9 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Fairfax

“This place is kind of small hole in the wall. Seats about 14 or so outside and not many more people inside. Nice menu that's not too large or too small. Some Tex-Mex menus have way too many choices. The starter tortilla chips and salsa were top notch. Service all around was excellent. I had the Chicken Chimichanga and it was one of the best I've ever had. It came with rice and refried beans as well as pico, sour cream, guacamole, and lettuce. Everything was delicious, cooked perfectly, and reasonably priced. The presentation was great as well Can't wait to come back.“

“Went tonight. Am a Texan who used to go to the original back in the early 1990s on Barton Springs. I was impressed. Got the combo fajitas, where were very good especially for the price. A lot of meat (I asked for only meat and cheese). Service was excellent, inside was very nice. I had low expectations as the one by me in Dallas sucked (and closed), but this was solid. Peer to Guapo's which I like, but had more meat for about the same price. Expect I will go back. Thanks.“

“We found this place by accident recently and we have been back twice. It’s a great find. The food is excellent , I love the chips and dips, the barbecue options are good, servings are generous, everything is delicious.

We have a 5 and 7 yr old and they enjoy the food and the shuffleboard! The shuffleboard is definitely one of the main reasons we love it, waiting for food with kids this age can be a pain but this is a great way to make an event of lunch, we are a no screen family so for us this place is a great option!

We like the booth seating, the round tables are small so nothing fits on them once food arrives and they give the kids waters in glass not plastic so that can be a bit nerve wracking so if you’re a party of more than 4 try to avoid the round tables!“

“Great food, don’t like that I cannot see my order at checkout and am just told what i owe. I like to see the itemization.“

“The staff here are incredibly kind and welcoming, which really made the experience pleasant. The food menu looks amazing and everything coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. The salteñas were great and definitely something I would order again.

The only thing that wasn’t for me were the alfajor cookies. They were very dense and had a bit too much caramel for my taste. Others may love them if you’re a big dulce de leche fan (which I am), but they were just a little heavy for me.

Overall though, the friendly staff and great salteñas made it worth the visit.“

“Baja Fresh in Fairfax never lets me down.i love going here for the made to order burritos. Everything is fresh. Most recent trip this week, I was nearby and just wanted some of their salsa to bring home. As always it was amazing. Keep up the good work BF Fairfax!“

Wait was about 10 minutes during busy rush.

Employee was very friendly when asking my name for the order. I appreciated the kindness and friendly service!“
