ll be back!
