Affordable and tasty. I was looking for the Mexican breakfast restaurant Friday morning and I was around Medical city. There were a couple of other restaurants, but I decided to visit here because of the good review. The restaurant itself was small and all tables/chairs were not available because of the Covid 19. On the front door, I found the notification "no mask, no service" and I like that since there are so many restaurants who don't care about the safety protocol. Inside the restaurant, as you see on the menu, they have many options about burritos and tacos, also others. I chose a burrito and 3 tacos, all of them are tasty. The reason of the stars is 1). I wanted less oily in the burrito , they have eggs and chorrizo (I picked), but egg was somehow a bit oily. 2). The shell (flower) of tacos were dried up and got hardened. But it was not too bad to rate it as less than 4 stars. And price was $9 for above. Worth a try, what do you think ?
Summary: Hole-in-the-wall with decent and inexpensive street taco's and sub-par straight BBQ. Observations: Brisket: Co-workers and I all found it to be on the dry side and the bark barely had any flavor. Ribs: Noticeably better, at least the thicker parts were (thin parts were like jerky) Quesadilla: quite large had a surprising amount of cheese compared to the finely chopped chicken Sides: Green bean side had small bits of ham in it, and the charro beans had small winnie sausages in it.
These tacos are AMAZING!!! i've lived down the street for 5 months and ian even know they was here but now that i found them ima be coming back every week. very good and affordable business i hope they stay here for a while
Came in here for a quick lunch with a friend who has been here before. They have really affordable and reasonably priced meals and their taste is nothing short of amazing. It's an authentic Mexican cuisine place that specializes in tacos and quesadillas. I tried their chicken quesadillas and they taste so cheesy and good. They give you the option for red and green salsa with your meal and I tried their red salsa which was perfect because it is just slightly spicy. I'll make sure to come back again and try other menu items as well as their green salsa. 10/10
We were craving stuffed baked potatoes for dinner, and got on Yelp to find if there were any options besides a chain restaurant potato like Dickey's. I saw the brisket potato on this page and immediately knew this was the place to be -- except I don't ear beef. According to the photos on here, the only meat option for the potato is brisket. I thought about heading to the more boring option, but decided to check to see if they'd accommodate me. They were nothing but nice about it, and advised they could also do sausage or chicken. I went with chicken and we took our potatoes to go. They were massive and delicious. Butter pooled up in the bottom of the take out container, but the potato was still firm and fresh. They pack the bbq sauce in containers and then in shrink wrap to minimize spillage which I thought was GENIUS. The food is inexpensive and tastes awesome. I am excited to go back and eat a meal inside. Definitely check this place out.
I love Mexican food and BBQ, and this hole in the wall was definitely a mix of both! The tacos could use some work though. A little dry and not that fresh. Wouldn't recommend coming here purely for tacos. The burrito and quesadilla portions were HUGE! I've never had a place give you the whole quesadilla, only half. And the burrito was stuffed! Definitely worth the money, very tasteful, and very filling! There's so much more I want to try like the loaded shredded beef baked potato so I'll definitely be coming back again. Not to mention it's very close to UT Dallas so it attracts hungry college students on a budget. Cheap. Flavorful. Filling.
Ok how have I gone to UTD for five years and NEVER heard of this place??? It is a college kid's dream! Authentic tacos AND barbecue??? My boyfriend and I went after finding this place on Yelp and we're officially obsessed with it. It's a small hole in the wall place, but the staff was kind and everything looked clean. When I asked for a cup for water (trying to save money), the employee just offered me a free water bottle instead, saying that "the tap water here isn't that good." I really appreciated his generosity! I ordered the steak quesadilla and WOAH BABY! It was huge! There was tons of perfectly grilled steak and melty cheese filling up the massive quesadilla. I could only eat half and had enough for a second meal. All for under $7! My boyfriend got the brisket baked potato with BBQ sauce on the side and might have actually fallen in love with it. The brisket was tasty, tender, and piled high on a wonderful baked potato with cheese and butter. We were both really impressed with Tejano BBQ's generosity with the brisket, they weren't stingy at all. Once again, his whole meal was under $7 We'll definitely be back!
First time here, I got the brisket stuffed potato and one brisket taco. Small restaurant with uncomfortably chilly AC. Friendly and knowledgeable cashier. Potato: humongous with lots of meat. BUT the meat isn't seasoned and not the most tender. It's a good, filling meal for $7 but be ready to doctor it up with salt, pepper, and bbq sauce. Taco: meat also not seasoned. It needs lots of green sauce. I will come back to try more items. It's good/not the best but I want to try some other meats and sides before deciding if this place will go in my BBQ rotation.
Hands down my favorite place for tacos in Dallas. Actually It's THE place I compare everything to, from meat to salsas, whether it's from Dallas or out of town. The barbacoa meat is not the usual stringy shredded beef , but it is this special meat they have that is pulled out by the slab and chopped up to order. It is incredibly moist and tasty, but very very rarely is it a tad too fatty. The habanero hot sauce is amazing. Decent flavor, but the heat is perfect. I actually like to mix the tomatillo and habanero together for a nice balance of flavor and heat. I haven't had too much of the BBQ YET, but I have ordered the BBQ potato and it is huge. Top it with your choice of meat and fixings. I opt to have no BBQ sauce and just drown it in salsa instead. Delicious and super filling.
The name is a little confusing as I never see anyone get the BBQ; however, they should definitely emphasize the "more." The chicken quesadilla is best thing on the menu for me, adding jalapenos into their pico de gallo makes it fantastic. The breakfast tacos are worth mentioning since one taco (more like a burrito is humongous and smells delicious with the egg tucked inside. The other things are the menu are so-so. The meat on the tacos and burritos are pretty try and not super tasty. I love myself some Al Pastor and its always my baseline for new places, but the Al Pastor in my burrito was dry and not very seasoned for me. I'd probably come back for a quesadilla though.
Right now you're probably thinking, "Wow! That's a great rating. Should we give this place a try?" Well, part of me wants to tell you NO. Because then all you Yelpers are going to clog up this little hole in the wall. And that's not going to work out for me so well when I want to go get my 3 tacos plus Mexican coke in a bottle for $5.69!!! But I guess I should be honest and tell you that you aren't going to believe how damn good these tacos are! And super cheap!!! In fact, so cheap that it scares me a little... But who cares? By the way, when I first visited the place was packed with Hispanics. And staffed by Hispanics. I was the only gringo in the joint - so you know that's a good sign! Anyway, get your crew over here and maybe order the 25 taco pack for $25.99! As for me, round two has arrived so it's time to chow down... Peace!

