They probably have some of the best birria in the city. Moist, rich, fatty, a hint of cinnamon. I would definitely recommend this spot read more

Solid tacos, definitely not bad at all. Hit the spot. I have had better though. It's a decent place if you're nearby.

Very clean restaurant with an extensive menu. Good customer service and food was made promptly. Food was tasty but expensive for the amount served. There are things a restaurant should not be charging extra for. I ordered a plate of tacos with salsa on the side rather than in my tacos. They charged me extra for that! Shouldn't salsa be on the house? I didn't ask for extra salsa, just on the side. I was charged $1 per tablespoon of green salsa. Wow. Chicken was dry and overcooked. Meat was thick and very chewy. Their burritos are the size of a king size corn tortilla ($10!) Overpriced "extra" items. 1/2 a cup of rice for $3 and literally 1 egg for $2! We ordered the chilaquiles which to my surprise were made with store bought tortilla chips....not what i am used to but tasty. Review was made based on two separate visits. read more

LONCHES DON PEPE - Tacos Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

Very good very authentic food that's a bit on the greasy side. Definitely recommend even if you have to drive a bit to get over to it.

2nd time here and they did not disappoint!!! This is my new favorite spot Everything was sooo good. Even my picky 8 year old loved the nuggets lol. If it's not McDonald's she usually won't eat them. Also, I'm guessing the owner...he's taken my order both times and seems so nice and sweet. He explained the menu to us and I appreciated his kindness. read more

Service was ok. Our food came out softly after we ordered it. Horchata tasted water down and the food looked promising! The taste was there but the breaddddd sucked!!! I couldn't even lift the torta off the plate to have my first bite when the bread was falling apart! I've had tortas ahogadas from Guadalajara and I know we cannot replicate that type of bread but least the could have done is toast the bread so that it can harden and last for at least a few bites. read more

LONCHES DON PEPE - Torta ahogada - Tacos Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

This place is hidden and in the shopping location across the street from Sam's club. The service is very friendly. Here is what we ordered: 2 Gordita tongue and trompo 2 tacos with the same meat 3 aqua frescas - watermelon, rice and hibiscus 1 Torta - tongue with fries 1 Tres Leches cakes They make 2 sauces green and orange. Green sauce is more milder than the other, but both bring out a kick. All the food was great and would recommend, but the tongue was a little bit dry for us and probably should get the trompo and other meats. The tres leches cake was very moist, but wish they gave you a bigger piece. The aqua frescas was great. I would highly recommend this place. read more

Some of my favorite birria tacos (and I've tried a lot) - they're simple, so no outer cheese shell like some places but super flavorful. The consommé is very flavorful. I also tried their steak quesadilla but found it pretty basic so I likely won't get it again. All in all, I'll be back for birria! read more

Very clean restaurant! Owner took our order and gave us the background on the story of the business. Recipes are original from his father's restaurant in Mexico. I was impressed with the birria, sauces, tortillas and service. We came at 11:30 am on a Sunday and it picked up shortly after. We will be back again!!! read more

Excellent hand-made Mexican food in a strip center convenient to the I-30 and the QT on Buckner Blvd in Mesquite. Everything here is handmade and homestyle, except for the 12-inch flour tortillas for the burritos and quesadillas. This family has been in the business since 1963, (beginning in Durango MX) so you know it's authentic. They make their own torta bread, Gordita shells and corn tortillas here every day - and that makes a difference between a great taco and an exceptional one. I had the 3 taco place with Barbacoa, Lengua, and Carnitas. Each nest was tender, delicious, and so flavorful. Carnitas were super porky and fall-apart moist and tender. Lengua is a .52 up-charge, and worth every penny. Large cubes of tender and savory beef tongue - mmmm. The Barbacoa was finely chopped yet luxurious and so tender. Generous portions of all 3 meats were nestled in homemade corn tortillas - heavenly! My daughter had the 3 Gordita plate with Barbacoa, Trompo, and Beef fajita. Gordita shells are made fresh here, and friend for order is they came out crispy and delicious. Trompo and Fajita were both well seasoned and tender. Mmmmmmmm 100% will definitely be back - and we definitely bringing Daddy for lunch on Friday. We can't wait to come back! EDIT: 27 May 21 - we're baaaack! Like we said above, we have to bring Daddy and today we did! He had the Torta Cubana which he really enjoyed, and I had the 3 Gordita plate with chicharron, barbacoa, and puerco al pastor. All delicious of course - we really cannot recommend this place more highly. We will be back AGAIN - next time for Birria Quesa (Stewed goat with cheese) and maybe on a weekend for the menudo (even though I'm the only one that will eat menudo). 5 autentico comida mexicana estrellas read more

First of all I went here because it had a 4.5 rating, it should have had a 0 star rating. The food was garbage, those flautas look like taquitos that you buy at Walmart frozen section. And the fries were as well frozen I saw them frying them from a frozen bag. This is not real authentic Mexican food. It was a waste of money. read more

One of the best authentic Mexican places in Dallas.. always clean and always good. Favorite is the Mexican burger

