Los Molcas Tacos Bar and Grill

I love the look of this restaurant. I love that you can sit yourself and order at the front. The food could have been better it was a little bland. They had amazing customer service and were super nice.

Amazing authentic Mexican food. The enchiladas reminded me of my mothers’. Great, friendly staff too. I was served kindly even though I was the only one there.

I wasn't expecting anything Great, but I was wrong. The enchiladas I had were great!! The place was very busy when I got there. My food did take long to get. Overall it was outstanding.

A friend recently recommended a new taco restaurant in downtown Arlington, and I decided to visit today. The establishment exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere, complemented by its impeccable cleanliness and cozy interior. I ordered the steak taco and the Chile relleno, both of which exceeded expectations. The steak taco was exceptional, featuring moist, perfectly cooked steak enhanced by the subtle sweetness of grilled onions, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. The Chile relleno, filled with savory ground beef, was equally impressive, offering a rich and satisfying taste. For those seeking high-quality tacos and authentic dishes, I strongly endorse this restaurant as a dining destination.

Best Shrimp Cocktail I’ve ever had! I try to come here at least once a month. My husband really enjoys the los Molcas tacos. Last time I tried the Jarritos Molcas cocktail and it was excellent and quite large!

My favorite chicken tacos. I am picky about chips and salsa and this place is the best I’ve found in Texas (they don’t serve the salsa warm, which is a huge plus). Great hot sauce and solid happy hour deals. Family business vibes and fantastic service. Love coming here!

The cafe de olla was 5 stars. The taco plate was ok , (chicharron was the best, the al pastor and barbacoa were below average). I asked for flour tortillas and got corn. The menudo was volcano-level hot and when we asked for rice to make it more eatable, we were told they didn't have rice which for a Mexican restaurant is not believable for 11 am on a Saturday. In short, i would only return to have a cafe de olla to go. I know they are understaffed and may explain their operational inefficiencies. however with so many other options, all around will probably not return. Also, note that street parking is limited and requires you to back in.

I've been here twice now since I work next door and the food is amazing! Lovely service, too. The women who have been working the bar/ringing in the food have been amazing with explaining dishes and providing excellent service. Food has come out quickly, within just a few minutes, and is always phenomenal. The cooks know what they are doing 💛

Went back with the hubs for breakfast tacos! $3.75ea. for flour tacos. We each got a bacon & egg taco then a potato & egg. The flour tortillas seem homemade and are thin, hot & delicious! The hot sauces are also good. I love they serve the trio to try! The green is a little too hot for me but has good flavor. We appreciated the small basket of chips and cold mild salsa. Coffee is good and husband loves drinking out of the clay mugs. Friendly service. Order & pay at the counter and they'll bring the food to your table. We'll be back!

Salsa was Fi-Yah! Chips were fresh...the Parrillada with shrimp was delicious. Everything was flavorful...the tortillas de masa were delish! 4 stars instead of five for not having sweet and low, and my husband hates ordering at the counter...he would rather have a physical menu. Cute environment, music is great, and the workers were so nice. We will come again!

This place came highly recommended by a local foodie group. Im from california and am PICKY when it comes to mexican food. I honestly gave up on my hunt for good mexican here. I ordered the chicken enchiladas with green sauce. Everything was sooooooo flavorful and fresh. Sometimes, the chicken is dry when it comes to enchiladas, but they were moist. I had 2 of them left over and ordered a side of rice and beans to take home. Salsas were amazing as well. The spicy green was my favorite. My chips were a little well done, i wanted to say something, but i honestly wasnt going to eat all of them since i was alone. Will def be back to try the tacos.

First time here and let me tell you this, Im a big food critic and I Loved the Breakfast plates and Fajita tacos. The chips and Salsa's are fresh and Hot. This will be a place I'll be coming back to again and again. Customer service is great aswell, they are fast with bringing the food out. Freshly made to order.

I love this place! Ive tried the green chicken enchiladas and the tacos molcas. They were both super yummy, very fresh! I also tried the horchata and I enjoyed it, it had a strong cinnamon flavor. I love the decorations, it's very visually appealing to sit down and eat here. The staff members are always prompt and kind.