Tejano is pretty much how it sounds.. bbq plus mexican food. I read some reviews about this and pretty much it was a go. I notice they have mexican coke, which I heard was illegal? Anyways I ordered the taco plate which comes with three tacos, rice and your choice of beans. For the tacos I got corn with fajita, brisket and al pastor. My favorite was the fajita because it had a taste similar to Korean ribs. The other two were either dry or wasn't as good. As for the beans I got the charro beans, which is beans with jalapeno, bacon and etc. The plate doesn't come with a drink and the price is $7. They also have agua fresca but only two choices. For my overall experience it was pretty alright. I wasn't really expecting much and wasn't disappointed either. But I don't think I would come here often because I have other places in mind for my tacos. read more

I think I've just found my new favorite breakfast burrito place! Great value ($2.99 and has lots of meat (see my photos)) and their salsa verde was excellent! Small little hole in the wall (but aren't holes in the wall the best anyway?) that is worth going the extra distance to get to... They had your normal breakfast meat choices, plus fajita meat or brisket! Woohoo, gimme some brisket! So how I have a happy belly and I can percieve that it's going to be a great day! read more

This is my third visit and the only reason they still have 2 stars instead of 1 is because the fajita was good and the salsas and beans are good. I don't know what the heck was in the barbacoa! I bit into something with a weird texture and spit is in the trash. I started fishing through the meat and there was stuff in there that I'd never seen before. Some kind of organ I can't describe...see pics. Then the pastor was dry and hard. Don't let the grease fool u in the pic, it was inedible. Finally the rice is bland. After biting that organ thing I didn't have an appetite anymore anyway. read more

This place is great! Affordable, super close to UTD campus, and the breakfast tacos are on another level when paired with habanero salsa (I freaking love spicy food). The staff are accommodating, and though the layout of the restaurant is small and simple, the atmosphere is cozy and warm. This place is definitely one a hole in the wall establishment. For a taco obsessed broke college student, this place packs in the flavor and quality at a damn good price. I highly recommend! read more

Food was pretty good! Nice quality meat and tortillas. Rice wasn't kicking but the jalapeno beans made up for it. Restaurant appearance is not appealing but looks clean. Not many tables but its mostly a take out place so it's okay. Will go again for their fajita tacos and quesadillas! read more
