Absolutely loved our experience here! The food was delicious fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was top-notch; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere was cozy and stylish, with just the right vibe for a casual dinner or a special night out. Everything came together perfectly. Highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back

I came here on Cinco de Mayo to try Ometeo's Fajitas de Res con Todo. I started with a Torta with Chicken Milanesa. The bread was nice, but the chicken was super thin and mostly breading. The chips and salsa were fresh and great. I tried the Tacos Hongos. The flavor was ok, but the texture was off. It felt too slimy. The fajitas were supposed to be the star of the show. The presentation was outstanding. Serving the meat on the beef ribs was a nice touch. I wished the meat had more flavor. The beans were bland and tasteless. They tasted like they came straight from a can. The rice was better. The beef rib meat was overcooked and not medium , as I requested, and had the texture of a pot roast. The meat tasted bland and not seasoned. The cheese became melted on the cast iron skillet and became a mess to try to eat it and incorporate it into a tortilla. The picture looked so promising, but the reality left much to be desired. Another note: serving diet coke in a 12 oz bottle for $4 seems excessive. Your carafe of water was room temperature, and I was never offered ice for my cup. Not a good experience. The live mariachi band was a nice touch, but it could not salvage the evening. I have had far better fajitas for a fraction of the $83 price these cost. I was so disappointed 😞

I visited Ometeo for the second time, and once again, it exceeded all expectations. The atmosphere is incredibly warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. They start you off with a delightful basket of chips and two delicious dips — truly outstanding! The appetizers were excellent, and every dish we ordered was full of flavor and made with high-quality ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience, and I will definitely be returning again soon.

My family and I went to Ometeo for dinner, and to say that it was amazing would be an understatement. From the moment we walked in everyone was so attentive and caring. The atmosphere was very nice, there was music and the dinning room which was filled to capacity was filled with chatter and ppl laughing and having a wonderful time. The food was absolutely delicious. The Ceviche was so good and the homemade salsa was so good. The appetizers and entrees were so beautifully garnished, they looked like something out of a magazine. The server, Sam was always around and attentive. I really recommend this place for family outings, dates, or just casual dinner experience

Modern Tex-Mex with a stylish interior. Happy hour has a variety of margaritas and entrees. The fajitas come with delicious melted cheese, though the meat wasn’t served sizzling. The juicy burger and fresh carnitas taco were both great. Friendly service and fun atmosphere.

Our experience at Ometeo was incredible. Between eating the food, enjoying the atmosphere and receiving exceptional service from the staff we kept remarking that we were truly blown away. Our server Cindy went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. We hope they add their current special (aguachile negro) to the menu! The esquites was a great mixture of sweet, smoky and salty. The beef short rib (costillas & ayocotes) was so tender you could pull the meat off in one clean swipe. I enjoyed the add on of crispy manchego cheese with the steak tacos (matamoros tacos). We were sad we were too full to try their desserts. We will definitely be coming back :)

Food was great, Drinks were smashing, vibrant atmosphere on a friday night. We came for a birthday dinner with friends and spent over $500, it was a great experience. Kids loved their food as well.

The decor was so attractive, from the impressive outside bar area to the beautiful space indoors. The atmosphere was really good. Great food which was so fresh, you could tell it was good quality. Excellent service from Cindy! The short rib tacos were amazing and the Mezcal Mule too. We will definitely come back! Forgot to take photos of everything but the dessert was impressive! 🔥

