    First time going to Quemar since “Chef Jeff” took over the kitchen AND I was not disappointed. The menu has been modified. Yes, the innovative tacos and burritos are still there, but there has been an addition of salad options, ceviche and multiple steak choices with your choice of style. My Ribeye was served with Chimmichuiri. For the style, service, value and atmosphere, it’s a great place for a date or romantic evening with my wife.

    Mary our server was fantastic. she was great in helping us to customize drinks. The street tacos could use more cilantro, and queso, as well as some shredded lettuce and pico de gallo. I would also recommend some blended tequila and mezcal drinks that are in the lower price range. it is a good flavor blend. Overall very good, and I will come again!

    Everything on the menu is 10/10. The ceviche, loaded carne asada guac, smash burger, and bone in ribeye were all amazing, must get the tres leches cake makes the whole meal. Will be back in the future!

    This was my second time at this restaurant and it did not fail! I came in the other day with somebody who had never been before and they enjoyed it so much that we've decided to make Quemar's our special spot and return monthly for date night. Gentle men out there if you see this do yourselves a favor and take your special lady here!

Our server, Toni, was deightful! Oh, and the churros along with the caramel gelato were the perfect ending to our meal!

    The food was impeccable. We enjoyed every bite. We ordered for apps the guacamole, oysters, mushrooms, and ceviche. Main plates we had various steaks and then dessert the tres leches cake and chocolate crème brûlée. Everything was soooo good. They were really busy (Saturday night) so kind of took awhile for things to come out but it was perfect and gave our group time to catch up and socialize. We didn’t feel rushed which can happen weekend nights at restaurants. We had the mezclaritas which were so delicious. I’m not a big mezcal fan usually but the combinations in it made for a tasty cocktail. Only got pictures of my steak because we scarfed down everything too fast.
