Carnitas Torta
Haley M.

Maybe it was an off day, but our food was very disappointing. We ordered 2 carnitas tortas, a scrambled egg breakfast plate, and 3 breakfast tacos. The scrambled egg plate was not put in the bag, when I checked the digital receipt at home it was labeled "out of stock" but the restaurant didn't offer this information when I was picking up. I don't know if the tortas were an entirely different kind of sandwich but I can tell you there was zero meat, it was all fat(?) on both tortas. The fries that came with them were cold and looked like they were from yesterday. The bread and avocado was still good and at least we got three egg and potato tacos.

My order.

I ordered my daughter's birthday dinner online, so we could try a new place. I picked up the bag of food, which was knotted and tied very tightly. I was told they had no queso. I said that's fine, I need my money back. I was given exactly $5.95 in cash. Taxes are a real thing, but I didn't complain. I left and opened the bag at home. Big mistake. As you can see in the picture, a variety of tacos were ordered. Please see the next picture where all of the tacos looked the exact same. I have no idea what this is. I immediately took the tacos back to the restaurant and they just happened to have locked their doors by 7:30pm. No one answered the phone or the door. The hours posted show 10pm closing and the Open sign was still flashing. This is extremely frustrating and ruined our dinner plans. The customer's phone number is visible on the order, and all they had to do was reach out if there was an issue. I did request a refund through Zing, so we will see what happens. 0/10 experience.

We placed a takeout dinner and picked it up. We ordered different type of Tacos, quesadillas and quezo. Cashier is friendly and patiently waiting for us to decide the orders.

Me and my husband decided to stop by for lunch . I was very pleased with the food . The portion looked great and so did the meat . I ordered the barbacoa tacos and it was perfect . Even my husbands torta looked great. ( I still stole some from his plate ) Let me tell you that even the fries were delish. The host was very nice and helped my baby into her seat . I definitely will be returning here for more !

Taco plate and chips & queso
Krista G.

When I think about the place, my first thought is "I'd go back". I'm a fan of their green sauce. It's like Frank's; I put that sh*t on everything. It's hot but still tastes like green sauce. The taco meat is flavorful and they aren't cheap on the meat. All the tacos were loaded and I couldn't pick a favorite. We've been a few times now and the quality has remained the same. Whether is Tuesday or Friday, you're getting a quality taco here. It's an easy place to go for pick up. We haven't eaten inside yet but look forward to order from here again. We order the chips this time and they are fresh made. So good. The queso doesn't match the quality of the chips; it's a little bland but you know how to fix that?! Add green sauce and suddenly the queso is fantastic.

Chorizo Egg Taco and Cheese & Bean Taco
Lauren R.

Definitely enjoyed my tacos we picked up this morning. The tacos are small but cheap and really yummy. Two of these little tacos are perfect for a smaller breakfast! I had the chorizo and egg and the bean and cheese taco. I topped my tacos with the red salsa but be warned. If you can't handle a heat this is not for you.

3 taco plate: al pastor, bistec, barbacoa
Shannah H.

I've not really found a terrific place for street tacos on the west side of 75 in Plano, until now. Friends of ours from the Dominican Republic told us to try Taquerias Cervantez. They did not lead us astray. We ordered the 3 taco lunch plate. A great price for 3 tacos, beans and rice, plus salsa. The best salsa, hands down, is the verde. Spicy and flavorful, but not a meal ender. For our tacos, we went with barbacoa, pastor and bistec. All were delicious, not overly fatty and flavorful. The tacos were packed with plenty of meat, so you got a great value for the money spent. Bottom line: Would I eat here again? YES. Am I saying all of this only because this is one of the only real street taco places west of 75? NO. Should you stop in? YES.

Barbacoa taco
Temina C.

I randomly found this incredible taco restaurant when I needed tacos. It's in a quiet plaza next to a bubble tea cafe in Plano. It's very quiet but they've been opened for decades. The menu is simple. They serve breakfast - dinner which is convenient. The first time I came here I ordered 10 tacos to go. It ended up being $1 per taco which was a good deal. The prices are very inexpensive which is why I love this place even more. I tried the chicken and the barbacoa tacos and when I tell you that this is the best taco restaurant in Plano that's an understatement. The food is DELICIOUS! The barbacoa was seasoned so well. It wasn't greasy but very meaty and delicious. They came with green and red salsa which were both very spicy but its good. I ended up coming here twice in one week because it was so good! I also got the rice and beans which are incredible as well! Everyone who works here is extremely kind and friendly. If you speak Spanish, that's a bonus as well! Overall this is my new taco restaurant! I can't wait to try their breakfast one day!

