My son in law went to pick up food from here. There was a bag sitting on the counter (it was our food). He asked the bartender if that was his and he said,"no". 15 minutes later he told him that it was his food! The food was cold and the steak was raw. The boys didn't eat any of it. We paid $200 for fajitas and a salad. The salad was good. We called to complain and the girl who answered the phone obviously didn't know what to say or care much. Someone did call my daughter back but since she ordered through DoorDash there wasn't much they could do. It was not worth $200 regardless, especially when it was inedible. Probably would not try it again and not for this price. Maybe it's better if you eat there.
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.
I ordered the suadero tacos to go which came with rice and beans. I also got chips and salsa. The brisket was really good and flavorful. I did have to remove some of the grilled onions. There was a lot. If you're an onion lover, you'll be in heaven.
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.
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.
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.
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
Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the attentive and friendly staff, fresh and flavorful food, a lively atmosphere, and popular drinks.

This place was great!! We had a big party but they got us in quickly and were super friendly when they greeted us!! AMBIANCE: Hey, what can I say, it looked like a good Mexican/Tex-Mex restaurant. Very clean and lots of colors!! SERVICE: Like I said, super friendly, but also very attentive. We were able to order our food timely and they checked on us often. FOOD: Wow, the fajitas are their specialty and they did not disappoint. Their Pepitos Salad was also yummy. And, of course their chips and salsa/guacamole were necessary and a tasty start. read more

The environment was on point! Loved the lighting and decor. Very tasteful! Food was super amazing! I got a classic margarita which was pretty strong (in a good way). The service was great! Our server was very nice. I will be returning! It's a great place to get Mexican Cowboy vibes! read more
This location is really nice and a great vibe and feel, catered to families and travels and business people alike. Drinks looked good but we didn't order any, but our food was very good along with the chips and guacamole. I had the brisket tacos with corn tortillas and it was very tender and juicy, the rice was delicious and the beans were tasty. I ordered guacamole too for my tacos but it was probably not necessary as they put an avocado slice on each taco. My colleague had the fajitas with steak and shrimp and it looked great she polished off her food. Great texture mex option in the town square area read more

Went here for a work party! I want to say the service was absolutely amazing. The drinks were great. I took a risk and got the ribeye carne asada and it was just okay. Definitely go the traditional route with tacos and enchiladas. read more

We were visiting Texas and were told that we had to come try this place out. You know you're off to a good start when the chips and salsa's are good. First off don't let the wait scare you off, they said it would take 40 minutes for a table it only took about 25. We ordered the steak and chicken fajita's for 4 it came with generous sides of rice, beans and all the fixings. The meats were cooked and seasoned to perfection. I would definitely recommend you try them read more

Unfortunate turn of events with a thunderstorm and getting stuck in Dallas for the night turned into finding a great spot. Checked into the Westin Southlake and discovered the Southlake Town Center across the freeway, short shuttle ride over and landed at Muchacho. Eased up the bar and immediately greeted by friendly bar staff. In classic recon fashion I had already eyed the menu before leaving the hotel room, and decided it was going to be fajitas! I asked for chips and salsa, got both red and green. These were not your ordinary "out of the jar" salsas, both were really good with some decent heat. 9/10 for the chips and salsa alone. Now I go to order my fajitas and as always I ask for medium rare on the meat temp. Typically with most places the steak used in fajitas leaves little room for a proper med-rare cook, but here at Muchaho it's more like a 1/2" thick flank steak cooked and sliced. The cook was PERFECT, exact temp I like with good seasoning and char on the outside. The shrimp were no slouches, large, well seasoned and cooked as well. Tortillas you say, ready for another treat. They are fresh hand made to order flour, just how i love them. Super fresh, hot, and soft! Overall, highly recommend if you are a single and just sitting at the bar, will definitely return if in the Southlake area again in the future! read more

We came for happy hour and asked to sit at a booth in the bar and the hostess told us we had a 1 and half hour time limit. Not sure why they would limit how long a patron could be there. Besides that the food and service is pretty good and consistent with this being our 3rd time. The margs are small and pricey for $17 each but taste good so be prepared to splurge. The happy hour prices are much better and is Monday-Sunday 2-6. read more

The tortilla chips were good, but the salsas were okay compared to other Tex-Mex spots in Dallas. Same goes for the enchiladas, thought they were okay. The ambiance of the place was nice, lots of families and people. There was a short wait time to be seated. There is outdoor and indoor seating. Service was good, and the owner constantly checked up to make sure we had everything we needed. read more

Stopped in for a last mixture dinner. The menu to me doesn't have a ton of options but sometimes simple is better. The empanadas were so good I almost ordered a second batch. Honestly all the food was good even the salads and queso.The drinks though not pictured were excellent. Service was great and it's not super big in the inside. Definitely gives off intimate setting vibes. The lights are down low which I always. We will for sure come back. read more
