    Piña colada was delicious!
    Yuri G.

    The food was very tasty on a Saturday morning and the music was just what I needed (Vicente fernandez). Service was great! As soon as you walk in, you feel welcomed.

    Molcajete tacos plate. Amazing.
    Travis H.

    Awesome place! The chips and salsa was amazing! This place was a bit busy and took a little long to get food but it was worth the wait! I got the molcajetes tacos and they were very flavorful. I asked for some hotter salsa and they brought me habanero sauce that was solid! I'll def b back!

    Took a bite. Top 3 tacos in DFW.

    Update. Went on a different occasion. Tacos were atrocious. Inedible. Very disappointed.

    Mejor cocinan en casa, cambiaron el menú los sábados y domingos 9-12pm. Estos platos son los únicos disponibles. Venimos por un caldo pa la cruda... mejor nos fuimos con unas micheladas. Las micheladas 10/10.

    Food is good, the prices could be better. Service is always 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 The esthetic is simple but cute Place is always clean Small bar area

    Hector was great! Fabulous service and the food was awesome! I had elote which was super yummy and a large serving and nachos which were great too! We also had mariachis singing to the table next to us. A little embarrassment, they asked if we wanted a song (I don't speak Spanish) and my friend said yes, sure and the lead guy said something a couple of times in Spanish and finally held out his hand and we realized we needed to give them cash (which none of the 4 of us had)! Ugggh! Felt sooo bad, but at least they hadn't performed for us yet! ‍ I wish I'd gotten a pic but it's good to know that if you ever run out of fake eyelashes...they have a video vending machine when you walk in with several styles, reasonably priced around $11! Also, can get some different lip sticks and glosses! Never seen that before!

    Chicken nachos  my favorite

    Love the atmosphere our first time here and service was great food was delicious and drink was on point.

    Tacos Ensenada
    Leanne G.

    We stopped in to satisfy a craving for tacos and discovered so much more. We started with drinks and guacamole. It is served in a molcajete with lots of mix-ins so you could make it as spicy or chunky as you'd like. We had the tacos molcajetes, tacos Ensenadas, and fajitas. The tacos were delicious! So flavorful. The fish in the Ensenadas was perfectly fried in a light batter that wasn't heavy but still nice and crunchy. The tacos molcajetes had a mixture of meat and veg, which blended so well together with different textures and savory flavors. Because the tacos were so full of flavor, it seemed like the fajitas were missing something but they were also quite good. The meat was cooked well. We would have loved more onions. The tortillas were delicious and tasted house-made. Highly recommended!

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.

I leave in another eight days to head back home, but I will definitely be making one more stop here before I leave Southlake. If you're in the area, please check this place out--you won't be disappointed!

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 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.
