    Birria fried rice, Birria eggrolls, Birria dumplings, veggie egg rolls, chicken egg rolls.
    Nick B.

    10/10! Highly recommend Birria fried rice and Birria egg rolls. We ordered a bunch of stuff and everything was great, but those two dishes stood out tremendously to me and I don't think you can go wrong with them.

    We've passed by this restaurant so many times and finally decided to give it a try--and wow, yum yum yum. We ordered quite a few dishes, and every single one just made sense. The food is creative, unique, and beautifully blends flavors from both cultures in the best way possible. From peking duck tacos to handpulled birria noodles, to birria burrito, everything is delicious and Bold! Service was fast, attentive, and genuinely polite (always a win). And let's talk about the interior--so well designed. As a designer, I absolutely loved the fun, unique decor. You can tell a lot of thought went into the space. Safe to say, we'll definitely be back.

    On the House fried wonton skins with a Chinese sweet and sour sauce and a Mexican cilantro sauce.

    When my husband told me "I found a restaurant for us to try. It's a fusion of Chinese and Mexican!", I had my doubts. We had gone to one before and I didn't really enjoy it at all. But we went to give it a try. The interior is really cute with neon signs. The staff was so friendly and when they saw us eating everything, they genuinely looked so happy. We asked our waiter for recommendations and he gave us his opinions. The food ... We sat down and they gave us a bowl of fried wonton skins with 2 different sauces: Chinese Sweet and Sour and Mexican Cilantro. I have not had friend wonton skins for a long time. When the bowl looked almost empty they brought us another bowl all on the house. We wanted to try their Chino Mex portion of the menu and selected 3 dishes that popped out at us ... Juicy Juicy Birria Xiao Long Baos, huge and delicious Honey Walnut Shrimp with Pineapple Tacos, and the Birria Noodle Soup that was so good we ate and drank everything in the entire bowl. I was very skeptical at first but it has now become one of my favorite restaurants to bring my friends.

    Rating: 4 / 5 I was excited for this. I am from Hong Kong and Chinese is my kind of cuisine. I also love Mexican food. So it felt like best of both worlds for me. There were a few things I was disappointed, specifically the service (in the meantime, still want to give a shoutout to our server, Daniel!) I personally like the ambiance of the restaurant. The neon light signs are super cute! However, I found it very interesting that the backdrop was the Chinatown in Bangkok - not sure what the connection is there LOL. Now let's talk about food - I didn't take pictures for all the dishes we ordered - listing the dishes we ordered based on my ratings from best to worst: 1. Peking Duck Taco 2. Birria Fried Rice 3. Birria Noodle 4. Matcha Bun 5. Black Lava Bun 6. Wagyu Beef Dumplings 7. Birria XLB Friends ordered the Hong Kong-style har gow. I am not a fan of har gow so I didn't try. Best: Peking Duck Taco I personally am a huge fan of the Peking Duck taco. The traditional way of eating Peking Duck is wrapped with a thin piece of dough (if I describe this correctly). But the taco goes with the Peking Duck. The flavor of Peking Duck is there and I love it. 2nd Best: Birria Fried Rice I usually find birria too salty for my taste, but this saltiness blends well with the fried rice and it was flavorful. 3rd best: Birria Noodle Another surprise! The blend of birria, the broth and the ramen. The broth is a little salty for my taste but the overall taste was really good. 4th best: Matcha Bun A great dessert after all these dishes! A nice blend of matcha and the bun. Very creative way of using the matcha flavor! The other ones we ordered: - Birria XLB: it's really a meh for me. All of us (there were 5 of us) didn't even realize we were eating birria XLB until we started listing out the dishes we ordered. Also, may I ask - why were the spoons not provided? I had to awkwardly eat my XLB with the soup spilling all over the plate. I understand this restaurant is not catered to only Chinese people and many people may not know how to eat properly XLB, but still - please provide a spoon. - Wagyu Dumpling: another a-okay for me. i wouldn't say it's outstanding. - Black Lava Bun: not sure what happened with the texture of the custard. The flavor was there but it was very watery. I'll give a benefit of the doubt and say it was just a bad day for the custard. Here's my biggest complaint - the service. Again, Daniel (or was it Danny?) was great. It took forever for the finished / dirty dish to be cleaned up. I worked at a similar kind of restaurant before. I see there's a food runner and server. It's cool if the food runner was not cleaning up but I see the servers were walking around and not helping with cleaning up the dirty dishes. We had to ask several times to get the dishes out of the way since we ordered quite a bit. We were sitting by the kitchen and all I see was the manager looking straight ahead from the cashier (we sat on his left) and not even noticing our table needed some clean up. Then, we asked for a check not long after our dessert. It took a very long time to finally get our checks ready. Not sure what's the holdup. I don't see the restaurant being super understaffed. Overall review: I'll be honest - even though the birria has excellent flavors. The restaurant feels more Chinese than Mexican, not just by a little but a lot. I didn't get to try a lot of the Chinese dishes, but knowing they are wrapping dumplings on the spot and there's hand pulled noodles, I can imagine those dishes would be great. I don't see too much of the Mexican element in this fusion restaurant. I wouldn't give a strong yes that I'll come back but I'll consider in the future.

