Mexican Sugar Plano - Chicken Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Plano, Texas

My son, daughter, and I visited Mexican Sugar while I'm in town visiting Dallas. My son ordered the GRILLED CHICKEN & CARNE ASADA fajitas, my daughter had Barbacoa tacos, and I ordered the Roasted Chicken enchiladas. Since my son's fajitas came out on the sizzling skillet, his food was hot and he really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, my daughter's tacos and my enchiladas were both cold when they were served. At first, the waitress was only going to take my dish back, but once my daughter mentioned her tacos were cold too, the waitress got the manager involved. I really appreciated how the manager handled the situation. He immediately came over, apologized, and had both dishes remade right away. On top of that, he removed both meals from our bill, which was very appreciated. The customer service and how the manager handled the issue definitely made a difference. Overall, the restaurant was okay, but personally, I don't think I would return. read more

First time at mexican sugar and it was amazing! We didn't have a reservation so we waited a good 20-25 minutes on a sunday night around 6 pm. Food was really good and I love the interior. Complimentary chips and salsa- their salsa is chunky and it's really good! Has lots of flavor. We ordered their marinated shrimp appetizers, mesquite grilled chicken, and their brasas tacos. Loved all the things we ordered and even had leftovers, but that was probably because we had a late lunch so we were already partially full lol. Overall, it was a great experience. The restaurant is huge! So many places to sit, and all the tables were full. That says a lot. Probably better to reserve so you get seated quickly. Our total bill came out to be $64 and thats including a drink, and without tip. We will definitely be back! *They also have happy hour monday to friday from 2-7 pm! read more

Food good! Service very poor. Server didn't check on us once. Celebrating my daughter's 18th birthday and nothing was done to celebrate her even though the server asked if we were celebrating something. read more

I came on a Friday afternoon for happy hour appetizers and drinks with friends on the outdoor patio. I ordered a Classico margarita which was nice, I tasted my friends hibiscus margarita which was very good and refreshing. I always hear nice things about the margaritas here so we wanted to try them out and that will probably be the only thing that would bring us back. The warm table salsa is just okay. I ordered queso blanco with added chorizo and it came separate which was a little odd to me but not a problem. The queso did not have chips though so we did have to ask the waiter to refresh the chips for the salsa. Im not sure if he just forgot or what. No big deal though. I do wish the queso was served in something that retains heat better because it got cold SO FAST. It wasn't super flavorful either but not bad either. One friend ordered a fajita quesadilla and she enjoyed it. My other friend took the waiters advice and ordered the marinated shrimp and she said it was just okay but she wouldn't order it again. The waiter was very friendly and attentive otherwise. Again it wasn't terrible but we will come back for drinks over food. read more

Mexican sugar has outstanding vibes - great seats, music choice, and they are on point with the theme. My review is slightly biased since I consider this more of a vibe place - great views, patio, electric atmosphere. I'm not crazy about the food but I am interested in it. I've been here many times and this is my first time posting. The chips and salsa that come with are great. I was especially interested in the tequila vinaigrette that came with the salad and I quite enjoyed it. The staff was also friendly and attentive, so points there! read more

Mexican Sugar Plano - Adobo steak salad - Mexican Near Me - Plano, Texas

Overall this place was a wonderful vibe for my and my coworkers. The servers were attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We got apps for the table that I did it get pictures of but the guac and queso were delightful. The salad was served warm which is not my personal fave but that's just a preference. My entree was the chicken ceasar salad and it was light and refreshing and exactly what I was looking for that night. This seems like a great place to catch up with friends on a weeknight. The design on the inside was breathtaking. read more

First timer. This place was hopping! Obviously a place for work events or gatherings. The hostess crew was very friendly and helpful. I'm a solo dinner and they kept watch for me for a bar spot. My bartender was friendly and attentive. I noticed the entire staff was hustling! I ordered the La Citrona cocktail and the lump crab enchiladas. Drink was smooth drinking mezcal. The poblano sauce was so earthy and roasted with some spicy zing. I enjoyed it. I saw some amazing churros coming from the kitchen but I was too full to try. read more

