Always great at Mia's! Have been eating here for over 30 years. My wife "Mrs. Picky" says they have the best cheese enchiladas in Dallas. Be sure to ask for onions on top. I love the sour cream chicken enchiladas myself. All good!
This is my parents favorite. We always go when they visit. The photos are from 2 different trips. I went for breakfast and another time for lunch. All of it was amazing. They have amazing free chips and salsa. Staff is wonderful. I absolutely love this place.
This joint is quintessential Tex-Mex. Kitsch on the walls and a menu full of stuff that includes the same 3-4 ingredients. Cold, spicy salsa. Even colder bottled beer. The service here was great on my visit. The atmosphere, albeit a little crowded, was comfy. As I do with my first visit at any Tex-Mex joint, I order the combo plate. I was very pleased with it here. The taco was crunchy with nicely seasoned (non-greasy) ground beef and lettuce and cheese served on the side (I told them no tomatoes). The tamale had a wonderful brisket-like filling, although there was a little too much masa for me. The cheese enchilada was filled with actual cheese, which is a good (if not rare) thing these days. The chili con carne topping was wonderful, as was the rice -- which is among the most perfectly cooked that I have ever experienced in a Tex-Mex joint. The refried beans were run-of-the mill. I must say that the enchilada tortillas are firmer than most. Not necessarily bad, but they definitely don't par-fry these things before rolling. I tend to judge Tex-Mex joints by their salsa. If it's served warm, I take points off the board. This stuff is served ice-cold and has a wonderful bite. Bottom line: If I lived here, I'd be a regular. Excellent Tex-Mex.
Stopped by for dinner the service was just ok and the food was a little bland super loud in the diner chips were super hard no parking had to valet overall just ok
I came to Texas looking for Tex-Mex and Mia's did not disappoint. If you don't get anything else here you have got to try their brisket tacos! The service was excellent, he was very friendly and gave great recommendations in the menu. The salsa was home made and I wish I could've taken a jar home with me! I had one of the dinner specials and the chicken enchilada was really good! I also recommend the frozen mango margarita with tajin rim. Overall a great dining experience!
Great location off Lemmon Ave. the service was fast friendly and super polite. The food was hot and fresh and was a large portion. The prices were reasonable and they do have to go containers. I would recommend this location
I enjoyed my time at Mia's. The staff were very friendly starting at the valet and containing with our host and waitress. The ambiance inside is reminiscent of many classical tex-mex restaurants. We started off with a margarita along with queso and the complimentary chips and salsa. We then split the combo fajitas. Everything we had was good but I don't remember any of it being stand out. I appreciated the quick service, seating ability, and solid food at a reasonable price. Although I have had better fajitas/queso, Mia's is a great option for a casual Tex-Mex option and I would come back.
Wonderful time here. Love the welcome feeling once I enter. Wish more restaurants would be like this. Now this place is my go to place on the weekends. A special treat for myself. Keep up the great work.
The place is very casual and homey. Feels like you're in the comfort of your family's house. Cute signs all over the place paying homage to the loved ones that the restaurant is dedicated to. Service was great and very fast! I had the half order of nachos with beef fajita meat. The portion size was good! The food was just okay. Felt like it lacked flavor overall and I found a hair in my food at the very end. It wasn't bad but it probably isn't a place I'd jump to return to.
It's tasty! I was busy eating so I didn't get a lot of pictures. You walk in and it's first come first serve. We had a party of 7 and waited about 20 minutes the place was hopping. We were sat and ordered Margaritas (Duh!) The frozen had some floater and was tasty and yummy. We enjoyed. We ordered guacamole, it was creamy, fresh, and tasty. They give you chips and salsa which the group thought was a little spicy so like an above medium. I ordered fish tacos that came with veggies and rice and beans. The fish was chopped up and a little dry but the veggies were flavorful and seasoned. It's a good spot, fun vibe, and tasty!
I was told this is where you go to get the best brisket tacos in DFW and I have to say, Mia's did not disappoint. One warning is they do not have regular parking only valet parking. Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant was busy but we were seated quickly. It is clean and has a great atmosphere. Of course I ordered the brisket tacos and they are definitely the best brisket tacos I've had. The gravy that it's served with is absolutely delicious. Will definitely be back.
Mia's Tex-Mex -- Flavor. Vibes. Perfection. Let me just say... Mia's never misses! From the moment I walked in, the place had that lively Tex-Mex energy ... warm, welcoming, and full of that "you're about to eat good" feeling. I kicked things off with the Half-Order Beef Nachos (no beans) :crisp, cheesy, and layered just right. Add sour cream and jalapeños on the side, and you've got the perfect start. Then came the main event :the Combination #3 (because one version just isn't enough): Plate 1: Two beef enchiladas + one ground beef taco with rice Plate 2: Two beef soft tacos + one sunset beef enchilada with rice Every bite was packed with flavor & seasoned perfectly, hearty, and made with that authentic Dallas Tex-Mex love. Our server was friendly, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly ....major plus! Overall: Mia's is that spot for anyone who loves great food, good people, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay a while. Whether you're a local regular or just passing through go ahead and treat yourself. You'll thank me later. #TexMexHeaven #DallasEats #YelpEliteVibes #FoodieApproved
Came for dinner on a Tuesday to try their famous chile relleno. It was okay but was kind of disappointed. This was my first time having a chile relleno that out raisins and nuts inside which threw me off and I did not like this flavor. I usually love chile relleno but this one was not good to me.
Reviews are generally positive. People consistently praise the friendly, attentive service, flavorful, authentic food, and brisket tacos. The lively, homey atmosphere and margaritas are also popular.

