Spinach enchiladas
Melissa M.

I love this place so much! There is a new vegan dish on the menu, it has been replaced. They used to have vegan cheese enchiladas but they don't have it anyone. They have spinach enchiladas topped with grilled vegetables now. I was nervous about it, but omg they were amazing! I loved the proper dish, but this was amazing also! It came with a side of green rice. Such a filling dish, I was only able to eat half because there was so much. We were given a free bag of chips and salsa. There was only one mishap, they initially gave me a different dish, but I let them know and they made my dish instantly and gifted me from empanadas dessert. I truly appreciate the kindness and hospitality of the staff. I will continue to come here forever!

Fajita tacos
Margo F.

The restaurant is comfortable and the staff is very nice. We got there right before 5 and ordered queso blanco off the happy hour menu for $5 for a large. Great deal! I got the chicken poblano enchiladas and my fries had the beef fajita tacos. Both were good, just not a ton of flavor. And I was hungry! I'm not sure I'd go back.

Strawberry frozen margarita
Kylie F.

Came here with a large group for dinner. The weather was great so they sat us on the patio. As the sun set though, there was no lighting outside so it made it pretty difficult to see when eating. I got the strawberry frozen margarita and the El Tradicional meal. The marg was great and they spruce them up to look very cute. My meal was filling and overall okay. Presentation was not the best. I was able to gal home leftovers. Our server was great! Always had the chips and salsa refilled throughout the night and split our check 10 ways without even asking. I really appreciated that!

Dessert.   Yes.    Coconut ice cream.   Yumm.
Jim B.

We are here every week for great Tex-mex and Mexican food classics. The manager and waitstaff have come to know us well. And the drinks are outstanding. You're gonna love Manny's.

VEGAN RELLENO
Rakshak R.

nice tex mex spot, clearly labeled vegan menu (3 options but they all look well thought out), and great service! the vegan relleno was great, it came with soy curls that were perfectly juicy, stuffed in a nice smoked pepper and topped with vegan cheese and a sauce. definitely want to come back to check out the other options. free chips and salsa as well- salsa was very good!

I ordered take out. Chicken fajitas. Very very yummy. Best I've had in ages. I have enough to last several meals too.

Manny's Special
Rachel H.

Came here with a large group. Was seated fast. Our server was pretty quick to give us our drink orders. The food did take a bit longer than expected to come but they kept our chip bowls filled in the meantime. Everyone at my table ordered something different. The food was okay. The flavor and spice wasn't quite what I was hoping for though. The atmosphere is nice and the restrooms were clean.

The closest I got to being served!!

Just sat at the bar for 7 long minutes. Was never acknowledged! I left and the hostess said thanks for coming have a great day!!

Steak Chimichanga?????  Straight onion and peppers no meat! Gross and terrible!  Have eaten there for years! No more

This was a steak chimichanga? All onion and peppers and neither cooked. I have been ordering and eating here for years! Not sure what's going on but allot of better choices are out there!

Reviews are mixed. Many highlight the flavorful Tex-Mex dishes, excellent margaritas, and pleasant patio atmosphere. Service is often friendly, though some report slow or inattentive experiences.

Will you be opening your Lemmon location again after the fire? I really like your restaurant and the patio. We liked to eat and watch the dogs at the dog park across the street.

Unfortunately, we are not re-opening at that location. We do have one in Lakewood on Mockingbird and Abrams. We hope you will check out the other locations!

I see that it has been more than 10 years since my last review so it is time for an update…read more We went here for a late lunch after attending an event at the American Airlines Center. There was a time when Meso Maya was the go-to for upscale Mexican in Dallas. The culinary scene in Dallas has changed so much that it is not longer the case. But the downtown Meso Maya remains an icon and continues to deliver consistently good food and service. The restaurant still has the warm ambience and remains in good condition even after all these years. It was too hot to sit on the patio so we ate indoors. The interior is smaller than I remember. The restaurant still starts you out with complimentary chips which are strips, and a smoky, spicy salsa. it was great. I started with the a mescal margarita and it was excellent. The kid had Topo Chico and the wife had Prosecco. Everyone enjoyed their drink. For entrees, the wife had her favorite, the vegetable budin, which is like a lasagna. The flavors were deep and rich. She loved it. I tried the carne tacos and they were excellent! The meat was tender and smoky. The beef had been marinated for a wonderful flavor. Good quality with no fat. I usually avoid ordering beef at restaurants because I often get more fat than meat which I detest, but not at Meso Maya. Our server Luis was very good. Present when we wanted and not when we did not. Overall, the restaurant was a hit on every level--ambience, service, and food. We like the downtown location the best and will return.