    Unique concept! Mexican and Chinese fusion Menu features many favorites and new dishes that tantalize your tastebuds. Super clean with huge glass window for viewing chefs preparing food. Had the Kung Pau tacos and they were delicious! Add this to your must visit list

    Winnie C.

    Overall solid place with a few standouts! Definitely not a huge fan of the fusion dishes, and think they were more of a miss Tried the walnut shrimp and Peking duck tacos. Didn't like the tortillas as they reminded me of Mission tortillas you buy in the grocery store. Peking duck tacos are a great concept, but putting Chinese food in a taco and calling it fusion is not really fusion in my opinion. Definitely skip the calamari, poorly fried and seasoning was meh. What you need to get here are the hand pulled noodles and dumpling options. The shu mai and xiao long bao were 10/10. I would come here just for those options. Xiao long bao I think I would argue best in Dallas. Reminded me of the XLB from Shanghai. Steamed dumplings were just ok. Dessert baos were not bad. Always fun to have chocolate XLB Service was standard. Decor is fun. Price is fair I think for who you get Definitely would come back!

    Melissa M.

    Date night and this was a place we had been wanting to try and so glad we did!! Yall there calamari is hands down the best I have had! Whatever seasoning they use its perfect. Wontons in chili oil was also the best I have had! The spice hits more at the end Shrimp honey comb dumplings were amazing but they did come out late so we were already hitting that full button at least I was! Now there kung pao chicken was good but compared to the other options it was mid I already know what I want to try when I go back

    I loved the food and the service. The restaurant is very aesthetically pleasing and since it was our first time there we got the menu explained to us. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The menu has a lot of options and parking is good. I will definitely be coming back to try the other items.

    Pork dumplings
    Eva P.

    I absolutely loved this place! My favorite were the fried pork dumplings. These were filling and so full of flavor! I wish we ordered more. The birria noodles were exactly what we hoped for. The fusion between both worlds, was perfection! They close between 3PM-5PM, so plan accordingly. The place is a little on the smaller side, check in with the QR code when walking in, and the wait wasn't too bad. The wait staff was also very attentive. This restaurant is now among one of our favorites!

    Chocolate xiao long bao
    Sarah N.

    A very delicious fusion! My friend really enjoyed the fajita bao and I loved the szechuan dan dan noodles and the truffle xiao long bao was very truffly! Service was a bit spotty during peak lunchtime Saturday but I would definitely go back!

    Birria Fried Rice
    Alicia S.

    I had high hopes for this place and over all it was just okay, it definitely could have been better. I loved the decor of the restaurant and our server was extremely kind, but it was super busy when we arrived which might have been the problem. We ordered the spring rolls, calamari, hand pulled noodles, birria fried rice, Mongolian beef burrito and then honey walnut shrimp burrito. The food had the potential to be great but unfortunately the flavor was just mid. The items took a bit long to come out, and when we finally got our food my order was wrong and they forgot our appetizer. Thankfully, they were kind enough to fix my order and bring out our appetizer so we could take it to go. Out of everything we tried my super carnivores babe said the vegetable spring rolls were the best thing he ate (so take that however you'd like).... I will say the margarita was strong so that was nice ! Overall, our experience could have been better but i would consider giving them another try just to see if they were simply having an off day.

    Shanghai Cucumber Salad
    Frank S.

    3.5 / Overall - room for improvement. First I'll start with the food. Shanghai Cucumber Salad - 3/5 Not super easy to ruin this, and while it wasn't ruined, it certainly was "meh", the cucumbers are swimming in juice and there isn't a lot of seasoning, didn't taste bad just not delicious or memorable. Wonton in Chilli Sauce - 3/5 Also underwhelming in the flavor department and the size of the dumplings is very mid to small. BBQ Brisket Buns - 3/5 These buns were well made enough with the texture of the bun itself. However, the inside of the buns was very dry and there was only brisket, they were not entirely bbq'd and not steaming hot. Usually moisture in buns makes them amazing, these were also not memorable. All of these opinions are based on the legacy of Dragon House's standard, this doesn't compare and it's not as great unfortunately. Ambiance - 5/5. The ambiance is very fitting and beautiful. No notes on that. I love it. Service - 3.5/5 - Refills were not provided, no one came to ask if the food tasted good and can we please have the host look more sharp? He's wearing a hoodie and a beanie, while other staff is wearing a nice button down and look polished. Thank you for reading! Look for my red notebook on the table and say hi if you see me!