Great for large groups with a vibrant ambiance and lots of indoor/outdoor space. While the food and drinks are good, it's quite pricey ($27 fajitas, $7 side of rice and beans, you can easily spend $100 on a couple of entrees and drinks). The restaurant is across the street from the Performing Arts Center and has plenty of indoor and some outdoor seating. Glad to complimentary chips and salsa! The warm fried chips are delicious and the best part of our meal! The salsa has a very spicy kick particularly the green Salsa Verde, and prefer the more mild Brown salsa. Also nice to see the menu expand to happy hour and brunch and more vegetarian dishes added to the menu - spicy Hongos mushroom enchiladas, quesadillas, tacos, and Nopales Veggie Fajitas! The 1st time I got the Veggie Fajitas, it came with grilled mushrooms, sweet potato, pineapple. The 2nd time, these hearty veggies seem to have disappeared and it's just grilled corn with some peppers and onions. The crispy manchego cheese is the best part served with a mix of warm flour/corn tortillas made daily in-house along with rice and beans. The 3rd time was better than the 2nd, but not quite a charm. The chunky Nopales cactus veggie was too big to stuff into the tortillas. Mushrooms and peppers would pare better. The $14 for Guacamole is a bit pricey and can be a hit/miss. The fresh crispy chips are usually served warm and the guac had a spicy kick with some chili powder sprinkled on top and surprisingly stayed fresh the next day, last time the guac was a bit soggy. You get also get a side side of it. The Huevos Rancheros on the Brunch menu was okay. It was the standard crispy round tacos shells with a sunny side eggs and black beans soaking in spicy mole sauce and mild green verde sauce. The Kids menu is surprisingly really good, the Cheese Quesadilla was a crispy and delicious, and a generous size! The cocktail are pre-made in large batches on draught. my favorites are the Guava & Hibiscus Margarita, and the Mezcal Mule. Both the Maverick cocktail with vanilla vodka, guava-hibiscus cordial, lime, served with sparkling wine & passion fruit caviar and Above the Clouds Negroni cocktail with strawberry-infused mezcal, vermouth, aperitivo mazzura, arroz were watered down. I wish the drinks were made to order. The Cinco de Mayo event (1-5pm) was a bit chaotic, we got there around 1:30pm. We waited 20 min for a table and took another 15 min for our server to come over. The Taco and Tamale specials were a bit misleading from the flyers and only served at the bar. The $10 Margarita specials were available at the tables. The facepainting was not very good. I graciously accept freebies and typically don't complain about them, the staff was a bit rude to my daughter and did a poor job. The restaurant wasn't really well equipped to handle large crowds and seemed overwhelmed. If you're going to a show, it's worth checking out the restaurant and grabbing dinner or drinks. Given its convenient location across the street. I've added Ometeo to our rotation and excited to try new dishes on the menu!

Food is good, the drinks are good and the ambiance is good. They just need to work on the menu and portions. It's expensive and when your plates such as beef cheak barbacoa you can bearly make two tacos. And one of the three has so much fat that I don't eat it. So you basically pay $40 for 2 tacos. I always spend about $100 there when I go and leave hungry. I also tried to order things like chile relleno but they don't put any meat in it. I go to Mexican restaurants to get authentic food not vegetarian food. I requested a beef one when I was there last time but the chef didn't want to make me one. I would love to eat there more often but it's too much money to leave there hungry.

Food here is super good but a little overpriced in my opinion. I work in Capital One center so come here often. Would recommend the fish tacos. Last time I came for lunch, they were missing a bunch of stuff so the full menu wasn't available and my vegetarian coworker was given a meal that wasn't really up to the standard of the food that is found in the menu.

It's a pretty nice place to be frank, very visually appealing, and weather permitting the outdoor seating is probably the best area of the restaurant. I frankly don't have anything bad to say but there's just something missing that would make me want to go back immediately. Service was great, food was good, it's family friendly, and that's about it. For the area, it's definitely a standout. I just wish I had tried the tres leches, maybe that would have put my review at 5/5.

Met friends for lunch in Tyson's and decided to try Ometeo because we love Mexican and because of the great reviews Ometeo had as a new restaurant. The restaurant is located in the Capital One center in Tyson's and parking is a bit confusing because signage isn't the greatest but the main parking lot for the restaurant is next to the main entrance of the Capital One building. The restaurant is aesthetically beautiful both inside and out due to the unique color palette and decor in addition to the outdoor seating and bar. The menu is filled with so many wonderful options and literally 100% of everything we ordered was DELICIOUS! I had the Mezcal Hibiscus margarita which was out of this world and my friends had a frozen aqua fresca which they said was equally amazing! Our favorite "dip" we ordered to accompany the chips was the queso with chorizo ... absolutely the best chorizo and queso dip we've ever had. I ordered the steak fajitas and let me just say that they were honestly the most tasty and perfectly cooked steak fajitas I've had in a long time. And the tortillas and salsas that came along with them were crazy good too! We had dessert and while the dessert menu was limited AND the main options were desserts we typically didn't care for, we said since the food has been 100% hitting that we had faith the dessert would be too .... AND WE WERE RIGHT! OMG! That dang flan literally blew my mind ... it reminded us of a sweet potato and apple custard and we cleaned the plate! And then the tres leches ... BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS!!! Truly the most unique flan and tres leches ever! Our server Joya (*spelling) was also super attentive and fun which was the cherry on top of the entire experience. We said that Ometeo is our new FAVORITE Mexican / Tex-Mex restaurant in NOVA ... and we WILL be back!

