The area seems a bit iffy to me, but before Herrera’s in Dallas this is my favorite hole-in-the-wall Tex-Mex-Joint.
Eating elotes, or maybe some barbacoa or lengua tacos is only half the fun. Standing in line may be the most delicious possible look at Dallas' cultural diversity. [Eater 38 Member]
The best place to take out-of-towners who wonder what all the fuss is when it comes to Tex-Mex. We recommend the chile relleno. And the brisket tacos. And, well, everything else. [Eater 38 Member]
Cool & Hot doesn't need a car wash and a beer drive-thru to bring folks to their taco goodness (ahem, Fuel City). All they need are their tender, flavorful tortillas and spicy meats. [Eater 38 Member]
The original home of old-style Tex-Mex, downtown's El Fenix location is famous for its service and classic, affordable menu. [Eater 38 Member]
Leave it to Oak Cliff to house Dallas' best example of the city's wave of new, true-Mexican restaurants. [Eater 38 Member]
Tuesdays are $2 margaritas! Ask for Ramsey he's new but gave great service. Heath is awesome also.
Tex n Mex n red alarm hot sauce! Consistent. Great fajitas and spicy guacamole! @kurtwvs
I know it's a mexican joint, but just try the LaHa burger. It won't disappoint. Good stuff!
Gloria's in Colleyville doesn't have salsa night any more. You have to go to the other sites for all that.
Not really a fan of their food to be honest with you. It's average. But too many of their margaritas will knock you on your arse. Secret ingredient. Everclear! Don't say I didn't warn you.
Brisket tacos are to die for yum! Plus they are super nice and make you feel welcome :)
The service is quick and it starts with free chips and salsa. The enchiladas are incredibly popular and the drinks are BYOB. Leer más.
Casa Navarro has a strong following in Dallas, and the owner can be seen greeting customers as they arrive. The usual Tex-Mex is served here, and the prices are low for food and drinks. Leer más.
The Sunday burch is incredible: breakfast and lunch items AND the chocolate fountain !
The sketchy neighborhood adds to the authenticity, and so does the fried pork rind taco (chicharrón). Fajita is their most flavorful meat though. Opens at 3PM and stays open past 2AM on weekends.
A lot of calories I hear per item, but they are some of the best quick Tex-mex calories I've scarfed down.. (downed like some fasting Tijuana hound dog).
It beats Uncle Julio's for fajitas which ain't bad.. right across the street (Cross St Douglas).
