    A great spot for Mexican food! I ordered the tamale and the drew (not pictured because I was too excited to eat) and they both did not disappoint. The breakfast burrito was my overall winner as it had egg, cheese, square, and potato! They have a house made salsa that is amazing! We came here on Saturday morning around 10:30 and we waited about 30 minutes but the staff were all friendly and notified us of the wait before ordering.

    Amazing Mexican brunch spot located in the Old East part of Dallas. From the outside, it looks a little like a drive in and once you go in, you can place your order for to go as they don't necessarily have a dine in option. Regardless, this doesn't take away from how great the ambiance and food here is. From the second you step inside, you get a feel you're going to get true authentic Mexican food with fresh ingredients! The staff inside is always friendly and quick with getting you your food. They're definitely known for some of their breakfast burritos, but you can't go wrong as everything on their menu is great and worth a try. Overall, definitely recommend, especially if you live nearby!

    We got The Lance and bacon, egg, and cheese tacos at La Victoria. Overall, the food was excellent- particularly The Lance. Our service was friendly. My main con was that it took a while to get our food. While I should have called ahead to order (no online orders), a 25-30 min wait ended up taking around 40 minutes. The food was overall great but not worth that long of a wait. Overall, I would recommend this place if you time it correctly with a call ahead order.

    I crave the breakfast burritos from here DAILY. I tried the chorizo & egg burrito and added potatoes and jalapenos to it - SO flavorful and filling. I paired it with their hot salsa which was spicy & smoky. Honestly though, the burrito is so flavorful that I didn't even feel like I needed salsa. The flour tortilla is also nice and stretchy. It seems like a homey family run business. I felt like I was at my grandma's house when I picked up my food. I'm already looking forward to the day that I come back. It's a pick-up only establishment and there's plenty of parking!

    Breakfast Burrito - Drew

    I recently visited La Victoria for breakfast and had the Drew Breakfast Burrito. The crisp toasted tortilla was filled with fluffy eggs, soft savory potatoes, gooey cheese, and soft sausage. The side of flavorful salsa paired nicely. Keep in mind the restaurant is to go only and has no seating (we didn't realize this and ate in the car). It can take a while to get your food as well even when it doesn't seem very busy. It appeared many locals called ahead to put in their orders.

    Made it back again! I keep introducing them to more family members as we travel to Dallas! So good!!

    Had to come try La Victoria after some co-workers said it had some of the best Breakfast burritos! I had always passed by the location but never knew they were even open. Well let me start off by saying that my friends were not wrong. I got the "Lance" Sausage,Bacon,Egg,Cheese and Salsa. It was delicious! The size of the burrito for the price is definitely worth it. Next time all go ahead place my order ahead of time, it can get pretty busy. Everyone there was very helpful and the place was nice and clean.

    Great service with a extensive menu full of delicious Mexican food. Would highly recommend you come here for not only the food but for the fun quick service ambience. There are a lot of good things to get here but I would recommend the Tamales or The Lance Breakfast Burrito!

    No. There's no tables inside.

    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.

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!

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.

    I was genuinely excited to bring my friend here for her birthday after such an incredible…read moreexperience back in December. That visit checked every box -- the food, service, ambiance, and overall hospitality were all exceptional. What really stood out to me then was the attention to detail. I had casually mentioned that one of my cocktails wasn't quite my taste, and Harry personally reached out afterward to say they'd gladly adjust it next time. That kind of thoughtful follow-up leaves a lasting impression and is exactly the sort of hospitality that elevates a restaurant experience. Unfortunately, this recent visit felt like a completely different restaurant. We decided to do a combination of à la carte dishes along with the Experience menu after being told this version would feature entirely off-menu items, which genuinely intrigued us since Ihad also done the Experience previously. At the start of dinner, we were asked about allergies and dietary restrictions. I clearly explained that I have a mango allergy and do not eat beef. Our server then asked whether I ate other meats, and I clarified yes -- and even specifically mentioned that if the machete dish was beef, please still include it because my friend could enjoy it and I really wanted her to try it. He confirmed it would be the sirloin version, so we happily agreed not to modify that course. So imagine our surprise when one of the first dishes arrived dressed with a mango vinaigrette. Thankfully, we barely caught him quietly mentioning "mango" as he set it down. We immediately looked at each other thinking, "Didn't we just discuss the allergy?" It was disappointing, but unfortunately also representative of the overall service throughout the evening. Our server seemed disengaged, inattentive, and often not fully listening. Empty glasses sat untouched, opportunities to order additional items were missed, and at one point we were simply handed the check without even being asked if we wanted anything else. We also ordered a bottle of sparkling wine and ended up pouring it ourselves for most of the evening because our glasses were rarely refilled. I completely understand not leaving the bottle tableside if walkway space is limited, but repeatedly needing to get up ourselves to retrieve it felt out of sync with the level of service one expects from a Michelin-recommended restaurant -- especially at this price point. Then came the machete dish. Instead of the sirloin version we specifically discussed, we received the vegetarian potato version. When the server asked how it looked, I politely explained that we were disappointed because he had specifically told us it would be the sirloin preparation. At minimum, I would have expected another protein substitution given the earlier conversation about what I could eat. I'm also still unclear whether the Experience menu was truly "off-menu" as described, since several dishes -- including the halibut -- appeared familiar. Had that been communicated differently, we likely would have skipped the Experience altogether and simply curated our own meal. At the end of the night, spending over $500 while pouring our own wine, nearly being served an allergen we explicitly disclosed, and receiving dishes different from what was promised made for a deeply disappointing experience -- especially after such a phenomenal first visit. It honestly felt sad more than anything because I know how wonderful this restaurant can be. I'm not sure what changed in the last five months, but the difference was significant.