Beautifully decorated interiors, friendly service, and flavor-packed tacos! Food was delicious! Pricey but pretty good portions and the price seemed appropriate given its Tyson's location. Tacos and quesadillas were all around $20-25. But they were very filling, super flavorful, and generously portioned. Seating: lots of great indoor and outdoor seating. Parking: there's a surface parking lot right next to the Capitol one building. The restaurant does not validate parking but it's free for the first 2 hours.

What a great addition to the Tysons/Capital One Hall area. It's a vibrant if not loud environment. The menu is enticing and the quesadillas and enchiladas were very good and in sufficient quantity. The sides are very good. I love the martini which was a unique combination of margarita and martini. Service both visits was excellent though we asked someone clearing dishes for another drink and was told to tell our server. . Atmosphere is fun, parking nearby and and outdoor bar and seating for when weather is nice.

The vibe of this place was really fitting for the food they offer. Place is huge and great place to bring a big group of people. The service was great! They were very attentive as much as they could, considering how big this restaurant is. We ordered the guac app and for entre: Fajitas - De Res (skirt steak, bone-in short rib & rib eye) for two. SO GOOOD. It was somewhat oily, but sooo good. Fresh food, fresh tortilla with 2 Guava & Hibiscus Margaritas. Keep in mind, the pricing is pretty expensive. I would come here occasionally, but if you have not tried it, I would recommend for you to try!

First of all we were a group of 10 walk in which is inherently difficult to accommodate. At first they sent us upstairs, and we were told it would be two and a half hours before they could seat us. That was fine we were a group catching up from all over the country. We drank the Big Mexican Martini, Dobleo Chile, and the Hibiscus Guava drink. The drinks were excellent. We also got guacamole to share. Their chips were awesome, their guacamole could be a little more seasoned, the seasoned top just wasn't enough. Noir (sp)- one of the staff members actually ended up accommodating our entire party and sat us within 20 minutes which was phenomenal service. The service here is the absolute best. We got the Fajitas De Res con todo and wow that is the best meal for two. The steak was so tender and delicious I would 100% recommend getting this. It comes with cactus, peppers, sauces, and goodness they have the best beans. Their rice tastes similar to uncle Ben's Spanish rice but was topped with cilantro and cheese. Overall the service here is PHENOMENAL Brian was extremely kind and helpful in working through the accommodations for our party. The food was great overall and I would recommend this place for any type of celebration.

Came for HH and found myself very underwhelmed with the menu options for HH & Dinner. None of the food was amazing but drinks were decent, though I wouldn't order the Ometeo margarita again as it's on tap and tasted too much like Margarita mix for me. The space is beautiful though, especially the upstairs lounge area.

My partner took me to Ometeo for the first time this month, and we had a great evening. Service was good, and the food and drinks were delicious. The restaurant is located near the Capital One headquarters in Tysons. There is a parking lot for the public off of Capital One Drive, to the left of the building where the restaurant is located. Ometeo also validates parking. The restaurant's interior is modern and elegant, with touches of Mexican culture throughout. We were seated right within view of the kitchen, and it was nice to be able to watch fresh tortillas being made while waiting for our dishes. Our server was friendly and took the time to explain menu options to us. Our drinks were flavorful and strong, and we ordered the cerdo con todo fajitas, which was more than enough for two people to share. The food was served atop a vessel with a flame to keep everything sizzling, and all of the meats were delicious. We had carnitas, jalapeño chorizo, and short rib, accompanied by a side of cheese that slowly melted and became crispy over the flame. I thought it was a very unique way to serve fajitas. Dessert was also delicious - don't skip!

Great HH drinks! My friend and I decided to grab a drink after the 9-5 and we had a great experience! The bartender was super nice and we even got free spiked mango smoothies to try. They were SO yummy! We sat outside but they also have a nice inside area. They even have a private area upstairs to host events. Didn't get to try the food but the couple next to us ordered a fajitas and it looked amazing!!

