"Great first impression. Visited Red Ox on Thurs night. Super sweet place! The decor and all small details are really nice. It has a cool, funky happy vibe. The chips had to start queso. Loved the fresh tomatoes and paprika in the Queso. It was a bit casual for my taste, but the taste was good. I would have preferred the chips to be warm, but not biggie. I had the beef tacos al carbon. The fajita beef was excellent! Super delicate and perfectly cooked. Not greasy or greasy. Flavor was excellent, although I discovered a hint of liquid smoke, for which I was not interested. Hubby had the chicken enchiladas Verdes he said was great. The rice was quite normal, but good. The fried beans were good at home. The tortillas were homemade too. I saw the chap served and it looked good. It was a happy hour, so we had $4.50 margaritas. The bartender was friendly- he was also our server. The service was good. The menu is quite small. They don't seem to have beef or cheese enchiladas, only chickens and spinach. I was hoping for cheese enchiladas and maybe Tamales. Our only slight complaint was quite loud dance music. Both the loudness and the style of the music were somewhat different from our culinary experience. And it looked like there was a set to have a DJ there that was surprising as the place is quite small. There was only one other table when we were there. I really hope this place starts and expands its menu. I'll be back to try the chap that looked so good."
