Had the table side Guacamole. Best ever! Highly recommend a stop for Guac and a couple of drinks. Screwdriver appeared to be made with fresh squeezed orange juice. Delicious.

We've eaten at Gabriel's several times and have never been disappointed. Service is superb which seems to be a rarity at restaurants theses days. Christian, our waiter, was fun, energetic and attentive.

As usual, a great place to dine! Our server, Carina, was very friendly and professional. I have only two small complaints. The charro beans were served cold, and the guacamole was mixed with sour cream. I prefer my guacamole to be just avocado. I don’t know why it was mixed, other than to make it go a long way, but it’s not good.

We had a reservation and were seated upon our arrival at the reservation time. However, we waited at least 15 minutes without anyone stopped by our table. My husband had to go to the hostess stand to ask if we had a waiter. The food was fine. Nothing spectacular but not bad either. Additionally the reservation indicated the occasion was a birthday which was not acknowledged. I’d give it an overall meh. Not great but not horrible.

It’s not what it used to be. The new owners have changed enough with some of the dishes that it just ain’t the same. It’s okay, will probably go back but it’s dissapointing.

The food was amazing! The table side guac was to die for!!! It was great to see so many vegetarian options! I had the veggie taco salad and every bite was wonderful! My husband had the beef fajitas and he said they were awesome! The portions are HUGE! Neither one of us came close to eating everything!! Our server was so sweet and kind! I can’t wait to go back and try something else!!!
