    Menudo take out

    Great menudo! You can order take out or dine in! I Inhaled the menudo! They make homemade tortillas. Cash only!!!!

    As you roll down Hawn Freeway (Hwy 175) by Rochester Park, you'll think, "What a wonderful place to dump a body." Exit at Lake June (west), go about a block, and hang a right down into a crappy lane filled with garages and body shops. The restaurant is a cinder block building (a former auto shop) with a rollup garage door on one end of the dining room. Sit down (picnic table seating) and talk with one of the personable waitresses because there aren't any menus. You want their signature roasted lamb tacos ($2) and a bowl of the terrific white bean soup ($6). The soup is muy especial because it has chunks of lamb in it and the beans were cooked while collecting drippings from the lamb as it was roasted at the wood fire. You can order individual tacos. Or, get meat by the pound brought out in a covered chafing dish. Either way, you get all the usual accompaniments (chopped onions & cilantro, limes, red & green sauces). BYOB, but take along some go-cups, because they don't like having beer bottles, etc out on their tables. Decorum, decorum. IMPORTANT: 6 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday only

    This place is clean, which is very important for me. Barbacoa Lamb is delicious. Took a pound "to go"-this is how good was it. Menudo is good, ingredients were fresh. Open kitchen. Was really impressed how polite and friendly staff was. Will definitely go back.

    Si duda la mejor Barbacoa de DFW, en verdad me sentí como estuviera en el Borrego Viudo!!!!!

    This is the real thing, The Barbacoa de Borrego and the consome!!! are a hidden GEM!!! it is same flavor as the one I used to ate in Hildalgo Mexico. The place is to take out, they give you salsa, tortillas, onion... everything you need to eat it at home, you will enjoy it.!!! The have some tables as well if you want to eat it right there but it won't be the nicest place, their customers are constructions are landscapers, so I don't know if it's the kind if place that you will take your family.

    We arrived at 1pm on a Saturday we had to call before making the 30 mile trip to make sure that they were still serving barbacoa, on a previous occasion we came all the way to find out that they were out but it was on Sunday which is their busiest day, as another reviewer stated "early bird gets the worm". Although the outside of the place isn't inviting it's the classic whole in the wall place that will pleasantly surprise you. There can not be good barbacoa if you don't have a great conzome "broth" to pair it with, the conzome has to always be served very hot in temperature make sure to request for that when ordering. We started with a couple of handmade gorditas, bean and cheese and chicharron they were delicious specially with green salsa on them. Even though they were moderately busy as we arrived the service was prompt and supper courteous by Gaby she was always making sure that we were doing great. The meat is served on a chaffing dish that keeps it warm but also very moist the red salsa is very good for tacos and you get plenty of toppings. The place is clean but a little hot inside on semi hot day. We loved this joint and we will continue to come back again and again. As a side note they do now accept credit cards.

    Recently moved to Frisco, TX from Los Angeles,CA. Been here for almost two months now and I've on the search for some good street tacos, like the ones they have all over Los Angeles. No luck yet. Today I woke up with a craving for consome and tacos de barbacoa. Went on line and found this place with a pretty decent score, but 45 min away. I thought..why not?! Let's give it a shot! Well, it was worth every minute of it!! This is by far, the best Mexican meal I've had in the Dallas area! Consome was very tasty, the tortillas hechas a mano and the barbacoa was excellent! NOTE: Menu prices listed on Yelp are not updated Their prices are higher than those on advertised menu. Small consome is $9, Large consome $15. Menudo is $18 for large Menudo (I think it's way too high for menudo), In Los Angeles, a bowl of consome is between $1.50 -$3.00 at the most. The service was great, the food was excellent, and the owner honored the advertised price for my meal. Bring cash! No debit or credit. I highly recommend it!!!

