Before you even walk in, the ambiance is already there! Once inside you are greeted by beautiful sweet ladies who are quick & efficient in getting you paid and to your table. The waitress/waiter is also quick and friendly! The unsweet tea is good. A great place to recover after exploring downtown! From the chorizo to the menudo, you'll find this buffet bar has everything to offer. Even desserts! After eating, be sure to check out the patio! read more

Hacienda Buffet - Chicken fajita - Mexican Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

We came at noon on a Thursday and the food was cold and seemed like it had been sitting out for a long time. The service was great, but the food was not fresh and some of it tasted like frozen food that had been reheated a few times. read more

Delicious food, and impossible to try everything on the first go of it. Hospitable service and nice ambiance with the Hispanic music to go with it. read more

All the food on the buffet was cold. Not very friendly, waiter never brought our tortillas, never offered to help us locate the items we wanted, fajita meat was cold and tough, enchiladas were the tortilla only no cheese or onions and cold, tamales had little taste and cold, the refried beans were edible, but the major thing is that everything we tried was cold, NOT even warm enough to be safe. We only ate a couple of bites and then left... waisted $40 but we learned a lesson. Check reviews first. read more

I must first say that the service is very good. The waitress was very attentive to our drinks and attentive to come to the table and ask how is everything. But I was embarrassed to tell her about it was very hot in the restaurant. It was hot where you could go to the buffet and get your food. It was very disappointing to see Fruit flies. and flies around sum of the food. I do believe they could be more attentive to stirring the food so that it doesn't become stagnant in the pan. Like when cheese will build a hardened layer on top. But even the fruit and the gelatin mainly the desserts they were warm not cold to touch. The place is very nice looking inside very warm feeling to the decor. for two people paid $45. Not quite sure if we will be back. Unless there is improvements. read more

First time eating here and will not be back. $56 for two adults, absolutely not worth it. 90% of the meat options were pork, I was hoping there would be more beef/chicken options. When I did find chicken, the chicken was completely dry and lacked seasoning. Super disappointing. Our waiter was friendly but had no knowledge of the drink menu when we asked what was in some of the alcoholic drinks. Menu says they have agua frescas so we asked if there was horchata and the waiter said he didn't know, so he went and checked, came back and said no. Maybe like 20 minutes later a table sits down next to us and I hear the waiter go over the agua frescas with them and tells them they have horchata. The place itself is decent, they have a huge outside area where a wedding was actually taking place. But, there are only TWO bathrooms for the entire establishment and one bathroom was down. There's also a sign telling people not to flush toilet paper, so when you walk into the bathroom, it was just super gross. $56 down the drain for a disappointing lunch. read more

Hacienda Buffet - Mexican Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Let me start off by saying, this is AUTHENTIC MEXICAN food. Not Tex next bull crap. Legit REAL mexican people making REAL mexican food. Everything I tried, I loved. When I tell you, a hundred meal options... I mean a literal hundred. You will never run out of options here. The service was phenomenal! (Cute uniforms as well) Very attentive and helpful. The decor is also traditional and added to the overall ambience of the meal. Definitely my favorite food in all of Dallas / Fort Worth. Also, get the olla coffee. Trust me. You won't be disappointed if you love coffee. read more

First time visiting this restaurant on Mother's Day, it was a great experience! We arrived at around 10:45 AM and our wait time for a party of 12 was no more than 10 minutes- which was perfect! The entire staff was very attentive and welcoming. The buffet has a great variety of traditional Mexican cuisine, they are constantly making sure everything is filled and the area around the buffet line is clean. If you happen to arrive while extremely busy, they have a beautiful outside waiting area with a bar and DJ! We enjoyed great music after we had our brunch, and continued to visit the bar, definitely worth the drive! read more

This was our first time and will be our last we visited on a Sunday. We ordered some mimosas, and were unaware that we would have pay with the waiter and not in the front! The food was mediocre nothing fancy, after the waiter looked right at me while we were preparing to leave he proceeded to chase us down and ask us not to go anywhere!! It was an embarrassing moment, maybe the wait staff should inform new customers that the alcohol is separate and could not be paid at the cashier! I felt that we were being profiled since we got there because of us being Chicano, but that's what I feel it was!! read more

There's a practically endless selection of Mexican classics and unique spins on your favorites here, where you have the chance to taste and fall in love with tons of different foods. I was blown away by the amount of choices and accoutrements available for them. The food was fresh, hot, and it's a buffet, so no waiting involved! The servers could have been a bit more spiffy with clearing the many plates we quickly had on our table, but they were helpful with explaining any questions we had about the food and sides. Additionally, the availability of Mexican drink classics was an unexpected surprise. We adored the Horchata and the chance to try the other tasty flavors. The restaurant itself is a bit dated, and the floors a bit uneven, but it sorta adds to that authentic charm, you know? The focus is on the food, as it should be, and for the price you pay for it all, I don't know how you could ask for more. read more

