Rangers Republic

Loved the nachos (after getting extra queso), our bartender/server and holiday cocktail off the menu. We went on an early Friday night, so it wasn't busy at all.

In Arlington attending a conference and a few of us ventured into Rangers Republic. The restaurant is inside of Texas Live! which is a sports bar/entertainment center that has multiple restaurants, multiple bars and giant TVs all around. The place is huge on the inside, very lively and fun.Our waitress was awesome and helpful. She made a couple of great suggestions. The best one being the Mashed Potato Flautas. I definitely recommend those. Crispy on the outside, flavorful and soft on the inside. The mahi tacos were just okay. I feel like the shell and the toppings overpowered the fish. I would've liked corn tortillas as an option or they should heat up the flour tortillas. Overall the experience was good.

Food portions are fairly large. The nachos could feed 4 people. The service is really good. The restaurant has two levels. It's clean and spacious. Highly entertaining with a game or concert happening that day.

The single star is for the sports viewing experience - they have multiple HUMONGOUS screens so there's no doubt that you will find your game (not sure if they show ALL sports though).I came on a Monday night - the entire place was fairly busy but not PAKCED...THERE IS NO SERVICE HERE. We waited around 10 minutes at the bar before even seeing anyone who resembled waitstaff... the first two waiters we waved down signaled to us that they'd be back but never came. At this point the table near us told us they had been waiting forever too and they were losing hope. Finally we literally ran after the next waiter we saw and he helped us!The food came out fast, but it was too fast... the SALSA ON THE SIDE WAS FROZEN...We ordered brisket tacos and shrimp tacos. The brisket tacos tasted like they came out of a bag and were smothered in spicy BBQ sauce... the shrimp tacos tasted like a napkin - which at least balanced out the brisket tacos.The cocktails were OK... we asked for water 3 times and never received it... I'm the end, we regretted coming. Next time we will go to the Mexican dive spot nearby instead.

food was good . happy hour specials are great. atmosphere is awesome. get there early to get a table.

Had a lovely dinner at the bar. My server Tyler was amazing. Not only did she handle a bar all on her own with the pink concert and did it with perfectionism and poise despite intoxicated patrons and a very busy and slammed night. I was treated with kindness and respect. I would highly recommend the bar seating when she is at the bar. Thank you for an excellent meal.

We all got fajitas and they are really good. Price is much cheaper than I am used to. Steak was flavorful and surprisingly tender. Comes out on a sizzling platter as it should. Comes with plenty of flour tortillas. I'd eat it again for sure. Everyone thought food was great. Service was good but not great. Did not come back to refill drinks. Ambience is sports bar style.

I'm in town for the women evolved conference and the restaurant was SUPER packed, which led to slow service. I tried the loaded fries and they were pretty good. If you get them order an additional meat. I ordered it as is with the chorizo. Once I got my plate regretted not ordering more meat. They're a little spicy which was a plus for me and very filling. The vibe is your normal sports bar and it's super conveniently located if you're at globe life field.

Attended MimosaFest, Rangers Republic was one of the few restaurants open during this event - which I appreciated. However RR seemed to lack the staff to handle dining during event. Food could only be ordered on one side of the restaurant, we sat for a while waiting to be greeted not being made aware of that. Finally I checked with a bartender and was told I'd have to find seating on the other side to order food. Moved to that side, waited another 15 + mins to get attention of waitress. The staff we saw were noticeably agitated & overwhelmed --- never were they rude though, so I do give credit there!Finally order food, again the wait takes a while. Food comes 2/3 entrees were cold. Not our waitresses fault but we made her aware, she offered to have the meals recooked. We politely declined. Bar area- again nice staff. We were there for mimosa fest so we tried whichever mimosa they were featuring not a mixed cocktail/beer. So can't weigh in on other drinks but the mimosa was good.

Super busy !! Long wait and food and drinks were not good Great location. They just didn't have enough staff. They were trying hard though