    Menudo, just like at home! Fresh and hot! They use real Chile and not chili powder. They give you plenty fresh made tortillas! It's the spot

Our cocktails were all good - and the appetizers were very good. We had the crispy pork belly and the tostaditas with barbacoa. The crispy pork belly was especially delicious and I would order as my own dinner in the future. It comes with onions and sauces and corn tortillas and it's to die for - so crispy and flavorful. We ordered the Bistec enchiladas and they were good but not as good as the appetizers. They give you a variety of sauces when you're seated that you keep throughout the meal - from mild to spicy but I would say the "spicy" is on the mild side. Still good and flavorful but not unapproachable for most ppl. We had the Campechana dessert and it was a little strange. It was basically a vanilla Icecream cake with a crispy waffle cone like layering that was really hard to break until it sat a while. It was oddly addicting but also not that good? I can't explain it. We went to the cigar lounge area after dinner and had Mexican espresso martinis and watched football before heading home. There was little smoke smell but very minimal until it got later. Around 8:30 (on a Saturday night) ppl started smoking cigars and they opened the side windows and being 90degrees right now - it became less enjoyable so we decided to end the night. In the fall that room would probably be quite lovely with the windows open. They have comfortable seating and fire pits. Really more of a 4.5 out of 5.

I leave in another eight days to head back home, but I will definitely be making one more stop here before I leave Southlake. If you're in the area, please check this place out--you won't be disappointed!

    LOVE this place. God bless the people who came up with Las Palmas…read more First of all, please never change the queso- it is heaven sent and we always take it to-go (I'm NEVER leaving the rest behind) and it tastes even better the next day. This queso is probably the best I've ever had. BTW it is a LIL spicy but I can let that slide. Another great appetizer option would be the Nachos Al Carbon with wagyu. Super good too & honestly you can even order it for just one person as a main dish-- the serving size is big enough. BUT THE REAL STAR OF THE SHOW AT LAS PALMAS ARE THE WAGYU FAJITAS!!! Incredible. Comes with flour or corn tortillas, beans, rice, and obviously the works: sour cream, guacamole, lettuce. You know the vibes. Speaking of vibes, they're always there at Las Palmas. It is always busy but I genuinely don't care and never mind waiting an hour and a half for our table. It's worth it. This place is a confirmed staple in Dallas. Probably come here once a month if not more often. Thank you for great food and good service too- that's hard to come by nowadays. TRY THIS PLACE OUT! This is your sign!

There was a time when Meso Maya was the go-to for upscale Mexican in Dallas. The culinary scene in Dallas has changed so much that it is not longer the case. But the downtown Meso Maya remains an icon and continues to deliver consistently good food and service. The restaurant still has the warm ambience and remains in good condition even after all these years. It was too hot to sit on the patio so we ate indoors. The interior is smaller than I remember. The restaurant still starts you out with complimentary chips which are strips, and a smoky, spicy salsa. it was great. I started with the a mescal margarita and it was excellent. The kid had Topo Chico and the wife had Prosecco. Everyone enjoyed their drink. For entrees, the wife had her favorite, the vegetable budin, which is like a lasagna. The flavors were deep and rich. She loved it. I tried the carne tacos and they were excellent! The meat was tender and smoky. The beef had been marinated for a wonderful flavor. Good quality with no fat. I usually avoid ordering beef at restaurants because I often get more fat than meat which I detest, but not at Meso Maya. Our server Luis was very good. Present when we wanted and not when we did not. Overall, the restaurant was a hit on every level--ambience, service, and food. We like the downtown location the best and will return.

Original review: I really wanted to love this place, and I was so close to doing so. The good: the ambiance was cute and fun. Loved the decorations, the bar is big and takes up a lot of the area where some of the tables are making it a little crowded but that's not a big deal. They had a performer there that night and that was cool. The item we were so excited to try was the biggest disappointment, the chicharon! It looked so good but it was so bland and chewy. We thought it might have been undercooked and ordered another second and asked them to cook it longer but alas it was like chewing on nothing. And that is the common denominator with all the food here. It was so bland. The only item I enjoyed was the jalapeño and cheese sausage. The salsa was bland. The meats were bland. The chicken was overcooked and dry. The drink in the bowl was good. But other than that the meal was a disappointment which is truly sad because we were looking forward to the meal, and it was pricey too. Had the food been good we wouldn't have been bothered by the price. We needed some flavor that day.
