One of my favorite restaurants in Kingston. They have the best Tex-Mex food in the area. Great service and friendly staff. I highly recommend the Steak Fajita’s and Churros!

The experience at Armadillo Bar was positive overall. The food was pretty good, the ambiance was nice, and the servers were professional. A nice touch was the complimentary chips and dips provided. We enjoyed the two steak burrito bowls, finding the serving size decent. My girlfriend particularly liked her drink. The total cost came to $100 for two. The only significant drawback was that parking is hard to find during weekend nights.

This is a really great restaurant! The people are so friendly extremely attentive and the food is fantastic.
The restaurant is about a 2 minute walk from the Abeel Street Bridge which has phenomenal views of downtown gentrified Kingston. Guadalupe is the owner come say hi!

Small menu but very good. My best compliment to this restaurant is their margaritas. They are the most genuine margaritas you will find, not some 20 ounce full of fillers and sour mix crap. The margaritas alone are why I still trek up to Armadillos. Their use of radishes in the food is also refreshing and delicious

My party of 8 dined on the outdoor terrace tonight, and let me say, the incredibly delicious food was so worth sweating in the 93 degree heatwave. The yucca appetizer was perfectly prepared and so tasty; the guacamole was fresh and tangy; the barbacoa beef was out of this world. We also loved the shrimp jalapeño poppers, street corn, and quesadillas. Every bite was so flavorful— some of the best food I’ve had in the area, and definitely the best authentic Mexican food I’ve ever had. Also, Guadalupe, one half of the husband and wife who own and run Armadillo, was so incredibly kind, checking regularly to make sure we were okay in the heat. This is a family-owned and run business, and one of her sons was our waiter, and he easily took care of our large party with a friendly smile, keeping our water bottles filled and making sure we had everything we needed. It’s a rare thing to find a family-owned restaurant that has so much love and passion for the delicious food they prepare, and their hospitality made us feel as if we were old friends. I can’t say enough about how much we all enjoyed our experience at Armadillo, and I can’t wait to be back in the area to eat there again!

I don’t usually write reviews but I was so impressed by this restaurant that I felt obliged to let other people know what they were missing. From our cocktails to dessert everything was top notch … fresh, delicious, and presented beautifully. The margaritas, both Frozen and straight up we’re a perfect balance of lime and sweetness with a choice of different salted, sweet or spicy rim flavors. You can also get a flight of three different flavored margaritas including coconut, raspberry, and mango. All were delightful but coconut was the favorite. Our main course of fish tacos and portbella/spinach enchilada was fresh, colorful and delicious served with rice and beans. There are plenty of vegetarian options. The portions are plentiful and the prices are very reasonable. And I can’t say enough about the friendly service and staff…. all super friendly and cheery….even the owner Guadalupe came to stop at our table and welcome us to her restaurant with a free dessert of creamy, light, melt in your mouth Key lime pie….save room….YUM! They even welcomed my dog, Goldilocks. What a wonderful find! I will definitely go back there again as often as I can. I had such a lovely evening and even had a conversation with the friendly people at the next table who were regulars. I left with a full belly, a smile on my face and a hug from Guadalupe.

Welcoming atmosphere, happy hour, appetizers, food & drinks. Recommend coconut margaritas for a sweet, slightly rich treat to share.

This restaurant was a recommendation and we were very pleased. The food was excellent and the staff were very attentive and friendly. They went above and beyond to ensure our meal was exactly how we ordered and even provided us with a dessert to sample. We enjoyed eating outside and the entire experience made our trip to Kingston a special day out.

Armadillo made our Christmas Eve dinner so special. Great service and food. Loved the coconut margaritas and the off menu corn tamale appetizer! Dinner was grilled tuna steak, fresh and cooked to perfection! We’ll be back
