SUPERIOR GRILL REVIEWS
A favorite place to eat with our family anytime we are in the area. Food is always amazing and service is top notch. Highly recommend!
We went here during some of the mardi gras parades and even for being very busy the food was excellent and the service was really great. We waited less than 20 minutes. I would definitely go back here again. We also got a strawberry margarita to go which was delicious!
Great place to unwind and have some Delicious Mexican food. Our server, Thomas was awesome. Definitely a place to try out.

JOHNNY SÁNCHEZ REVIEWS
Wow! This place will not disappoint you. My husband and I are huge Master Chefs fans and we could not wait to come here. The margaritas were fantastic and freshly made. The adobo wings were the most delicious we’ve ever had. I had the crispy shrimp tacos and my husband had the chicken fajitas. It truly is the most delicious food we’ve ever tasted. The atmosphere is comfortable and classy. The service is outstanding. It is very reasonably priced too. Just go here and eat everything!
Was really excited to come eat here, since I'm a fan of Aarón Sánchez, and it did not disappoint. The staff were wonderful, really friendly, and the food was great. I had three of the tacos, the albondigas, pescado, and shrimp, plus a side of the fries, and it was all really delicious! My friends had the burger and the beet salad, and both enjoyed their food as well. Would definitely recommend coming here.
Tried this place after watching master chef. The food was delicious. I went for happy hour & got chips & salsa & 1 of each taco. The cauliflower taco was AMAZING! I sat at the bar. The house margarita was really good & my bartender was really nice & attentive.

I really adore the ambience and food at The Velvet Cactus!. They set the bar high! The outdoor seating is amazing! The outdoor lighting and water features set the stage for a relaxing meal, and there are misters to ensure that hot weather is not an impediment. the service and food quality do not disappoint. I will definitely be returning.
Attentive waitress! The salsa was great. The pico was fresh. Everything was tasty and came out fairly quickly, even though it was a busy night!
Great place to eat and enjoy with the whole family. The decor person definitely needs a raid bc when the seasons change so do their atmosphere. Love it.
