Chris FMay 19, 2017$5 margaritas on Wednesdays! The sampler appetizer plate is big enough to share with four people. Warm and friendly staff made us feel like regulars on our first visit.
The tacos are great, especially with the chinichurri. Also the ceviche is good and big enough to be a meal for one if you aren't that hungry
Abby WassellJuly 4, 2012The jalapeño poppers are an excellent appetizer! Margaritas are only $3.50 for happy hour 5-7. Chicken Itza is fabulous!
Jennifer ChaoSeptember 21, 2017I love their world famous frozen margarita! One of the best place to get Tex-Mex in Dallas.
A family Dallas staple! This is great Mexican food for a low-key, fun friends & family night.
Christopher SilveyMarch 3, 2013The chicken flautas were okay. They only came with two but they were cut in half so you really didn't get a whole lot of food. The dipping sauce was pretty good!! The hot sauce was CRAZY HOT! Beware!!
Dfw DeanSeptember 13, 2019Amazing salsa: but this place is nothing more than your grandparents’ greasy spooner TexMex place.Nachos with chicken was average: nothing else from the lunch menu appealed to me.
Jennifer E.January 27, 2012Get the Desperado tacos on Thursday nights--one chicken, one beef, made with extra cheese!!
Richard TerryFebruary 18, 2012Try the Desperado Tacos. Reputed to be some of the Best in Dallas. The chicken is great.

Navjot SinghNovember 23, 2016Tried the lunch tacos, were really dry and tasteless. The place inside was dark and gloomy as the ceilings are really low. Would be 5/10 for me
While you can get the Desperado Tacos for less than six bucks after 5PM on Thursdays, you can get a half order anytime for five bucks.
AnnaAugust 12, 2014Don't order take out unless you want them to forget part of your order and then make it hard on you to get your money back!
Chefs FeedSeptember 24, 2015Jim Severson, chef of Sevy's Grill, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Desperados tacos. Read more
Jose Diaz de Leon Jr Farmers InsuranceMarch 22, 2012Don't eat here!!! it was pathetic. I've seen more food on an apitizer. I had the tacos al carbon and all it had two tiny lily tacos and that
Albert GriffinNovember 15, 2019Not sure. I ordered the Desperado tacos. I’m not a fan. Served on crispy flour tortillas.
