We went to Muchacho for the first time in June 2026, having been told about this place a while back. Sleeping on that suggestion made us feel like morons after coming here. Dakota took great care of us the minute we were seated. His attention, professionalism, and friendliness makes him stand out in the service industry. He told us before we even ordered that we would be back and that we could ask for him in the future. He was right. We will be back and we will ask for him. The food was incredible. Chips with two delicious salsas came out first. The green tomatillo salsa was our fave, but the red also delivered. We split an order of delicious empanadas for a starter. The hearty empanada shell contained a surprisingly tender picadillo enhanced by avocado and some crema. Hands down delicious. For our main, we spilt the octopus fajitas. These were extraordinary. The meat was tender and perfectly marinated, not chewy or rubbery at all. The tortillas were made in house and also not too thick or heavy. I recommend having the octopus as close to Spanish style as you can with just the grilled onions and peppers in the taco you make. No cheddar cheese or sour cream, please. The menu read like a treasure chest of Mexican food and we will be back, providing Dakota is working and able to have us over for dinner. Thank you, Muchacho for an excellent first experience.
Great service! Love the inside...tons of different seating. We sat on the covered porch that was enclosed, not too hot and did get some a/c. It was nice as it wasn't freezing like most places in TX when it's hot, which is most of the time. Large selection of drinks! Get the empanadas! They are very flaky and tasty. I had the redfish tacos with slaw on it. There are 3 good sized tacos with the slaw on top. It's light slaw so it's not overpowering. Would come back again!!
Came here on a rainy Saturday evening and was able to find parking close by. We put our names down at 7:08 and were told a 45-minute wait, but we almost left and ended up staying, our table was ready in 8 minutes. That's a pretty big difference, and I feel like giving such a wide estimate can lose them customers. We were seated in their outdoor covered area and Dakota was our server. He was great and really made the dining experience better. He gave solid recommendations on food and timing for ordering. We started with chips and two types of salsa , classic tomato and a verde. Both were flavorful. The chips tasted fresh with big pieces, though some were saltier than others. For food, we got the classic queso to start, then cheese enchiladas with mole sauce (no onions) and chile con carne enchiladas. The mole was really flavorful, refried beans were good, and the rice was fluffy. I didn't have a drink, but the house margarita on the rocks and grapefruit margarita were both enjoyed, I tried a sip of each and they were strong. Overall, I'm glad to have found a solid Tex-Mex option in the area. Southlake Town Center is also nice to walk around before or after dinner.
We had a wonderful time at Muchacho Southlake, a cozy spot inside the Town Square area. Highly suggest getting reservations; they have a limit of 6 but will make exceptions, as they did for us. A lively crowd--this wasn't a quiet spot, more a night-on-the-town vibe, plenty of folks having a good meal and time. The food was fabulous, and everyone enjoyed their meal. The service by Ryan was attentive & surprisingly quick. I had the Cornmeal Redfish tacos with the pickled slaw on homemade tortillas, all very good. Others had pork shank, fajitas, chili relleno with rice and beans, and they all loved it. The standouts were the Mexican rice and Old Fashioned; both were as good as I've had anywhere. The rice, just like Abuela would serve you. After the meal, Paul the owner came and checked on us. Really nice touch to finish off the night. We passed on dessert, a group choice, certainly not mine.
Food is always good, I typically order fajitas or mole enchiladas. I also highly recommend their green pozole. Recently tried their shrimp tacos, and they were okay but I prefer their steak fajitas and tacos. I was also not a fan of their brisket sopes, a bit too much masa for my preference. My sister has a food allergy and every server we've had is always super accommodating and takes time to ask kitchen staff about any dish she's interested in having. The atmosphere is noisy, but in a nice way. Super chatty and good music. We come a few times a month and we're never disappointed!
We tried Muchacho's tonight and it was really good! The wait to get in was about 45 minutes, but it was definitely worth it. I had the Ahi Tuna Taquitos and these things were small but mighty! They were seriously the tiniest little tacos, but they delicious. I would absolutely order them again as my meal because they were that good. The sauce that came with them was amazing and really tied everything together. My husband ordered the Suadero tacos and they were delicious too. The flour tortillas were on point, the brisket was cooked perfectly, and everything inside worked really well together. The borracho beans on the side were also great. We lucked out with a beautiful Texas spring evening and got seats on the patio, which we really enjoyed. It's a cute patio with super comfortable chairs, and it's a great spot to watch the passerby's. Service started a little slow, but once we ordered the food came out quickly and everything tasted so delicious. Another Saturday night trying somewhere new and this is definitely one we'll go back to!
Service attentive but not overbearing, atmosphere, location, and ambiance is totally Texan and modern at the same time. Restaurant is a corner piece in a trendy snd upscale shopping center in Southlake Texas. They have a lovely patio when the whether is nice enough to open it up too. Try a spicy margarita or a cold beer. If your a wine lover they dont leave you out either. I suggest the pork belly fajitas or the shrimp tacos, but any protein and meat from Muchachos is grilled well and flavorful while letting the meat taste shine through. Do NOT LEAVE without their famous Tres Leches cake. Trust me. You will NOT be sorry. With lots of options in Southlake, Muchachos is a staple and local favorite for intimate dinners or large parties.
Great spot for great food and beverages. Service was awesome even though it was quite busy. Western ambience. Tomatillo salsa and chips very addictive. Suadero Tacos were delicious with smoky flavors. Margaritas also tasty.
We really just came here for a margarita and some nachos. What a surprise to us when the nachos were only five chips. That was sad. Margarita was good. But I was very surprised by how much they had gone up in just the last couple of years.
Muchacho is consistently one of our favorite TexMex option in DFW. This is owned by the same group as Whistle Britches and intricately appointed with western motif & vaquero accessories with exposed brick & cattle skins throughout. We have been to around 20+ TexMex restaurants in DFW & Muchacho's steak fajitas are hands down the best I've ever had up against Pappasito's, Gloria's, Mi Cocina, La Hacienda Ranch & similar. The flap steak cut of meat they use is superior to most & the mantequilla Mexican butter(similar to Pappasitos) is delicious. The Happy Hour menu is nice with discounted appetizers & drinks. Favorites are the nachos with steak & the Ah Mamí(mango) & Ah Papí(prickly pear) margaritas (frozen or rocks with black salt or tajín). If you're feeling boujie or fancy yourself a tequila snob the more pricey margaritas are worth a try especially the ginger infused. Chips & salsa are solid with smoky roja salsa & tangy verde. Guacamole comes topped with pepitas and toasted garlic chips. Service is typically better than what you get at Whistle Britches & usually managers are walking around to fill in any gaps during weekends. The only thing I wish is that the venue was larger as it does fill quickly on weekends & can get loud if in the main dining area or bar. Patio seating is nice when weather cooperates. The deserts are passable but don't live up to the entrees. Overall favorite place for beef fajitas.
Wife and myself came here on a Sunday to meet up with my son and his gf. Got the table no problem to try out their lunch. The 2 things I have to say is their location is perfect in the middle of southlake. But hard to find parking on street, but garage is only a block away. And their service by our waitress was one of the best in some time. As far as food goes, the prices is a tad higher than average Mexican restaurant we've had, so I automatically had a higher expectation. There's really nothing bad on any of the food, other than the portion and lack of anything distinctive to say I can't wait to come back again. We've all ordered something different, but I got the combination to try out different things. The beans weren't bad, but the rice was dried and bland. Other enchiladas and others were just ok. Again, the service by out waitress is very professional, and the manager also walked around to greet each table, which was a nice touch. But even with the great location (used to be snuffer) and service, 3 stars is about the max I can described this experience.
Muchacho is great simple and low budget lunch dinner option in Toyota Music Factory area. They have great patio and serve so amazing drinks. The place serves some amazing tacos like Al pastor ,Birria. The consome is amazing. You can order individual tacos or plates of 3-4 with side of rice and beans. They have shareable apps like chips and queso or nachos as well. The food comes fast and they offer different salsas. You have love spicy you have to try their hot salsas it will knock you out. The food is fresh and casual. The service is excellent The place is no frills and very fast food style
We love Muchacho's! It's the perfect place for a girl's night or a date night. The food is always delicious, the drinks are always perfect, and the vibe is always on point! Thank you Paul and Ryan!

