    Beef Enchilada Plate
    Anna P.

    Waitress Daniella was a great waitress! Chips & Salsa great, Pegasus Plate Delish...everything here is good so far! Great Flour Tortillas.

    The sampler plate
    Niall P.

    This was a hidden surprise near Dallas Love Field Airport. Staff are super friendly, good atmosphere and great range of food and drinks. I couldn't decide on what I wanted, so I got the sampler plate under the appetizer part of the menu and it was all very tasty. Also had their coconut frozen margaritas and that was equally as good. They were not shy about putting in the tequila! If you are in the area and want good food and good service at a very fair price. Then this place will not disappoint.

    Nothing like watching my team play with food
    Robert L.

    Fresh out of the gym and running on fumes, I needed two things: a solid meal and a place to watch my Cowboys. Saw the high reviews and thought, "Alright, let's see what the hype's about." Walked in and the host seated me quicker than a two-minute drill. I grabbed a bar seat--seven TVs glowing blue and silver, the Cowboys on every screen. There's something special about watching America's Team in Texas... the cheers hit louder, the energy feels like home, and you can't help but get swept up in it. I went with the 3-item combo: chicken enchiladas with green sauce, Spanish rice, and charros beans. And listen... I'm almost certain somebody's abuela is in the back putting her whole heart into those recipes. That plate tasted like tradition--warm, comforting, and exactly what a hungry soul needs after a workout. Absolutely hit the spot. Might have to do an extra set tomorrow to make up for it. The whole place was spotless and well-organized, the kind of clean that tells you people here actually care. The bar staff greeted me the second I sat down, joked with customers, and had food out faster than I expected. Genuine kindness, not the scripted stuff. This isn't just a "stop in and eat" type of place-- it's a spot where good food, good people, and good vibes show up at the same time. One of those restaurants that reminds you why dining out can still feel personal. I'll definitely be back. And next time, I'm coming hungrier.

    Excellent street tacos with a nice mild habanero sauce. Quality es excellent and I can see why it comes so highly recommended.

    Happy hour guacamole

    We went here when it was Casa Rosa but we did not realize it was the same building until we arrived. The interior has been re-done so it is a bit more modern and cleaner. But the Mexican decorations are largely missing in the main dining area. We did not sit in the bar area since we had the kid with us but as I passed by I noticed that it looked very attractive and a place I would want to sit and sip margaritas. We went for an early dinner after picking the kid up from school, so we were definitely doing the Florida dinner time model (really early). As a consequence, the restaurant was nearly empty. By the time we ordered our food, we were the only ones there. It was happy hour so I got a happy hour margarita. It was ok but not very strong. I guess for $5 what can you expect. I had another. The wife had a glass of happy hour wine, I think it was $5 or $6. There is a happy hour menu so I ordered the jalapeño torpedoes and they were the best I ever had. I forget the price but you get four but I could have eaten ten. They were absolutely delicious. Lightly fried, they were small but packed incredible flavor from the chicken filling. I would order them from the regular menu next time. The wife got happy hour guac and liked it. For entrees, she had the chili Rellano (grilled) and liked it a lot. The lime white rice was delicious. The charro beans were the best both of us ever had. For my entree, I ordered the chicken fajita and it was delicious. The chicken was tender and juicy, lots of flavor. It came with a scoop of guar, sour cream, and pico. I needed more pico though. Oddly, there was a not a lime wedge to squeeze on the chicken which is pretty standard. I loved the charro beans too. For dessert, we ordered churros and they were really good. I bit different from Mesero's, these had a chocolate dipping sauce. The churros dough was flavorful and was not greasy at all. Our server Martin was great. Very friendly, very helpful with tips about the menu, and very accommodating to our every wish. The main criticism I have is that food took forever to come out. We were alone in the restaurant and from order to delivery it had to be a good 25 minutes. I was wondering, if it took that long for one table, what happens when they get busy? Overall, it was a great meal and a great experience. The chef is definitely talented. Next time, and there will be next time, I will get a regular margarita, not off the happy hour menu. I will get torpedoes off the regular menu.

    Rajas Con Crema. This is a side by. I ordered it as an appetizer also pictured our house made buttery flour tortillas.

    Stopped in for lunch at Texano Cosina and I'm really glad I did. It's conveniently located in a strip mall just a few minutes from Love Field Airport, and parking was easy--even with a full-size SUV. I was greeted warmly at the hostess stand and seated right away. The décor was tasteful and comfortable. Chips and salsa arrived almost immediately--the chips were thin, crisp, and perfectly salted, and the salsa was outstanding with a great balance of tomato, herbs, citrus, and salt. My server, Daniela, was fantastic. She was friendly, took the time to learn my name, offered great recommendations, and checked on me throughout the meal to make sure I never needed anything. I started with Rajas con Crema, which was absolutely delicious--poblano peppers, onion, corn, and crema, perfectly seasoned. I chose the flour tortillas, and they were exceptional--warm, buttery, and easily some of the best I've had. I even used the rajas to top my fajita tacos later. For my main dish, I ordered the lunch fajitas and was surprised by how generous the portion was. I swapped cheese for sour cream and upgraded to charro beans (there's a $2 upcharge). The guacamole was very good, the pico de gallo had a bit more heat than I'm used to but was still enjoyable, and the meat was tender and well-seasoned. While not the best fajitas I've ever had, they were solid and something I'd definitely order again. The only downside was the wait time for the food--it took a bit longer than expected for lunch, though it was clearly made fresh. Overall, Texano Cosina is absolutely worth checking out if you're in this part of Dallas. Prices are reasonable, the food is above average, and the service--especially from Daniela--was excellent.