The second visit was better than the first one. Great food, great atmosphere and great service. This is a perfect little place that is not a franchise restaurant. Order the corn tortillas.

Absolutely love this place. From the moment you are greeted at the door to when you place your order and your food arrives. Friendly, fast and fabulous food. We were fortunate enough to see salsa dancing the night we came in. Loved everything about this place.

Great food! Amazing Service!!! Everything is priced well! We love it here! We had the best time playing the Loterria on our last visit! I hope they continue making that a Thursday event monthly! Beautiful restaurant!

Muy buena comida 100% recomendable. Personal muy amable. Todo muy limpid. Agua de limon 10/10 . Definitivamente casa Que venga a Texas comere aqui.

This spot ended up being a savior for me on a Saturday night. I was at Division Brewing and Growl records for music and beer. I had planned on getting a burger or pizza when I got there but they closed right at 8:55 leaving me starving. I asked around and heard about this taco spot, it was right next-door so I just had to walk next-door. I sat down pretty quick and got my food within about 15 minutes. It save me for sure. The tacos had great flavor and I was satisfied. I went back for more music and beer lol

We were hanging out at the new Cidercade and wanted to grab a bite to eat. Found this gem just a few mins away. Overall this place is great. I would probably give this place 4.5 stars. Everything about this place was solid. The service was good. The salsas are solid and the chips and salsa that they provide are really good. The chips were warm which is always a good sign. Got the taco plate special with 2 pastor and 1 barbacoa taco which includes a daiquiri. The tacos were really good but I would say that there are better quality tacos in DFW. I would say if the pastor meat and tortilla were grilled a little more so that it can caramelize more that would have brought the tacos to another level. The special was $15 which is really solid especially when you include the drink which was good.

Authentic Mexican food, great service and fun music. Best Mexican restaurant in Arlington.

5.0 - Service 3.0 - Taco, flour, beef fajita. 3.8 - Taco, flour, chicken fajita. 4.5 - Tortilla chips.

The food is absolutely delicious! I've tried every taco and they are all equally good. The service is quick and the staff is attentive. Good music always playing.

Wow!!! This has become our "go-to" when we're downtown Arlington working at F6 Gallery. The Shrimp Cocktail and the street tacos are so good!! Excited to try more from the menu!

I see myself visiting Los Molcas again and again forevermore after one brief but indelible visit. For me and my schedule it's in a convenient location, right there on Abram Street next to Shipley's Donuts in bustling downtown Arlington. I like the busy setting, especially in the mornings -- helps me to wake up and get going. And Los Molcas' spicy green salsa really woke me up, haha. I initially decided it was a little hot for me, but I couldn't stop eating it. It's super spicy but so herbaceous, it all balances out. I enjoyed 2 breakfast tacos on corn tortillas with chorizo and potato, plus a side of rice and refried beans. Everything was excellent and affordable made in house, and there's soooo much on the menu I look forward to trying, their Molcajetes (obviously) and their machaca, especially. And I really want to visit on a weekend when they serve café de olla, which is coffee in a clay pot, made with cinnamon and piloncillo (raw unrefined sugarcane, yum). Los Molcas has a full bar, happy hour as well. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The owners are a husband and wife team from Monterrey, Mexico who know how to make delicious food from scratch. Can't wait to go back.

These have got to be the best carne asada tacos I have ever had. Me and my bf are here from CA and the tacos were so incredibly good that we came here both days that we were here in Dallas. Service is great too. If we're ever in Dallas again, we will definitely come back.

I'm sure their food is good and service is on point. But is the price a bit too high. These restaurants are not going to make it. Charging these prices. I know it's inflation time. But you not building a loyal customer base. A family got to think twice about going out to eat these days. Just a thought. I stop going to many restaurants just didn't see the value

Was feeling hangry and decided to try a restaurant from my wish list and Los Molcas was the chosen one of the night. Devoured a parrillada and it was delicious the chicken was soft and full of flavor the beef was cooked to perfection I am not a big fan of sausage but I finished all my meats and my frijoles charros uy papa they hit the spot. Finished with a margarita ayayayay! Service was exceptional the vibe here is very welcoming I am definitely coming back. All the parties involved were satisfied thank you Los Molcas

Went in on a Sunday afternoon and had their menudo and and it was so good! Can't wait to go back soon.

