    Salsa
    Juan C.

    Everything was awesome thank you guys. Love especially the salsa will be coming back again.

    After church today I went into los molcajetes at this location and the service was very good, our waitress was very nice and polite, the food was excellent, I had a big burrito with meat, rice and mashed beans in it and it was very good, even the chips were good, I also had a regular Dr Pepper and that was really good too, I will definitely come back.

    The food was good and the place was clean. The service was good and the staff was friendly. However, the margarita did not taste like a traditional margarita. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.

    Pretty good fancy Mexican cuisine. The menudo and quail is pretty great. Service is pretty good too. Worth a try if you're in the area.

    Tijuana plate

    Food texture, presentation and warmth was good. Everything was VERY VERY bland. I was definitely not a fan of the salsa. Nothing was spicy or had any kick to it. Service was good, vibe is nice, just a no for me and everyone in my family .

    We went at happy hour time. Service was fast & friendly. The chips were light & crunchy. I loved the hot spicy salsa. We shared a chicken quesadilla meal, which comes with 2 cups of sides (can be substituted), a bed of lettuce, diced tomatoes, a small scoop of guacamole & small scoop of sour cream. We subbed the rice & refried beans with a cups of charro beans at no extra cost. We got a box for 3 pieces of the quesadillas. The quesadillas were pretty good, tasty. Chicken was a bit dry, but the toppings mediated this. The cup of charro beans had generous amount of beans, so it was quite filling! Flavor was not bad, not the best I've had. The lime margarita on the rocks was great, $5.95, worth going back for! We split the bill, $14.54 each person before tips. The place was clean, spacious with colorful Latino theme. This place is typically packed at dinner time, would come early.

    I think the reason I give it only 3 is because I think I had higher expectations for this place. The service was outstanding but the food was ok, the prices are great BUT the chips and salsa were my biggest disappointment. The salsa was watery the chips weren't so good. I was hoping for better. I had the sampler platter which was good and my friends had the Tijuana platter and the Enchilada platter. Will I go back? Maybe I'll think about trying it again during HAPPY HOUR

    Chile Relleno Plate
    Kelli T.

    Great service every time I've been in but usually go around 5pm so it's not too busy. The Chile Relleno Plate and top shelf margarita are my go to; both so delicious. The chips, salsa and queso are fresh and tasty. Lots of seating; both tables and booths. Also plenty of parking.

    Chicken Enchiladas
    Kenetha B.

    I wasn't impressed at all by the food here. The parking lot is always full so I thought it meant the food was good. I was wrong. Chips were stale and salsa had no flavor (I tried to add salt to help it along). Hubby had the chicken nachos and they were oaky. The sour cream enchiladas landed flat. No flavor, just blah. Mansfield really struggles with quality Mexican restaurants. There are other places far better than this if you're open to leaving Mansfield.

    It's very hard to screw up beef enchiladas,but they managed to do it. That was the worst Mexican food I have ever had.

He made sure our water was filled, food was pleasing, cocktails were made to perfection, and our needs were met. He was super friendly and interjected just enough of himself to make it a great night for us. I ordered the pollo con champiñónes. They were absolutely delicious! It was served up similar to how fajitas traditionally are served, on a hot plate, along with onions, peppers, pico, and cheese. The roasted jalapeño was an added touch. Nice! It came with beans and rice, but I opted for double beans. The beans were flavored good enough, with cheese on top. The table was served with chips and salsa. While the chips were just alright, the salsa was flavorful but not too spicy. Jorge made up our piña coladas and they were SO SO good! They serve the TRADITIONAL ones with crème de coco, rum, and pineapple juice, like what we get in Mexico! No premix in a machine, but the real deal. Super! The ambiance was adorable, not fancy, but very traditional Mexican decor. You can go dressed nicely or casual and feel comfortable here. Try them and enjoy!

I can't believe that I've never before visited Mariano's Hacienda Ranch. I've been missing out on some great Tex-Mex! I knew I was going to have a great meal when I got out of the car and smelled the Mesquite smoke from the grill that Mariano's uses. The food was awesome and delicious. My Margarita was tasty, with a very generous pour of Tequila. The two salsas, traditional and warm chipotle, were fresh, with vibrant flavors of tomatoes, chilies, onions, cilantro. The guacamole was the perfect combination of avacado, lime, salt, cilantro, and onion. Our queso came with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, and Picadillo ground beef. My lovely Wife had 3 Shrimp en Brochette with a Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada. She was overjoyed with her flavorful Mariano's Hacienda Ranch Tex-Mex dinner! I was so very happy with my delicious Beef Fajitas (they used tender outside skirt steak) with onions and peppers, all grilled over Mesquite coals. The flavors of Mesquite permeated my fajitas with smoky, sweet goodness, while the marinated meat was grilled perfectly over high heat, to yield juicy, seared, melt-in-your-mouth, beef flavor. Service was friendly and professional. Our meal was relatively inexpensive, offering great value for the high quality of the very tasty Tex-Mex cuisine. I have a new favorite Tex-Mex restaurant in Arlington/North Texas. I offer my highest recommendation of Mariano's Hacienda Ranch in Arlington, Texas, at Hwy 360 & Majesty Drive. I can't wait to go back (especially for the Mesquite grilled Tex-Mex meals).

Everything starts with the fire-roasted salsa. That stuff is ridiculous. I'd pour it over a 2x4 and eat it. Smoky, fresh, and addictive. I have to stop myself from filling up on chips before the food arrives. The fajitas are the star of the show. Tender, flavorful, and consistently excellent every single time. This is one of those places where you don't need to study the menu. Just order the fajitas and thank me later. The service is always good too. The staff is friendly, attentive, and keeps everything moving without hovering over your table. If Mariano's ever changes their fajita recipe, I'm prepared to testify before Congress. Until then, this place gets an easy five stars from me.