I've lived in Dallas for ten years, and I've never visited E-bar. I'm from ATX and the drinks…read moreremind me of Baby A's (IYKYK)! They were so cold, strong, and smooth. E-bar might have just won the spot for the best TexMex chile relleno in my book (I was a die hard Chuy's fan before they quit selling them). The beans clearly have the pork grease (yum) and the rice was delicious. Even though the place was packed, we were told it'd be a 30ish minute wait, we were seated in less than 20 minutes. Our server came out quickly, brought us drinks, so attentive! We'll definitely return! What a fun little spot!

Good food and great vibes! I visited with a group of three to enjoy dinner and watch a soccer game…read more Although it was quite busy, the wait time is very reasonable. The staff and other patrons were all enjoying the game together--there's definitely a good community that comes to this restaurant regularly. As for the food, the portions are GENEROUS. Each guest gets their own dipping bowl of chips and salsa. We shared an appetizer and two meals, and still had plenty of leftovers. I highly recommend the fajita nachos, which come loaded with toppings. Their drinks are also very strong, so plan accordingly! With all the fun and food, I accidentally left my wallet and did not realize until the next day. The staff held the wallet in their lost and found, made sure to ask verifying questions, and asked me to confirm if all my belongings were still in the wallet before leaving. For this exceptional service, food, and vibes, I highly recommend.

It had been several decades since my last visit to Mia's Tex-Mex, and since my wife and I were in…read morethe area, we decided to stop in. Wow--things have definitely changed! I remember when they were located further down Lemmon Avenue in a much smaller space. They've since moved uptown, and the new digs are beautiful and very inviting. After we were seated, our server, Ruben, greeted us with a warm smile. We were especially excited since we arrived just in time to catch their lunch specials--and there are plenty of great ones to choose from. We started with a couple of frozen margaritas and a cup of queso while browsing the menu. The margaritas were spot-on--not wimpy at all, with just the right kick. And the queso? Absolutely outstanding--some of the best we've had in a long time. The salsa was excellent as well. My wife chose the lunch-sized chicken quesadillas, while I went with the #7 lunch special, which included a cheese taco, a chicken enchilada, and a beef enchilada topped with chili con carne. Our meals arrived after a short wait, and everything exceeded expectations. My wife was thrilled with the portion size--it was just right--and she was all smiles after her first bite. The chicken fajita meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. My lunch special hit the spot and delivered exactly what I was craving. We had a fantastic experience at Mia's Tex-Mex. Ruben took excellent care of us throughout our visit, and we'll definitely be back again soon!

I tried to order an Agua Fresca, but the waitress told me that they didn't carry that. They only have Mango de Agua. It was my favorite item on the menu. It's mango puree mixed with water. It tasted healthy and was definitely healthier than a sugary Agua Fresca. We received free Chips and Salsa, and we ordered a large side of Guacamole. It had no salt and also tasted healthy. I did find where all the salt went. It went inside their "Famous Bean Soup". I ordered a large, and it was a salt bomb. I couldn't eat it. I also ordered their Chicken Mole which included rice and refried beans. The chicken is boiled and healthy. However, the meat was very dry. The mole sauce didn't taste very good either. The refried beans tasted moldy. Never had refried beans that tasted moldy before. Maybe this place used to be good. Seems to be touristy now. Service was poor. This was our first and last visit to this restaurant. There are many Tex Mex places in Dallas that are at least edible.

Our cocktails were all good - and the appetizers were very good. We had the crispy pork belly and the tostaditas with barbacoa. The crispy pork belly was especially delicious and I would order as my own dinner in the future. It comes with onions and sauces and corn tortillas and it's to die for - so crispy and flavorful. We ordered the Bistec enchiladas and they were good but not as good as the appetizers. They give you a variety of sauces when you're seated that you keep throughout the meal - from mild to spicy but I would say the "spicy" is on the mild side. Still good and flavorful but not unapproachable for most ppl. We had the Campechana dessert and it was a little strange. It was basically a vanilla Icecream cake with a crispy waffle cone like layering that was really hard to break until it sat a while. It was oddly addicting but also not that good? I can't explain it. We went to the cigar lounge area after dinner and had Mexican espresso martinis and watched football before heading home. There was little smoke smell but very minimal until it got later. Around 8:30 (on a Saturday night) ppl started smoking cigars and they opened the side windows and being 90degrees right now - it became less enjoyable so we decided to end the night. In the fall that room would probably be quite lovely with the windows open. They have comfortable seating and fire pits. Really more of a 4.5 out of 5. Loved the decor near the restrooms and patio too.