After seeing this place show up on TikTok and Facebook I decided it was time to see what all the hype was about. The building itself is pretty big. Enjoyed the courtyard before wandering in to pay. Property looks well maintained and it looked clean on the inside. Staff were helpful and friendly. The buffet area can be overwhelming at first until you make a few rounds and realize that it's not that massive as it looks. What I did like were the handmade corn and flour tortillas, Cafe de Olla was well made and the various other sodas and aguas (pineapple, melon, horchata, jamaica and tamarindo) you could get which were included in the price. What was a huge red flag for me was the price menu (there are no prices displayed). You don't know how much it is until you pay. Another huge downer for me and I did bring it up to the waiter we got was the fact that they charge for every breathing person who walks through the door. My son is 1 and was asleep and they still charged for him. I noticed it after I left but I don't care for those kinds of deceitful business practices. The Adult buffet is $25.85, Kids 6-10 $13.99, Kids 3-5 $7.99, and 1-2 Kids $3.99. Finally the secret is out on how much it costs. What you will find is that this is a glorified taco bar buffet. You have some options like a sopé with cheese and beans or a skinny greasy tamale and even chicken nuggets and fries but the majority of this buffet is built around pork, chicken and beef. All of them in a different sauce or grilled with a little something different. So, expect to basically eat tortillas with some type of meat. Rice and beans sucked. The dessert bar was sucky too. Would I try again? Probably not. Mostly hype but that is just my personal opinion. Paid almost $100 for 2 adults a 10 year old and a 3 and 1 year old. Price is way out of range for this buffet. read more

The food was really tasty, with lots of variety. Everything was fresh, and even on a holiday, nothing felt picked over. There were some wonderful dishes I rarely see. The place is very cute, and it looks perfect for large family gatherings. My only issues are about the service. Our server was sweet, but after bringing our margaritas and dropping the checks for them, she just didn't come back! We kept waiting for her to bring tortillas, as the other servers we flagged down told us only she could, but by the time we finally saw her across the room and got her attention, we were nearly finished eating :( We also would have bought more margaritas... I don't know if I would go back. read more

Gringo's do not go in expecting enchiladas or the like. The closest thing you'll see to Tex Mex is flautas and chicken nuggets. Mostly pork but all meats are served in sauce so try it all, why not. Lots of different soups, none were very appetizing. Meats were well overcooked, tamales were rocks. The meats (in sauce) are served with really good tortillas though. Tried a cheese and pepper empanadas, was just crust, all of them were and like biting through another rock. It's a neat place, large with outdoor seating. Probably not the cleanest of places. Our waiter was good at keeping out empty plates picked up and drinks full. Price is hefty. $56 for 2 people which does include your drink and tip. If someone asked us to join them we'd probably go, but would / will choose other options any other time. read more

Whole family visited the place for the first time! Service was excellent! Place was bright and clean! Food was abundant! Lots of choices check out the menu. To me this place serves more traditional Mexican food not Texmex! Every thing I ate was good! Little expensive for a large family! Waiter keep our drinks full! Will return! read more

2 stars at the most! & I'm being generous!! So, my wife & I heard about this place & wanted to try it out. We went, we tried it out, & we will NEVER return! We were sat, almost immediately. Our server Noa was good, margaritas were good. The food was absolutely terrible! I wasn't expecting very high-quality items, being that it's a buffet. But, for a $25 PPA. I was expecting, at best, something decent. Menudo tasted like it came from a can. Taquitos & fried shrimp were edible. Their separate grilling area in-cased in glass for patrons to view. Which was unpleasant to watch when their grill guy sat in the corner eating w/his hands, only to get up & cook. Disgusting! The beef fajitas were so thin & grilled so hard. I was unable to chew. & the single bite I took... the meat's texture was synthetic, w/zero flavor. Good luck in the future. But, we won't be back. read more

It's buffet food. Most of the meats were tough. Soups were decent. The sauces were very good. I enjoyed the salad bar and fruit bar the most. We would go back but it's nothing spectacular. read more

Took my family to eat here. Customer service was excellent. I gave it a three because some of the food looked old. Being Mexican I was not impressed. We did enjoy the environment, it was nice and relaxing. Hope they do better with their foods because the price was not worth it. read more

Let's get sick together!! $30 per person will give you 18 different questionable soups. You will also get to experience little kids rubbing around unsupervised with a willingness to run into you, splattering the contents of their plates all over you. Where the side of illness comes into play is with the meat, chicken nuggets, or anything else that requires tongs and food handling. I observed multiple workers placing the complete tongs on the food; handle and all were placed, touch the food. While kids are not washing their hands and adults are touching/sneezing in their bare hands, these are the same hands touching the tongs and now those handles are being placed on the food for your consumption. I also observed one worker drop some chicken nuggets down a hole in the side of the buffet. He then used the tongs to reach into the hole to pull out the nugget. Pieces of the nugget were placed in with the rest of the fresh nuggets and the tongs were placed completely on top of the fresh nuggets. The policy of this establishment is NO REFUNDS ONCE YOU'VE BEEN SAT. You even have to pay for the buffet ahead of time, while you're waiting on a list to be seated. After seeing this shiftless behavior with the food handling, I didn't eat. Also, the restrooms had no soap, so needless to say what has been transferred from people's hands to the food, and then to one's body. Eat at your own risk!! read more

