Bacon cheeseburger
LeShea B.

Wednesday 6pmish First off- it isn't a drive thru. Get out and go in. Misnomer. $13 for a combo. Cash only. There is an atm there. I do not know the fee Bacon cheeseburger, mustard all the way. Fries. Canned soda or bottled water. I enjoyed my burger. It was seasoned well. Compared to BlackJack's burgers, I would choose Nubia's. I would return. Burger comes with jalapeños. Just ask them to remove them. They fell off on their own. Fries were ok. If they were a la carte, and an extra charge, I wouldn't order them. Saw a review about someone not feeling safe. It's the hood, but it's not even that bad. I felt safe. Staff friendly. Less than 15 min. Bathroom available.

Soooo good. Got the small mangonada, mango flower, and elote. Cash only. No dine in. But they will call your cell when your order is ready while you wait in your car.

They changed locations from where they were originally were (across the street) So, it took us a little while to realize. But, they were playing good music. I accidentally got drink that was a size too big for me and the mason jar had a BIG hole in it. But, they made me a new one with no problem. It tasted great and had an assortment of different candies. They also give you a complimentary shot if you have valid ID. I'm not sure what forms of payment they take, but I remember it being limited so be sure to call and ask before you get there.

Birria taco and a Rusa!
Yolanda H.

When you first drive up, you may want to second guess yourself, but DON'T!! The food is delicious and the cashier/waitress was super nice and very helpful with food selection! I truly wanted to order everything on the menu, but we settled for the birria tacos, elote, the (small) loaded carne asada nachos, and a Rusa! Everything was excellent!! We will definitely be back!!!

Snow cone  blue coconut and bubble gum
Lynda J.

I saw a post on FB said best burger I agree the burger was good! The birra tacos taste like pot roast no real flavor like I expected! Good portion of meat in taco , consume was ok! I will definitely be back for burger tho! Fries were bomb , i want to try with cheese sauce next time!

Three birria tacos with rice beans and corn.
Elonda C.

The best tacos I have had in a long time. I intended to take a before photo but could not stop eating. I had the Birria tacos with rice and beans. I also had the corn. My 2year old niece and I loved every bite. Next time I will try to take a before picture.

Pick roll ups & blue coconut snow cone (already had been drinking it)
Alyssa F.

I'm so glad I found this place!!! Friendly staff and tons of amazing menu items at a great price! The pickle roll ups are my favorite

Too much tajin

Michelada? More like over priced water with little Clamato and a ton of Tajín. Not defines what a michelada is for

Birra tacos
Raul C.

The best birra tacos in dfw talking bout a hot cheeto burrito look out and them hamburgers!

Lula S.

Sooo this is definitely a hole in the wall! I'm actually kind of shocked no one added it before but its a nice little place to take your drinks and elotes to go. They also have an assortment of mexican candies you can buy! My favorite is the elote with takis ($6) and the drinks are SO cute and come in lil mason jars that you get to keep. Drinks range from $10-$25ish for some menu items. OPEN LATE**** which is a plus, but it might not be an area you want to hang around in hehe ^.^ hope this helps! Will be back!!!

Small Watermelon

We went there on a recommendation from friends so we decided to try this place out. We ordered an Agua de Horchata, Small Mango, Elote, and Small Watermelon. The agua de Horchata is straight from the packet bought from the store and it's very watery. It's not made from scratch. The Elote is canned elote, it's not whole corn. The small mango is too sweet and taste like candy NOT REAL mango. The small watermelon again taste like candy. I was very disappointed.

Mangonada 1min after they gave it to me all melted with ice chunks.

Great ambiance. Seated on time with a reservation. Service was good although often hard to…read moreunderstand our waiter who mumbled a little bit. 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. Loved the decor near the restrooms and patio too.

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!

But first let me share how great it is Great service and vibe from All of the employees and management Great quality food Great interior decoration fair price So why only 3 Stars? Because, especially upstairs the light was Sooo dark, I actually needed to use my iPhone as a flashlight in one hand so to use the other hand to see the food and eat it. But that's not all... It was so extremely LOUD my wife and I had to SCREAM to communicate similar to what you might have to do at a Concert, Finally, the room was too cold, but that might be a personal point of view If you go there, it seems the problems were somewhat better if outside it on the main level We couldn't wait to leave as we ate fast even though there were so many good points about the place if I was blind AND deaf possibly Everything would have been perfect so as to not complain about the darkness and loudness (shrug) PS I took the picture at 7 using a photo-light for the picture, it is as not lit the way the picture gives you the impression, PLUS my table had No light at my table some had a slight wall light, better there but not great

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.

For those interested my original review is below, it wasn't even scandalous. I will not bother responding to the owner anymore so don't event bother responding sir. Original review: I really wanted to love this place, and I was so close to doing so. The good: the ambiance was cute and fun. Loved the decorations, the bar is big and takes up a lot of the area where some of the tables are making it a little crowded but that's not a big deal. They had a performer there that night and that was cool. The item we were so excited to try was the biggest disappointment, the chicharon! It looked so good but it was so bland and chewy. We thought it might have been undercooked and ordered another second and asked them to cook it longer but alas it was like chewing on nothing. And that is the common denominator with all the food here. It was so bland. The only item I enjoyed was the jalapeño and cheese sausage. The salsa was bland. The meats were bland. The chicken was overcooked and dry. The drink in the bowl was good. But other than that the meal was a disappointment which is truly sad because we were looking forward to the meal, and it was pricey too. Had the food been good we wouldn't have been bothered by the price. We needed some flavor that day.
