Muchacho

Three women going out to enjoy some good food and drinks. Fatima Yuliet M was our server and she was awesome. This was our 1st time ever going and we needed some directions. She was able to tell us the specials and what drinks were the best to try. Man she wasn't wrong. Please don't drink more than 2 of any of the drinks that are available including the wine. Our drinks were made so right!! There was a bartender that I wish I got her name but she's short and Hispanic and man to watch her make drinks was a masterpiece!! Our food was delicious and filling! The atmosphere was great and everyone was nice. We were able to fellowship with each other without having to talk to loudly. We will definitely be back!

The food here has been spectacular every time I’ve come. They even let me bring my small dog when we sit outside on the patio, which I really appreciate. I brought my mom when she was visiting from out of town, and she loved it too. The cocktails are amazing, and the service is just as great. Truly 11/10 — highly recommend!

Nice upscale Mexican restaurant with fantastic service. The queso Muchacho with brisket is one of the best cheese dips I’ve had. The combo # Juan is a great way to sample many items because it includes a beef taco, cheese enchilada, chicken taco, guacamole, along with beans and rice.

Muchacho has become my favorite Mexican restaurant. Lively bar with excellent drinks. Comfortable patio. Food is delicious. Wait staff is friendly and knowledgeable concerning the menu and ingredients. Can be extremely busy on weekends and happy hours into dinner. Parking can be a challenge since this is a popular area for shopping and dining. Difficult to access with wheelchairs.

Me and my friends recently had the pleasure of visiting Muchacho. As soon as we sat down we were greeted by our server Leonardo. Leonardo provided us with excellent service and he was very knowledgeable about the menu. For my meal I decided to get the carnitas fajitas as per his recommendation and they were delicious ! I also had two drinks with my meal and they were so good. I wish i remembered the name. Overall, our server made our dining experience enjoyable we will definitely be back.

If you're looking for authentic Tex-Mex in Dallas, Muchacho is a must-visit! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, perfect for a casual night out or a fun family dinner. The menu is extensive, featuring everything from classic enchiladas to mouth-watering tacos. I highly recommend the fajita , which was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The fresh guacamole is a standout, made right at your table, and pairs perfectly with their crispy tortilla chips. The service was exceptional; our server Jose was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, providing great recommendations. Don't forget to try their signature margaritas – they add the perfect kick to the meal! Overall, Muchacho delivers a fantastic dining experience that captures the essence of Tex-Mex cuisine. I can't wait to go back!

We had a fabulous lunch here today. Reyna was our waitress and she was lovely. We both got the fajitas & they were so delicious & tender! The queso was insane and so tasty. I’ll be dreaming about it!! The young ladies at the hostess stand were so nice too. They were very kind & helpful. The whole experience was great. Can’t wait to try your margaritas & have a date night here!

I had a great lunch with a friend at Muchahcho the other day. I had not been in a while and rember it is alaways good. It was excellent - the food was fantastic and our Server Alphonso P was exceptional. He was helpful and did not rush us and checked on us to make sure everything was satisfactory. If you have a chance request Alphonso!

MEDIOCRE. Dallas wants to love this place, and I dk why? Their Mexican food is above average, for sure! I'll give them that. But the service is BEYOND subpar. We sat at the bar (multiple times) and had to ask for more chips, or a water refill, or our next drink. The service is TERRIBLE, AT THE BAR!! We witnessed the bar staff shooting-the -shit with each other (looking at phones, comparing texts), And not attending to patrons. It's wild. They clearly have a good community, where the staff loves each other, which is great!! But the patron experience suffers. Service can take 10 mins for a drink. That's WILD at this location!