    Chicken Enchiladas
    Dustin U.

    This place is pretty good. Reasonable prices, good service, and hasn't been crowded when I've been. This trip we had mixed fajitas and chicken enchiladas. Both were good. This isn't the best place around, but it is better priced than some of the others. Not bad for the price.

    Texano Sampler
    Sean C.

    Food was ok, service was very slow. Took almost two hours for just a brunch. Since it was new got the sampler to try a few different things. The only two good things on the plate were the quesadillas and the jalepenos.

    $5 happy hour margaritas - strawberry on the left and a Titorita on the right.
    Amy S.

    Finally. A place in this spot with delicious food, drinks, a truly great happy hour and good tunes. It is also so refreshing to have excellent service for a change. The staff is welcoming and works as a team. We've been working our way around the menu and have loved most everything. Beef and chicken fajitas . Chicken enchiladas . Flauta dinner. Tortilla soup . Just when we thought the refried pinto beans were amazing, we had the black beans which are even better . There are also two rice options . Plus $5 flavored margs during happy hour that aren't stingy on the pour . I obviously recommend.

    The family and I stopped in for lunch and were seriously impressed! The food and service both exceeded our expectations. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but a few standouts for us were the bacon-wrapped Texas torpedoes and the brisket flautitas -- both were absolute hits at the table. And the churros were some of the best I've ever had! On top of that, the service was incredible. Everyone was so kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back!

    Flautas
    Cheryl C.

    Good food! Great service! Our group of 9 all ordered a variety of things from the menu. We chose enchiladas and tortilla soup with flauta appetizers. Rick one of the owners greeted our table and welcomed us all. This place has been many restaurants aver the last few years. This should be the final! We also enjoyed a carafe of mimosas!

The service was excellent, and our server gave us some great recommendations throughout the evening. We tried the I Dream of Kiwi, Only Fans, and the Soft Serve Margarita. The first two were refreshing, fruity, and packed with flavor, while the Soft Serve Margarita was a fun twist on a classic. For food, we had the Caesar salad, beef cheek tacos, and the Apothecary Burger with the truffle fries upgrade. The Caesar was a little too heavy on the dressing for my taste, making it quite fishy, so I'd recommend asking for the dressing on the side or going light on it. The burger with truffle fries was easily a 9/10, and the beef cheek tacos were just as good--tender, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. One of the best parts is the happy hour offered every day until 6:30 PM, with all "Over the Counter" cocktails for $12 and 50% off food. It's one of the better happy hour deals in Dallas, especially considering the quality of the food, drinks, and overall experience. We'll definitely be back.

    What a fantastic experience celebrating my partners birthday. I made reservations for a party of 4…read more When we arrived we were greeted with smiles from two hostesses. Upon entering you're met with dim lights, deep burgundy leather seats and images of musicians painted in every corner. The restaurant is absolutely stunning! Our table wasn't quite ready so we were asked to wait at the bar for short while. We started the celebration early by ordering a few drinks and by the time they arrived, our table was ready. We were lead to a large half moon shaped booth nestled in the corner; which was large and plush. Plenty of room for us four and honestly at least two more people. On our table was a place card that said Happy Birthday to my partner which was a nice touch. Our waitress arrived and very pleasant and helpful. She asked if we had questions and gave us some highlights of the menu. We ordered another round along with Meatballs Troubadour, the Heavenly Sourdough and Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice. The Heavenly Sourdough and Meatballs Troubadour were absolutely the stars of the show! The meatballs were flavorful and juicy. The marinara sauce paired wonderfully with the sourdough. For entrees, Dry-Aged Delmonico, Pomme Puree, Crispy Brussels, Honey Truffle Chicken and Whole Lobster Spaghetti. All the food was divine! To wrap it all up we of course ordered the 24 layer strawberry cake. The cake was bought out with a candle and 4 glasses of bubbly which was a very nice treat. Drake's met all my expectations and more. A huge thank you to the manager stopping by to make sure all was well throughout our meal. And also our waitress for her professionalism, knowledgeable and all around pleasant vibe. Drake's is now on my love list!

    We came to Drake's to celebrate a friend's birthday and left extremely disappointed…read more From the moment we were seated, our original server made us feel like he wanted us to order, eat, and leave as quickly as possible. We were told we had to place our entire order at once, and despite our reservation noting that we were celebrating a birthday, he never acknowledged it or even asked if we were celebrating a special occasion. When we mentioned it ourselves, he didn't respond at all. While returning from the restroom (which was also uncomfortably hot and stuffy), I spoke with the manager, Jason, about our experience and asked if we could switch servers. Thankfully, Vlad, who had been serving nearby tables, took over our table. He was a complete turnaround. Vlad was personable, energetic, attentive, and provided the level of hospitality we expected. He truly saved what he could of the experience. Our group spent over $750 on food and drinks. The appetizers and sides were excellent and easily the highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, the entrees didn't live up to the same standard. One steak was overcooked and had to be sent back. By the time the replacement arrived, everyone else had already finished eating. The Salmon Diane was also dry and overcooked. To end the night, while we were waiting for our checks to be processed, Jason came over and told us the next reservation had arrived and that we needed to leave. We explained that we were simply waiting to pay, yet no effort was made to speed up the process by collecting our payment or offering to run the checks. It felt rushed and incredibly inhospitable, especially after everything that had already gone wrong. The only reasons this review isn't one star are Vlad and the excellent appetizers and sides. We've dined at many high-end restaurants, and this was by far one of the most disappointing service experiences we've had, especially for a special celebration. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.
