If you're in Fort Worth and looking for a spot that delivers on both flavor and vibe, Meso Maya is a must. The food is incredible--everything tastes fresh, well-seasoned, and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients in every dish. But what really sets it apart is the ambiance. It's warm, stylish, and perfect whether you're going for a casual dinner or something a little more special. Great food, great service , great atmosphere, and definitely a place I'll keep coming back to. read more

3years ago, I loved Meso, gave them an outstanding review, and told many about it. Today, I returned after a year or so and was really disappointed. The service was good, the ambiance is lovely, and the food was alright. I ordered the chicken quesadillas which came with guacamole and a relish type side that was tasty. The quesadillas were seasoned well, but were a little greasy. My mojito was super weak! Also, when we were paying, they offered a QR code, but you have to manually input your credit card information. No thanks. Then, when I asked for a container of the sauce to go with my left overs, they wanted to charge me! I'm talking about one of those tiny containers that maybe holds a tablespoon and 1/2. What? Excuse me?! Keep your sauce. You'll have to do better to get me to walk back in or to recommend them again. read more

We had an extremely disappointing and frankly concerning experience at this restaurant yesterday. We ordered a simple cheeseburger from the kids menu for our 3 year old, and within hours he became sick with what appears to be food poisoning. No parent should ever have to deal with that after a basic meal that should be held to the highest safety standards. It's unacceptable that a restaurant cannot ensure the safety of something as simple as a children's meal. This raises serious concerns about their food handling, storage, and overall hygiene practices. Based on this experience, I strongly believe this establishment should be inspected by the local health department. We will not be returning, and I would urge others especially families with young children to think twice before dining here. read more

This is the second time my husband and I have been here -- once for brunch after church, this time dinner with some friends. Delicious food, beautiful ambiance, really wonderful service. It was a perfect night so we asked to sit on the patio under the huge tree. The lights, the tree, and just the atmosphere was romantic, but casual. It was the perfect date night spot. We were greeted by our server. She was super nice and patient, gave us great recommendations, and she didn't come to the table to check up on us too much or too little. She really knew how to give us space. The food is always solid. I had the arrachera with homemade corn tortillas. The tortillas were nicely made and the beef of the arrachera was perfectly cooked to medium. It's a huge plate! The portion is very generous. It gave me a total of 3 meals. If I was extra hungry, I might have finished it in 2. I highly recommend the ceviche, the chuleta tomahawk, arrachera, mole de pollo, and the churros. ESPECIALLY the churros. Leave room for this! The chocolate dipping sauce they use is Mexican chocolate. The sweetness and bitterness were perfectly balanced. I would definitely come here again. You will not be disappointed. read more

Meso Maya Comida y Copas - Arrachera - Mexican Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

After years of birthday/anniversary dinners here, bringing friends and family for group dinners, and recommending Meso Maya to everyone, I was not only disappointed but genuinely traumatized by my food experience last night. As we've done many times before, we ordered DoorDash, getting our $85 (before tip) dinner delivered and the packaging/missing items should have been our first clue that this was going to be a bad experience. I've listed the issues below: We ordered a PINT of salsa to find no chips were included. Spending $10 on salsa is absurd but no chips!?! My salad, which already has limited toppings, did not include the sliced apples, which are listed as an included topping. The beans were just thrown in the box, covering half of my other side, the corn tamale. And the cherry on top of it all - THERE WAS A BUG INSIDE OF MY QUESADILLA THAT I ATE, CHEWED, AND SPIT OUT. I've included a picture of its leg still intact. As a LOYAL customer, I'm beyond disappointed and just overall traumatized from this experience... read more

Off the bat the service was good, wait staff was attentive and friendly. Food wise however, I was very underwhelmed with my visit to Meso Maya. I got the Pollo Serrano enchilada plate and my mother got the Mole Poblano enchilada plate. The sauces were decent but the chicken inside the enchiladas were flavorless-kinda like boiled in water and plopped on the plate?¿ I've been to the Dallas location and had an excellent experience so I was thrown off by my trip to the Tanglewood spot. Probably won't be back. read more

Food and service was fantastic. It was a different experience for me a year ago. Will return again soon.