Muchachos in Southlake is definitely a spot I can't wait to visit again! We started with the brisket hash, featuring brisket that's smoked for 8 hours, and it was absolutely delicious. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and the perfect addition to the dish. We also tried the shrimp and steak fajitas, and everything was seasoned perfectly. The homemade tortillas were a standout and made the fajitas even better. You can really tell there's care put into the food here. For drinks, I really enjoyed the Serene-Tea mocktail. The margarita mocktail wasn't my favorite, but the Serene-Tea was so good that it made up for it. read more

Muchacho is our favorite place. Best margs, food, service, and environment. We went on a Friday night to celebrate my birthday and it was packed! You definitely need a reservation for busy days/times and you'll have no problem. We ordered our drinks and I'm not kidding they were at our table 3 minutes later. Steak and shrimp fajitas are 10/10. Our server was great and attentive! To top it all off they gave me a signed birthday card from the staff and flan. I would always recommend Muchachos!!! read more

This was the third time we have visited and just as good as the first. We sat in the patio on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Arrived just in time for the happy hour 2-6 EVERY DAY! I had the chicken enchiladas (they have a different name there ). Delicious and tender chicken. We really enjoy their fresh chips and the two salsas that they serve. Our waiter was great. And the happy hour swirl margarita was spot on! Definitely put this place on your list to try and come back to. read more
Shout out to Alberto who made our time very much enjoyable! I wanted some good fajitas and stumbled on Muchacho a couple times during my search so I met with my sister on a Friday around lunch time. Muchacho is spacious with rustic charm, located directly behind Cheesecake Factory. We were immediately seated and started with the lunch dip sampler which comes with queso and guac. Not my favorite queso, kinda basic in taste but the guacamole was some of the best I've ever had and I surprisingly really enjoyed the pepitas on top. I decided on the angus flap steak and chicken breast fajitas and sis ordered the picadillo hard shell tacos. That fajita sizzle always gets me amped and these looked especially good along with the accoutrements I was ready to dig in. I will say, the quality of the fajita meat was great, tender, moist but unfortunately lacked flavor, they were good but not great and for the price($24) I expected way more. My sis said her tacos were passable but again nothing great. I ordered a tres leches to go but as I write this review about 2 weeks after I visited Muchacho , I honestly don't remember how it tasted so do with that what you will. This place was to pricey for just ok food, but again our server Alberto was awesome, very attentive and super friendly. It wasn't terrible but I don't see myself returning. read more

Everything I ordered was fresh and delicious. I enjoyed the atmosphere, service, food, and beverages. The only downside is the pricing. I've noticed Tex-Mex has become more expensive over the past few years in general. On the upside, you'll leave happy with your overall experience here. read more