5 star service young lady very helpful plus happy hour every day nice everything was perfect on a nice chill Sunday would definitely recommend if your ever in the Arlington area near cowboy stadium

For the money they have really good specials Got their taco plate which includes three street tacos, rice, beans, and a good margarita for $15. Recommended.

Food delicious!!! Service is fantastic!!! Ambiance is perfect!!!! Definitely recommend this restaurant. This is our second time coming and perfect as the first time!!!!!

I now have to try and find reasons to be in Arlington to go eat here again. My family and I had a Sunday afternoon late lunch early dinner. We ordered one of the specials, camarones I à la diabla and two different taco plates of both carnitas, chicken, and al pastor. Great portion sizes to start off. The beans tasted homemade, and the corn tortillas were obviously made from scratch there in the kitchen and were amazing. The chipotle inspired sauce for the camarones was some of the best I've had in a long time. We also asked for a sample of their salsa and they brought a creamy green salsa, a red chile salsa that reminded me of New Mexico red chile, and another one that tasted like a chile de árbol. We ate up everything on our plates so quickly that I forgot to take a couple photos but you'll just have to go for yourself and see. It is well worth the visit! The restaurant is very clean and spacious and has a nice bar. There are a few TVs on the wall to make sure you're not missing sports game. Overall a good atmosphere, good for families and large groups too. The staff was super friendly and very attentive to our needs. Great to have an authentic Mexican food option near downtown Arlington.

Just moved here from SoCal, been looking for good, authentic Mexican food (not Tex mex) and this place is the best I've had so far! Will definitely be back.

I went for lunch to Los Molcas Taco Bar and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was quick. Definitely recommend this authentic Taco restaurant.

We came in for breakfast and had chilaquiles, machacado con huevo, and a breakfast burrito. All were fantastic, and the machacado in particular was seasoned so well. We also had café de olla, and it was amazing. If you like coffee, this may change your life.

We stopped in late on Friday. The daily specials advertised a taco plate and margarita for $15. This was our first time here, and a great deal that allowed us to try food and drink. U order at the counter, seat yourself, and then they bring everything to your table. Staff was friendly as soon as we walked in. Chips and salsa before the meal. We will return and try more.

Food is amazing. The owner is super nice. I recommend the beef tacos! Super good! Ans their salsas are amazing!! Love the music! They always have good music playing (Norteño)

These tacos are the best and they come out super hot. Flavor is chefs kiss and their flan is the best flan I've ever had. I'll drive 30 minutes just to have their tacos and flan. And they bring you out three different salsas which is nice. Service is great, everyone's super friendly and the ambiance is nice too. They have a little bar with lots of frozen margarita flavors. Love it!

Been here about a year ago I ordered sopes and they were good. Today I tried the chili relleno, I asked for queso instead of the red sauce only to find out when I got it it was like Rico cheese sauce, kind of disappointed.. chicken had a good taste, just lots of of fat and cartilage so it was hard for me to finish my plate

This place is AMAZING!!!! They have excellent food and outstanding service. The entire staff is so nice and helpful. From the salsa, to the entrees to the drinks. This place has it ALL. Not to mention the beautiful atmosphere inside the restaurant. The owner comes by to check on the tables all the time and is so sweet and helpful with anything you may need. This is by far the best authentic Mexican restaurant I have been to in Arlington. I can't believe this place isn't more packed. If you haven't been to Los Molcas, please come try it out!!!!

Awesome meal. Our new favorite Mexican restaurant in Arlington, TX. We ate the Molcajete dish. triple meat combo, beef and chicken fajita strips, and smoked pork sausage served with homemade corn tortillas, beans and rice, and a hunk of grilled cheese panela. The meat is served in a molca (stone bowl) with fresh onions and a side of three different hot sauces.