Where to start. I made a last minute reservation for Friday night and luckily there were openings. First impressions were the decor was really pretty and on brand for Tex-Mex. But not over done. Lighting was perfect and warm, not too dark where you can't read the menu. Onto the food. I grew up eating a lot of Tex-Mex.... In Texas, so I am very picky. I was not disappointed! The salsas were so tasty and the chips were thick but fresh! I got the duck tacos and they were so juicy. Loved it! Drinks were fantastic as well! Our waitress, Nicki, was so sweet. She had so much energy and was overall such a delight. Dessert was gas, my table got the s'mores flambé and my parents got the flan. Food, service, ambiance were all a 10/10 but my only gripe was the restroom was on the 2nd floor.

A few coworkers and I decided to stop in for a happy hour/birthday celebration. Unfortunately, the restaurant has only been open for two months so they do not necessarily have a happy hour menu. However, drinks and food are reasonably priced. We decided to sit in the upper eating area. Our server was definitely attentive and personable. I will say, I understand that the restaurant wants to ensure that patrons and their tables are clear of clutter and trash, however, when someone continuously comes around to wipe, pick up the bites of guac that I haven't finished yet, and other silverware,...it can come off a bit abrasive and rushy..- that and the fact that a manager is just standing in the dining room watching everyone eat. Overall, I will say that I enjoyed the appetizers more than the entrées. The duck was just OK, ..,though tender it needed a little more seasoning. And the fried snapper, I thought would be the entire fish, including the head, and eyes not filleted for me. The quesadilla was pretty good. I enjoy the abstract plating of it all just needs a bit more Mexican/Texan flavor for my pallet. Cocktails were good. My favorite was the old fashioned.

Stopped by for bar bites and well - aesthetic and vibe 10/10 - and I'm sorry to say this but my two little items did not stand out in flavour as much as they did in price. I got a marg and 6 oysters for $40. Also, I didn't really like my oysters - and I loveee oysters so it was disappointing. The oysters didn't have any saltiness / flavour and they didn't have Tabasco sauce. 3 stars because I feel there's potential, there's a Lot more items on the menu that I can try but just based off my experience this time - not too great. I also had to flag down my server a couple times despite being seated right in front of him. Worth a try but portion to price ratio makes this place a pricier tex mex spot.

This is a very cozy place, but it does get quite loud, so sometimes it is hard to have a quiet conversation. The enchiladas are very good in general, but I would say that the mushroom creates a bit of a bitter undertone. Overall, it was pretty good, but I would usually go with the pork. The arroz verde Was very well seasoned rice, and it tasted pretty standard. The Sinaloa sling was really sweet and doesn't have too much of an alcohol taste, which makes it dangerous, because only a third of the way in my cheeks were flushed. Again, very good but very dangerous.

We came here for a work event, and because our budget was $25 a person we had a very small selection of what we could order. Everything was VERY pricey. Chips and salsa, which are normally free at Mexican restaurants, were $9. My duck tacos, although very delicious, were $22 for 2 tacos and no sides. Fajitas seemed like the best bang for your buck so I'd probably try those next time, plus they looked delicious! Everything we had was flavorful and great but just so expensive.

Waited for MONTHS seeing this place on advertisement everyday while at work. My excitement was through the roof as i love their sister conpany "salt line." This place has so much potential, it's beautiful and absolutely spscious. Perfect for amazing drinks. The food on the other hand was terrible. Out of the 4 items we got. One being ceviche, fajitas, kids quesadillas, and tacos. The ceviche was good 4/5 and the kids chicken quesadilla was 5/5. My daughter loved it. Everything else was a hard pass. Food's presentation is gorgeous and eye catching, but taste was NOT THERE. Drinks were extremely delicious, it would just need good food to compliment it. Service is nice, however we had to ask the young man 5 times for plates to share and silverware. Napkins weren't presenr either. Hopefully this is all just an opening hiccup.

The restaurant is in a convenient location. They do not validate parking, but the lot is free for the first 2 hours. The workers were all polite and respectful. The part that was lost on me was the food. The aesthetic of the dishes were all beautiful. But it just kept feeling like there's a lack of flavor and authenticity. I love Hispanic food, especially Mexican food. But for the price I paid, I don't think the dishes matched my expectations. But that's not to say the workers were not lovely, they were all very kind and patient.

I really like the ambiance and decor to place, especially the upstairs bar and lounge. Very comfortable seating and a great place to relax and drink. The food itself is decent. I ordered the steak fajita, and while it had great flavors, steak was a little tough and portions weren't as big as I thought it would be. So overall a great place to drink and I would like to come back to try other food items.