When in Dallas, find a bougie Tex-mex restaurant!! Came here for a friend's 60th birthday party and it was fabulous, just like her!! The restaurant itself is a bit tight but loved the decor and big windows all through the place. Plenty of parking as it's part of a connected space. Our waiter was on point and helped our party of 12 navigate through the menu flawlessly, even the gluten free couple felt comfortable ordering without prejudice!! The complimentary chips and salsa were def handmade and has a kick, so watch out! The margaritas were strong, cold, and perfect. The tamarindo was my go to and the ghost pepper had a slight heat but I could've had 5 of those babies, no problemo!! Queso was straight cheese, eat it fast cuz it'll harden. The hamachi Agua chile was more Asian style in my opinion, but very good. The brisket sopas were the fan favorite!! Ended up ordering a second serving!! Steak/shrimp Fajitas & brisket taquitos were a hit!! The shrimp were massive and loved the fresh tortillas!! They were kind enough to let us bring in our own cake, so we didn't try any dessert, but everything looked lovely!! Will def hit them up again when in town!! There is a Southlake location which is closer that I will also need to check out, plus I read they have a happy hour. Woohooo!!

Muchacho Dallas .... Fall patio vibes with repeat potential Muchacho Dallas on a breezy Sunday afternoon was an instant vibe! I chose patio seating to soak in the nice weather & good energy. I started with the chips & salsa, which came out fresh and crisp: Tip* mix both salsas together...and its a perfect pairing Then came the Picadillo Empanadas: spiced beef picadillo, oaxaca cheese, avocado crema, pickled red onions, and pepitas. Let me just confess that the pickled red onions were the star of the show, hands downs. The only miss for me was the inside of the empanadas. Unfortunately ,a little too doughy for my taste. I was hoping for more crunch to match the flavor. Next up were the Steak Nachos: generously topped with refried beans and cheese but a little light on chips. They came with guac, sour cream, and taqueria-style pickles. Flavor of the steak was pretty good , but for $20, I expected a bit more Wowwww factor. Overall, Muchacho has the vibes, the service was chill, and the setting is perfect for a weekend unwind. I'll definitely give it another try. However, next time, I'll be sticking with the classics like enchiladas or tacos. #MuchachoDallas #DallasEats #SundayVibes #PatioSeason #FoodieFinds #DallasBrunch #TacoLover

I stumbled across this place for dinner on a Saturday night and it was packed! There was about a 20 minute wait, which wasn't bad considering all the people waiting. They were turning tables fast. Service was really good! I had a delicious margarita (I think it was the house one), amazing queso (seriously it was like a BOWL of queso and it was outstanding), and mole enchiladas which were superb! As someone from Southern California, I liked this Mexican food wayyy more than Tex Mex. Definitely would come back!

Always enjoy Muchacho! The food and service is very good!! Keeps me coming back. The only thing I am not really fond of is the hostess that circulates throughout your meal . I am sure she is there to be sure you don't go over your allotted time, but is somewhat annoying all the same. But luck for me I didn't want to spend over and hour and a half, unlike the table close by. 2 people let and they moved the other 2 people to another table . Seemed odd but I guess that's life

Muchacho is a cute upscale-casual Tex-Mex restaurant. Or send to be very popular with the locals. It was pretty crowded. I had to wait for a seat at the bar. I saw one review that suggested making a reservation. I agree. They have a pretty nice selection of margaritas. I had the spicy margarita. It was good. There were two obvious vegetarian options: rojo enchilada and cauliflower tacos. The bar tenders were very busy so I didn't want to ask a bunch of questions, but I did ask which of those items was recommended. The couple next to me and bar tender suggested the tacos. The portion was large, and the food was delicious! Next time I'm in Dallas, I'll go back.

We overall had a great experience at Muchacho's. We started off with a house margarita, a skinny margarita, and their queso. The house margarita and queso were excellent; however, we were not a huge fan of the skinny margarita (it tasted pretty bland). We then split the combo beef/chicken fajitas, which were fantastic. The fajitas came with great toppings, tortillas, and made for an overall great meal. The service and atmosphere here was also friendly. This has been one of the better Tex Mex places I've had in DFW and I am likely to come back.

