Time flies when you are having fun and that can’t be more true when owning a restaurant. A new Mexican food restaurant opened just last September and we finally made our way over to check out Villa Del Mar. Located at 326 Industrial Drive E, Sulphur Springs, and open Sunday - Thursday from 11 am - 10 pm, and Friday - Saturday from 11 am - 11 pm. On special event nights they are open later. Of course, you can hop in for happy hour from 2-6 pm during the week and grab a drink.
Diego and I chatted for a bit before the evening rush to find out what the best dishes are and when the musical talent will be arriving next. If you have not been inside the building in a while, there is a raised platform towards the front that allows for bands to come and perform. This Saturday is when they will next have a live band, performing from 8 pm - 12 am. And then a mariachi band will play on Saturday, February 14. This Saturday, come and see Pilotos Del Triangulo, no cover fee, order some food and drinks and enjoy the music.
Villa Del Mar is not your typical Tex-Mex, while they do have some crowd favorites on the menu their focus is more seafood, with that great Mexican flavor. Think Coastal Mexico, with a variety of seafood choices to fill your plate and your tummy. By far the favorite dish at the restaurant is their seafood tostadas. Three fried corn tortillas, topped with a variety of items including some seafood favorites. The other crowd favorite is molcajete, and their seafood option is the most selected one. A bowl filled with octopus, shrimp, a delicious sauce and so much flavor.
Of course I should have asked about the favorites before we ordered but what we ordered was just as delicious. Shrimp nachos, chicken enchiladas, full shrimp dish and a brisket dish that had a great kick. If spice isn’t your thing, be sure to ask if you can have your dish a little bit milder, even my spice loving group, was looking for their water glass.
If water is not your beverage of choice, Villa Del Mar offers a full bar with plenty of beers on tap or in the bottle. Customize your drink with specialty tequila or grab one to sip on during your meal. Or ask for some classic mixed drinks such as a Paloma or house made Margarita. You will not be disappointed with your choice.
We hope that you will stop in and visit Villa Del Mar soon and discover Mexican food from the ocean is just as delicious as that from Texas. No matter if you are there for just a meal or to enjoy the band, you won’t go wrong with a visit.