    Premium wagyu beef dumplings
    Alisha S.

    Dragon Casa is a Asian-Mexican fusion spot owned by the same owners of Dragon House! I got to try several items off the menu including xiao long bao, noodles, calamari, tacos, and more. Everything was top tier, however I did wish there were more fusion flavors with the dishes. I absolutely love the concept though!

I've had a ton of different food items the years, but their fajitas are their signature dish for a reason! It comes out sizzling, fresh, and delicious. Do not pass up on the bone marrow sauce, it transforms the dish to beyond a 10/10! The salsas are always good and then tortilla chips salty and fresh. I start with a skinny margarita w a salt rim, which was good. Our waiter, Abraham, was great! He was very attentive and was very knowledgeable about the menu. We also order the ceviche to start, which was yummy! The crackers were a bit of an odd pairing for me and I stuck with tortilla chips, but overall delicious!! My friend ordered the steak quesadilla and thought it was tasty too.

    Came in on a whim on a Friday night around 9pm with no reservation. We were instantly taken aback…read moreby the ambiance here. My wife and I agreed it felt like we were back in Mexico City. Chris our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took his time walking us through the menu and explaining what made El Carlos Elegante so special. The drinks were perfect. My wife loved her Desert Flor while I thoroughly enjoyed my Modelo Micheleda. Her Surf and Turf one hitter was exceptional. I have to say my Crab Cake was just ok. It tasted a little pasty and very heavy on the bread. The Pulpo was absolutely amazing. Perfect texture and the sauce it was served almost had me licking the plate. The El Machete was incredible from its presentation, to the freshness of the corn tortilla, to the quality of the meat inside. Definitely recommend this. We really liked our Okra + Shishito course, we just wished it had more okra in it. The two things I loved about the Al Pastor was of course the sauce it was served on but the fact that I got to enjoy it like a steak. It was served sliced on a bias like flank steak. Typically Al Pastor is finely chopped and served in tacos and burritos, so this was a different eating experience for me. And of course it was delicious as well. We cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu.

    I was genuinely excited to bring my friend here for her birthday after such an incredible…read moreexperience back in December. That visit checked every box -- the food, service, ambiance, and overall hospitality were all exceptional. What really stood out to me then was the attention to detail. I had casually mentioned that one of my cocktails wasn't quite my taste, and Harry personally reached out afterward to say they'd gladly adjust it next time. That kind of thoughtful follow-up leaves a lasting impression and is exactly the sort of hospitality that elevates a restaurant experience. Unfortunately, this recent visit felt like a completely different restaurant. We decided to do a combination of à la carte dishes along with the Experience menu after being told this version would feature entirely off-menu items, which genuinely intrigued us since Ihad also done the Experience previously. At the start of dinner, we were asked about allergies and dietary restrictions. I clearly explained that I have a mango allergy and do not eat beef. Our server then asked whether I ate other meats, and I clarified yes -- and even specifically mentioned that if the machete dish was beef, please still include it because my friend could enjoy it and I really wanted her to try it. He confirmed it would be the sirloin version, so we happily agreed not to modify that course. So imagine our surprise when one of the first dishes arrived dressed with a mango vinaigrette. Thankfully, we barely caught him quietly mentioning "mango" as he set it down. We immediately looked at each other thinking, "Didn't we just discuss the allergy?" It was disappointing, but unfortunately also representative of the overall service throughout the evening. Our server seemed disengaged, inattentive, and often not fully listening. Empty glasses sat untouched, opportunities to order additional items were missed, and at one point we were simply handed the check without even being asked if we wanted anything else. We also ordered a bottle of sparkling wine and ended up pouring it ourselves for most of the evening because our glasses were rarely refilled. I completely understand not leaving the bottle tableside if walkway space is limited, but repeatedly needing to get up ourselves to retrieve it felt out of sync with the level of service one expects from a Michelin-recommended restaurant -- especially at this price point. Then came the machete dish. Instead of the sirloin version we specifically discussed, we received the vegetarian potato version. When the server asked how it looked, I politely explained that we were disappointed because he had specifically told us it would be the sirloin preparation. At minimum, I would have expected another protein substitution given the earlier conversation about what I could eat. I'm also still unclear whether the Experience menu was truly "off-menu" as described, since several dishes -- including the halibut -- appeared familiar. Had that been communicated differently, we likely would have skipped the Experience altogether and simply curated our own meal. At the end of the night, spending over $500 while pouring our own wine, nearly being served an allergen we explicitly disclosed, and receiving dishes different from what was promised made for a deeply disappointing experience -- especially after such a phenomenal first visit. It honestly felt sad more than anything because I know how wonderful this restaurant can be. I'm not sure what changed in the last five months, but the difference was significant.
