Andre was very helpful, professional, and provided amazing service! I enjoyed the vibes, drinks and atmosphere. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for good vibe with strong drinks in the Deep Ellum area. I flew in town to spend the day with a really good friend and will be back to visit when i return!!

Heard from another chef to try this place out. Great authentic taste. Started off with the Queso Fundido; portions are small but came with 5 mini flour tortillas and had shrimp and chorizo, very delicious. Tacos are a la carte, which I’ve always loved because you can order as you want and get variety! Started with the Trompo Al Pastor and Lengua Tacos; both were super delicious and of course if you’re a texture eater you probably won’t like the lengua. Finished up with Carne Asada, Pulpo, and Carnitas. I love octopus so I think my favorite was definitely the Pulpo with leek, was really surprised with the filling. Also grabbed a margarita and ranch water. Margarita was very fresh. Bartender was very attentive and helpful with suggestions! Some people want to complain about the price, but the quality of the food and the way it’s prepared really outweighs that argument. Will definitely be back!

Sit at the bar, have a great conversation with a wonderful bartender, enjoy some awesome tacos and a killer margarita. If that is your definition of a good time then . . . This is the place. I highly recommend the duck tacos. Not fatty or chewy just awesome but my favorite was the al Pastor taco with the pineapple. I was not sure about it but the super friendly bar tender recommended it and I am glad he did. It was flavorful, spicey, sweet and just awesome!

We stopped here on a food tour. The al pastor tacos we had were so good! The alley is a nice break from the heat. You can tell they take pride in their food. It was some of the best corn tortillas I've ever had, even internationally.

Great vibe, very nice place in Deep Elum!

What an amazing bar experience. I cannot express how considerate they are here with the service. Norell is quite literally the best bartender I have ever had in my life. I was a Marine and I have gone to bars all over the world and not a single place has offered service that matches this man, Norell. Low price drinks with an amazing vibe. I HIGHLY recommend this place if you are in Deep Ellum. It isn’t club vibes, but they offer amazing chill vibes for a good night out. If you end up having Norell as your bartender, consider yourself blessed. This man is breaking the stigma of the “rude bartender” feeling you get a lot of times in bars (ESPECIALLY in Deep Ellum). Come to this place if you don’t want the club vibes of every other bar here in Deep Ellum!!!

The moment I walked in, I immediately felt the vibe. The best part was that I got access to the Wi-Fi right away, which I was looking for. The bartender was friendly, and I really enjoyed the overall atmosphere.

We walked for a while trying to find a chill place for drinks with a nice ambiance and no cover charge. I’m so glad we found this place! We had an amazing time and made lots of friends.

Nate Reed

Bar staff were great, drinks were excellent and loved the 80s music. Totally fit the vibe.

Krzysztof Kuźnik

Spirit of Dallas. Very friendly bartenders and exvlent drinks. And don't get me started on music...

Arden Debelle

Deep Ellum bar and music venue. Casual, with a laid back and old school vibe (think late 80's hole in the wall) music was hoppin and drinks were just fine, not overly crowded, with a great nix of people. Friendly staff and service. Come fir the live show, stay for the vibe, if u rock n roll

This place can get busy on weekends but it's a cool place to pop in on a weekday after work for a nice cocktail. The bar service is great and I like getting a Last Word here. There is booth seating inside and outdoor seating outside in the back with a smoking section. Facilities include gender-neutral restrooms as well.

This was a great accidental find! We found it pretty early in the day so there were very few people. But it was exactly what we needed after a day of travel. The bartender was very welcoming and the atmosphere was relaxed. Next time we visit, we’ll try the patio.

I've been here twice, and each time the bartender greeted me. Amazing! They actually make you feel welcome. The Twilight drink is delicious. I'd like to check out the jazz music, but it's a late start... I'll have to work in a nap someday to make it happen. 🎶

Small bar with a New Orleans flair. They televise all the NO Saints games and have a decent selection of beers and liquors, including many local drafts. Karaoke and trivia is also hosted here. Highly reccomend if this is your vibe.

Kara Widdison

So much fun! The live music is great and the drinks were just what we needed. As a side note - anyone just trying to enjoy the ambiance, you can feel safe here. The bartenders take care of you, truly look after you, and if there’s unwanted attention - that sh*t gets smashed in minutes. Seriously - you are taken care of here.

This bar is just cool. The courtyard is beautiful. The red booths are charming. The live bands they book are awesome. I had a great experience with the bartender recommending me different spirits based on what I liked. Really pumped to see them introduce no cover comedy shows. Will have to step in on a Thursday to check it out. Glad to have live music back!

The first time we ate here we don’t love it and they don’t have the pastor taco 😞 so we want to go again and the second time was amazing so hopefully always be like the second and the first only was a bad day, by the other side they need more friendly servers both times they were like really unfriendly. The “pulpo al pastor” taco is amazing I repeat amazing! If you’re on deep ellum I recommend this spot.