Just as other reviews have stated, their service is incredibly rude and they rush their customers to finish quickly so that they can seat more people. I understand restaurant economics, but it's truly unacceptable to treat your paying customers like they're a burden and rush them out! Additionally, water was spilt on my purse while sitting at the bar and the female bartender with long blonde hair didn't even acknowledge it or provide napkins. She also told me the wrong price for my margarita and refused to honor the price she said. Unless you're Jerry Jones, don't expect to be treated well here. This is a very pretentious establishment that lacks the fundamentals of hospitality. RUDE all around service, hectic atmosphere, and mediocre food - I recommend going somewhere else.

LOVE Muchachos! Always a solid and consistent place. Delicious Fajitas and homemade tortillas. Not to mention the queso and margaritas are a must!

We were seated right away and the chips and salsa arrived shortly after. We ordered drinks and then talked to waiter about suggestions. We ordered a chile relleno, fish tacos, and a steak. Service and food were fantastic!

We had a reservation in advance, and were immediately seated upon arrival. Service was excellent from the start. We ordered guacamole and a salad for an appetizer which I both highly recommend. The chips are crispy and perfectly salted so expect to eat at least a basket! We ordered the fajitas for our entrees and I must say they're the best fajitas we've had in awhile. The steak was grilled to perfection as well as the chicken. We will be back soon!

Stopped in for a drink at the bar with friends. The place was full and very busy. Decor is great and the patio is nice. Menu looks great and I look forwarded to trying the food. Full menu at the bar is an option.

Muchacho has become our favorite Mexican restaurant. Beautiful decor Wait staff is always friendly and knowledgeable Try the salads and specialty drinks.

Seriously can't say enough about this place! Got the shrimp fajitas. To die for. Also, chips queso and guacamole for apps. The vibe is amazing and the entire staff was so welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend

First time at Muchacho. Really like the ambience and bar area although not a lot of tables. It seems. Most important tip: make a reservation! Service by Leonardo was very good although we did feel a little rushed at the beginning. They certainly work hard to turn tables quickly because there are always people waiting it seems. Really our only disappointment were the cocktails. The muchacho house margarita and Rio Paloma both were kind of bland and seemed pretty weak. The skinniest Lalo margarita was pretty good though. We started with guacamole, and it was excellent! my wife loved the homemade 1/2 tortilla sized chips. Personally, I thought they were kind of bland. They came with a red salsa and a green salsa. I really did not care for the red salsa, but the green was pretty good. For our entrées, we had the chicken flautas and the La Tampiqunia combination plate. The flautas were excellent and we recommend. The La Tampiqunia came with rice, beans, a dab of guacamole, 2 cheese enchiladas, and some CAB Flap steak. The cheese enchiladas were honestly pretty bland (really needed onions inside the enchiladas) and I didn't care for the ranchero sauce. Their rice and beans are very good and the flap steak was delicious melt in your mouth exceptional! I highly recommend the steak and would probably get that alone on a next visit.

First and foremost our server was very attentive and friendly and I'm sure he was only honoring management wishes. We got there (2 people) at 6:00 pm on a Wed. night. The restaurant was full but had a few vacant tables. However, we both felt rushed all night because the manger kept hovering. We were hoping to visit, have a cocktail and appetizer, dinner etc.... Our waiter asked us several times about ordering dinner while we were eating our appetizers. So we finally ordered dinner while we were still eating our appetizer. Our meal came out within 5 minutes of ordering. Once we were closed to be finished eating the manager came over with our bill. No one asked if we wanted anything else, a to-go box, nothing, just the bill. And then promptly at 8:00 pm our server told us we had to leave because a reservation was there for our table. I asked him - "So you are telling us we have to leave? Are you serious?" He apologized, glanced over at his manger standing behind him and said Yes, we need the table for a reservation. We had barely finished dinner. I cannot understand how this restaurant gets such a crowd. I'm not going to diss the food, it was ok, but there are many (It is Dallas, after all) Mexican restaurants that are just as good or better. I am 60 years old and have never been asked to leave after 2 hrs. P.S. - the margaritas are watery - order a beer!

