    Chicken Tortilla Soup
    Tee J.

    Delivered. I got the goose eggs, and the pick 2 with a crispy chicken taco, pork tamale, and tortilla soup. The goose eggs were delish. I heated them up in the air fryer because why not. I mean you know...delivery. I did have to eat the filling out of them only after eating one. Why, you ask? Because they were hot. The chicken taco and tamale were good, also. One thing about the tortilla soup. Lots of big onions, lots of big onions. With that being said, I tossed those aside and threw down on that soup. Everything was good. Oh, chips and salsa included.

    We came after Performance at Grapevine Mills. Wasn't busy at all and we had a party of 10 they got us seated right away. Served Chips and Salsa to get started our server was very sweet and did a fantastic job navigate the group. We had guacamole as and appetizer which was served in a taco shell with limes fresh with some zest very good. I had the Tacos Dorados and Diana had the Mesquite grilled shrimp for drinks I had the Old Fashion and Diana the Paloma. Food was served hot with Rice and Charro beans. And we all were served at the same time so no one was waiting while the others ate.Its Tex-Mex done well.

    My call sign in the Corps was Goose, so anyplace with a goose as a mascot, icon, or wording its he name I almost feel obligated to try out. I am glad I stopped in here. The chips were nice, not overly thick and not overly thin, well salted, warm, and the salsa was good. It had a good taste, could be a little hotter for my tongue, but I can't complain since I know they make this stuff for the masses. The Taco Plate for lunch was nice. I had one beef and one chicken, both were very good. Shells were crispy, the flavoring was decent, not overly done. The ground beef wasn't overly greasy, tho it didn't have a lot of seasoning either. It was still good tho. I sat at the bar today, the bartender was very nice and helpful. He stayed on top of my insatiable need for chips and salsa. It was really good and the staff was just as nice. Don't let the age of the place fool you. It's a great place, I will return.

    That's pink!!

    Prices are good, but portion size and quality are not so much. Food came out cold, very bland taste and undercooked! Didn't eat..

    Pick 2: cheese enchiladas and guacamole tostadas

    Flood is great. Plenty of indoor and out door seating. Kid friendly. Good parking. Dog friendly. Service and margaritas are awesome. Great specials.

    Big Bad Botanas Platter
    Briana N.

    This was my first time at Blue Goose Cantina and I'm a big big fan! We were seated so quickly despite the restaurant seeming pretty busy and the servers were all so friendly. Free chips and salsa can be a hit or miss but these were definitely a hit. The chips weren't too thick or salty. And the salsa was delicious. We ended up ordering the big bad botanas platter (under appetizers) for the two of us because we wanted to try a variety of things. And it was the perfect choice. It comes with two of everything (but 4 of the goose eggs) so we both got to try everything evenly. And we were easily full, and with leftovers to spare. I just wish they gave some more of the queso. But they did give us enough guac and salsa. Also the goose eggs were so good! Coming back, I would definitely just get an order of the goose eggs themselves.

    Genuinely had an amazing experience i think Jack was our server and he was amazing! Took such good care of us and gave us great service even with our complicated order. All the food came out correct and tasting great. We got Queso, beef nachos, the enchiladas sampler i think it was called and dessert as well. Thank you for a wonderful dinner!

    We came to Dallas for a weekend getaway. The Blue Goose Cantina did not dissapoint. The atmosphere, the staff, and the food were all top notch. The food was well prepared and more than adequate portions. I was even impressed with the kids menu. The salsa is different than any i have ever had but delicious all the same. The drinks were not watered down and the award winning Diablo margarita is as advertised. Liz provided the best service we could have asked for, so much so we went back the next night just for drinks and asked for her specifically and she killed it again. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. When we venture back to Dallas we will 100% find our way here.

    Enchiladas, rice, & refried beans.

Yet, for the longest time, Baja Mex Grill did just that by serving the strongest margaritas in town. In fact, I had always heard that there was a limit of 2 per person. Although it may have only been a rumor, it was a good policy nonetheless (I speak from experience!) Even if margaritas weren't your thing, the food still held it's own. Basically, you couldn't go wrong with a visit here no matter your preferences. I don't know exactly when or how many times the ownership changed over the years, but apart from the name, nothing about this place is the same today. It was immediately evident upon being served chips and queso that both seemed like they came straight from a package. The extra hot salsa we requested turned out to be a creamy, green concoction that had a jalapeno-y flavor, but somehow still wasn't spicy. I will give them credit, however, for a very tasty regular salsa that appeared to be made in house. For my entree I ordered the Picante Enchiladas. Contrary to what the name implies there was no detectable heat. Furthermore, the grilled chicken on top had the distinct flavor of a frozen version made by Kroger. Once again, that prepackaged element reared it's ugly head. My husband and sons were mostly underwhelmed by their meals as well. The phrase "I've had better" was echoed around the table. And, they aren't normally a picky bunch! Our server brought everything out quickly, checked on us often, and kept our drinks topped up throughout our meal. So kudos to him! I have said this before, but it bears repeating. The Tex Mex arena is far too competitive for mediocre food like they serve here. It's a shame that a place I once considered to be 4-5 star establishment barely earns 3 stars now.

