Breakfast Burrito
Audrey S.

Staff was super nice and helpful! I got a breakfast burrito and loved how you can customize it. The chorizo was super flavorful and not too greasy. The salsa was so fresh and the hot is actually hot, but you'll keep eating it because it's that good! Quick easy spot for a good meal. Plenty of seating and self serve salsas. They even have TVs to watch your favorite team.

Guanataco is that spot in Grand Prairie! My fiancée's Hispanic and grew up around amazing tacos, so when even she says a place is good, I know it's legit. Every time we order, the food hits -- flavorful, fresh, and made with care. The tacos are always loaded with juicy, perfectly seasoned meat, warm fresh tortillas, and that chimichurri salsa? Absolute game changer. I love that they never skimp on the cilantro -- it gives everything that fresh, real-deal touch. My go-to is the barbacoa taco -- ridiculously tender and packed with flavor. The fish tacos are spot on too -- crispy, light, and perfectly seasoned. And I'll usually throw in one or two beef tongue tacos every time because they're just that good -- rich, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth legit. We've tried plenty of taco spots nearby, but Guanataco just has that "made with love" vibe. You can tell they care about their food, and it shows in every bite. And look... we always say we're not getting the churros, but somehow they end up in the bag every single time . No regrets -- they're crispy, warm, and the perfect sweet finish. If you're in or near Grand Prairie and want tacos that actually hit, Guanataco is the move.

Taco plate with carnitas and al pastor. Chips and salsa

I went here for the first time for dinner since my dad really loves it he wanted us to try it for my sister's bday. There is plenty of seating and you can put tables together for big groups. You order at the counter and then once its ready you will have a beeper that will vibrate to let you know. Food took maybe 15 mins to be ready but that was good time since we ordered alot. I ordered the taco plate and hubby ordered the chicken quesadilla plate. I had horchata and it was good. Chips and salsa are not free but you can order for $5 and its worth it. Chips are crispy and the salsa is so good. They have a salsa bar where you can get different kinds and they are all tasty. The food was very good! Nice and hot and very savory. The quesadilla was huge and tacos were filled with lots of meat. The rice and beans very delicious! Definitely recommend this place. I need to try it for breakfast since they have chilaquiles and those are my fav!

BURRITOS de barbacoa
Denise G.

We decided on tacos tonight and chose based on a near me search after running errands. My husband's family is from Guanajuato so the name Guanataco stood out for us ;) Service is really good. Nice and helpful! The place is kept and clean. Great environment and vibe. The food was very decent and the portions are nice! The burrito we ordered was huge! They have a pretty good selection of meats to choose from. We ordered ours with barbacoa. It was loaded with rice, beans, and cheese. My husband and I split it. We also ordered some tacos de fajita and chorizo. The meats had really good flavor but they were just a little dry. I made sure to add lots of lime and salsa to make up for the dry texture. They have several salsas to choose from. I wasn't a fan of their salsa roja. It had a mayo taste to it or something. The chile árbol was delicious and spicy! My favorite. We also had the salsa verde and that one was pretty tasty. I'd come back if I was in the area. I don't think I'd drive out here for it. Overall very decent food with great prices and portions!

Quirky decor
Mandie Z.

This is probably my favorite place to get tacos, elotes, I mean anything! Their chili/salsa bar is amazing. I can't think of the name of my favorite one but it's the light orange one. Its kick hits you in the end , delicioso! So that being said where this is located I can't go very often because of where it's located it triggers a trauma for me. I know TMI, so I get it to go & get out of there. This was a Friday I ordered, went to the bano, marveled at their ambience got my food & left. I totally forgot to take pics of my food, but I can tell you it was delicious & huge I ate it for 3 meals. I ordered the burrito barbacoa & an order of elotes. I did however get pics of the quirky decor. You should really try this place!

Love the tacos ! I got 4 tacos and a drink for about $10 Definitely coming back!!! Invite your friends and family so delicious

The tacos were amazing! Al Pastor, Carnita, and Carne Asada with a Barbacoa tostada...great food. The salsa choices were great, too. Cool little place and the service is very good!!

Caroline Z.

