About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
COOKING WITH FIRE, SOUTH TEXAS STYLE Carriqui celebrates the South Texas tradition of drawing flavor from fire. Inspired by the flight path of our namesake bird, our menus feature regional favorites from the Rio Grande Valley, Texas coast, and the Hill Country. Nearly every dish is touched by the glowing embers of our custom-forged pits, smoker, or grill, all fueled by native wood. Along with housemade tortillas, cold margaritas, and warm hospitality, each meal is an opportunity to experience the vibrant food and spirit of our South Texas culture.

    What can I say? Carriqui made Easter Lunch a fabulous experience. My wife and I got there a bit early and was seated at the bar and was served immediately. As soon as my reservation came up, we were seated upstairs with a great view. The ambiance was perfect. The wife and I had the Easter Lunch Special and it was very tasty and love the presentation. What can I say about our waiter? Great service!!! We will be coming back!

    I’m writing to express my deep disappointment with the experience my family and I had at your restaurant today. I’ve dined at Carriqui multiple times and have always enjoyed it, which made it an easy choice for our Easter celebration. Unfortunately, what was meant to be a special family gathering turned into a frustrating and disappointing afternoon. Despite having a reservation, we waited over 50 minutes for our food with no communication or updates. When we finally spoke to a manager, we were told he would check on our order. No resolution came, and after nearly an hour of waiting, we made the decision to leave. The manager’s explanation — that the restaurant “wasn’t expecting large parties on Easter Sunday” — was honestly baffling. It’s unacceptable that a well-regarded, reservation-based restaurant would be so unprepared for one of the busiest dining days of the year. That kind of oversight speaks to a serious lapse in planning and leadership. We left without eating, disappointed and embarrassed after having invited our family to what should have been a celebratory and enjoyable meal. I expected better from Carriqui — much better — and this experience has caused me to reconsider returning.

    We had a lovely Easter brunch/lunch. The French toast and blackened fish were amazing. The margarita with Grand Monet was fantastic and hit the spot! Our waiter was wonderful - checked with us often and was patient with our group of 6 including 2 small children. I would definitely return when I’m in the area. Thank you Carriqui for a wonderful holiday brunch!!!

    Don’t sleep on the fish options, had a tremendous white fish (Tile fish - never heard of this prior) that was top notch. House ranch water with cilantro syrup is a hit as well!

    It was a beautiful spring evening, so we decided to have dinner on the patio at Carriqui. We made reservations and were immediately seated when we arrived. Our waitress, Brianca, was attentive and polite. My date had never tasted cabrito, so the manager, Alexis, brought her a sample. She ordered this dish and I had the BBQ brisket. Our dishes were well prepared and delicious! We had Flan for dessert and it was spectacular! We really enjoyed our experience at Carriqui and will continue to come back!!
