Solid place. Ordered the Alambre platter with 5 tacos, all Steak. Great portions of steak, good flavor. Great combination of onions and peppers. Order came with rice & beans, good flavor. Order this, and you won't go hungry. Cool downtown spot, open late, 10 minute walk from home. Plenty of seating inside and out. Only thing, and this doesn't go against the restaurant, but don't order delivery through their website if you can help it. Ordered through there, and it was assigned to Uber Eats. 6 drivers and 90 minutes later, my order was cancelled. I called the restaurant, and the staff was VERY helpful. Apparently, one driver stole my food, so every other driver was told there was no order to pick up. By ordering through the restaurant website, I couldn't dispute this with Uber Eats, since my account didn't reflect an order. However, the restaurant staff was VERY NICE in helping to issue a refund. I recommend the staff, not the delivery aspect. 2 hours later, and I wound up going to get a new order myself... even though I was feeling sick, which defeated the purpose of the delivery in the first place. Either way, I recommend the food, the staff, and the restaurant.. just not their hired delivery service. read more

Yelped to see what is good and what isn't. Came on Sunday the 31st. Chicken burrito was fantastic. June 1 - came today after a hike. MAJOR MISTAKE Ordered the beef this time. PLS BEWARE A HUGE GRISTLE IN the burrito - glad I ate it in the restaurant. Called for the manager. I felt like I was talking to a newbie, no accountability he said it's part of the process some gristle gets through. Picture the palm of your hand and about an inch thick. Can't tell me the chef or whomever packed the burrito didn't feel this. Manager needs more tutoring because I can't believe his skills are who to par. Eduardo. Don't even have the skills to come back after telling me there was zero he can do. Yeah. You can make sure the next customer doesn't chomp on a big piece or gristle. read more

Laid back ambience in this casual Mexican restaurant downtown. Ordered the veggie quesadilla which was excellent. Prices are reasonable, with lots of choices. Order at the front, will give you a number and deliver your food to your table. Took off one star only because some of the tables were not clean. read more

I got 3 traditional tacos. Al pastor and chicken yes!! The steak was dry. Horchata is really good but probably a lot of sugar. And then the churros are damn good. Nice vibes and friendly staff. Pretty clean. I'll come back. read more

Came here to have dinner before a show at the Winspear Opera house. We did not want to do a fancy dinner. We opted for tacos. Ordered the 5 taco plate plus an additional taco. Plate came with rice & beans and Jalapeños. Also ordered Jamaica drink. Total bill came out to $22. Not bad for a downtown location. The Al Pastor was a bit dry. The chicharon was good. The lengua was also good. The airconditioner was so loud, it's annoying. read more

It's is located downtown and easy to find. The have street parking right out front and parking lot to the side. It can be busy some nights but patience is required but not a long wait. All of their meats are cooked on the spit and you can watch them slicing and dicing and preparing your tacos which are amazing! I forgot to take pics but trust me as it is delish! The restaurant is a decent size and clean. The staff is super helpful and the sauces or anything but ordinary. Try them when you're in the area. read more

This place is clearly a Dallas favorite. It is a kick ass little taco restaurant located in downtown Dallas.. super friendly staff addictive flavor filled tacos and good alcoholic beverages with an outdoor area to eat and chill. Makes this place a great spot to visit after a late night of drinking or even for an afternoon lunch worth a stop considering driving all the way to Dallas again just to get me some tacos here! read more

Authentic taco spot in downtown Dallas! Walking in, I knew the place would be awesome when I saw the trompos! Tried all three (pastor, pollo, y asada) and they were all great. Quick service with a full bar. Happy hour at this spot is a must! Pro Tip: if you order the tacos definitely mix and match the meats! read more

The food was a solid 8/10 but the service was just.. not it. Called ahead to ask for suggestions for parking and the girl who answered didn't even know. we asked for recommendations on what to order (first timers); when we arrived and the same girl took our order and again didn't have much to say. Maybe it was just an off day.. We ordered the barbacoa twisted fries with no sour cream. Very flavorful and a lot of food for the price. Was impressed. Will try again for sure, food is worth it. read more

