- FForrestDallas - Fort Worth •2 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 1, 2024We consistently have a great experience at Layered. The food and coffee are always delicious, the staff are always friendly, and it’s a nice place to dine with the family. Our table was ready early and they were able to accommodate our large group of 10.More infoLayeredPrice: Moderate• Breakfast• McKinney•4.7
- OTOpenTable DinerSan Antonio •2 reviews4.0Dined on Apr 2, 2024We’ve been here twice and found it depends on the visit. The restaurant was busier this time - about 1/3 full and getting busier. We had 8 people, (4 pm Tuesday), (3 people at noon the first time), so the second time we actually went in a couple days before to check with the person in charge of seating and he said he would have a place ready and wrote our details down. We got there and they were not ready for us at all. We waited for a setup, and he then put us together in a corner against a wall and counter on 2 sides, though 2/3 the restaurant was empty. We couldn’t get out, they couldn’t get around, and they were not expecting us it seemed. The place was too noisy to hear except for the person right next to us. The food was seasoned really well, but the steak for the fajitas was dry. The tacos on our first visit were outstanding. It is very new still, and it seems they are working out some things.More infoCantina Lime - AnnaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Anna•4.5

A couple of restaurants have entire burger menus.