It had been several decades since my last visit to Mia's Tex-Mex, and since my wife and I were in the 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! read more

Best camarones a la diabla I have ever had. Plus, amazingly well cooked and seasoned white rice and vegetables - which would normally be a throwaway anywhere else. AND, the server heated up fresh tortillas for me when I asked him for some on the side. SO. Good. White queso was perfect. Brisket tacos were fantastic; I didn't get them this recent visit but I've had them numerous times when I took out-of-towners here. Chips and salsa are also top notch. Service could not have been better. Portions are generous. I will come back here again when I am in the area. read more

Saturday evening, even with reservations we waited for 1 1/5 to be seated. That's was kinda annoying. Tight quarters with no where to wait. We had to stand the whole time with a baby. The service made up for it though....i guess The food came out hot and only 20 mins or so wait time. The brisket tacos where good but not all the hype 7/10 The beans were awful....burnt flavor 0/10 If we go back hopefully it will be a better experience. read more

I am updating my experience. I go here atleast once a month and generally have no issues. One time they gave me the wrong ticket, but fixed it. The other day however was not a good experience. My meal was 21.60 and I left a cash tip on table. A few days later I noticed I was charged almost 36.00. The waitress had put an almost 15.00 tip onto my card trying to be sneaky. In this area there are some wealthier people being by Highland Park and so she may had been getting away with it, but I check my statements. I usually have the same waiter so next time I'll ask for him and if I see the waitress I'll definitely let her know it's not ok to steal from people. Check your statements if you don't want to be stolen from. I did reach out to the manager and they reimbursed me. The attached picture is from another experience. read more
My favorite cute little Tex-Mex spot! There is always a wait here so I like to come at odd hours- early dinner time/late lunch. Service is super quick once you order. They have modelo on draft. The enchiladas are amazing. I get the combo sour cream chicken enchilada and brisket taco. You MUST try the Brisket Tacos here!!! read more

I've been away from TX for over 7 years now. FL MX food still lacks. TX MX food still rules! Mia's is simply the best! read more
Came with a friend for lunch and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. They offer valet for parking and upon entering we were seated immediately. Our waiter was attentive and provided recommendations on his faves from the menu. The food is brought out quickly so it makes for a good choice if you're on lunch and need to return to work timely. For drinks, I ordered a frozen strawberry margarita (sugar rim) and the drink was delicious! The guacamole dip was fresh and chips/salsa very good. I decided to go with the chicken fajita chimichanga topped with queso. The chimi was filled with chicken and bell peppers/onions! Rice, beans, sour cream, and guacamole came on the side. I rarely ever order chimichangas but I enjoyed it! My friend enjoyed his food as well! I will return to try out other menu items and drinks! read more

My daughter and I are visiting from out of state and wanted authentic Mexican food and chose Mia's. We noticed the nachos did not have a description of the food item, but we opted to order and share them. When the plate arrived it had 5 nacho chips with hamburger and melted cheese, a small slice of red onion and dollop of sour cream on the side. To say we were highly disappointed was an understatement. We paid $12 for 5 nacho chips and left dissatisfied read more
