October 16, 1909-For the first time in their country’s history, American President William H. Taft and Mexican President Porfirio Díaz met for a summit in the El Paso-Juarez border; the land commonly known as El Chamizal. Flags were lowered and the borderland remained neutral territory.
A traditional, conservative luncheon was hosted by President Taft at the El Paso Chamber of Commerce followed by an opulent dinner served and presented by President Díaz in the Old Federal Customs building in Juarez. Private discussions were had and agreements were made.

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.

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

This is one of the best restaurants I’ve been to, and I travel around the country frequently (definitely in my top 2). It’s my go to for clients, staff meetings, and on this particular occasion, a date. This was her first time here and the food, ambiance, and service did not disappoint. Our waitress was exceptional and very well versed on the varied dishes, appetizers, and their drinks, and offered some great choices for the main course. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something different here in the area. 5 stars ⭐️ all the way.
