50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Dallas

“I had the best time at El Carlos Elegante.“

“We love this place. Been a loyal customer for several years now. Service is amazing. Great atmosphere!“

“Thoroughly enjoyed dinner here with my friends. Music was there but not intrusive. Staff were friendly and efficient. The food was very flavorful and everybody enjoyed their meal. I definitely ate too much of the chips and the cilantro lime crema“

“Angelo is the best, great service and great recommendation“

“Best (higher quality) Tex-Mex near SMU. New restaurant! Food was fantastic, ambience is fun and the place is clean.

Smoked brisket was super smokey and lean. Wagyu fajitas were delicious and memorable. Crispy tacos (deep fried!?!) were unique and amazing. Worth trying and returning for.

At breakfast we met Chef Ryan and he offered us the full menu. He is experienced, knowledgeable and kind. He even gave us a list of Dallas restaurant recommendations (but we returned here for dinner!).

We enjoyed no-alcohol strawberry margaritas and iced lattes from their coffee bar.

I highly recommend Los Charros and it is the closest and best place we found when visiting SMU. Would be terrific for larger parties too.

Thank you Chef Ryan.“

“my husband and myself enjoyed and early dinner today at the Dallas location. We had the best waitress named LuLu. Her service was so fast and she was so attentive. I had the tortilla soup and the bowl was huge. It was fresh and perfectly seasoned. My husband had the fajita nachos and we shared some queso and tortillas of course and it was all fantastic. Can't forget about the frozen margaritas, they were the perfect compliment to our dinner. This location treats us wonderfully everytime we come.“

“Nice patio. Expensive for average food. Dog friendly patio. My salad was $17 without protein (romaine was the only lettuce).“

“4/19/25. The general manager, Ish, is a treasure! I have never seen a manager more engaged with the customers and his staff. He seated us and took our drink order and stopped by several times to check on us. You could tell how much he is loved by all the customers greeting him with hugs. He is always impeccably dressed and his signature hair is fabulous. We were seated by the bar and I’ve never seen a more efficient group behind the bar. The bartender was making multiple drinks from the extensive drink menu with ease. His bar back was on top of it as well. We only wish we were closer (we’re north of Denton) to go more often instead of just when the Dallas Stars are playing.“

“Man this was some good eating I tried my wife’s and kids food it was all awesome the puffy tacos were the best 🌮“

“such a nice restaurant that has good food good service good prices and has been around for a while so definitely a great choice for good Mexican food that's well priced and easy to get to“

“By FAR one of the best collections of Mezcal you’ll find North of the border. Excellent service, incredible food, and only steps from Fair Park and the Music Hall. Highly recommend this gem!!“

“I have eaten the recipes at AG Texican for years! Abel comes from a family who owned other amazing restaurants in Dallas in the past. He carries on their tradition with his amazing recipes and an atmosphere that feels like home every time you come in! Abel may be considered “fried Jesus” to some but he is the guy who carries on the tradition of the first and best TexMex I’ve ever eaten! I HIGHLY recommend AG Texican!“

“Atmosphere, food and service were terrific! UnaVida serves beautiful and inventive Mexican cuisine. We were looking for VEGAN options and UnaVida had more than we’ve seen in most any Dallas restaurant. The heart cakes were delicious as was the “taco” bowl. I can’t wait to return to try the mushroom tacos and other salads that looked delicious. Drinks were great as well. Our server, Elizabeth, was very helpful and was more than accommodating to make our experience a good one.

Vegetarian options: Taco bowl, enchiladas, heart cakes, salsa, salads, guacamole, vegan queso

Dietary restrictions: Several options for vegetarians as well as vegans.“

“Great restaurant…check it out“

“Incredibly indescribably delicious. Well work the wait!“

“The Food was awesom, especially the Chicken Tortilla Soup and the Chips and Salsa ❤️“

“Delicious tacos 🌮 de pulpo 🐙“

“That was a very fun outing! I had never heard of this restaurant before, but it was a happening place! Great margaritas, of course! I got the Carne Asada y mole enchilada. The other dishes were Conchinita Pibil then enchiladas. Finished with coconut 🥥 flan! It was really delicious!! I'd do that again! Definitely going back!“

“I just wanted to express my sincere thanks for the wonderful experience my family and I had at your restaurant. From the moment we walked in, we were treated with such kindness and care. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was exceptional. Every detail made our time there special, and we’re truly grateful for your hospitality. We’re already looking forward to our next visit on Mother’s Day!“

“I highly recommended, great food, great service, very clean, from the tortilla soup, to their fresh salsa, yo my daughter’s favorite chimichanga’s. Great food for great price it’s a win win“

“My experience was amazing ! Definitely will be back and bring my family here . Food was very delicious!✨🙌🏼“

“This is where I come to get breakfast tacos about once a week or so. I can keep coming back again and again because the tacos are that good. They are reasonably priced and taste so delicious. I'm sure they have other food that is worth it, but as far as it goes for myself, the breakfast tacos are where it's at. Trust me on this one... flour tacos with bacon, beans, and cheese, and grab you some salsas to put on it and you will be in heaven.“

“Excelente servicio“

“Excelente atención sebe que ama su trabajo“

“Excellent food great concept“

“Crispy Beef Tacos Party Burritos Tasty Salsa“

“Pase al drive y Me atendió la señorita Jacqueline muy amable y el servicio muy bueno,“

“I had a great customer service, miss Aimee! Was be able to help me and she was super nice, the food was faster, and the restaurant is super clean… I definitely recommend it.???“

“Muchacho in Preston Center strikes the right balance between refined and relaxed. The décor feels thoughtfully curated—warm leather, dark wood, and just enough rustic detail to make it inviting without being overdone. My favorite spot is the balcony, which adds an airy, open feel to the experience.

The menu has plenty of heavy-hitters, but I keep coming back to something simple: the house salad with butter lettuce and grilled shrimp. It’s clean, fresh, and surprisingly memorable—the kind of dish that shows off the kitchen’s restraint as much as its skill.“

“The food here is always top notch! The salsa has good flavor while not being too hot. The chips are light and crisp. The tortillas are on point. The grilled onions and peppers are at the perfect level of doneness. The bean soup I add avacado to. It’s amazing. The verde sauce and sour cream sauce on the enchiladas are so good I get both. And the acoustic panels on the ceiling are essential in a brick and concrete space that is as busy as Ebar always is. Makes for a pleasant environment. 🤌“

“Awesome service great employees. Sergio was so amazing and helpful“

“Our company always orders from here and it's always exceptional! Julieth always takes care of our online orders, she is the best and always very helpfull! she already knows me since i pick up from there very often and always has my order ready to hand out to me. 100% recomend this location!“

“CHARGEEEEEEEE ITTTTTTTTTT“

“I had such a great experience here on Saturday! The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the service was wonderful and attentive. Chef Brandi is incredible—her dishes are full of flavor and creativity, I'm from Peru, so I loved the variety in the menu and love seeing some familiar dishes. She truly took great care of us. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for both amazing food and a welcoming experience!“

“I have previously posted 5 stars but when I got to the important meeting, they forgot to put the tortillas. For a big order over $150 dollars I called to let them know and they took over 30 minutes on a 10 minute distance. 😣 They just have to make sure to double check the orders
other than that food was good.“

“Had a great date lunch with my husband today at this Mi Cocina location. There was no wait and we were seated in a great booth. Jose, our waiter, was amazing and made sure our drinks were flowing and chips never empty. We will definitely be back for a date lunch away from our tiny human!“