Twisted Trompo - Twisted Fries no sour cream - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I loved getting to try out the Tex Mex at this spot! I started out with the guac and chips which came with a very generous portion of chips. They included some salsa along with their guac. I was getting full before the rest of the meal! I had their 5 taco plate and tried a variety of the tacos they had on their menu. I loved getting to sample their different proteins and options here. The only thing I'd change is that the tacos were single tortilla instead of double like some street taco places, which made it easy for some of the filling to slide off. read more

Food was very tasty and super nice presentation for a lunch plate. I had the chicken flautas and a taco! Flavor range was delicious and not to pricey!! Nice kinda quick bar grab and go or enjoy the TV's or street view. read more

Really stingy with the portions. I ordered a taco platter and tacos hardly had any fajita. On top of that tacos had double tortilla. As if there was enough fajita for the addition tortilla . Place was good when they first opened . Now it's just over priced for the portion. Never going again. read more

my friends and i decided to eat here due to our texmex cravings. this place resembled that of a fast food restaurant and was very lively inside. there was a solid selection of items you could order from. my partner and i shared an al pastor fries, chicken salad, and birria tacos. the chicken salad was amazing!! there was soooo much chicken and it was very juicy. they had all the ingredients that i love in a salad (cucumbers, tomatoes, spring mix, lettuce). the birria tacos were alright. the sauce was pretty yummy. the fries were a bit underwhelming for me. i felt like a lot of the al pastor pieces were all fat, no meat. the cheese was at the bottom of the tray (for some odd reason). the sauce for the fries was yummy though. overall, my texmex cravings were satisfied. i would come back just for the chicken salad. read more

Great spot. Walked here from the hotel and they had an actual trompo spinning (always a good sign). The prices are fair and the ambience is nice. I appreciate the windows into the cooking area as I enjoy seeing the process. The staff is helpful and friendly. Ordered Al Pastor (of course) and they did not disappoint. They offered two salsa - one mild (green) and one hot (orange). Both were tasty and as spicy as advertised. I'll be up front about my personal bias here - tacos Al pastor tacos are my favorite thing. Seeing an actual trompo nowadays makes me happier than seeing Disney world did as a kid. Twisted trompo hit the spot and if/when I'm back in Dallas, I'll return here every time. read more

Twisted Trompo is fast food MexTex style. I assume it's a local chain. Service was great. The woman who took my order was very patient with me as I figured out the menu. The tacos were tasty. The tiny little cups of jalapeños and guacamole were extra. I looked without success for hot sauce to spice up the tacos. Bottom line: fast, inexpensive, fairly tasty taquitos. Would have been better with salsa picante. read more

Most tender meat I've had in a taco! I got their 3 taco plate with Barbacoa and Al Pastor and both were very tender. It comes with a good amount of onion and lime which I like and both their ranch sauce and salad verde are super tasty. Good amount of rice and beans. We went here late at night and they hit so hardddd. Also got their horchata which was also solid. Nice interior and staff were friendly! Solid pricing especially being in downtown Dallas and open late so I'll definitely be back! read more

Twisted Trompo - 3 Taco Plate - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Steak was chewey and full of gristle. Tortillas were cold. Carnitas was bland and under seasoned. Better places nearby.

the food was hot and fresh, the service was fast and friendly, the restaurant was clean and organized.

