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).

Unfortunately, I've visited twice now and the service has been practically nonexistent both times. The hostesses are always very welcoming, but once we get to the table, the experience completely changes. Both times, our servers acted like they would rather be doing anything else and that we were inconveniencing them just by being there. It's disappointing because the food and drinks are good enough to make me want to come back, but the service makes it hard to justify another visit.

I ended up dumping the meat out and eating the tortilla and condiments. My husband said his order was OK.

I live nearby and had no idea they opened at 9 a.m. Now, I know where to go when I'm craving birria before the 11 a.m. rush. Kassandra was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout my visit. I ordered two burrito combos, a watermelon and lime margarita with a sugar rim, a strawberry and mango margarita with a tajín rim, and the top sampler platter. I enjoyed everything, but the margaritas were definitely the highlight! I rarely drink alcohol during the summer, so I was excited to try the margaritas this establishment had to offer, and they did not disappoint. I also noticed a new establishment across the street with a similar name. I asked Kassandra if both restaurants had the same owner? As I suspected, they did! After paying my bill, I decided to head across the street to check out the owner's new restaurant. The staff at Mariscos Cortez was very welcoming and I'll definitely be returning to explore their menu! Note: Keep your receipt for 10% off your next visit! Offer valid for 14 days.

They were stuffed with tender meat and were not excessively greasy. They come with onion and cilantro and three different salsas. Kind of embarrassed to say I ate it all but I couldn't help it.

Service was friendly although they gave my plate to the person next to me, they went back and brought me my food fairly quickly. The horchata was also very good.

I tried 2 cheese enchiladas, one work ranchera sauce and one with chipotle. Both were tasty - definitely a Tex mex vibe. They weren't exactly the taste I was looking for that's close to what I grew up eating, but it was good still. My kiddo also had an enchilada and ate most of it and my husband had a burrito that he said was okay. Our server was nice, she was also working a party of about 33 at the time and was quite busy. It did take awhile for our check to arrive after requesting it, but overall it was solid service.

Waited forever to get a table. Watching at least five groups (inside where we were waiting for and they weren't small groups) get sat as we waited for them to put two tables together.

They sat us in the bar area, by the kitchen door,did not ask if we wanted to be seated in the bar area. Our waiter changed mid way through receiving our food. The chili con carne was not chili it was chili sauce. Yuck! The only reason why I am rating at all was the nachos were good and my drink was refilled without me having to ask. I would go back just for a quick lunch, Nachos and a Sweet Tea or a Coke Cola. I saw great reviews and this was why we stopped in but I would rather see honest reviews and try it for myself.