Food is increíble, so is the owner! Great tacos and drinks, right off Abram! I bring my girl here all the time and are never disappointed

Really great food! Fast service and chef came out to check on us. We will be back to try the grilled fajita plates. Not pictured is the taco plate, which was equally delicious. Especially loved the meats and beans. Will be back!

The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. I took my young sister and she is super picky and didn't like the enchiladas. They immediately offered to make her something else. The music was such a great vibe. 10/10 will be visiting here again.

Been here twice now and it's yummy! Second time we tried the queso...nah. Wouldn't order it again, it was giving nacho cheese sauce from a gas station/movie theatre. They are such friendly people and know how to make a good taco plate for sure! I love their tortillas. Definitely homemade. Place is cute too, bar seating, regular tables, high tops, or outdoor.

Went here for lunch, it was really good. The cashier was just so friendly and cool, she stood out. It was nice inside and they had outside seating, parking was incredibly difficult. I got 3 tacos, all flour and a Jamaica. They didn't have chicaron but I got something else. The tacos took about 7 minutes, which was pretty good. I took the tacos to go. I tried the chorizo first, it was really good, next up the pastor was good too, I really liked the barbacoa, it was a perfect taco. The green sauce here was absolutely amazing, although it was yellow. It was all so flavorful, I'd definitely go back.

Went here last night because I wanted to try another Mexican place around Arlington. I was very happy to stumble across this establishment. For Thursday night, there was no one in there, which was very surprising. But sat at the bar, and they told us to go upfront and order when we were ready. Prices were super reasonable and the food was great. They kept the chips flowing and the salsa I thought was super tasty. The drink I got was a mango tango, which again I thought was to die for. Then, when my chicken fajitas came out, I was even more pleased with the flavor and overall consistency of quality food. My favorite part was the corn tortillas. They were actually made fresh right there in the back. definitely can't wait to come back and try some other dishes.

I didn't take pictures of my food. I'm sorry. But this place is sooo damnnn good!! You have to come here and try this super authentic Hispanic food. I rate this place an easy 10/10. The listed items were purchased here- Barbacoa Quesadilla plate, Sopes Carnitas, French fries, Queso Flameado, Taco corn Carnitas, Margaritas/Daiquiris, and Vampiro. All the above straight fantastic! I will with no doubt in my mind go back to this place in the future. Many many times down the road. The food was amazing! You won't believe me until you try it for yourself. Thank me later. God Bless.

The food and salsa is great. Their hot churros are amazing! It's a family-owned business that I love to go to.

This place is authentic, and the food is amazing! Corn tortillas are made fresh to order, food portions are huge! Great atmosphere, and prices!

Excellent place. Service was very nice. Drinks in unique cups. Would definitely come back.

Going with 4 till I try something else Chips were great,,, salsa had fantastic flavor!!! Got a chirizo and egg good Also Barbacoa,, actually looks and tastes like Barbacoa!! Best I have tried in dfw!!! Will be back

Very great food and service and the chips and queso were hot and very great. I had the chapechana taco that was very great

Tasty food, pleasant service, clean. My shrimp tostadas were wonderful, planning to go back for more!

We ordered food last night was told it take 30-40 mins arrived around that time to pick up the order and they had lost the ticket. So waited another 30 mins only to get home and open the food it was ice cold! I will not be ordering from here again was really looking forward to trying this place

Family restaurant with welcoming mood and amazing food. Homemade salsas are a step above. Highly recommend

Very impressed with this place. Quality ingredients across the board. Friendly staff. Great interior with a nice bar. The food was fairly priced and impressive. The Molcetas Tacos come with a large portion of well seasoned, well cooked meat along with a great tortilla (I'm assuming made in house). The red and green salsas were both very good. I chose the Mexican Burger because it looked like it had good bread (typically if the burger has good bread, it also has good meat). I was not disappointed. It tasted flame grilled and was very large with a hefty portion of avocado. Everything on it was very good, I would go as far to put it as a contender for one of the best burgers in Arlington. Overall: Very good food, and I get the feeling that the staff cares about their menu. Price point is very good! The interior and location are all great as well! Don't forget about the bar! They just opened up so give this place a try!
