    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

    I was surprised to see the place so packed on the 4th of July--apparently nothing says…read more"independence" like Tex-Mex, beer, and possibly the World Cup. I came in mainly to watch the game and have a few beers, but the service was so good you'd think I had ordered the entire menu instead of just casually committing crimes against the free chips and salsa. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made me feel very welcome. Honestly, if they treat a guy this well for drinking beer and demolishing complimentary chips, I can only imagine what happens if you actually order food. Definitely made me want to come back hungry. PS- my server was Anthony

    I really wanted to like Uno Mas, but it was an uphill battle. We dined here for brunch on a Sunday…read moreand they were moderately busy. The restaurant seemed warm and inviting with all the natural light, but as the meal progressed, there were quite a few misses that degraded the overall experience here. First, they didn't really have much in the way of non-alcoholic drinks except for sodas, which I typically don't drink. I wanted a flavored lemonade or an agua fresca. The waiter said they had lemonade and they could add some mango flavoring, but when I go the drink, it was terrible. It was like a Countrytime or something to that effect. I couldn't taste the mango flavoring. The waiter was kind enough to offer to remake the drink when he realized I didn't like it, but it was the same again, so I gave up. It just tasted so artificial and gross. For my entree, I ordered an enchilada plate with scrambled eggs and potatoes. The first time it came out wrong. It was beef enchiladas and not the cheese that was listed on the menu. Then they brought out my plate again and it was now covered in queso. According to the menu, it was a cheese enchilada with chili con carne, but I didn't want to raise the issue. I was really hungry at this point and just accepted it. The food was okay...2 1/2 or 3 star territory. The restaurant itself was pretty cool. I like the location and the abundance of natural light, but the miscommunications with the kitchen and the generic lemonade drink exposed some real opportunities here.

    We loved our meal. As a first time Mexican to El Carlos elegante I loved the flavors and avoidance…read moreof Tex Mex. We enjoyed all our drinks- hibiscus margarita, spritz and casa verde. Would return for drinks only and time with the bartender Devonte who was all vibes. We loved all the food we ordered. From the one hitters to the dessert. We've been in Dallas since late 2021 and happy we finally sat down for a meal here. It took me back to Mexico City and sparked energy within us to be exited while eating. Thankyou!

    5/5 Stars Everything…read moreabout my dinner at El Carlos Elegante was exceptional. Rather than ordering à la carte, I chose the Elegante Experience, a four-course chef-curated tasting menu that concludes with dessert for $99 per person. The menu evolves with the seasons, allowing the kitchen to showcase its freshest ingredients and current specialties, so every visit has the potential to be a little different. For the quality of the ingredients, creativity, and execution, I thought it was an outstanding value. Every course was beautifully prepared and packed with flavor. Not a single dish felt like an afterthought. The house-made masa program and wood-fired cooking really shine throughout the meal, and it's easy to see why this restaurant has earned such a strong reputation. The service was prompt, attentive, and genuinely courteous without ever feeling rushed. The atmosphere strikes a rare balance, it feels refined while still being warm, familial, and incredibly inviting. If you're ordering a cocktail, I highly recommend the El Dragón. It paired perfectly with the meal and is worth trying. I've uploaded several photos with this review be sure to flip through them to get an idea of just how beautiful the presentation is. El Carlos Elegante is one of those restaurants that reminds you a tasting menu doesn't have to be intimidating or overpriced. It simply delivers outstanding food, excellent hospitality, and an experience that feels well worth the price. I'll definitely be back.

    The food here was great! But the service here was bizarre to say the least. We had actually booked…read morea reservation at another Doce Mesas location, but I did't know there was another location. So thinking we showed up for our reservation, this location says they don't take reservations. They stop at is anyway, which was nice. We were seated on the porch, and here's where things got weird. We ordered our drinks and when the drinks were delivered, we said we were ready to order, and the waitress, hesitated and then said she would be back. Kinda strange, but eventually we had our order taken. I ordered a mango agua fresca which was pretty good. The complementary chips and salsas were also really good. For an entree I had the Tempura Fried Fish Tacos. These were very good and the coleslaw served with them was very good- crunch and bright. Overall the food here is pretty solid. The service was a bit off, but not a deal breaker, just be prepared to wait a while to have your order taken.

I would like to mention that they nickel and dime you pretty hard. There's a split plate fee and they voluntarily brought out veggies for my GF friends when they inquired if they could eat the chips, but they ended up charging us $6 for it. Not the end of the world, but good to note!
