"I was on the fence about ordering the fish tacos or the filet. Our server recommend the filet and I eternally grateful. It was phenomenal. Easily in the top five of the best filets I’ve had. We also had a ahareable item cannot remember the menu item’s name, but it was biscuits with habanero honey butter. They literally melted in our mouths. The loaded mashed potatoes were also delicious. For cocktails I had the cucumber, also a recommendation from my server, and it was refreshing. Did I mention my server? She was phenomenal. I HIGHLY recommend SALT and will return every time I travel to McAllen for business."

"Lovely interior, crisp service, delicious dishes. But you 'll have to shout at your table companions, esp if you sit along the wall (the sound bounces).Good bottle of chianti classico. The Italian margarita was very lemony and bright. My friend had a drink with campari. She liked it.The mushroom soup was exquisite. Very fresh and innovative, rich and creamy, full flavored with bits of mushrooms and a great touch of blue cheese which made a wonderful contrast of sharp flavor against the dark smoothness of the soup.The baked brie appetizer had a generous mix of nuts and fresh woodland berries and a great piece of cheese. The pastry was thin and crisp and completely ruined by being drowned in caramel sauce. It wasn 't a drizzle. It was enough for sundae. It swamped the rich warm flavor of the brie the way hyper sweet toppings on a Starbucks crushes the coffee flavor. It needed a light drizzle of some sort of berry sauce instead to keep the dish light and flavorful.The small house salad is a good size. You could throw some shrimp on it for a great lunch. Delicious mix.The lamb was a generous portion with a good mix of greens and some berries to compliment the flavor. The others had duck and a shrimp and pasta dish. I didn 't try the duck but the shrimp was big, meaty and perfectly cooked.The desserts were had were the cheesecake and the bombolini, some kind of pastry balls with ganache. I didn 't like the texture of the cheesecake; it seemed lumpy. But the lavender granite was amazing! Great texture, surprising flavor. I 'd love a whole dish of just that. The ganache was intensely rich and delicious, and the prosecco whip was scrumptious.But no espresso?! Over all, a terrific dinner."

"This is a beautiful restaurant with the perfect ambiance for a romantic dinner date or a celebration with friends. If you like good food, choose Patio on Guerra! Service is a bit slow, but the food is worth the wait. For an appetizer, I tried the CrabMeat Tower. It is jumbo lump crab meat marinated in citrus juices, mixed with slices of fresh mango; stacked over chunks ofavocado with truffle oil. IT IS A MUST HAVE. For an entrée, I had the Pistachio Salmon. Pan seared pistachio andalmond crusted salmon with a ginger beurre blanc sauce. The salmon was a little dry, but still good. As a side, I had the wildrice with cranberries and almonds which was delicious! My Cocktails Review: ? BERRY HAPPY (My Score: 10) Berry Vodka, PeachSchnaps, Lemon Lime Soda, Fresh Berries It was the perfect blend of sweet and refreshing! ? METROPOLITAN (My Score:8) Rosé, Lime Juice, Cranberry Juice, Vodka It tasted surprisingly strong. I was hoping for a softer drink with a goodkick. ? CARRETA (My Score: 8) Tequila, Mineral Water, Lime This drink took my back to my college years! It's a great choiceif you're watching your calories ? PALOMA (My Score: 6) Tequila, Squirt Soda I was very disappointed with the Paloma. It isusually made with grapefruit juice. It tasted very lacking. It is probably best to stick to the cocktail specialties listed onthe menu. Overall, this place is FANTASTIC!"

"However, there were a couple of concerns. When we arrived around 8:30 pm, no one was at the front counter, and we waited about five minutes for assistance. While that isn't a long wait, there was an unsettling drawing on the counter that was visible to all entering customers. Additionally, the manager asked a server if he had cleaned his areas and the bathroom, to which he falsely replied yes. Unfortunately, the bathroom was dusty—I even drew a line on the towel dispenser to highlight the dust. The floor was dirty, the mirror hadn't been cleaned in ages, and there was hair in the sink. Overall, our visit was enjoyable, largely due to our excellent server. However, the presence of that drawing and the improper attention to cleanliness made the experience uncomfortable, especially given the current climate of gun violence. It’s concerning that someone had the time to create such a drawing and left it in a highly visible spot where many customers could see it."
