    Best service received! The staff is very accommodating. Helped us pick a relaxing sofa side. Food was great. We had the Tacos Habana and Tacos Brisket. I personally liked Habana (chicken). We also had their Fajita which was exceptionally yummy. The server on duty was super cool, knowledgeable and friendly. He even gave us a bag of tortilla chips as we were marching out. My 1 year old boy had a great time there too- we ordered for him their regular Mexican rice; they were a bit salty for him but he was truly enjoying it lol. Definitely go again

    Amazing food! Mi Cocina is located on the first floor inside the Galleria Dallas, in front of the ice skating rink. I ordered the Tacos de Brisket ($18.25) and chocolate tres leches ($9.95). Got complementary chips and salsa. The brisket taco was super delicious. Just meat and cheese in tortilla. Came with rice and salad. Rice was super good as well. The chocolate cake was not so good. The bread was soggy as if it got defrosted and the water seeped into the cake. The texture was not firm. Would recommend if you want really good mexican food.

    I was totally impressed with this restaurant! Inside a mall can always be questionable but not this location. Amazing service, the food was incredible and real food. We had a huge party and was seated quickly and had the best service! Even the prices were reasonable. Even in the mall the atmosphere was great. I would not skip on Mi Cocina!

    Mi Cocina is a go-to spot for flavorful Tex-Mex dishes in a vibrant and lively setting. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is welcoming and energetic, making it a great choice for a fun night out with friends or family. The brisket tacos were the highlight of my meal--perfectly seasoned and tender, paired with their signature chips and salsa, which were fresh and addictive. The tamales were another standout, with just the right balance of spice and flavor. One thing to note is that the restaurant can get quite busy during peak hours, which means longer wait times for seating and service. The noise level can also be on the higher side, so it may not be the best option if you're looking for a quieter dining experience. Pros: * Delicious, well-prepared Tex-Mex dishes * Friendly and attentive staff * Lively and fun atmosphere Cons: * Can get busy with longer wait times * Higher noise levels during peak hours

    queso was yummy. the beef changa was lacking flavor and only had plain beef in it. the service was phenomenal our drinks were never empty. also was greeted right when walking in. the location is nice in the mall overlooking the skating rink.

    During girls shopping day we usually stop here for snacks and drinks. The food is standard MiCocina quality. Hanging out by the skating rink is a pretty cool feature. There is generally enough room for us and our bags without making it awkward. Our usual order to go with the chips and salsa is queso and flour tortillas. The bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer is another one of our favorites. I wouldn't go out of my way to come to this location but if you're shopping in the Galleria and want to have a Tex-Mex meal, come try it out.

    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.

    LOVE this place. God bless the people who came up with Las Palmas…read more First of all, please never change the queso- it is heaven sent and we always take it to-go (I'm NEVER leaving the rest behind) and it tastes even better the next day. This queso is probably the best I've ever had. BTW it is a LIL spicy but I can let that slide. Another great appetizer option would be the Nachos Al Carbon with wagyu. Super good too & honestly you can even order it for just one person as a main dish-- the serving size is big enough. BUT THE REAL STAR OF THE SHOW AT LAS PALMAS ARE THE WAGYU FAJITAS!!! Incredible. Comes with flour or corn tortillas, beans, rice, and obviously the works: sour cream, guacamole, lettuce. You know the vibes. Speaking of vibes, they're always there at Las Palmas. It is always busy but I genuinely don't care and never mind waiting an hour and a half for our table. It's worth it. This place is a confirmed staple in Dallas. Probably come here once a month if not more often. Thank you for great food and good service too- that's hard to come by nowadays. TRY THIS PLACE OUT! This is your sign!

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.

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!

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.