Shredded Chicken Tacos
Nisha L.

I've moved from the area but was in the area today and had to try my old favorite taco spot to see if they were still hitting the same... and they are! Omg I miss this spot and living so close. A hidden gem in plank with the best street tacos! I ordered my usual chicken tacos on corn tortilla. They have THE BEST red sauce and the most seasoned sautéed onions I've had at a taco shop. I always order extra sautéed onions. They don't take too long but they've never been super quick cause everything made fresh. They're always so nice. It's never been glamorous on the inside: it's a taco shop? It's a few tables & you can sit down and eat. But you will always see some construction trucks or worker trucks in the lot cause this is where the real Hispanics go for authentic food tacos. They have some of the best seasoned meet around & the tortillas are always so soft. Miss them & will visit every time I'm in the area

Shredded Chicken Tacos
Ternesha W.

I love some authentic tacos and Taquerias Cervantez hit the spot. I got four shredded chicken tacos, they were full of flavor and juicy. The cilantro and diced onions definitely topped it off! The restaurant itself isn't super big, although you can eat inside, I took mine to-go. Pricing is very reasonable!

We are regulars here at Mena's, for 15 years Let me just…read moresay we have NEVER had cold food, it's always piping hot. And the margaritas are strong and well priced, we have eaten at other mexican food establishments and they charge $18 for sweet lime-aid. We usually ask for Eric since he's our favorite! Table-side guacamole is a Yum, as anything with brisket. The beef fajitas are the most tender we have ever tasted. If you like spicy salsa, ask for the Verde salsa. Menas you make our tastebuds dance!!!

The bartender was attentive, kind, and professional. The atmosphere felt welcoming, and you can tell they have loyal regulars, which always speaks well of a restaurant. The staff overall seemed consistent and friendly. Now for the food. I ordered the queso to start. The flavor was good, but it wasn't hot -- more lukewarm than fresh-out-the-kitchen warm. For my entrée, I had the skirt steak with beans, pico de gallo, enchilada, and rice. The flavors were solid, but again, the plate came out lukewarm. For a Tex-Mex spot, temperature really matters. I don't need it piping hot, but I do expect my food to feel freshly made and properly heated when it arrives. That was my only disappointment. I've ordered carryout before without issue, and because the service and vibe are strong, I will definitely be back to give it another try. I just hope next time the food comes out hot and fresh. Overall: great service, good flavors, strong local energy -- just room for improvement on food temperature.

They take tender chicken enchiladas and generously blanket them in a rich, complex mole sauce that's prepared fresh each morning with the traditional ritual of toasting, grinding, and simmering spices, chiles, nuts, and chocolate. The result is a sauce that's bold yet balanced--savory and earthy with subtle sweetness, a gentle heat, and layers of depth that coat the soft corn tortillas and juicy shredded chicken beautifully. It's served alongside black beans (frijoles negros) and rice, creating a satisfying plate that's comforting and elevated at the same time. Many diners describe it as mouthwatering, excellent, and one of the best takes on chicken mole enchiladas around, with the sauce often stealing the show for its authenticity and flavor harmony. At around $20, it's a solid value for the quality and portion. The restaurant itself nails that perfect blend of modern Tex-Mex and authentic Mexican cuisine in a warm, inviting atmosphere. The space feels trendy yet welcoming--dim lighting at dinner for a cozy vibe or bright and airy during brunch--with friendly, attentive service that makes you feel like family. Reviewers consistently rave about how the staff is knowledgeable, helpful with suggestions, and genuinely happy to serve. Cocktails are a highlight (fresh, creative, and perfectly paired with the food), and the overall menu shines with other standouts like birria stacked enchiladas, tacos de camaron, short rib tacos, fajitas, and coastal-inspired dishes, but the mole enchiladas remain a classic favorite for those seeking traditional depth with a polished twist.