Loved my visit to Mexican Sugar! I came in on a Monday evening and there were quite a few patrons, but the service was fast and our waiter was friendly and attentive. We basically came for drinks and to yap, but were tempted to order food after munching on the free chips and salsa the waiter brought out. So, we ended up ordering the arepas and they were warm, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. We also ordered the churros and they were crisp and comforting, and the chocolate avocado cake was rich, moist, and surprisingly light. I opted for a mocktail and was delighted with the watermelon-coconut agua fresca that was super refreshing and delicious. Everything was fresh and tasty -- I'll definitely be back! read more

Had to come back to this exceptional Mexican restaurant. We arrived around 5:30 and thought we had a reservation but turns out the reservation date was incorrect. The host at the stand was kind enough to get us seated, though since we were only a party of two. I will say they do have a happy hour here that seems to be very well attended and they have enough space that they were housing several large groups. We watched no less than three busfuls of people drop off and go into the restaurant as we seated outside. Our server was absolutely attentive and just a joy. I tend to drink a lot of water and she was kind enough to just leave a container of it at our table so that I could serve myself. I chose the Adobe steak salad for my entrée. The steak was perfectly cooked and the Adobe sauce/seasoning on it was very good. The salad itself was a little bit smaller than I expected, but overall, I thought the portion size was good since I wasn't terribly hungry. If I would've been more hungry, I definitely would've thought the portion size was too small. My coworker who was with me, got the Seabass, and she said the fish was cooked absolutely perfectly. She was very impressed with the flavor overall. read more

I was here for a work event and they booked the private room. There was a set menu. The staff were great, given how packed the restaurant is. The food was great too. I was super full! I loved the cocktails. The steak was perfectly cooked. I loved how tender it was. The only thing I didn't like as much was the dessert - I think the texture reminded me of carrot cake. Other than that, loved everything! Loved it here! read more

Mexican Sugar never disappoints! The service is always great--attentive without being overbearing--and the vibe is warm and welcoming. The food and drinks are consistently on point, but the star of the show for me is their chicken enchiladas. So flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and easily some of the best I've had anywhere. Paired with their cocktails, it's the kind of meal that keeps me coming back. Definitely one of my go-to spots when I want good food, good drinks, and good energy all in one place. read more

Mexican Sugar Plano - Mexican Near Me - Plano, Texas

I came here for dinner with a large group of coworkers a couple weeks ago and was really looking forward to it. A big portion of our table ordered fajitas, which typically come out on a hot, sizzling skillet. Unfortunately, none of ours were sizzling -- they were barely warm and seemed like they had been sitting out before being brought to the table. I ordered the seafood skillet with scallop, and it was especially disappointing. It's hard to enjoy seafood when it's served cold, and the tortillas were cold as well. The menu descriptions made everything sound flavorful and exciting, but once the food arrived, it felt like something was missing. Overall, the dishes were bland and lacked the seasoning and depth we expected. Another thing that stood out was the lack of bean options. For a Mexican restaurant, it was surprising that the only choice available was black beans. Offering at least one or two additional options, like pinto or refried beans, would make the menu feel more complete and authentic. I really hope the restaurant can improve consistency with food temperature and flavor, because the concept and menu have a lot of potential. With better execution, this could have been a much better experience. read more

Mexican Sugar Plano - Cold seafood - Mexican Near Me - Plano, Texas

The food is really good...service was so SLOWWWWWW! This will likely make me think twice before returning. It was really brutal!

Really nice looking restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Our server was friendly and attentive. I got the skinny margarita which was really good. One of my colleagues got the r margarita flight which was very colorful! She liked 2 of the 3. We started with chips and salsa and added guacamole. The guac was very fresh and made in house. The salsa was medium but was a little too tomato-y for me. The chips were perfect-thin and crisp. I was able to sub out my rice for green beans that were cooked perfectly. The black beans were cooked well also. The carne asada tacos were very ample. I got the corn shells which were ok. They totally fell apart and they seemed more like half flour half corn. But the steak was delicious! read more

I took my wife here the weekend after Valentine's Day since we weren't able to get in on Valentine's itself. Even though the place looked almost empty about 2pm, they told us it was reservations only, so we came back the following Saturday. Overall, it was a pretty good experience. My wife ordered the chicken enchilada flight and I had the carne asada tacos, and they both were good. The La Katrina margarita was excellent in flavor, but it was mostly ice and not much margarita for the price. I also tried the Mangonada margarita, which was just okay. We also got the queso Blanco, which was good and the a lot on the side, which was excellent. We'll probably give it another try to sample more items on the menu, but I can't say it's the best we've had. That said, our waitress was exceptional and really stood out with her service. Parking wasn't great. We later found out that the spaces marked "retail only" and "valet" are actually open to use since they don't offer valet service. It would have been nice to know that beforehand! For two people with tip came out to about $120. Could've had a lot better for around $75 at our other favorite place Gloria's where we normally go. read more

I made a reservation for my 36th wedding anniversary online and It asked me if I had a special occasion so I listed the anniversary. Everything was great, food, service and atmosphere.