Raul was really nice! The music was great (Mana) and Camila style music not really mariachi type. Also not blaring loud. It was a nice change from all Mexican restaurants. Fast service and quality food! 10/10 experience here and can't wait to go backs (get the lime jarritos!) The gordita masa was absolutely perfect. I got bean gorditas. The beans could have been mashed up bit more but that's just me being picky lol. It was delicious. Also got the potato flautas. They were ADDICTIVE! Incredible!!! I'm so thrilled to find a place with potato as a filling. It's so hard to find something that isn't meat. I love this place! The green sauce is nice but the orange colored one is my favorite! Thank you Raul, your wife, and everyone else! I'm thankful to find this place and hope everyone gives it a try! Authentic and delicious food!!:) read more

I want to start off with wow everything was great since the moment we walked in. We where greeted as soon as we entered! The guy at the front (who then told us is the owner and/or owners son) was very enthusiastic, he told us their bread is freshly baked everyday and aguas frescas are home made too! The food was a solid 10/10! I just wish the salsa had a kick to it (: that's all. (EDIT: the red salsa is spicy and tasty!) Horchata was great, tortas where great, portions where fair, beautifully put together (: Definitely coming back! read more

El dueño es súper buena persona, amigable y servicial. La comida está muy rica. Todo lo que he probado esta deli. Las tortas/Lonches están llenadores. Y las papas siempre están doraditas y de buena porción. Los tacos dorados y las flautas también muy ricas. Las quesadillas también excelentes ya sea de harina o de maíz. A mi me gustan mucho con adobada/pastor. Todo lo puedes pedir con un chile toreado. Súper recomendable y más en esta área donde solo hay comida rápida. Apoyen este pequeño negocio. read more

I've been here twice and I only had the Birria tacos. I had them the first time and they were so good that I had to come back and have them again. My future plans are to go back and have them yet again. They are amazing. Service was good. I asked if they had any extra hot salsa and turns out they do offer two salsa's but if you ask they have a third one that is the best if you like hot spicy salsa. The restaurant was clean and has an open feeling. We found this place by chance just by pulling up the google maps and searching places to eat near us and we sure was not disappointed in this one. read more

I found this place while in the area for work. The Quesa-Birria was amazing! 10 inch homemade corn tortilla stuffed with shredded Birria and cheese. Served with delicious consomme, onion, cilantro and lime. Everything about this was delicious and good to the last bite. Ambiance is relaxing and chill. Sadly, I was the only customer at the time, but I hope that changes. Don't sleep on this place folks! I wish I lived closer. read more

LONCHES DON PEPE - 10 inch Quesa-Birria - Tacos Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

The ambiance is decent. Clean restaurant and tables. Menu looks good. The food looked and tasted good. But the problem is the pricing versus the quantity of food given. I ordered rice and beans on the side . The charge was $2.99 each and I expected a good size portion for that. When I received my food I was provided a small portion of rice and beans . (Think 4 small spoonfuls of rice and the same for the beans) The same size as they sell with a plate of 3 tacos for $8.99. I asked if there was a mistake and he said no. Well ok then! I guess they don't want to sell these items individually so they over price them. I won't be coming back again read more

The tacos are so good. Handmade tortillas and the michelada was very good too. A must for anyone in East Dallas

I never do reviews but this place is amazing. I really recommend this place ! 10/10 great customer service as well

The food was really good and good prices in my opinion. I love the horchata and the burrito I had.

A new place for lunch yah! There aren't many places close enough to my work for lunch except for fast food so I'm glad this one opened up. I tried it for the first time by ordering the beef fajita sandwich and was not impressed. The bread was loose and fall apart. The meat wasn't as flavorful. But I wanted to try it again because it's so close and I wanted something quick without going to fast food chains. So the second time around I got the spicy pork quesadilla with a salad (cabbage with tomatoes) instead of fries. It was delicious. I was such a different with my first experience. I was impressed and definitely will return. read more

The 4 Birria tacos. Are so delicious and flavorful. The workers are all super nice. It's very spacious clean and family friendly.

This place is in our neighborhood, so we decided to give it a try for lunch today (Sunday). Nice interiors, very clean and inviting. We ordered to go and the food came pretty quickly. I ordered the Gordita Caseras Plate, with two Carne Asada and one Chicken. It came with a side of rice, a slice of onion and tomato and shredded cabbage. Also came with a small container of both red and green salsa. It was good everything was fresh and tasty. Chicken was a little bit bland, but the salsas added a nice touch. We also ordered the Quesa Barilla w/ beef. I have never eaten anything like this before. The bread was somewhere between a thin slice of cornbread and and a flour tortilla. The texture of the bread was perfect for soaking up the consomme (sauce) that came with it and the shredded beef was delish. We also got a trompe taco and beef cheek (barbacoa) taco. They were both excellent. They were also very accommodating to switch the menu from Spanish to English based on who is ordering. So excited to have it in our neighborhood and brought home the menu so we can all ahead take out orders. There are so many things on the menu we want to try, so will be back soon. We are pretty regular Mex Mex eaters, and had not encountered many of the items here. Keep up the good work Don Pepe! read more

I wish this place was closer to where I live because they had the best tortas I've had in the past decade.

Ok food. The trompo taco was good but the lonche was just ok. They hardly put any meat on it and they use watery avocado spread instead of real avocados. It was mostly just bread. The place is clean but saw the cooks using bare hands to turn the tortillas on the geill read more