Margarita lovers, pay attention!! I say this with my entire chest!!! This place has the best spicy margarita I have ever had in my life! I honestly have no idea what they did, but it was good. The Bar and Staff is super friendly and has a variety of tequilas, the service from the managers and the staff was excellent. I travel up to Tysons for work and I'm really excited to have this new restaurant in the neighborhood. This is not your typical Mexican restaurant. So things like complementary chips and salsa you will not find that here. The portion sizes are much smaller than what you are accustomed to at other traditional Mexican restaurants. However, the food is really good. It's just expensive. The menu is limited for example they don't have things like nachos on the menu and trying to make custom additions like adding lettuce to a fajita order is tricky. The few times I've been to this restaurant I have noticed they do not like to steer away from what is on the menu things generally come as they are. The staff on occasion has been willing to make some exceptions, but that is not always the case so just FYI. this place has a stunning private area for events. Overall, I really like a lot of things about this restaurant. The decor is very pleasing to the eye, the margaritas are delicious and the food is pretty good. Just be prepared to pay a premium price for those things because it is going to cost you.

The place is really nice and the outdoor bar has an awesome vibe. The waitress/bartender that served us was great as well, however the food was underwhelming. The corn app was mediocre and the short rib taco was fine. The steak fajitas though were not seasoned and inedible. They were hard to cut and or chew to the point where we had to send them back and I rarely send stuff back. Would probably come back for drinks but that's about it.

All the food was super good! Got the chips and salsa tres leches and chicken flautas! The tres leches was by far my favorite! I wish they had a happy hour menu! The only reason I give it a 4/5 was because it was a bit pricey and was not as high end as I was expecting for the price. The service was good, the server came around several times, however the explanations for each dish on the menu could have been shorter even though I knew he was trying to be helpful! He also gave us more chips for free! I loved the decor and the overall ambiance of the places I can't wait until the outdoor bar opens up!

Such a huge restaurant and beautiful inside! The food was totally a 5/5 but the service was so slow. This place was packed on the weekend and full of families with little kids as well so it was loud. I loved the steak fajitas - the steak was perfectly cooked and so tender. The tortillas were really fresh and I loved all the peppers and the salsa the steak fajitas came with! I also tried the fish tacos, super messy but so fresh and definitely some of the best fish tacos I have ever had. The guac was solid but nothing amazing. Def would come back!

I like to try new spots and Ometeo came up as on option and we went on a Wednesday night. The service was great with a pretty big restaurant and an outdoor section as well. Food came out at a great pace. Servers were able to talk about the menu and give great recs. It was pretty full for a Wednesday night and the atmosphere was great! We started with hibiscus and guava cocktails paired with guacamole (which was absolutely delicious we just started eating it before photos). We ordered the beef ny strip tacos and braised chicken enchiladas. The tacos they actually had switched it to ribeye and man were they delicious - the melted cheese with a bit of smoke was absolutely amazing with the ribeye and peppers on top. The enchiladas salsa verde sauce was perfect and we had a side of their corn. If you don't like lime don't get the corn but it was absolutely fantastic for us - that also fell victim to the eat first motto. We wrapped up our meal with the tres leches which was also great. This would be a super cute date night spot or just fun dinner with friends! They have a big space upstairs for events too if needed. There's an easy parking lot right next to it with free two hour parking.

What a fun new spot in Tysons, tucked away in Capital One Center, not visible from 123. Really enjoyed the TexMex vibe that was slightly elevated but still fun and casual. After a busy Friday I tried the Maverick cocktail, a fruity vibe with a side shooter of sparkling wine to add in. Hamachi crudo could have used more acidity for me, and really enjoyed the steak tacos especially with the frizzled layer of cheese inside. Interested to try more items soon.

The waiter and the service made this restaurant worthwhile. Sam was a great waiter and was accommodating to all of our requests. I would recommend him! I ordered the oysters and wasn't a fan of them. The venison tartar was delicious and that was paired with chips. The desserts were delicious as well!