Made reservations for Mother's Day breakfast/brunch and when we arrived, we were seated in the dark back room of the restaurant with all the other families with young children, while the front of house with tons of natural light was relatively empty and well staffed. We were also right next some kind of doorway for employees (not the kitchen) so there was constant traffic past our table. For being open at 9am, an hour earlier than their typical Sunday hours, for Mother's Day, the breakfast selection was minimal as they stuck with what I assume was their usual menu focusing on lunch and dinner items with a small brunch section. They also had no breakfast items for children and we were instructed to simply order "à la carte" from the main breakfast/brunch menu. We paid $6 for a single slice of French Toast and when a side of fresh fruit was also suggested for our 4 year old, it was not mentioned that it would come with a dusting of tajin. The server knew the fruit was for a child and failed to mention the tajin to us, or ask the kitchen not to add it to the fruit. My orange juice, while fresh, seemed heavily watered down even before the ice in it began to melt. For $17 the chips in my brisket chilaquiles were over cooked and there was only about five bites worth of brisket in the entire bowl. read more

The food was absolutely terrific. I did feel a little rushed considering the restaurant had almost zero other patrons. I will definitely be back again. My husband loved it, too. The food was fresh and light, reminded me of Baja style Mexican food, not Tex Mex, which is a relief. Super great night! read more

Mexican Sugar Plano - Tortilla soup - Mexican Near Me - Plano, Texas

Cute restaurant in a plaza of different areas. It kind of reminded me of La Encantada mall in Tucson Az. The host wasn't too friendly.We showed up without a reservation during a Saturday night. We knew there was going to be a wait.. we were fine with that. Rather than waiting she sat us right away but told us 3 times she needed the table at 8:15. Each time she was past by our table she would see how far we were with our meal. She even encouraged our server to check on us and try to rush us.. Overall the food was yummy! I got a mezcal flight. We all finished our food. The ceviche app was different from what I'm used to, it seemed to have more of a Peruvian / Colombian or something. Overall very flavorful and I ate it all. I do recommend this place for a night out. There were high schoolers who even celebrated their homecoming there dressed up. read more

We went to Mexican Sugar for Cinco de Mayo; we made a reservation about a week in advance and given how busy it was, were actually seated about 30 minutes after our reservation time. No problem, as one should assume days like Cinco de Mayo, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, etc., are all very busy. The food I ordered was just okay and a little spicy for my liking but it's my partner's favorite place so this is a "me and my taste" problem, not a restaurant problem. I want to say that James, one of the managers on duty, and our server, Zoe, did a terrific job handling all the busyness. Mexican Sugar had over 700 reservations and it was rather shocking how many people I overheard that were complaining and borderline yelling at James because they didn't have a reservation and were appalled at there being a three hour wait. Respectfully, if you didn't make a reservation at a Mexican restaurant on what is likely their busiest day of the year, that's on you and you should 100% expect that long of a wait. James fielded several of these complaints just while I was within ear shot waiting for my table, I can't imagine how many total he received. And Zoe was attentive, constantly checking on us, very friendly, and never appeared overwhelmed despite the volume of people. Just want to say thank you and give them recognition for how well they handled such a busy and chaotic day/atmosphere. read more

On top of that, the waiter was so accommodating and attentive, which really made the experience even better. read more

We had a 5:30 PM reservation and were seated immediately, but that's where the positive experience ended. We were not acknowledged by a server until after 6:00 PM -- and only after we had to go to the front ourselves to ask for one. We ordered right away. Thirty minutes later, our food arrived, but the tortilla soup was missing. Our server said he'd be right back with it, yet we didn't receive it until after we had finished eating and our table had already been cleared. read more
