This place is well positioned within walking distance to multiple hotels, which is one of the key reasons for my visit. I've eaten here multiple times, and I have no complaints.The menu is a bit different from other Tex-Mex offerings in the area and I always like it when a place can mix up the norm. I honestly don't recall what I've had each time, but again, I keep coming back? The warm salsa is also a nice change of pace, I recommend requesting their "spicy" offering as well!Service is good, not outstanding, but zero complaints.Overall, I'd recommend checking the place out! They've got a really great outside patio as well!

We've only been twice and both times the food was delicious. I had the mole enchiladas, which, Angelo, our server, lit up when I ordered it saying that's the gold when it comes to mole. He was absolutely correct. It is really appreciated when Sylvia stopped by to welcome us and tell us they were holding a tamales making class. I ordered 2 dozen to go. Ceviche, crab tamales, chix tacos, queso flameado with chorizo were some of the highlights. Everyone came to sing happy birthday to one of the guests. The restaurant was also decorated for the upcoming holiday season. Keep us the great work.

Food is delicious. I got the same pico. That is shrimp. Enchiladas basically. The presentation is not that pretty but the food was good. The other is the beef nachos. It was seasoned very well and taste great. The service was excellent. And the ambience is family oriented.

A very nice Mexican restaurant that caters to families more than partiers (Yeah!). As you might guess, the main menu focus is on enchiladas, and they have plenty to choose from. The dishes we tried featured well-seasoned ground beef (Donna) and chicken (San Miguel) with just enough rice and beans to make a satisfying lunch. We weren't sure which of the two servers that came by our tables was really ours at first, but that was solved quickly. Given the taste and the turnaround time, we will be back!

Great food by one of Texas's foremost Tex-Mex chefs! Sylvia's Enchilada Kitchen offers cooking classes that include hands-on learning, a margarita, and a full dinner (with a sopapillla for dessert). They also offer cooking classes. I spent this rainy Saturday learning to make tamales in the 3-hour class, ate a great meal (included in the price of the class), and got to bring half a dozen pork and chicken ones home. Sylvia, the "Enchilada Queen", hopes to debut her chili gravy, green enchilada sauce, and salsa at Texas grocery stores in the coming year, and I can't wait! Until then, I had to settle on an autographed cookbook.

I just tried Sylvia's on Thursday and I'm so glad that I did. I normally don't eat salsa because I'm not a big fan of tomatoes. I really enjoyed the salsa here maybe because it didn't have huge chunks of tomatoes. Yes, it was thin in consistency and it didn't have alot of heat but I guess that's why I liked it so much. I'm a huge wimp with spicy food. I ordered the Enchiladas Suiza which were delicious! The chicken was white meat and not at all fatty. The cream sauce was divine and the lettuce on top made it very light and refreshing! I will definitely be back when I'm in this part of town. The cooking classes sound like so much fun!

The wife and I went to Sylvia's for the first time on National Margarita Day. It's close to our house so less tipsy mileage coming back. Thank the Universe we decided this! Keep reading!Sylvia's has a nice layout and awesome atmosphere. Not what we were expecting for this area. They bring out chips and two red salsas. Both were bland and not at all spicy, but not to worry. It gets better from here. The wife had The Mexico City (chicken enchiladas) and I had The Puebla (enchiladas de carnitas con salsa mole). These dishes were . The servings were reasonable so we didn't end up with stomach bloat or having to get any to go. And did I mention ?Now the reason for the day. The wife ordered a green apple margarita and I had the "Perfect" Margarita. They automatically add an extra shot topper if you get it frozen, and mine was so strong I wondered if we'd make it home. ONE margarita baby! The wife's kicked in once we got home so we were set for the night. Definitely recommend!