Man I am super torn when it comes to this Buffet. I don't know of any other decent mexican food buffets in the area, especially ones with more authentic options on the buffet. They have you pay when you come in, I went for lunch which ended up costing me about $17-18 and they didn't give a tip option. I've heard it varies between 20-25 for dinner. So, personally I would bring cash to hand to your server at the end of your meal. My server brought drinks, tortillas, and checked in pretty regularly so great service. Though unfortunately there has been some inconsistency with what's on the buffet from visit to visit. My first visit there was things missing off the buffet or signs didn't line up with what was there. As well, one time they had chicken strips so I thought it would be good to meet up with friends that have kids, next time they didn't. Plus if you have folks in your party with any meat based dietary restrictions ...like can't do pork but can do other things ... assume everything is pork or cooked in lard. Unless you can obviously tell otherwise like with fajitas or if the sign indicates that it is not. So with those inconsistencies if you are going with smaller kid that is still somewhat in a kinda picky eater stage &/or people that can't do pork its going to be hard to bring them here. Especially for the price you pay, and with the set up of pay before you enter. Possibly see if you can go look before paying and explain why if you find yourself with someone with those kind of restrictions. read more

This is okay to try it once because for 21.00 a person was pricey. Now I see 25.00 a person!! They have more pork than any kind of meats. If you're are Muslim do not come here. I like the seafood soup and menudo . Fajitas are okay just chicken and pork no beef fajita. The deserts are limited. We went to this because pancheo is suck. read more

It's hard to eat here if you don't care for pork . My husband is not a huge fan of pork and doesn't eat it . It's like a ponchos but a little better . It truly is pork based everything . The fajita meat for chicken was very dry , but it is sitting on a boo fet Lol what do we expect . There was some very very good salsas ! What I had was good but not worth the 55 min drive to get to it . Price point was a little high for what we got . Service was a little weird because our guy didn't really speak great English and I speak zero Spanish . I think me being brown confused him ;) because he kept trying to speak Spanish to me and I could only smile and then point . It made it kinda fun , he was very nice and we made sure to tip him super well . If you are close and you like pork give it a try read more

The food is awesome all around. This is real stuff people, I get my fill of mexican food here. and I do not go any where else. The only set back I have is paying up front. last time I added a generous tip and received the worst service ever at an eating establishment. I learned my lesson, Even after eating there so many times. I will not do that again... You could have have a 5 star but service is a major part also. read more

Hit and miss on the food and very pricey for buffet. I don't think I'll be going back

Heard about this place from a family member and though we would try it out! I had read the reviews beforehand, but wanted to try it out for myself. This place is hidden.. I mean hidden and looks like it was or is a catering service? Not sure, but came in anyway. We tried a little of most of everything. Some things weren't to my liking, but others things such as the Red Chili and pork was delicious! The Menudo wasn't to bad for a Buffett. I personal didn't care for the beans. Didn't try the rice, just happened to not want to eat any? The selection was wall to wall. They offered nuggets, fish, and some other non traditional Mexican food. The meat selection was soaked with many different Mexican flavors. The coffee was very good!! Kind of random, but had to try it! Not a big selection on desserts was a disappointment. We will go back. One last thing.. it's $15 per person. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed the buffet! Many authentic Mexican dishes. The creme sauced ones were a little too salty for my taste, but that was mybonly complaint. Carnitas, Sopa de Mariscos, Menudo, all delicious. Ceviche, Cocktale de Camarones were also very good. It's a little hard to find, but worth it for a reasonably priced AYCE ethnic buffet! read more

My husband and I visited this buffet today for the fist time, we were impressed on the variety of the dishes they offer. Honestly this is authentic Mexican food!!! The service was great. The place looked clean. Everything we tasted was very good, and they make tortillas by hand, (Not flour tortillas) the normal ones. Bathrooms were clean. We are going back next week to try other dishes we have yet to try! I am impressed with the quality of the meals they offer! Totally recommend it! read more

Great food! Wonderful atmosphere. All food options were delicious. Pretty authentic, definitely will keep going

This place is amazing! You prepay before being seated ($22). Bring cash for tip. Drink is included and they even have aguas frescas. They have a sign that says no refunds, but you can check out the buffet offerings before paying. I came in today for brunch and left completely stuffed despite feeling like I hardly made a dent in their selections. There were so many to choose from...soups, beans, rice, a while section of different meats in sauces, cold salads, chips, all the the garnishes, desserts, and of course the salsa bar. They bring out fresh-made corn tortillas to your table. You can see them making it. My favorite dishes were the huevos ranchero, albondigas soup, and an empanada(?) that was filled with green peppers and jalapeños. A lot of the dishes were not labeled which was a bummer. Plenty of seating inside and outside. They have events here so the decor is very beautiful and traditional. There's an outdoor patio that looked perfect for just hanging out. Everything looked, tasted, felt so authentic. Even the crowd made me feel like this was authentic food. I'm so happy finding this gem and can't wait to go back! read more
