Burrito

I decided to give this place a try because it's right next to my apartment, and my expectations were low, but I never expected to receive a plain white rice burrito. The bistek (steak) burrito was bland and just tasted like the flour tortilla. I had to use all of the salsa given so that it would have flavor. The meat had a chewy and almost stewed like flavor that. The only saving grace was the fiesta nachos I got with carne asada and the red salsa. The carne asada had a nice flavor from the marinade they use, the chips tasted like they were freshly made from corn tortillas and were great. The shredded cheese and white queso threw me off but it was good overall. I gave it a try but will be finding somewhere else to get mexican food.

This is a fast casual taco restaurant which offers your staple and simple tex-mex items. You order your meals then you choose your table and the server brings your food to you. All the tacos especially the chicken is good. I dont recommend the pastor it has an odd flavor. Barbacoa and lingua are the best. The salsa (green and red) are both great. I highly recommend the quesadilla and the burrito they are very filling. You also can't go wrong with the elote!

Quesadilla

Absolutely loveeed this place. The employees are really nice and honestly I love how easy it is to choose what you'll like quickly off the menu. The ambiance is really nice as well, there is also a ventana off of McKinney Ave and it's equally as amazing. Recommend both places !! Drinks are A1 !

Taqueria ventana is a great quick and casual option. The food is decent, but nothing particularly special. We got the chips and queso, 3 tacos, and the elotes. I was disappointed by the chips, but everything else was just fine. The service was good and all of the employees were generally friendly. They have great drink prices and specials, so I would definitely consider coming back for one of their happy hours or if I needed something to hold me over on the fly.

I've been to La Ventana in Addison many times, and it's always a fantastic experience. On my most recent visit, I had two shredded pork tacos and two vegetable tacos, all served on corn tortillas (though they kindly let me know I could get flour tortillas instead). The flavor was outstanding--fresh, authentic, and full of that perfect balance of seasoning that makes their tacos some of the best around. Their corn is also incredible and always a must-order for me. To go with my meal, I tried their pineapple habanero margarita, and it was excellent--refreshing, with just the right amount of sweetness and spice. I sat outside at the bar since the weather was beautiful, and the atmosphere made everything even more enjoyable. The real standout, though, was the service. Robert, the bartender, along with his colleagues, was incredibly friendly, caring, and attentive. Since I'm a type 1 diabetic, I had some questions about the drinks, and they went above and beyond to check in on me, even asking a few times about my blood sugar levels throughout my visit and as I was leaving. They also mentioned how it helps them learn more about serving guests with different health needs, which really showed their thoughtfulness. La Ventana continues to be one of my favorite spots in Addison--not just for the food and drinks, but for the welcoming people who make the experience memorable. I'll definitely be back again and again.

Carnitas, Pollo and El Pastor tacos

Third time here for lunch and the tacos de carnitas, pastor and barbacoa hit the spot. With a side order of queso and chips. They have friendly service that is very welcoming. Vibe here is very lively with a twist of some good Mexican music to top off this good restaurant.

....... READ THIS REVIEW ......... Very good food, reasonable prices and fun casual setting. Although I only had a quick lunch there - I'm coming back to try more items. Chicken Quesadilla: Really good! I like them a lot. Handmade tortillas, shredded chicken that is very moist (not greasy), flavorful and perfectly seasoned. White cheddar cheese and perfectly proportioned with to the ratio of chicken. Normal thickness (you don't feel jipped.) Very soft spicy heat at the end (not bad at all, heat is 2 out of 10). Overall score 9 of 10. Service was super fast (3-5 minutes and food was ready). Guacamole is really good. Most add-ons come on the side. If you want to add grilled onions on the inside - order it that way or they are 'on the side'. Also, the lettuce had tomato bits on top along with a full drizzle of sour cream. If you want only lettuce, be clear. Definitely go! I'll be back too!! Total score: 8.5 out of 10 (very casual)

Queso & Chips
Renee I.

