Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Dallas | Eater Dallas

"This East Dallas spot popped onto the city’s radar again when some celebrity guests stopped by as part of a wedding in the spring 2025, reminding us how good the golden tacos stuffed with picadillo beef are. The jumbo shrimp brochette platter is also a solid order, which diners can enjoy during dinner; brunch service sees dishes like the Naughty Burrito with refried beans and eggs, breakfast tacos, and Hangover Enchiladas with crispy bacon join the lineup. The decor here is pretty high-brow for Tex-Mex, with turquoise tile on the bar and coastal vibes all over. It also has a partially covered outdoor patio that’s a good hang when the weather allows. Parking can be tricky in this neighborhood, but there is usually a nearby street spot." - Amy McCarthy
