    Carne Asada Torta

    I had the carne asada torta and it was delicious! So much meat and the bread was perfection. I've been trying to find a good torta in Dallas for 6 years and now this will be my SPOT!!

    Service is great but the cooks can be inconsistent. I'm a regular here and I ordered a torta with extra meat they confirm that the extra meat is half of the fillet but this is what they gave me . $3 xxtra for this little piece of meat I've ordered with extra meat in the past and it's come with two whole slices of meat . Ps the fries are were made at home .

    $11.99 - AWSOME!!!

    i ordered the guiso with rice and beans and a add on beef crispy taco...this is the place to get good food at great prices, never knew this place was here, past by for decades and never noticed it....

    Chorizo con huevo breakfast plate

    The service is very fast/ it is self seating. The chorizo was good and it comes with your side of tortilla. The chips and salsa were also very good.

    a plate of mexican food

    Food is Tex Mex style. Prices are reasonable compared to other restaurants in the area. They did recently do away with free chips. Now you have to request ut at a cost. It's probably better than wasting so many baskets. We come here often. We have never been disappointed..yum yum

    Beef fajitas
    Heather R.

    I found my new favorite *Authentic* Mexican restaurant!! It is by far some of the best true Mexican food I've had and for and INSANELY cheap price! Atmosphere: Very "mom and pop" feel with servers that only speak Spanish; it makes you feel right at home and fully immersed in the experience! I went with my friends around 1:00am. It was interesting to see the transition as the time passed. In the beginning it was filled with families and birthday celebrations. Once 2:15 hit, the crowd shifted to young and Halloween filled guests. Food: The chips and salsa started my dinner off right! The salsa was perfectly spicy and the chips were very fresh. I ordered the beef fajitas. They came out sizzling and were delicious! I couldn't believe how much food came in a personal size platter, especially for about $9! I was beyond full and had food to go. 10/10 you won't be disappointed

    enchiladas
    Kevin G.

    my favorite spot to go to. it's up late. prices are much better than most places. enchiladas arent actually my favorite here but everything else is very good. they did recently start charging for chips but I'm okay with that. wife got the chilaquiles and those are top tier and some of my favorite anywhere actually. wish I would have got a picture. but trust us we Mexican Mexican.

    Our friends found this spot and it was such a great find! The vibe is amazing, nice decor, great…read moremusic, good service. We hung out comfortably and had a couple of drinks before heading out. The food is amazing!! Obviously every dish is meat based here and it's cooked to perfection. Seasoned deliciously and very tender. The garlic mashed potatoes were smooth and tasty. We also ordered Chicharrónes and guac. I'll admit I was very skeptical about The Chicharrónes because they're either cooked right or they're not. They got it down here. Everything was cooked exceptionally well and delicious. 10/10 recommend. Food and drinks are great!

    The short of it--food was fine, but certainly felt overpriced for what we ate…read more Long of it--Sat outside and it was nice. Here in Texas, chips and salsa are such a commonplace experience it's off-putting to pay for them. We ordered the guacamole and the chips and salsa come with it, so that was, I guess, better...but the guacamole was $16, so there's that. The salsa was tasty as was the guacamole, but again, for the portion it's really not worth it. We had the queso flameado, which was yummy and the flour tortillas are good! We split the sirloin and were underwhelmed. For a grilled meats place the steak was very under seasoned and wasn't giving us fresh hot grilled vibes. Meh at best, as were the rice and beans. We ordered elote as a side and it was really the best thing we ate. Service was friendly and efficient! Cocktails average $16ish. Again, for the prices we expected better.

    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.

    Moody lighting. Hand-pressed masa. Wood-fired everything…read more El Carlos Elegante delivers modern Mexican cuisine with depth, intention, and serious flavor. From the "one hitters" that wake up your palate to the mezcal-forward cocktails and flame-kissed mains, every dish feels thoughtful and layered. Service was excellent, our server recommended a tasting menu that did not disappoint and was very knowledgeable on every item. This is the kind of spot you book for a date night... and end up planning your next visit before dessert hits the table.