3.5 stars. Good vibe, it's loud and hard to talk if that's what you want. Busy. Private parties going on upstairs. Skinny margarita had no flavor. So we each just had one. I ordered the tacos Costra (steak). It's fried cheese with a very very very very thin slice of meat (maybe) in between hard fried cheese and a tortilla. Disappointed with my choice. My friend had shrimp fajitas and they were ok. Fish taco was better. Just a miss on the food I think and expensive. The chips are so greasy. Why?? Guacamole was decent. I liked the place and vibe but food needs to improve.

The upstairs lounge was so pretty but I only walked by to use the bathroom. I'm from San Antonio and the vibes of this place were sooooo rustic and Tex Mex. I got the quesadilla which was soooo good and my friend got the chicken tacos which he said were very alright. However, the chips and guac were super good and the drinks were outstanding! I'd definitely visit again and try new things next time. Definitely stop by if you want some good quality Mexican food in a nice setting. Service was pretty good too despite being packed. Make a reservation!

Had an amazing time with friends - the chips and salsas are the best I've ever had! We then ordered tacos and ordered an assortment of desserts and we were all in heaven. The waiter there was fantastic, funny, and engaging. I wish I remembered his name but I had 2 margaritas he was bald with a beard lol. Ended up coming back again with my husband this past weekend and the food was just as amazing and our waitress Sarah was attentive and nice. The decor and vibe of the whole restaurant is just beautiful and aesthetic! Def will be a place to come back to again and again.

A new Tex-Mex restaurant in Tysons (across the Performing Arts Center). Great ambiance, but slow service. Would recommend making a reservation, we came on a Friday around 8 pm and they were full for the night. Luckily we were able to sit in their upstairs seating area, which is more lounge-like with sofas, leather seats, and low cushion seats. The drinks were good and so was the quesadilla we ordered. Downside we tried to order chips and they said there was a backorder and would take more than 20 minutes to make. Looking forward to going again to try more from the menu.

I've been into this restaurant. Several times I can say the service here is always exceptional. From the moment, you went to the door to the time you leave the staff always make sure that our needs are met and the food is always excellent. I highly recommended their cocktails as well as their beef dishes! This is a great place for a nice date or an important business meeting. It's a little hard to find from the parking lot, but well worth a little effort.

Pleasant dinner at Ometeo tonight - they have some kinks to work out but there's definitely potential there. The decor and ambiance are welcoming and relaxing - the dining area is intimate, but loud, and the lounge area upstairs is inviting and cozy. Service was impressive - friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The prices are high. Very high for Tex mex. I don't like that they charge $9 for a basket of chips with 3 small saucers of salsa (and the salsas were pretty bland). The dishes were hit or miss. If you have kids who don't handle spicy food well, there aren't a lot of options - most dishes have some heat to them. The beef fajitas were the best I've ever had. Cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly, served with grilled peppers, melted cheese, and hand made tortillas. So tender and flavorful - will come back for this dish. Unfortunately the refried beans served on the side were old and clearly had gotten cold and then sat under a heat lamp for a while... the beans had a thick film on top and were gummy and dry. The quesadillas with chicken tinga were amazing as well - huge portion, cheesy, salty, accompanied by sliced jicama and sour cream. Both the ceviche Classico and hamachi with prickly pear were underwhelming. The fish itself was ok, but the sauces and their accompanying ingredients didn't compliment each other well - they were definitely let downs. As was the stuffie tamal. The masa was nice, but completely overpowered by the chorizo - the smokiness and earthiness made the dish one dimensional unfortunately. My son had the shrimp adobo tacos - which were just ok - he gave them a 6 out of 10. The molten chocolate tamal was not good. The chocolate was bitter, the masa was super grainy, the spiced pecans were disconnected from the test of the dessert. We had 3 agua frescas which were good, but steep at $9 for a very small glass. After tip the bill was $253 which was very expensive. We were so impressed by the fajitas and the ambiance that my wife and I will likely be back, but it won't be a restaurant in any kind of normal rotation.

Had dinner with a group here. The inside of the restaurant and bar are nice, spacious, and open. The event spaces upstairs also look great. I enjoyed the Guava and Hibiscus Margarita I ordered. With that said, I didn't like the food at Ometeo. The dishes my group shared tasted mediocre and were overpriced. The Fish Tacos (2 for $19) and Tacos De Costra (2 for $24) were both drowned in other ingredients like salsas, fried cheeses, and/ or spicy sauces which overpowered the main protein and its natural flavors. The Cerdo Carnitas Fajitas Con Todo was also average not worth the price-- too much burned cheese and overcooked vegetables.

