Ojeda's - But I did take a picture of my drinks, hook em horns! - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Drink specials on Monday are awesome. The food came out very fast which was kinda scary. The guacamole I got on the side was not fresh and was over priced for the ant that was giving.. probably won't eat here again but I'll def go get drinks! read more

Our family stopped in as we were stuck in traffic, and decided to give this place a try. My father, had tried the one in Desoto and liked it. Service was wonderful. However, the food is very bland, and lacks seasoning. The rice was awful. The Guiso lacked flavor, and overly seasoned with cumin. The tortillas are STORE BOUGHT!! The ribeye fajitas were very tender, however, lacked seasoning. The prices did not reflect the quality of the food. Loved the music playing in the background. The decor was nice as well. I will not be returning to this location. read more

Been going to Ojeda's for many years and it is still a consistent treat. Love that you pour your own salsa from the pitchers on the table amd my all time fall back favorite is the Puffed Taco Dinner. Great! Prices are quite reasonable, service always quick and efficient and they have the best pralines in Dallas. Definitely recommended. read more

Ojeda's - busy for lunch - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I was rather impressed with the quality of service at Ojeda's. Our party of 15 called ahead to reserve a spot during lunch hour 10 minutes prior to arrival and they had the table waiting for us. The decor is unlike anything I've ever seen. Multi-colored Christmas lights were utilized for lighting in the dimly lit room. For it's location, Ojeda's has adequate parking spaces with a back lot for overflow. My only complaint is that two of us requested an item on the kid's menu and were refused. I understand this is company policy, but it was kind of a bummer because as a college student money talks. read more

Coming from a NYC background, I know I'm speaking as an outsider, here... but I don't see the appeal in mushy, multiple-fried, cheese-laden carbohydrate insanity. My husband enthusiastically took me here a couple of times (he loves the chile relleno), and I tried to hang in there with a good attitude... but it was our last visit that proved the mutual clincher. We were there with a couple of friends, and decided to go a little lighter on the food (if that's possible with this cuisine). Chicken tortilla soup seemed to fit the bill - a difficult one to screw up. Well... not ten minutes into the bowls, both of us - almost simultaneously - were struck with serious diarrhea. I mean nearly having to jog to the bathroom. Making a "run for the border" never rang so true. The crazy thing? The soup actually tasted fine - the only dish I've had at Ojeda's that satisfied! A shame that my stomach wasn't as pleased as were my taste buds... We haven't been back since. I've heard that the Oak Cliff location is cleaner/more reliable, but to be honest, I'm not terribly interested. There are far better Tex-Mex options in town. read more

Always pleased when coming here. Fast and friendly service, ideal for a quick good meal during lunch time. I absolutely love the sour cream enchiladas with the chicken flautas. Leaving with a huge food coma, if you are in the neighborhood and craving good ole Tex/Mex stop there. read more

Ojeda's - Tuesday special, Sour cream enchilada and chicken flauta! Yummy! - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Wow is all I can say!! Fastest service I've ever received, and the food was delicious! Also, they must have a great balance on their fountain drinks because our Dr. Peppers were really good! The pitcher of salsa on the table was a huge bonus because we are huge salsa fans. Will come back again!! read more

Great service, and decent food...nothing to write home about, but it was good for the price. Try the puffed taco. It's not really a taco, but it is tasty. read more

Ojeda's - A festive dining room! - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I used to be suggest this place to other. Now, I'm like "meh, food is okay". Nothing dazzles me at this place. It's used to be the chimichanga with beef. Now it nothing. I'm over it..... read more

Located in the shithole that is Maple Avenue, the tall iron gates that surround the restaurant and the armed security outside belie the quaint and friendly atmosphere inside. In my opinion, Tex-Mex is generally the same, so there's not much to say in that regard. The usual fare: tacos, burritos and enchiladas, all taste very good and are prepared quickly. The fajitas are also very good. Caveat: the salsa jars at the table generally contain their spicy salsa. I personally like it but it can take a non-spice eater by surprise. The staff is friendly, the bathrooms are clean. read more

Im from El Paso Texas where we have some great Mexican food restaurants living in a border city we experience the best of everything when it comes to Mexican food and Ojedas is on the top of my list great food and my 2XX was super cold. Excellent service and courteous staff. read more

Heard great things about this place. Came here got a puffed taco with I joke not, about a tablespoon of meat inside. Was so freaking hungry that I ate the small amount of rice and beans that came with the taco. I begun to think they gave me a child's meal. Ate chips and the salsa on the table. Salsa seemed strangely tangy, I should have questioned it's freshness since I had no idea how long it might have been sitting out. Ended up with terrible cramping and intestional distress and a missed day off work the next day. read more

