    A2. Dumplings
    Dustin U.

    This is the very best Chinese food in all of Dallas! My girlfriend and I have searched high and low for a good place to get Chinese, and she had given up hope. She and I both really enjoyed this place. The fact they have both Mexican and Chinese is awesome too, because I like Chinese a lot more than she does. Its definitely a find, and it's super cheap to boot! The dumplings had ample meat, and the dipping sauce was delicious. The egg drop soup was thick, with large amounts of egg. I was surprised at how much soup there was. The beef with broccoli had tender and juicy beef, with crisp fresh vegetables. The rice was a bit sticky, in a good way. The sesame chicken was sweet, with just the right amount of breading. The noodles were good, not greasy, or slimy at all. The tacos were surprisingly good too! I mean, tacos from a Chinese Restaurant? My expectations weren't very high, but they were pretty good! Uber Eats has the most comprehensive menu and lowest fees as of today.

    I was kind of hungry, spent $24 getting everything that sounded good so let me start from the top. The crab Rangoon filling was delicious, only problem was there wasn't much of it in the middle of the fried dough, if it was stuffed a little more it would have been amazing. I bought a dragon/Phoenix which is just sesame chicken and sweet and sour chicken half and half because I couldn't decide which one I wanted. The sesame chicken was awesome, crunchy but not dry, perfect amount of sauce 10/10, the sweet and sour chicken was hard, the sweet and sour sauce couldn't save it. Got an extra side of lo mein because it's my favorite, I would recommend skip it, didn't taste like much. The fried rice was included in the dragon Phoenix dinner so it was just a regular side of fried rice, not bad at all. And because again I must have been starving when I ordered this I got a side of sugar biscuits, I LOVE sugar biscuits, these did not disappoint, I wish though that they would sell like a serving of three because me by myself I can't eat all of those. I'll try, but I can't. Lastly the aguas frescas....it was more water than fruit but I'd probably order it again. All and all this is pretty good Chinese food, I'd order again.

    I've passed by this place so many times, it's down the street from my house. I was craving some orange chicken and this spot came up. I decided to give it a try. I called ahead and they said my order would be ready in 10 minutes. It took me 5 minutes to get there and by the time I arrived, my order was ready. The Orange Peel was so good. I'll definitely be coming back to try other dishes.

    Over cooked noodles and no taste also looks like it was thrower up first time trying this place out and do not recomend

    Some shrimp dish
    Kavaragu M.

    Ordered fried rice, a shrimp dish, garlic sauce vegetables, and sesame chicken. The sesame chicken was soggy. The shrimp dish was half onions (see photos). The fried rice was actually steamed rice with soy sauce poured over it. The reason I didn't give less than three stars is because the portion sizes are great. They did have plain lo mein as the side to the shrimp dish and that was the most flavorful item ordered. The vegetable dish was unexplainable and not really any discernible vegetables in the dish. I ordered delivery so I don't have a better overall experience to share than the taste of the food.

    This is my 2nd time to order from them via UberEats. I will be only ordering from them for my Chinese food cravings. First of all they are very attentive to your special requests even calling me to clarify one of mine rather than just doing what is easiest. I don't usually get fried rice but their portions are huge as well as their main dish portions. Their hot and sour soup is wonderful. No canned button mushrooms here. The sauces they have with the dish is always thick and super tasty. Their egg rolls are the thinner & extra crispy kind, not the bumpy ones. So good. The prices are great and especially for the portion sizes. I do recommend that you try them. Don't let the fact that they have Mexican and Chinese food in the same spot deter you. It's all delicious. There are so many little gems in Oak Cliff. Give them a try! The picture is of Mongolian Beef on the left and Kung Pao chicken with no peanuts (yes, i'm weird not allergic) on the right. And a small hot & sour soup.

Her knowledge of her craft, warm personality, and thoughtful recommendations made us feel truly welcomed and valued. It's rare for me to give an establishment a perfect score, but this one has earned it without hesitation. 10/10--an exceptional dining experience and the perfect place to celebrate life's special moments. Thank you to the entire team for making our anniversary so memorable. We can't wait to return!

It will definitely be one of the first places I think of for a date night!

A few important notes though: this place is SUPER loud, especially upstairs, so if you are trying to take your older parents somewhere for a nice dinner where you can actually catch up and have a conversation, this might not be the spot. Also, avoid the upstairs dining room if anyone has mobility issues. The stairs are a little sketchy in that dark space because you basically have to TRUST there is another stair step in front of you even though you can't see it. And a heads up, do not wander into the wrong bathroom upstairs like my husband did because the "men's" and "ladies" signs upstairs are also nearly impossible to read in the dark! But honestly, those are really my only complaints... The service and food were both very good. We had a couple of ordering fumbles. We got the regular queso, and then immediately watched another table get the tableside flaming queso and we were seriously bummed. Like, really bummed. That is definitely what I will be ordering next time. The chips and smoky salsa were excellent!! - and I always appreciate when everyone gets their own little portion of salsa so everyone can double dip without feeling like a heathen. I ordered the wagyu fajitas (the half portion), and it was still easily enough food for two people. I will say the meat was more like a filet mignon texture and less like the flavorful fajita meat I was expecting. My friend's pork fajitas were actually much better and had more flavor. When the manager stopped by to check on us, I had to announce my own birthday because apparently my friends were not going to help me out with that (some friends, huh?). They brought out a complimentary sopapilla cheesecake with a candle, which was a very nice touch. All in all, I loved the place and totally understand the hype. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time. There is valet parking, but we found easy parking across the street. I cannot wait to come back and try that flaming queso!

    LOVE this place. 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!

    Came in on a whim on a Friday night around 9pm with no reservation. We were instantly taken aback…read moreby the ambiance here. My wife and I agreed it felt like we were back in Mexico City. Chris our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took his time walking us through the menu and explaining what made El Carlos Elegante so special. The drinks were perfect. My wife loved her Desert Flor while I thoroughly enjoyed my Modelo Micheleda. Her Surf and Turf one hitter was exceptional. I have to say my Crab Cake was just ok. It tasted a little pasty and very heavy on the bread. The Pulpo was absolutely amazing. Perfect texture and the sauce it was served almost had me licking the plate. The El Machete was incredible from its presentation, to the freshness of the corn tortilla, to the quality of the meat inside. Definitely recommend this. We really liked our Okra + Shishito course, we just wished it had more okra in it. The two things I loved about the Al Pastor was of course the sauce it was served on but the fact that I got to enjoy it like a steak. It was served sliced on a bias like flank steak. Typically Al Pastor is finely chopped and served in tacos and burritos, so this was a different eating experience for me. And of course it was delicious as well. We cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu.

    I've been here twice. Everything we ordered was very good both times…read more During our first visit, I had the Caesar salad, which I declared at that time "the greatest Caesar salad I've ever tried." It was glorious and bountiful--there was ample dressing, cheese, and other ingredients I'm forgetting that made it unique. Unfortunately, during our second visit, the Caesar salad was significantly different. I think they used the same dressing, but there was very little of it. There was nearly no cheese and the other ingredients were similarly sparse. It was still good, but it in no way was the greatest I'd ever tried. I hope that this was a 1-off experience, as it truly was the best. I will report back next time. Service was great both times- they were very careful about my Cilantro request (none) and even though they gladly prepared dishes without it, they also made a list of things that already had none by default. Salmon ceviche, Pork al pastor, Carne asada, and the machete were also very good. The machete is a specialty- it had the house made masa and fillings can vary.