Place has a nice ambiance. Great big bar with decent selection of premium drinks. Frozen margarita is also very good and just the right amount of alcohol. The manager Noir was so accommodating and helpful. She navigated through the reservation to be able to seat me earlier and she was very friendly. Noise level is minimal where you can actually hear each other talk. Food is ok sort of bland actually. I had the braised beef and it was missing flavor. The flan tasted like pumpkin pie and the tres leches was just not the same taste. The service is good in this place but the kitchen needs to taste their cooking. I probably will revisit just for the drinks and ambiance.

Ok so this is a tough one to review. Had suchhhhhh a good time thanks to the company and the drinks were soooo good (manhattans and old fashions). But the food - despite our hunger - was sub par! The chips and salsa (not complimentary) were gawd awful. The tuna ceviche was the best of our selection - fish tacos, beef fajitas, and flautas. Really really wanted to like this place but alas if you're going for the food, best to skip it. PS shoutout to our server Sam - he was great!

Listennnnn.... Ometeo, the parking sucks. HOWEVER, the service is A1. We had a great time with our server (I honestly don't remember her name because she left before we finished) but the best experience was with our backup server Phillipe. He took such great care of us, made us laugh, seriously took our first time from a 5 to a 10. Make sure you order the short rib tacos, the carnitas de pato and the hibiscus guava margarita. We also tried the spicy margarita, 10/10. We will definitely be back with a bigger group. Thanks Ometeo!!

The food was fantastic I went with my sister as we wanted to try a new location. The dishes are a lot bigger than we thought. As well as the drinks are a good size. We have to wait a bit for the food to arrive is expected as it's a huge place and busy. The dishes we tried were amazing true kick to the spicy sauces and well seasoned. We tried 2 different desserts and the flan it was good however it's way too sweet for my liking. Sadly where we sat we were next to a party table so between the music and chatter it can get really loud. Overall it was a good experience.

They are still doing their soft opening, so reservations are highly recommended. Note that they are rapidly booking up fast. The ambiance was of a chic ranch style, and they offer various types of seating options. There is a private room for parties located upstairs. We had ordered the fajitas de res and they come with both flour and corn tortillas, beans, rice, and two types of salsa. The skirt steak was tender and cooked to perfection. It also came with a side of queso fundido on the skillet. After dinner, we ordered the tres leches and the flan. The only critique that I have is that the caramel on the flan was way too sweet. The tres leches had a side of whipped cream that had caramel folded in, and it was subtle.

Snagged a 8pm reso on Thursday. I understand this place is new and a hot spot but bad rating alert! The place was 3/4 full and amazing ambiance & decor. Waited for our party at the bar and the bar tender recommended the spicy margarita (on tap). The drinks were great and service thus far was great. After being seated we were greeted and asked if we wanted drinks. We all ordered a round of spicy margaritas. After that, the server didn't return for 30min.... We waited 30 min to order chips/salsa and another round of water & drinks. Things got so bad we returned to the empty bar to order drinks.... Fast forward, mgmt came to notice our frequent bar visits and sent the server back. We were able to order appetizers and entrees for fear of never seeing the server again. We ordered 2 steak fajitas (medium), shrimp fajitas and shrimp quesadillas. Steak fajitas were charcoal, well done would've been better than the bitter burnt flavor we experienced. The shrimp for the fajitas were semi raw.... The chips and salsa were good but none of us are fans of corn tortillas or corn chips. All of us have been in the bathroom with stomach issues the last 2 days. I won't return until they get their act together!!

A trendy atmosphere with tremendous service! A great location and popular spot for after work drinks and gatherings. The food was delicious and tasty. The beef fajita portion was not as hefty for the price, but luckily had appetizers of chips and salsa and guacamole. Recommend making a reservation as they were almost at capacity for a Wednesday dinner. There is a garage within walking distance that you can get your ticket validated. Overall, a great experience and a must return for us. Enjoy!

Had a superb experience, the cherry on top was our server who's from Saudi Arabia (Menyar) that superseded everyone's expectation (no offense) very knowledgeable, and may in fact be one of their managers due to the way he conducted himself, so they may have been understaffed for some reason but no complaints here in regards to that as we ALL had a ball .. Kudos for having a person like himself be a representative of your establishment of so, if not management, he sure as hell needs to be