I absolutely love this place! It isn't easy to get a reservation though, so I have to plan week's in advance to get in, but it is so worth it! The service is always exceptional and the cocktails and food are outstanding! This time we stopped in for lunch on a Saturday and I enjoyed the El Tigre cocktail. It was perfection! I started with the pozole verde which was hot and delicious. Then, I had the shrimp tacos which were fantastic. The shrimp were large and well seasoned. The portion was huge with three tacos and after having the pozole, I could only finish one taco and took the other two tacos home for lunch the next day. Still great day two!

Horrible first impression! Once we walked in we asked for a table for two and were immediately sat. They sat is directly behind the host stand by the front door but instead we asked if we could possibly move into the main dining room. The lady rolled her eyes at us and said they were full. I said I can see two booths that are open and she said without looking at us, sorry those are taken for a 1:00 reservation. It was 12:05! We sat down for 15 minutes to wait then finally I went back to the host stand and complained that now there were three tables open and they have time to accommodate us and still be fine for their 1:00. After all that we sat down and ordered queso, two waters and we split the steak fajitas for $60!!! Chips and salsa were the best thing we had. Beans were so salty they were uneatable. The steak was very chewy and tasted like straight propane. The place was decorated really nice and had a good vibe but horrible experience! Will not be back.

Ahi Tuna Taquitos, Pollo Perfecto, Chile Relleno Absolute perfection. We came for lunch on a Friday on the most beautiful day, and sat out on the patio. The chips are to die for, which such yummy salsas. My dining companion mentioned that these chips will hold up for an entire month even--just pop them in a zip lock bag or Tupperware and they magically stay fresh. The ahi Tuna taquitos were phenomenal and so flavorful I couldn't get enough. The Pollo perfecto truly lives up to its name--so amazingly tender and juicy, with all the flavors soaked in. The Chile relleno was delicious too. Great service, obsessed with this place and so grateful it's within walking distance for me!

Every single waiter and waitress at Muchachos has a beautiful soul. Their services aren't about only the job but about the customers as well. If you are a regular here you completely understand what that means. I call it the Muchacho family because that's what it is. That is the environment it creates. After a long day of working going to Muchachos will always brighten up the day. Everyone's smiles are so welcoming. We absolutely love coming to Muchachos. You should join the Muchacho family too! The food is also great! Everyone in the kitchen hustles and makes sure that the food is perfect everytime. They also have beautiful souls. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We come to Dallas a few times a month and almost always hit up muchacho's. Best chips in town - light, crispy, delicious. Our go to is chicken and steak fajitas. Classy place with a cool vibe and kid friendly.

Soooo good!!! One of my favorite Tex-Mex restaurants in Dallas. I got the tuna taco appetizer and it was delicious!! The service was great too. I would definitely recommend!!

Brunch & dinner at Muchacho is soooo good! Alfonso was our server - he was very attentive, nice and provided great recs! I had the chilaquiles with salsa verde and my fiancé had the choripapa tacos. Both were delish! They said next time we should try the brisket hash. We'll be back soon!

Ambience is fine; understand it's hard to have a truly distinct upscale space in a shopping mall. Service was in line with other restaurants in the area. Chips and salsa somewhat underwhelming. Enjoyed the complexity of the smoked brisket sopas. Tried a couple of different margaritas which were pretty standard and seemed like particularly poor value. Carnitas tacos were good but would struggle with an entire order of them. Steak fajitas were perfectly cooked and tender, tortillas also on point. Decent food, just wish it either had bolder flavors, was more refined, or both. Especially at this price point.

Downhill. This restaurant does not fit in Park Cities. Needs a management and staff overhaul. Service has plummeted dramatically and food quality is on par with El Chico.