Al Pastor Tacos, Beef Tacos, Barbacoa Tacos, Chicken Tacos, Churros YUM. These Tacos are amazing. Sooo flavorful, great size, great portion for price. They have so many salsa options, and they're all so yummy. They give you tons of raw and cooked onion, cilantro, and limes to go with your Tacos. And the churros!! Omg the churros were delightful, fluffy and crispy and sweet

Great ambiance. Seated on time with a reservation. Service was good although often hard to…read moreunderstand our waiter who mumbled a little bit. Our cocktails were all good - and the appetizers were very good. We had the crispy pork belly and the tostaditas with barbacoa. The crispy pork belly was especially delicious and I would order as my own dinner in the future. It comes with onions and sauces and corn tortillas and it's to die for - so crispy and flavorful. We ordered the Bistec enchiladas and they were good but not as good as the appetizers. They give you a variety of sauces when you're seated that you keep throughout the meal - from mild to spicy but I would say the "spicy" is on the mild side. Still good and flavorful but not unapproachable for most ppl. We had the Campechana dessert and it was a little strange. It was basically a vanilla Icecream cake with a crispy waffle cone like layering that was really hard to break until it sat a while. It was oddly addicting but also not that good? I can't explain it. We went to the cigar lounge area after dinner and had Mexican espresso martinis and watched football before heading home. There was little smoke smell but very minimal until it got later. Around 8:30 (on a Saturday night) ppl started smoking cigars and they opened the side windows and being 90degrees right now - it became less enjoyable so we decided to end the night. In the fall that room would probably be quite lovely with the windows open. They have comfortable seating and fire pits. Really more of a 4.5 out of 5. Loved the decor near the restrooms and patio too.

I had the shrimp salad and pozole, and Colin had the chicken brasa tacos. All of it was delectable.

There are so many Mexican\Tex Mex restaurants in North Texas and Mexican Sugar continues to impress. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - I love the atmosphere at Mexican Sugar. The restaurant itself reminds me of Mexico inside and out, and the different types of seating (communal, patio, traditional, cool) will give you plenty of options. But in the evening, when Happy Hour begins Mexican Sugar will fill up with tons of patrons and good energy. 1 Star. Service - The service has always been good on my multiple visits. This is a Mexican restaurant, and the staff know the menu very well. If you're not sure how something is pronounced or tastes, just ask! 1 Star. Food - There's brunch on the weekends and traditional Mexican dishes (tacos, enchiladas). On my visit on a holiday, I went with brunch and the Barbacoa Chilaquiles. This is a traditional Mexican breakfast where tender barbacoa is layered on tortilla chips along with a sunny side up egg. The result is a fantastic combination of flavors, texture, and heat. Yes, it's a slow burn, and those of you who like spice will love it. I had to finish it off with a Mexican Flan as a perfect way to cool my mouth. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. Honestly, I don't know why Mexican Sugar is not in my rotation of places in Irving. It hits every mark and I've never been disappointed. Yes. I'll be back. 1 Star.

After picking up my new shoes, it was time to grab lunch, so we headed over to Blue Goose Cantina…read more Even though the parking lot was completely full, we managed to snag a great spot near the front, which felt like a good sign right away. Walking in, the restaurant immediately impressed us--it was spotless, bright, and very well organized. I loved seeing the area where they make fresh homemade flour tortillas; it really added to the authentic atmosphere. We were warmly greeted by the hostess, Ms. Chloe, whose friendly smile set the tone for a pleasant visit, and she quickly seated us in a cozy booth in Ms. Rebecca's section. Rebecca was attentive, kind, and efficient throughout our meal, bringing water, chips, and salsa right away and giving us time to comfortably look over the menu. We ordered a side of guacamole, bacon-wrapped shrimp, and the lunch beef burrito with Spanish rice. Although I'm not a seafood eater, my daughter absolutely loved the shrimp and finished every bite, which says a lot. The guacamole was fresh and the overall experience--from the service to the atmosphere--was very enjoyable. The only disappointment for me was the ground beef burrito. It was a bit underwhelming and didn't have the flavor I was hoping for, and I wished I had chosen the steak instead. On a future visit, I'd happily return but will definitely skip the ground beef option and try something else from the menu.

My boyfriend and I usually visit every other Friday,…read moreand we almost always order the same meal: the queso, fajitas for two, two skinny margaritas, and dessert. The food is consistently excellent, and we really appreciate that they maintain such high quality every time we visit. Depending on how busy the restaurant is, we'll either wait for a booth or sit at the bar. Unfortunately, we've repeatedly had disappointing experiences with the service at the bar. At first, we assumed it was just an off night, but it's happened several times with the same bartender. We've also noticed that the male bartender seems much more attentive and friendly toward other guests, particularly a group of women seated next to us, which made the difference in service even more noticeable. Despite these experiences, we've continued to tip 20% because the food is always great, and we've never sent anything back. We genuinely enjoy this restaurant and want to keep coming back. I just wish I didn't feel disappointed whenever we end up having to sit at the bar.