Nice place, chill vibes, but the tacos were not so great. I ordered 4 Barbacoa tacos and I barely got through 1 of them. A lot of it was fatty. Luckily I ordered chips and queso, too. The queso was delicious and thankfully so because otherwise, my entire meal would have been a waste. I'm hesitant to come back, but the crowd this place gets is making me think this was a one-off situation. I guess we'll see.

I have been to this spot couple times!! I haven't been in over one year or so! But this will be the last! The tacos were bad! They were not nasty gross but they were not good at all!! Tacos de carnitas: not good! Lacking flavor! Carnitas was too mushy! Tacos de bistec: too dry lacking flavor Tacos de barbacoa: way way too greasy! Not enough flavor! Corn: no flavor- They charged me twice for my food! The only good thing here was the decor! I was a fan of this place but not no more! Totally disappointed

You have to try their street tacos here. I highly recommend the barbacoa. IT'S SO GOOD! The meat is super juicy and flavorful. It'll transport you south of the border through a culinary and cultural experience. All their tacos are less than $3. Plus, the traditional white corn tortillas are handmade daily in the restaurant. You wouldn't think a Mexican place has a good burger, but the al pastor burger here is quite tasty. For the pineapple lovers, it includes grilled pineapples, which gives it a blend of savory and sweet. It's not a party without margaritas! Make sure to get the frozen mango margarita. It'll hit the spot. If you like a little spicy, try the version with Chamoy!

Lengua (beef tongue), barbacoa and steak tacos.
Aldo Q.

My go-to order: 2 Barbacoa 2 Carnitas 2 Pastor Guac & Chips Maybe I will order two more, Lengua possibly. This location is our favorite for their service and music!

Food was ok and salsa was not good. It kind of ruined it for me a Mexican restaurant in my opinion should always have good salsa.

Service team was quick to great and seat, always good because we have a limited dining time. Drink orders (sodas, we were working) came fast, along with chips, salsa and beans.

The ambiance inside is fun and classic, made for a great experience. The fjnal part, the bill, was lower than expected. If in the area, give them a try. 5 stars.

The service was outstanding and our waitress was fantastic. The only problem is the food is way below standard fare. Presentation and plated courses eye pleasing. One bite and disappointment sets in! For all its efforts to wow , I've had much better food at Dos Charros. Try any of the other Tex-Mex in close proximity to this place and you'll be better off The tortillas for my fajitas were Huge , paper thin, and chewy. must have been 12 inches wide Too big to wield and cumbersome to load . Not returning here. Better choices nearby

Now we were just looking for some tacos, so I asked the lady about it and she said we didn't have to worry about it. The tacos were actually super good! However, the price point was a tad bit higher than some of my fav taco spots. We also tried to order a whiskey drink, but they are mainly tequila there so if you are looking for something else may want to go drink somewhere else!

I was planning on finding some local take-out for the hotel room while finishing some work, but ended up eating in this great find within a local strip mall. I had the Taco Plate (3 Street Taco's) meal which comes with rice and beans as well as very fresh onions, radish, and limes for stuffing. I had one beef, one Chicken, and one Chipotle Chicken. They were each great, the chicken was a bit dry but the chipotle chicken was great. Based on signage I had to try the Flan, and boy I was glad I did. It's enough for 2 or 3 but I killed it, it was that good! The service was great, waitress was kind and helped me make decisions and part of the reason I decided to stay. The owner stopped by to say hi, such a nice gentleman who clearly puts his all into this fine establishment. The Ambiance is very nice, clean and uniquely decorated. Not traditional or trendy like most Mexican restaurants, airy and carries an overall good feeling. They have a very nice full bar yet I was not drinking so enjoyed a traditional Topo Chico Mexican seltzer (I understand it goes great with tequila). Their mural is amazing and unique. If in the Dallas area and you are looking for authentic Mexican food, this place is a must try! I will return!!