This has to be my favorite (and family) Tex-Mex restaurant hands down! We are always seated promptly, our food and drinks are served quick. Love their chimichangas and fajitas!! We have been coming here for years, and my parents dated at this place when they first opened. We love this family friendly environment! read more

The prices were good, but does "Tex-Mex" just mean slightly Americanized Mexican food with not-so-fresh ingredients? My chile relleno was not a poblano chile, but rather a so-called banana chile. I definitely prefer a shorter, fatter poblano to a longer, thinner banana. The chile relleno was heavily breaded and greasy. I also had a sour cream enchilada, which was slightly better than one might expect at an American chain restaurant. I usually wolf down chips before a meal. The chips here were thin, very very slightly rubbery, and completely flavorless. Like I said, the prices are hard to beat and my $6.50 large margarita sated me, to certain extent. There are also some funky stories about how the grandmother who owned the chained was gunned down on the street, possibly by the Mexican mafia. How exciting! Oh, and President Clinton stopped here on a trip to Dallas. read more

Definitely a fan. So much so the employees probably talk about us because we come so frequently :-) If you're considering trying ojedas, just keep in mind it's definitely tex-mex. Nothing more, nothing less. The service here is always stellar, the food is consistent, and margaritas are really good. Oh, and it's very fairly priced. If you're in a rush, come here. Sometimes I'm amazed at how fast they bring out our food. Check out the ojedas dinner - it's enough food for 2 and the puff taco is amazing. read more

Located this place as it was close to my hotel. The neighborhood is a little "iffy", however this place has a fenced parking lot & a security guard watching your car. Inside it is decorated with bright lights hanging from the ceiling. The service here is amazing! Very friendly and fast! I ordered a spicy margarita which was outstanding. Spicy, but not over powering. Nice. The tortilla soup was ok. It is a broth style and I like the creamy style. However, the brisket tacos were great. Meaty, large portions and filling. read more

Try the Meltdown!!! If you think it's a little pricey, believe me it's well worth it!!!

This place is less than a mile from my apartment and I'd heard good things, so I was optimistic. I ordered over the phone and picked it up to eat at home. Over the phone and in person, the staff was very friendly and professional. We got a ton of food for only $30. We ordered 2 meals, an order of stuffed jalapeños and 2 sopapillas. Unfortunately, with each food that I tasted, I became more disappointed. To me, the jalapeños looked and tasted like frozen food that I could have picked up at Sam's. The sopapillas were a little dense. My enchiladas were smothered in a very Velveeta-like cheese. Nothing was repulsive and I ate enough to be full, but didn't keep my leftovers. I've spent most of my life in Houston and Austin. Maybe this is just one of those regional things that's more different than I expected it to be? At any rate, they were friendly, it was cheap and they're close, so I'm sure I'll be back. I just wouldn't go out of my way to recommend them to anyone. read more

So the food was so good I forgot to take a before picture! I had a swirl Sangria Margarita which was delicious! The environment was dim with Christmas lights hanging from the ceiling to give a romantical touch. If you want a friendly waiter and up best music this place is it! We will definitely be back! read more

Ojeda's - I had beef fajitas with a chicken enchilada #amazing - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

See all

Ojeda's used to have the best refried beans in town - primarily because of the inclusion of bacon fat in recipe. Now bacon fat has been removed, leaving refried beans like every other Tex-Mex restaurant; i.e. bland and destined to be left uneaten on combo plates or nachos. Too bad because ambience and most other selections and service are always good. read more

Great food and efficient service! We never needed for anything. The food come out quickly and was made exactly as ordered! We will definitely return to this location. If you're looking for a tex-mex place that won't disappoint, this is the place! read more

If you're looking for a place to eat Tex-Mex, this is the place. If you are looking for Mexican food, go elsewhere. I'm not a fan of tex-mex and over the years I have had it due to choices others make for dinner plans, and any other place is better than Ojeda's. The salsa is more like tomato sauce, no flavor at all. I ordered the sour cream chicken enchiladas, and in no way was that sauce a sour cream based sauce. Dine elsewhere. read more

On my visit to dallas I was brought here in recommendation of my cousin, in glad we stopped into this little spot. I ordered a cup of coffee which tasted freshly brewed and nice and hot. I was in the mood for brunch and they had a good selection. I decided to go with huevos rancheros with carne asada. It was such a delicious choice, my cousin also decided to give it a try. He did mention he had been here quite a few times and had never ordered it. But i must say we're both glad we did. The meat itself was nice and tender and the eggs were really good as well. Everything blended so well together that at the end of the meal we were so glad we did. The service was excellent. The waiter was very attentive at all times and made it known that he was there for our needs. I will definitely be back to this place when I am in dallas. read more