Let's face it, the true test of a Mexican restaurant lies in its chips and salsa. Muchacho nails it every time! Their homemade tortilla chips were perfectly crispy, and the fresh salsa - both red and tomatillo - were bursting with flavor. A fantastic start to our meal! For lunch, my husband and I opted for the enchiladas. His chili con carne enchiladas were a classic Tex-Mex dream, loaded with flavor and topped with fresh onions. As for me, the chicken mole poblano enchiladas were pure comfort food. It had that rich, chocolatey depth that brought back wonderful memories from childhood. Our daughters shared the beef fajita nachos, which were a hit (minus the need for a little a little cutting as the pieces of steak on each nacho are a tad too big for a bite). The steak was cooked to perfection and full of flavor. But the cherry on top was our waiter, Jose. He was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our daughters feel special. They absolutely adored him for including their American Girl dolls in the conversation! Overall, Muchacho is a fantastic spot for delicious Mexican food and friendly service. The ambience of the restaurant is buzzing with conversation and loud, we didn't feel like we had to yell over one another. Muchacho is one of our favorites... We can't wait to go back! Definitely recommend!

Best Mexican food in Dallas! Steak fajitas are awesome!! Service was great! Great experience!

Went with a large group for a work dinner. The service was excellent, and so was the food. The tuna taco appetizer was spectacular. My octopus tacos were excellent as well with tender octopus legs and slaw on top with a tasty sauce. Really good experience.

Saturday night and this place was hopping! Stopped by a littler early for our reservation and grabbed a seat at the U-shaped bar which was totally full. The packed bar gave fun, weekend night vibes saying people were glad to be out and about. Service was prompt, consistent, and knowledgeable. Food was not super noteworthy and has a lot of competition with other Mexican restaurants in the area. Service and ambiance (both excellent) would be bigger draws for a return trip over flavors.

Great food and atmosphere! The drinks were worth it and the seating was comfy. Joaquin was an amazing server and I would 100% go back!

The place has a cool atmosphere and a really nice patio but it got super loud inside, not sure if it was all of the wood or just the crowd that night. Food is decent and predictable but I've had better. The Como La Flor margarita was a nice sweet margarita if that's your vibe.

This is an upscale Mexican restaurant that puts its own twist on the menu. Although the food was good, it was the margaritas that were the star of the show when I visited. My colleagues and I enjoyed a lovely meal with top shelf drinks that the staff was happy to keep coming. I ordered some grilled chicken tacos that were very tasty. The chicken was moist and flavorful without being overpowering. The chips and salsa were also good, although a tinge hot for me (I'm a wimp!) Overall, good restaurant with a decent menu. Worth coming to when you want something just a little nicer than the run of the mill.

I had the Tampiqueña and to tell the truth its the worst I had. The dish is typically prepared using beef tenderloin. Here they use flank-steak, which i believe is not worth the plate. Should have had the chicken perhaps?

This place is amazing, great ambiance it is like a little Mexico the staff is amazing so friendly, attentive and the definitely take pride in their work . Food is so good high quality cuisine ... and the manager Randa 's so amazing she always make sure you are having the best time creating a warm welcoming atmosphere ! This place would not be the same with this amazing team around ! Highly recommended

Not a bad little place. A corner location with cool interior - I really love horseshoe bars as you see fewer and fewer of them nowadays. Staff were very friendly. The menu is hard to tackle though. The smoked brisket sopes were lights out, a must try starter. For the mains, I struggled. I went with something I thought would be a safe bet, the primary combo. It was pretty par, nothing special. I saw many mixed and matched tacos going out, perhaps next time. 3.5 stars.

I've been craving Mexican food for a while so I was super excited to try this place out! We ordered the La Chilanga enchiladas and the combo marinated CAB flap steak and chicken breast fajita and they were both very delicious and flavorful! Personally, the La Chilanga enchiladas was a bit dry to my taste but still delicious and both the meat for the fajita were super tender and tasty!! They also provide with complimentary chips and two types of salsa The only bad experience to the dine-in was that we were given the wrong order and after the food was given, the servers did not stop by for a while nor looked at us while we were calling out to them. However, they provided with the right order in the end and because the food was good, I'd give 4 star instead of anything lower.

