La Condesa

My husband and I enjoyed a lovely evening at La Condesa. The margaritas were top-notch, but the cantarito didn't quite hit the mark. The pork belly chicharrón with guacamole was flavorful and perfectly cooked. To cap off the evening, the fried cheesecake was a sweet and satisfying end to our meal. A delightful spot for a quick date with excellent food and drinks!

Just tried out a restaurant called La Condesa with a friend. We wanted to have some drinks, but many of the items on the menu were not available, and they didn't have any hot drinks. So we ended up ordering one alcoholic drink and a water. Unfortunately, my water wasn't refilled promptly, and the server checked on us after we finished eating, probably because they wanted us to leave since we were chatting for a while.The menu had some interesting options, and I decided to try the sope trio appetizer, which was quite tasty. However, my friend didn't like her chicken dish, especially considering it cost $26 for just a piece of chicken with sauce on it, rice and salad. The food overall was a bit disappointing, especially considering the prices they charge. On the positive side, the restaurant had a nice ambiance.-TODOELPASO

First off. Love the area, love the vibe. Really walked in and thought "this is what El Paso needs more of"The drinks were pretty delicious. Lots of choices of Tequila However, the food was blah. We ordered about half the menu as a group and i wasn't impressed by anything. I will be back. I will just eat before I show up for drinks.

Great vibes. Great Latin/ reggaeton music! Drinks were tasty but food was meh. The tacos don't come with rice or beans, portions are small and expensive. Ordered the potato tacos and they were literally 4 mini tacos made with mashed potatoes lol. The waiter didn't even mention this either. Other than that m, everyone I interacted with was friendly.

We enjoyed the view and my meal and drinks pictured below were outstanding. My friend got the Salmon and it was not cooked, so she got very sick. My meal was amazing and I would go again for drinks and ambiance. No seafood dish for us again tho!

5/5 stars for atmosphere - there was live music inside (we sat on the patio, as it was much cooler than inside). I suggest moving the music outside as it was VERY loud inside. The place is beautiful though - transports you out of El Paso and into a lush tropical vibe instead. The waitresses seem very overwhelmed, unfortunately. Ours was great, but you could tell she was stressed with how many tables she had. It took about ten minutes after sitting to get seen, but the drinks and food came out very quickly after we ordered.The drinks and appetizer we got were phenomenal, but the entrees were meh. Not worth the price in my opinion. We went for our anniversary, and it was something new - we may try back in a month or so and maybe the kinks will have worked themselves out.Great spot though to meet up with friends for drinks and appetizers!

Service was not good. We made a reservation and they didn't have a table for us, we had to sit outside in the cold and their heater didn't work either. The food was okay, definitely come for the vibes and not food lol

A tropical forest restaurant with nice lighting and seating, definitely lives up to the condesa vibe. Start off with a few drinks to get your Sunday funday going, the mix drinks are all delicious: ranked best to alright Cantarito (rum, coconut, guava), clamato, Pina colada (with real coconut), Silvia (gin, soju, pomegranate, citrus, butterfly tea).The calamari was a bit salty but they were nice enough to remake it for us, top service! The chicarrons was amazing with the guac and Jam.We had burgers and tacos, a bit pricey but all delicious. 10/10 rec!

We visited La Condesa for the first time on May 10th, Mexican Mothers Day. My significant other had a difficult time getting a hold of somebody and had to call over 14 times to get an answer and makes a reservation. He insist so much because he knew I wanted to try this place out. Our reservation was at 4pm, for 7 people.I'll start off by letting you know that the Montecillo area is not a cheap area to dine or shop, therefore, we knew the bill for 7 people was going to be a decent amount, however the cost this time wasn't equivalent to the service , food nor the location. Initially as you walk in they don't really have a greeting both, the hostess have a location near the edge of the bar where they have their personal belongings out on display such as lipstick and hair products. The hostess had no recollection of our reservation since it was a gentleman that answered my husbands 14th call and we where told that gentleman often forgets to let the restaurant know of the reservations ‍ She had a terrible attitude as if this was our fault and not that of poor management. She's a younger person not sure why she opted to work directly with people if she has such a poor attitude. She couldn't provide us a table because they where reserved and of course I was then confused since we had out reservation down too. She accommodated us at a booth.The booth are super low once you sit down. I am 5'5 and my knees where above my torso as I sat. The cushions where so flat and poorly designed you couldn't really reach they table comfortably. The booth also had a split in the middle seating area that was covered in cheap vinyl. We also noticed that the chairs at the bar are also covered in this mis of white and black cheap vinyl with bad metallic edging. None of the booth chairs match each other and have a terrible slit along the back of the poorly wrapped chairs. The light fixtures are all aligned poorly off of the center of the booths as opposed to being centered on to the booths. Our server was nice but we had to continuously ask for our drinks to be refilled. She kept forgetting things to bring to the table and the food took a while to arrive. We didn't order any cocktails nor apps because we really only stayed due to it being a busy day and we would have had a difficult time finding another place to take my mother to.We should have left but figured things would improve once the food got to our table. The food was a 4 out of 10, the tacos had cold meat and loaded with onions and cilantro. The shrimp I had was very good but came with 3 shrimp and the mashed potatoes under where non-existent. My daughters fries where so good but the burger meat didn't taste anything like Wagyu. We had it before and this was dry and not flavorful at all. My sons kids plate quesadilla has some cilantro and California chile inside, the quesadilla is a kids plate, it should be queso and tortilla de harina, that's it! I tried taking the condiments out but it was impossible, So that was returned and re-done for us, so we waited longer for his food. My other sons chicken tenders where hard as a rock. I didn't take pictures of my sons Neal but he didn't like the sauce the Chamorro was suppose to be covered in. He's had it before and he said this suave was very bitter. My mother liked her Aracherra steak. I tried it and both enjoyed the sauce it was smothered in. Overall the experience was a flop, we won't be returning and I suggest you make sure you really wanna spend your money at such a place to give it some thought. I'm glad El Paso is expanding and we are starting to see expansion of dinning experiences but this was not one we'd recommend.

We took a chance on this place despite the poor choice of colored lighting and tacky fake vines everywhere in hopes of a delicious meal, but was saddened to receive overly priced flavorless soggy pastor tacos ($15) and some mystery tortilla soup ($6) (tasted like it had shrimp in it ?) . They turn the music up so loud you cannot hear the person across the table . I wanted to include a pic with and without flash so one can see what impact visual aesthetic really does have . Overall wasn't the worst but if your in the mood for some delicious Mexican fare there are plenty of other options that are far tastier that won't gut your pocket as much as this place does .
