18 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Waco

“This place is awesome 😎 highly recommend!“

“The queso is the bomb! Good eats for sure!!“

“Really good! Jesus was great! Friendly, helpful, polite and attentive. He recommended the Tacos Al Carbon which I hadn’t noticed, with both varieties (beef and chicken) and the salsa verde which was awesome! He did a great job (Thanks Jesus). The food was great as was the service! Atmosphere is a bit older but the staff keeps the place clean from what I can tell. Overall I would definitely go back!“

“Delicious food! Love the salsa! We will be back soon!“

“Food and people are always lovely! Been a regular for quite some time. The Crunchy Beef tacos and enchiladas are my absolute go to here. Love the atmosphere too, you guys knocked it out of the park on this one. Probably my favorite cheap mexican restaurant in Waco!“

“Max was our server tonight and he was excellent! It was super busy and sooo loud for some reason, but he was patient, kind, and got everything out perfectly! Austin was also very helpful! Great food and service all around!“

“The brisket tacos are Great !! And have to have a Margarita🥰“

“I’m giving them 5 stars, not only for the food and service but because of the way we were treated and taken care of after an accident of spilling Nashville Hot sauce on my wife and me. Our shirts were covered in some areas and it was not a good way to end a great afternoon with friends. The manager immediately came out and took care of the bill and asked me to take the shirts to the cleaners and bring her the bill. I had them cleaned and brought them the bill and no questions asked, the reimbursed me for the total. Accidents happen but it’s the best when management is accountable and they take care of you. We highly recommend Chilis and we will definitely be back for the great food, service and management.“

“Today was my first time at Molly's and I loved it, for two things. The young gentleman, Joshua, was so friendly and welcoming. I will gladly say he is one of the best servers I have had in a very long time. Second, I ordered Chicken Fajita Nachos and they were so good!! I will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely love the food and the prices brings back memories of panchos �“

“Ate here for the first time tonight and live a mile away but never tried it . The service was outstanding our waiter Lorenzo was attentive and personable and never left a drink half empty and had great recommendations on food. We had the fajitas with chicken, steak, bacon wrapped shrimp, bbq ribs. As well as queso con carne and an order of carnitas . Don’t sleep on getting the carnitas . Dang. The Gm is super friendly as well and I let him know we were very impressed with the service as well as quality of food . If you are in the Waco area come check this place out you won’t leave disappointed.“

“The food was good, but it was Mary’s customer service was five stars. It was a half hour before close, but she was upbeat and pleasant. She was eager offer suggestions and answer our questions. I had never been to Freebirds before, but I’ll go back just because of Mary.“

“The best grilled chicken in Waco at a ridiculously affordable price! You really can't go wrong with the Combo($18) which feeds two to three people.PRO TIP: order a Combo, all green sauce, no reds, then drive up the street(25th is a one way for those who don't know) to La Nueva Michoacana paleteria and buy a large horchata with no ice **chef's kiss**“