The service was okay but not as good as usual. After we said two of us were pleased with the temp of the soup, they didn't offer anything more. In the past if we ever had any issue, the manager has come over to talk with us. We weren't looking for any refund, just wanted them to know the food wasn't as good as we are used to. Additionally, refills were slow, and the fajitas came out in multiple steps, first the meat, then a little while later, the accompaniments and then a few minutes later, the tortillas.

I had not been to this particular Uncle Julio's before, in fact, it is set off the road enough that if you blink you might miss it. Walking in you immediately notice that the ambiance pays tribute to their other stores in that there is a nice blend of traditional Mexican decor blended with modern decor. I ordered Fajitas. I am going to say they were respectable. Not the best I have had, but way better than a lot I have had. Would I get them again? Probably, but there are a lot of other things I would try on the menu before getting them again. Being my coworker's birthday, we ordered a Chocolate Piñata for dessert. It was a fun experience to have people at the table take a swing at it, until out came Churros, and Fresh Fruit. There was an array of sauces to dip the Fruit and Churros in. Our Service was a bit slow at times, and for that I am taking a star off the rating. We all sat on the patio, which may have contributed to our feeling forgotten a few times

Any port in a storm, as they say. We have tried to like this place but just can't. The HVAC on the roof was thumping and rattling, making the whole ceiling of the dining area thump and shake. The lights were shaking as was our table. The salsa that came with the chips was really off, watered down and tasteless. I asked for a spicier one, which was a little more flavorful but also watered down. When our nachos came out, we were greeted by a pile of chips heavily coated in mostly melted, not great, probably fake, cheddar cheese. There was a layer of refried beans and grilled chicken underneath. The beans weren't bad, but the chicken was super salty. Very heavily seasoned with what is probably the same seasoning they put on their chips - some sort of seasoned salt concoction. My woman reported her margarita to be "super mix-y." My beer was cold, though. Like I said, this place just isn't too our taste but it seems to be great for others. And that's fine. If you come here just try not to sit directly under the thumping HVAC vent. I don't know how long it will hold. 02.23.25

Mesa's is just a few minutes drive from Gaylord so it is super convenient. The ambience is pleasant and open and in general it was fine. The restaurant was clean with plenty of seats and parking outside. I did not get a "homey" feel but that may be just me. Our server was attentive and efficient. No problems or complaints. The free chips and salsa were good but not outstanding. The salsa was warm and obviously homemade, but it lacked kick. It was tasty but not "OMG this is good." I started with a cup of Roberto's queso which is the standard queso cheese with some ground beef, pico, and a tablespoon of guacamole. It too was good but not outstanding. I am not sure what it was missing but there was something that was needed. I had the two beef tacos and they were just average. Not much flavor or anything distinctive. The ground beef was not well seasoned so they were kind of bland. The rice and black beans were also kind of bland. Frankly, my tacos at home are better. The wife had the taco salad and liked it, although it did not come with any dressing. She used the salsa. Not sure if that was an oversight or that is the way the salad is served.

Such was the case recently when we paid a visit to Mesa. The first order of business was getting an appetizer to go with the chips and salsa. Upon the server's recommendation we got the queso Blanco. It was quite possibly the blandest queso I have ever eaten. At this point I started to worry that it was a sign of things to come. However, the extra spicy salsa that we also requested to go with the chips was more flavorful and gave me hope for the entrees. The good news is that my chicken and cheese enchiladas turned out to be better than the insipid appetizer. The not so good news is that it was still a mediocre meal. The rest of my family had mixed feelings about their food. My husband, who got 2 beef enchiladas, said his were overly salty but otherwise average. The bacon wrapped shrimp that my mother got were a little overcooked but she liked the sides. Both of my sons' entrees, the Mesa burrito and the chicken strips, were very well received. People like to say that even when pizza is bad it's still good. For me, that also applies to Tex-Mex. But, considering the plethora options out there, I doubt I will be returning anytime soon.
