Restaurants near El Paso Zoo

My recent visit to Anson11 in El Paso was a mixed experience. I ordered the seafood medley linguine, which was generously portioned and included salmon, mussels, scallops, and shrimp in a creamy pesto sauce. My wife had the blackened Chilean sea bass, which was perfectly cooked and accompanied by fingerling potatoes and a shiitake brown butter broth, making it the highlight of the meal. However, the service left room for improvement. I had ordered Riesling but was served Pinot Grigio instead. While this was a small mistake, it detracted from the otherwise upscale experience. Despite this, the staff was courteous and the ambiance—especially the outdoor seating—added to the meal’s charm. Anson11 has potential, but attention to detail in service could elevate it further.

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at Cafe Central and it was wonderful. Food and wine were great, service was outstanding and they gave us a card and a special desert on the house for our anniversary. Overall, a great experience. The only drawback was that the live music (piano) was a bit too loud.

Good food with excellent customer service. Very accommodating staff.

Diana is the best waitress and drinks are always on point.

What a gorgeous setting. The service was superb: the hostess was very knowledgeable about how to take the best photo of us and show off the Tiffany ceiling. Juan, our server, was savvy on the menu and well-versed in the wine. We had the Caesar salad and the bison short ribs -- well presented and prepared