I love Ojeda's!! Best menudo in town served on Saturday and Sundays. Great drinks,love the atmosphere,staff is super friendly menu is large with a great variety. read more

Ojeda's is a cozy and simple Tex-Mex restaurant. They have a good variety of foods on their menu, but nothing really stands out and grabs you off the menu. I like their options of getting a half or full order on a lot of things, though. I got a full bean burrito and it didn't come out as a bloated tortilla stuffed with beans. It was split up into three normal sized tortillas with refried beans and a side salad. This was great for portion control and kept me from getting beans all over myself, haha. That being said, this was a very no frills burrito - tortilla + refried bean paste. The salad was lettuce, tomato, and shredded cheddar cheese. So not my favorite meal. However, they DO have some great drinks that really pack a punch. I had a swirled sangria margarita, and it went a long way, let me tell you. You can order a large or small sized drink, just like their plates. They have a rule on their menus that won't allow you to order more than three large drinks with a meal or more than one large drink without a meal so that speaks to the amount of alcohol they put in these. I'd definitely recommend this place for happy hour, but maybe save the dinner for somewhere else. read more

Love it. A fun atmosphere, margaritas and several vegetarian options. Really love the salsa. Nice people too.

This is by far one of the VERY BEST Mexican restaurant in Dallas. I have been eating at this place since moving Dallas. Make sure you visit he one on Maple. Drinks are strong and cost of food is perfect. read more

My partner too me to Ojedas to give it a try. I have to say the atmosphere was great. It reminded me of many Mexican restaurants in Los Angeles, I am from L.A., so it was a good change. The food i have to say was very authentic. The do offer Tex-Mex. but the plate that I had, eggs and chorizo, to me was pretty darn good. The potatoes on the plate were fried and chip liked shaped. They were amazingly good. My partner had the chicken tortilla soup and i had a sample and it was pretty tasty. The chicken had obviously been pulled off the bone. Yum! I do look forward to going back to eat more. Our server was extremely nice and kept checking on the fills of our drinks and our satisfaction. read more

Love their spicy salsa and the enchiladas! Drinks are really good too! Great place to go for lunch time if your in the area. Food comes out really quick. read more

Very basic tex mex food but also really salty. I got a pretty basic dish but I didn't even bother taking home leftovers as the meat was like eating a salt-lick. read more

Always great food. Tex mex... quick ... you get your on bottle of salsa so you can pig out. It is a staple of Maple!

Good food. I would compare it to good like on the border. I really liked the decorations and the lighting. We sat outside in the patio. The patio could be a little bigger. And I really didn't like the parking. It's not so organized but then again it's a busy area so I understand you can't control the crazy amount of people trying to park. Overall, if I was in the area, I'd stop here again read more

This place is great! The ambiance is great for date nights and the pricing is very fair! I'm not sure how much alcohol is actually in the margaritas but they're decent! read more

I absolutely love Mexican food and tried Ojeda's for the first time last week. The queso and chips are great but the salsa here is a wee too vinegary. I had the enchilada de fajita verdes. It was okay but next time I think I'll try something without the spinach. The menu at this place is huge. There's so much to choose from it makes you want to return. It gets busy here even during the week so get there fast. read more

Had beef enchiladas with fresh onions on top rice and beans not bad but had better;) Would come back again and try something else..;) read more

Another Texmex staple in Dallas. This is not one of my favorite places to go but it's fine every once in a while. You can get the enchilada special on Wednesday for under $6. The chips are really thin and the salsa is kind of sweet. The refried beans are good though. Tortillas taste homemade and are served nice and hot. Service has always been pleasant. read more

I've been in a few times through the time I've lived in Dallas. Today wasn't the best experience we've had here. We were sat in the bar area which is actually great, it turned out to be happy hour so they gave us a happy hour menu with their regular dining menu. The waitress who was very nice at first came over to take our drink order... While looking down at the happy hour menu we order the margarita on the rocks for each of us. We then ordered food which was great and continued to get a second margarita since it was still happy hour and we still had 5 mins to get that order in until it ended. Well it turns out she thought we wanted "the regular" margaritas the whole time! She went on to tell us that "we didn't specify which one we wanted" so she brought us the regular one which turned out to be a LARGE! Are you kidding me! If you are handing out happy hour menus to your guests that's what you should be charged for!!! She says "well, I don't know what I'm gonna do since you didn't tell me what you wanted and continues to say "well I didn't ask you either" I've been in the service industry loooong time, and you should just do that right thing! Needless to say if she would have done the right thing she would have gotten a %20 tip. The bill comes and we were charged for large margaritas the whole time. I got the bill went to the front to pay it and told them FYI, I'm not tipping your waitress today and she knows exactly why! Good day! Lol. Oh and the chips and salsa are always the worst here! read more