For sure, the tacos bop. They're nom-a-riffic, and sitting up at the bar is a great way to go here. Friendly service. Tasty tacos. And those tacos? Really good. One might say they're worthy of being on Netflix's Taco Chronicles good, because, well, they were. And that one taco? The octopus carnitas taco? It's hella tasty. And that's just it. Maybe the tasty tacos went to their head a bit? Maybe it was Netflix. There's a weird vibe here. Like they need to prove that they're cool and hip and whatever is the new slang. Eating, brother. Whatevs. Sure, they were on Taco Chronicles. Know what? They'll put it on the TV to show you. It's like they need to prove they're so cool and saw that one indie band in a speakeasy basement bar in Fort Greene before they sold out and blew up huge. But. Maybe just concentrate on tasty tacos instead? 'Cause they have tasty tacos. They also have a DJ stand. You know, for tacos.

The back patio is nice, nice place to listen to live music and unwind.

Hey. I think I remember hanging at this place MANY years back when I was a teen into my 20's, but my mind dont work too well nowadays. Plus I haven't hung out in Deep Ellum for many other years, especially since it has all went to hell now. Anyways, if this ain't the place I remember, and it is new, I still had FUN! Went to karaoke Thursday night, and enjoyed it. I don't drink anymore, but I still wasn't nervous. The other singers were fine, and I sung along and danced with the crowd. Free ice cold water in a cooler, that was good. Enjoy seating in the back, women's restroom was nice and clean. Outside patio. As with many places, there are the barflies who dont like new faces, especially women but I love my haters. Hate me because I'm beautiful, please! Just don't touch. Had to take away one star because the AC is a joke and it was baking inside. Plus there was an older guy at the bar who reeked like old sweat socks. I know we hot here in the summer so y'all gotta upgrade those few lil baby boom box size ac vents in the ceilings. Place is not that huge and it wasn't that crowded to be so hot. Other than that, it was a chill, fun spot and I will definitely be returning, despite the heat.

Twilite Lounge offers a decent selection of beers and liquors, making it a suitable spot for those seeking a relaxed drink. The atmosphere exudes a nice vibe, providing a comfortable setting for patrons. The venue is worth considering for a casual visit, especially if you appreciate a variety of drinks and a laid-back ambiance. Nice for those looking for a low-key evening with a diverse selection of beverages.

Erin Auchterlonie

Lovely bartender here - she was super helpful for a lost little traveller 😋 but seriously, nice and helpful in choosing a beer from an unfamiliar selection offering testers to help me choose. I went with the Texas Lager and highly recommend it for the tourists who want a lighter beer. Great atmosphere and happy people for an early Friday hour

Kevin Castillo

Went and saw a couple of friends perform there was really packed but great location, great atmosphere, would definitely recommend to go listen to live music and get a drink.

My party of 3 came in early on a Saturday, service and food was just okay, I was expecting better flavor for the hype and upscale price. I may come back to try their Sunday brunch, maybe that will be a better option.

This Deep Ellum taco bar has gotten a fair share of very positive press over the years, and the food here is quite good. The tacos are fresh and inventive, delivered on excellent handmade tortillas. Service here was a little off on my visit, however. It seems like servers are matching the quality of service more to the intentionally casual “street taco bar” atmosphere than the high menu prices dictate. That said, if you are in the area and don’t mind paying the elevated prices for great tacos and beer in a dive bar space, it’s a good option.

This place has good drinks and some good food but it is DEFINITELY OVERPRICED in my opinion for tacos and appetizers. The portions are tiny for what they charge you. You can definitively find cheaper and better tasting Mexican food/tacos at other places in Dallas. I was disappointed since I liked their first location but this second location didn’t quite cut it out for me. The seating is limited at the bar unless u sit at one of the outdoor tables (hopefully u have good weather) The sope appetizer were 4 literally bite size sopes for $19?!! That’s a total rip off!!! We paid $95 after taxes for two ppl, that’s ridiculous for Mexican food and it’s not even fine dining. Would not come back.

The guys (see photo) behind the counter with the red nails was extremely rude and racist. I ordered 2 tacos from Rusbelis (young lady at the register) and I also asked for sodas. She pointed to the right of me to let me know where the sodas were located. She spoke very limited English but okayed me to get the 2 sodas. As I began to walk towards her to finish checking out, I lifted the two drinks up so that she could see them and she nodded. The guys (see photo) at the bar looked at me, frowned, and rudely asked what I was doing. I explained that the lady who took my ordered okayed me to get the two sodas. Rusbelis was watching the entire interaction as I was walking towards her. He stated that she couldn't have done that because she didn't speak English. She informed him in Spanish that she told me it was okay. In English she even said, it's okay. Very oddly, the guy in the photo walked down a little further, stood in front of me after I paid for my order, he snapped a photo of me with his phone. Then he started throwing his fingers and speaking to Rusbelis in Spanish. I started videoing him afterwards. I used Google translator to speak to Rusbelis and she stated that she didn't know why he was acting like that and she apologized but, that's not good enough for me. The guy is has a nasty attitude, disrespectful, and kept frowning his face up at me for no apparent reason. I would NEVER recommend this establishment. I would give you all 0 Stars if it was an option.

The owner was so rude and treated us with such disrespect, no information upon entering or anything. He approached us and rudely said buy a drink or get out. We had not all sat down and were td to get out in such a rude manner. Our fist and last time there. SUCH A BAD EXPERIENCE
