    Mangonada margarita
    Daniel R.

    Today was the first time I had this place and it was actually amazing, we traveled all the way up from burleson and the food was great and the it was just a very friendly and nice restaurant to visit, it was worth the 45 min wait in line, also get some margaritas and just enjoy yourself here!

    The restaurant was not busy so there was plenty of sitting yet all that came in were seated close together. Would have liked a little space for privacy. I noted their beautiful Mexican pots with fabulous plants around the establishment. We were seated and waited on quickly....ordered margaritas, which was a little bit difficult, because I don't understand Spanish and it seemed our waitress knew little English or we just could not understand her. This was frustrating, can you imagine how long it took us to order the meal. Once done when the chicken & steak fajitas came out fresh and sizzling. Chicken was tender and seasoned perfectly where the steak was tough & bland. The wrong beans were brought, but OH Well, no big deal They have a variety of dishes to select from. (See Photos of Menu) The establishment was handicapped friendly. Was clean on the inside and out. As we ate and drank our drinks, the waitress seated, a lady and her 2 children, one being a very young behind us. Immediately the baby started crying and no break, never quit. That was it for me !! Got a to go box and we were out of there. Lenise, my good friend said her sister loved the place, so now we can say .. we tried it. Hope you have better luck, have a good day.

    Bowl of roasted veggies - delicious!

    My favorite local Mexican restaurant! Such a fantastic find. I went here for lunch with a friend and enjoyed delicious chicken flautas. I requested to sub out the rice and beans for grilled vegetables and they brought me a huge bowl of delicious roasted veg. Our server Alex was wonderful and the atmosphere was such fun. Los Molcajetes is beautifully decorated and has great music. Also - very delicious mild salsa!

    This place is always consistent. Fajitas for 2 is well worth the money. It's a huge pile of meat. I'd come 30 minutes earlier than you'd normally plan if you are coming for dinner on the weekend. Every time I've come for dinner it's been packed and had a wait time. It's worth the wait and the popularity proves how good it is.

    Always fast, friendly service and great margaritas. Quality is consistent and portions are generous.

    Terrible

    Or take out when I got it home and open the box, shell was crushed because they shoved this into a box that was too small and it therefore broke. All I had was a fatty cut of meat some lettuce guac and sour cream and that was it. Plus it was cold and I live 2 minutes down the road.

    Time to celebrate another birthday! My sister turned 50 yesterday so, we headed to the usual, Los Molcajetes. It was crowded around 7:00pm, with people waiting outside for a table. There must be a gym close by because , I saw few guys in work out gear. There was a small wait time for our table. We didn't mind. Chips and Salsa had the same consistent taste. Loved the spicier Hot Sauce. There was a bit of a wait for our drinks. I chose the Carne Asada Tacos. The Beef had been marinated, grilled and chopped into tiny pieces with lots of fresh chopped Cilantro on the side. I was expecting a small portion but, it was like two spoons of Carne Asada for each Taco! The Tortillas were soft and flavorful . It was like an upgrade from Rosa's Tortillas. There's was like four birthdays going on. The very first Happy Birthday Song scared the crap out of us! We were all startled. Lol If you have a party of seven. The tip will be included on your receipt. As you can see it was a joyous time. It was worth the drive. I'll probably be back in two months. Lol.

    I attended a birthday lunch and the food was delicious. The salsa was flavorful and not too spicy. The queso was creamy and so good! I ordered beef enchiladas with classic sauce. I was not disappointed and had plenty for leftovers!! The birthday girl had a great time and so did the rest of the party crew.

It's easily our favorite place for anything birria. From the birria pizza to the tacos, everything is incredible.

The service is great, and the Chicano art painted throughout the restaurant gives the whole place such a cool, authentic vibe. We always share the combo because you get a little bit of everything, and trust me, it will definitely fill you up. Seriously, get it. This is our number one taco spot in DFW, and after your first visit, it might be yours too.

    First time here and it was such a positive experience. I was a little confused about dressed code…read morebut it really is a mix. We were over dressed but there were some really casually dressed people so I'd say just come hungry or sort of hungry. I had seen all the buzz about the fried cactus and as someone who has grown up eating all my life I was intrigued on how this would be any different. Boy was I wrong. In fact, I would be happy enough just coming and eating only this. I have some sort of food limerence where I cannot stop thinking about this. Like daily! I want it so bad. No it was a whole experience because waiter placed this bowl towering with a mountain of curly crunchy ribbons. He kindly gave us his advice on the best way to eat it. You take their fresh made blue corn tortilla, pile on the cactus, don't be shy, if it fits in your mouth just go for it, then that green sauce was heavenly. All the flavors combined made me levitate. That would've been embarrassing. You could easy fill up on this alone given enough time and privacy. I just wanted a moment alone to enjoy fully ha ha. I then ordered the Chile en Nogada and the picture alone was enough for me to go yes we're on our way immediately. However listen I am a self proclaimed gift wrapping queen. I know a good ribbon and a good bow. I know that the typical dish has a bow - yes a fabric bow but this bow was not up to the standard of this restaurant, unfinished edges, and the color satin gold was not really representative of the environment. Good thing the bow is not edible but visually it could use a little improvement. The dish itself was 4 out of 5 for me only because I have had this dish before at a more casual space and every component of the dish was full flavored, where this one feels a bit safe. For dessert I was a little unimpressed with the options. I am not a fan of tres leches so I did not order their most famous desert but instead opted for another one that was a pastry with ice cream on top. I also give it 4 out of 5 its needing more flavor and sweetness, I mean this is dessert. The five stars is more for the service. Our server was amazing. He described every dish we ordered as if we were watching a Netflix documentary of a chef competition and they just submitted their dish. The table next to us got an amuse bouche compliments of the chef and I didn't want to be too nosy and peek over so I have no idea what it was. I was really hoping we'd get one too because honestly I was still hungry after all that. Oh cocktails. We ordered a drink before our table was available and I was not playing. I remember ordering a glass of bubbly rose and when our server brought it he served me a sip and had me try it before I decided, but honestly I wanted to tell him that I couldn't feel my face just pour it.