A standard three-star visit. The food options were okay, the staff was reasonable, and the overall ordering process was typical. It's a fine option if you're looking to grab a quick, convenient bite to eat on Commerce St, but the entire experience felt pretty average. read more

Came to visit based on a work trip. The restaurant was fairly empty, but located in a great spot downtown. The server was friendly enough, offering suggestions for what I should try. I ended up ordering the three taco plate with chicken. Overall, my meal was OK But nothing too else standing for Mexican food in Texas. read more

Craving tacos, I didn't feel like driving somewhere so Doordash was my option. I decided on the 3 taco plate with the carnitas, steak, and barbacoa options. Also did a pair of lengua tacos and a breakfast chorizo/egg taco. The delivery kept getting pushed back until around the 45 minute mark when the bag was delivered to the front desk. Digging in, the barbacoa and lengua were my favorite. The carnitas and steak were dry so the verde salsa and lime squeeze went to the rescue and lifted it up. The verde salsa has a kick and compliments the tacos well. As for the breakfast taco, that never arrived as the restaurant doesn't serve those after breakfast hours. They probably should make that clear on the app when ordering. The rice and beans that came with the order were alright. The rice was ok, the beans had some flavor but very runny. I mixed both together to eat since they were mid on their own; much better when mixed. This seems to be a convenient and easy option when in a quick need of tacos. Hopefully next time I'll get to try the breakfast tacos. But I'll probably venture elsewhere for tacos unless I'm in a pinch. read more

I want to be straightforward: the customer service here is top-notch. The atmosphere and the staff were amazing, but the food was a huge letdown. Honestly, it looked better than it tasted. The burrito I had was the worst I've ever eaten; the meat was super dry and lacked any flavor. I ended up giving my meal to a homeless person because I couldn't finish it. When a worker came by to check on me, he was so cheerful that I didn't want to hurt his feelings, but I was really disappointed, especially with the four-star rating I'm sorry never again. read more

Good services, you deserve a good impression as well. We stopped here for lunch while shopping in the area. We had a couple of questions about the menu and the staff was happy to answer them.

Solid fast casual taco place. Open late and always busy. (You'll probably have to wait in a line for a bit before you can order.) The three taco plate is a good deal, and everything I've tried here has been yummy. read more

Small but might menu. You walk in and choose your meal and meat. The meals come with rice and refried beans. Cashier gives you a number and they bring the food to your table. Restaurant is pretty large for a downtown spot. You can see the cooks making your tacos through a glass window. When we were there, there was what seemed to be a larger crowd of homeless around the area, but the restaurant made sure patrons felt safe inside and kept the premises clean. Food came out quickly. Veggie quesadilla got a little messy with all the veggies and melted cheese, but was still good. I wouldn't think to put zucchini in it and the grilled onions would have been preferred to be diced instead of long cuts. read more

Twisted Trompo do better! This guy right here started yelling at me across the room disrespectfully bc I put Powerade in my water cup. I told him he was tripping over Gatorade and he put his hand on his hip like he had a gun.

The place is nice enough. The service is good. The food came out quick. It was a Sunday morning so they were not very busy, but overall the food was bland. Not something that I would have thought. The elote came in a bowl that was too small and when I mixed it up corn went all over the table. There was a lot of water on the bottom too. There didn't seem to be enough cream for as much corn as I was given. The corn screamed for salt. The hot sauce used on the corn was good and seemed to be throughout the corn. The tacos were good. I had a steak and a al pastor. Both needed some salt, and I really wish that the pastor had some pineapple on it. Overall the tacos weren't that bad. There are a lot of taco places in the metroplex. Neither one of us loved the place but we decided that we would give them another try thinking that they just had an off day. read more

I went to the commerce location where if your dining in you have to find parking. If it after 6pm you don't have to pay the meter but it's before 6pm you can't use quarter or the park mobile app to pay. You pay after you order your food and they bring the food to your table. The place is small but it's cute little spot. I got the corn taco with Al pastor meat and margarita as it was their taco Tuesday special. The tacos were well seasoned and the onions were grilled to perfection. The refried beans and rice were just OK. I did have one complaint about the advertisement. As you can see on the instagram post it says $9.99 for the 3 tacos and margarita. On the receipt at the bottom, it says $8.99 for the 3 tacos and margarita after 4pm which clearly (in the blue) it was 6pm. Also, on my receipt, it shows that I paid $9.99 and then they added the extra dollar for the margarita. When I asked about the discrepancy, I was told that this is the way the promotion worked. (So I potentially a extra $5 because I got 2 meal). read more
