    4th time at Mot Hai Ba. My favorite Dallas restaurant. Fresh and savory flavors with the mix of Vietnamese and European cuisines. Some dishes can be spicy/hot. Shaking beef and garlic noodles are a must. Also recommend Kimchi and Gruyère Fritters, Kim Chi Foie Gras Dumplings. Very cozy ambience — it was a 1 story house converted into a restaurant — can feel a bit cramped. It’s part of the charm and intimacy. Mostly 2-4 tops. There’s one 6-top. Parking can be tricky.

    Visited Mar Y Sol for date night and we had a great experience. Started off with drinks at the bar and asked for recommendations as it was our first time; we ended up going with the hibiscus dragon and the el sabio. Both were great! Once at the table, our server, Andrew, suggested the pulpo al carbon (octopus), the yellowtail ceviche ans the tuna tiradiro, the tuna was my favorite dish of the night!! We had the parillada Argentina for our main course, which is definitely intended to be shared. The meats were tender and the sauces were flavorful. Finished the night with the pina colada crème brûle, which was served in a pineapple, so creative! We let Andrew guide our order with his recommendations and we were not disappointed. He was extremely knowledgeable, which we appreciated as foodies! Lastly, the vibes were there! From the dj to the saxophone and bongos players who walked around the dinner room, it all reminded us of Tulum. Overall, we had a great night and we will definitely be back, 10/10!

    The food, ambience, and service are all fantastic. My only gripe is the dessert menu. You’d think they’d have more than milk and cookies and a lukewarm peach tarte considering how tasty the main dishes are.

    10/10 everything. To start the atmosphere was beautiful. The host Nancy was very kind and welcoming, along with our server, Taylor, she was absolutely lovely and very personable. And to top it all off the food was superb! The perfect spot to have girls nights or host others and wow them, my sister said the flavors were bursting in her mouth lol!
