After living in Arlington, Texas, for 10 years, I have finally enjoyed a great, first-time, meal at…read moreMariano's Hacienda Ranch (Tex-Mex Cuisine). I can't believe that I've never before visited Mariano's Hacienda Ranch. I've been missing out on some great Tex-Mex!
I knew I was going to have a great meal when I got out of the car and smelled the Mesquite smoke from the grill that Mariano's uses.
The food was awesome and delicious.
My Margarita was tasty, with a very generous pour of Tequila.
The two salsas, traditional and warm chipotle, were fresh, with vibrant flavors of tomatoes, chilies, onions, cilantro.
The guacamole was the perfect combination of avacado, lime, salt, cilantro, and onion.
Our queso came with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, and Picadillo ground beef.
My lovely Wife had 3 Shrimp en Brochette with a Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada. She was overjoyed with her flavorful Mariano's Hacienda Ranch Tex-Mex dinner!
I was so very happy with my delicious Beef Fajitas (they used tender outside skirt steak) with onions and peppers, all grilled over Mesquite coals. The flavors of Mesquite permeated my fajitas with smoky, sweet goodness, while the marinated meat was grilled perfectly over high heat, to yield juicy, seared, melt-in-your-mouth, beef flavor.
Service was friendly and professional.
Our meal was relatively inexpensive, offering great value for the high quality of the very tasty Tex-Mex cuisine.
I have a new favorite Tex-Mex restaurant in Arlington/North Texas. I offer my highest recommendation of Mariano's Hacienda Ranch in Arlington, Texas, at Hwy 360 & Majesty Drive. I can't wait to go back (especially for the Mesquite grilled Tex-Mex meals).