I truly enjoyed our visit to this trendy Mexican and Mayan restaurant. The ambiance of this restaurant is fun and relaxed! The service was great and the food delicious! A must visit. The cucumber margarita was refreshing. Carne asada plate was so flavorful, I couldn't get enough. The sweet corn tamale was very tasty. The cochinita pibil plate was also delicious. Can't wait to visit again! read more

The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly however it was FREEZING COLD in there. People were wearing jackets and when I mentioned it to my waiter he didn't seem concerned at all. I run very hot always so for me to say somewhere is cold is really something. I ordered the cheese enchiladas and they were so cheesy that I couldn't get it to chew up. The rice was plain white rice and the black beans didn't have any flavor. My husband ordered the brisket enchiladas and those definitely had more flavor than anything on my plate. They didn't have plain tea, only some mango tea. This will not be somewhere I go again. read more

Outstanding! This has become one of our favorite restaurants in Ft Worth. The food is delicious, the service is next level (Viviana was the nicest server we have ever had). Do yourself a favor and give it a shot, anything in the menu is great but just go with the chef specialties and you can't go wrong. read more

Meso Maya Comida y Copas - Desserts are next level! - Mexican Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

We went to Meso Maya after much back and forth about where to go. I wanted Mexican food but not the same run of the mill flavors so we landed here for dinner out with the kids on my birthday. We were there at 4ish on Sunday afternoon and it wasn't very busy, at all. We were seated right away in Viviana's section. We liked her right away and she made us feel right at home. When it came time to order, we ordered the queso poblano to start, the carnitas relleno for myself, carne asada with a side of chimichurri for my husband, chicken tenders with fries for my 2 kiddos, we added on the poblano mash potatoes and sweet plantains to share. While we waited Viviana made sure our drinks were always full and we enjoyed light conversation with her and how sweet she was to our kids. She informed us that Meso Maya is a scratch kitchen and everything is made to order. We got our meal and everything was fresh and delicious. Our kiddos' meals came first and we were relieved because nothing is worse then hungry kids getting their meals well after the adults-which has happened more times than I can count at OTHER restaurants we've been to. They had a thin crisp batter and it was a very generous portion. My husband's carne asada was cooked well done per his request and the meat was still very tender with chimichurri as the perfect addition. The beans were well seasoned and sweet corn tamal was the a brighter side to break up the rich flavors. The cheese chile rellenos were just like my grandmother makes and the carnitas with avocado relish gave it the perfect balance. The plantains were and yummy added sweetness to our meal but the poblano mashed potatoes were not very good. The potatoes were dry and chunky and there was something off about the flavors. Overall, it was a wonderful family dinner experiencing and we are planning to go back soon. (No pictures because I had my 2 month old in 1 arm and my fork in the other and hubby doesn't take good photos.) read more

I took my 6yr old daughter here after an afternoon appointment and I can't say enough good things about the restaurant!! The restaurant itself is soo pretty and loved the different cacti at each table..The service was outstanding!! Our server was so sweet and helpful! The food was better than any mexican restaurant I've been to here in DFW and I've lived here for 8yrs!! I highly recommend the brisket and chicken enchiladas!! The flavor and different corn shells was a very authentic unique combination! Also the Salsa is incredibly addicting, spicy and smoky and filled with flavor!! You really need to visit this restaurant, it wont disappoint!! read more

4.5 Another amazing experience on this Fort Worth trip! We visited the Tanglewood location for lunch, and were impressed by the charming atmosphere, nice layout, and the menu which is a combination of expected and authentic. We were informed by our lovely server that everything at Meso Maya is made on premises, and selected our drinks from their expert bartender. The menu items we ordered were typical in name only; sopas to start, (Pozole Rojo, yum!) tacos, enchiladas, Cochinita Pibil, everything was amazing and on point, from the signature cocktail to the last bit of food on our plates. The freshness was noticeable, prices very reasonable. Nothing but great things to say about this visit to Meso Maya, will definitely return and highly recommend! read more

I've been wanting to go to this restaurant for some time (((not sure what took me so long))) but I finally made it. And honestly I was disappointed, I went with a Mexican friend and we both agreed that the food was just ok. We both had soup and it was just ok, the chips and salsa was just ok too. The house margarita was just ok, even the ambiance inside was ok. Thank goodness for the cocktail or else I would have left in a bad mood Service was good which is always a plus. read more

We stopped by this place after another restaurant had a 50 minute wait. Even though it was a Saturday night, we were greeted and sat right away by the hostess and our server came as soon as we sat down with our chips and salsa and to take our drink orders. I'm really picky so I hesitantly ordered the pollo Serrano enchiladas and hoped for the best..lol. Y'all, I am so glad I ordered them! They were so delicious that I even chewed slow just to enjoy them longer. Yes, they were that good!! My mom ordered the camarones a la diabla and she said the shrimp were cooked just right and the sweet and spicy sauce was really good. We both agreed that this is a place we need to come back to, especially when the weather is nicer so we can enjoy the really nice outdoor seating. Try this place out! You won't regret it! read more

Cool concept just terrible food. Staff was nice and ok at service but towards the end homeboy disappeared and we were left waiting for 20mins just to pay our tab. Were two big folks ordering food with two big plates and we were seated at a small table that even the sweet girl who delivered our food was asking why we had such a small table so she added another table to give us room. Food was not that good. I asked for medium rare and I was given medium well. The skirt asada steak was tough. And the mole enchilada was trash. The chicken was watered down and dry and the tortillas had a weird taste and texture. The best thing they had to offer was the hot sauce that stuff is so good I paid $8 to get a small pint to go. Beans were ok but the rice was a little crunchy. read more

What an amazing find! Came here on a whim, expecting normal boring tex mex and was pleasantly surprised to get authentic Mexican flavors. The guacamole was some of the best i've ever had, the posole rojo was an amzing soup and I loved the cochinita pibil, tender pork with so much flavor. Service was also outstanding! Ask for Alondra when you go, she will ensure you have a fantastic meal! Easiest 5 stars i've ever given. read more

Still popping in here on a regular basis. I absolutely love the soups and the exceptionally delicious ceviche. They're honestly the main reason I go. Add the lovely patio, and always excellent service, and it's just a perfect spot for an easy and relaxing meal. All the menu items I've tried have been fresh and tasty, and the portions are very (too?) generous. Some dishes are not prepared in the style I prefer, but that's just a question of regional recipes, and at the end of the day, they are all done very nicely. All in all, this is actual MEX-Mex food, which can be shockingly difficult to find in this part of the world. It's such a nice break from the pervasive Tex-Mex cooking that we are usually limited to around here. read more

Viviana was AMAZING!! We had a table of 20 and were never in need of anything. She was patient with all our request and had a smile on her face the whole time The manager and others stepped in when she got busy. The food was amazing as well! The chips and salsa were outstanding! read more

My wife and I went here for lunch today for the first time. I am happy to report we will be returning soon! Service was great, the food was very good. This place is in an area with several good food options within a hundred yards. Hulen is a main road in this part of town, and there is plenty to do in the area so you are likely to have reasons to be nearby. There is a lot of parking but I suspect during peak times it might get tight. They open at 11am, and we got there at 1135. I made a reservation online but only a few of the tables were occupied, so we got a booth near the back, which is also near the restrooms. The staff were friendly and all smiles. They say smile and the world smiles with you- True in this case. They had us in a good mood immediately. It was fairly quiet which I love. Drinks were ordered and appetizers were on the way in a jiffy. Complimentary chips and salsa were quickly served also. The salsa is some version of chipotle and was quite tasty with a mild heat. The chips were made from strips of tortillas and were light and crispy. We both ordered a house salad as an appetizer. The salad was a lime and orange (?) vinaigrette over greens with some apple pieces. It was tangy and refreshing and not overly sweet which appealed to me. The flavors were right on! I had a cup of coffee that was very good and probably made especially for me. My lovely bride ordered one of her favorites, Chile Relleno. I ordered something I hadn't tried before, Cochinita Pibil. I am not a super-fan of chile relleno, but the cheese they used was a little tangy and tasted really good, and the tomatoey sauce the pepper was in tied the dish together. My dish was very good! But I couldn't understand some of the choices they made- The pork was cooked to perfection and was seasoned wonderfully. I was very impressed! I was excited to see the meat was topped with pickled purple onions, but I was disappointed because they were simply blah- no hint of salt or vinegar whatsoever. The waitstaff mentioned that the tortillas were made in house and I had had no complaints with them. Both meals came with sides of rice and beans. The rice was almost unseasoned but had pieces of onions in it. Not sure why they wouldn't add some kind accent to it, but it was cooked right and filled my tortilla. The black beans were nothing special but tasted fine. The dish came with a salsa that might have had some citrus in it. It was ok, but I wish it had been a little sweeter and spicier. Pork loves sweet and spicy. This restaurant could probably churn out 5 star reviews fairly consistently with a couple of tweaks. I am being super picky but I definitely want to try this place again and you should too. read more

Husband and I came to celebrate my parents 40th anniversary and the food was great. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was awesome. The only reason I didn't give it a 5/5 star is because I feel like you don't get as much food as your paying for. It's a bit pricy and not really worth going back for other than special occasions. I love the place and the food but definitely pricy! read more

Went to Meso Maya expecting it to be crowded based on the recommendations I'd received. However, it was quite the opposite...quiet, calm, and personalized.

Amazing food.. so good!! They call themselves a scratch kitchen and you can taste it in their menu items. Serrano Enchiladas with chicken were amazing ! Fresh quac and house made queso superb. Chips and salsa are really good, salsa has a great slightly smoky flavor to it. Generous portions and everything was just excellent! Why don't I hear about this place more .. just so good! Our server was Vivianna and she was probably the best waitress we've ever had. She truly cared about our customers experience and is proud of the service and the food they provide! Very attentive and friendly. We're going back tonight to eat again! read more

Recently had brunch with my sisters and wanted a spot I knew they'd like. I've been here a few times for lunch and picked this spot for them to try. Excellent brunch! Service here is always wonderful. Staff is always friendly, informative and always asked if you've been there before and give you a quick rundown of who they are along with the style of food (because this is not Tex-mex it is authentic Mexican food) Brunch drink specials are $3 for mimosas, bloody Mary's, or house sangria until 3 pm on Saturday and Sunday. Pozole Rojo is wonderful but the pozole verde is phenomenal! There are both small and larger sizes. Mexican toast is the best ever and so much flavor and not overly sweet. This is a bit on the pricier side but brunch here is my favorite and sure to impress others. read more

Came here during lunch time on the weekend. Didn't have to wait to be sat. Received our drinks very quickly. Will say that my mom got a TopoChico and it was 5 dollars for the bottle. For a case of 12 in the store, it only cost 12 dollars. So they are making a killing off that drink. I got a water and Oaxaca. A tequila based drinks with orange flavors. I recommend this drink. I think this drink is worth the cost. Got my brisket enchiladas with queso instead of the recommended sauce. I'm not a fan of the sauce they suggest to put on them. The enchiladas were packed full of meat. The black beans and rice they also put on the plate are delicious. Honestly, I could just eat the beans, rice, and queso with chips and be happy. I need to be more adventurous with the menu and try more things. I just really enjoy the items I always order. read more

I thought this place was going to be super packed but as we pulled up to park, we noticed not too many cars. As we walked in, we were greeted and sat within maybe a minute? Ambience was beautiful! Lighting is dim and sets for a laid back yet classy experience. Lastly, the food.... Delicious! My only recommendation is serving tortillas with the entrees. I'm sure I could have asked and they would have brought some but otherwise, no complaints :) I for sure recommend. read more

This place is so good. I mean it's just good.

It was Cinco de Mayo so we made reservations as we have never been to Meso Mayo. We arrive and the host is inviting and welcoming. But as she is grabbing our menus, a girl quickly walks up to the stand seems angry and irritated. I can see and hear and the girl is saying don't seat anyone else and the poor host responds with, but they have reservations. This was not a good start to our first time visit. We get seated and start to look at the menu. We are both excited as we are new to the area and finally found a place that has Pozole Verde. Some chips get dropped off at our table by a guy but NO SALSA. Our server comes to the table about five minutes later so we ask about salsa and any Cinco de Mayo food and drink specials. Our server says, "we ran out of salsa" and our specials ended at 3 pm. Ummm, ok. What Mexican food restaurant runs out of Salsa?!?! Especially, on Cinco de Mayo! And does Cinco de Mayo end at 3 pm? Not typically so why not have specials all day and not just til 3 pm? We end up ordering the basic $10 house margaritas and of course they get delivered in a small slender glass and we both are finding it hard to taste and or believe there is actually any alcohol in our $10 margaritas. We guzzle them up in literally three drinks and decide to drink water as you can't go wrong with this. We then place our order for the best part we've been waiting for! We each order the Pozole Verde. It gets delivered within 10-15 mins. However, the delivery of what is in the bowl or better yet, lacking in the bowl, is very disappointing. My Pozole Verde has ONE single small piece of chicken in it. ONE PIECE OF BOILED CHICKEN for $15 bucks. The flavor of the soup is surprisingly on point but just dissatisfied and disappointed by so much. We were both excited to try Meso Mayo out but this visit was a BUST. read more