I always come here during my lunch breaks, the ambiance is amazing, food is phenomenal, staff is so kind and quickly attentive. I've told all my friends and family about this place. The food is plated in a very nice manner, but it's very home cooked tasting! And I say that as someone who is full 100% Mexican. Oh and let me not forget their happy hour drinks! To die for

Best place on earth. I got the green enchiladas and chili con Carne. And the queso was fabulous. I go here every time I can because they never cease to impress me. I have ordered to go and to stay, and when the quality remains

First time being here and boy was I impressed!! This was the nicest Mexican restaurant I have ever been in. Has such a lovely quiet ambiance that really makes the restaurant feel inviting and special. Perfect for any type of occasion! Service was great. Our waiter was attentive and funny. After we ate it did take him a while to come back to the table for us to get the check but my friend and I were deep in conversation so that may be why. We didn't mind and he was easy to flag down. Food was GREAT!! I got a skinny Marg that was strong yet tasty. For the price I appreciated that it did not taste watered down. For food I got the la Chilanga enchiladas which I can honestly say is the first time I have ever ordered enchiladas before. It was the perfect amount of food, including rice and beans, which were all delicious. When I come back I will definitely be ordered the exact same thing again!

This Mexican gem serves mouthwatering dishes and their Lalo Margarita is pure perfection. A must-try! Exceptional staff and a warm, friendly atmosphere make dining here a joy with top-notch service.

Came here for dinner and sat on the patio. The food was delicious. I had the beef fajita tacos with rice and beans. I also tried a spicy margarita - which was really good as well. The service was great and I would come here again.

My waiter was amazing! I wish I could've caught his name. He was super attentive, fast, and kind! I ordered the rojo enchiladas and the refried beans that came with were some of the best I've ever had. The decorations inside were nice as well!

Went on a date to this cool Mexican spot on a Saturday and had a great time. Started with an excellent margarita at the bar, and graduated to dinner at a table in the back. My dining companion is vegetarian so I decided to try a veggie option as well. Great decision because my mushroom fajitas were excellent! Great flavor on them and the add-ons just elevated it. And the garlic butter on the side? Positively criminal, glad I didn't realize there was garlic in it until the end of my meal or I might have eaten it all. Service was friendly, but did feel a bit rushed. We were pretty much told when the next reservation was when we were seated so I was half-watching the clock during the meal. Overall though, really nice restaurant with friendly staff and good food/drinks. I'd definitely return.

This place was good. Your average run of the mill Mexican places but extremely expensive. I was really excited to try the menu but the flavors described didn't come through in the actual dishes. For example, the queso states caramelized onions and jalapeños but couldn't taste either. It was still great! I did love the Ahi Tuna Taquitos. Super refreshing and tasty.

Hands down the best fajitas in DFW, or anywhere actually. Perfectly cooked steak fajitas hit every time we go! But the star of the show is the pork belly carnitas fajitas. Wow so amazing! Service is always top notch and great vibes!

Some of the best fajitas anywhere. Generous portion. Tortillas are great and chicken fajitas are superb. Comes with melted butter to put over the top. Guacamole is very good. Chips and salsa very good. Great vibes. Highly recommend.

I was really surprised with this place. They had really good drinks, my favorite was the mezcalarita. We had sopes to start which were perfect and crispy. I had the chilanga enchiladas and my husband got the fajitas combo. Everything was delicious. Our waiter was super helpful with recommendations. I will say make sure to have a reservation since it tends to get packed. Would come back.

The service was rude they told us to leave before we had finished. We had 1.5 hours and they told us to leave. We paid our bill and left a nice tip. Never go again. I needed some time as my husband is very ill.

Previously had a good experience here but last night was an upset. Went for dinner. A server toppled an entire glass of ice water on me. No apology or swift clean up. I sat with my side of the table full of water and ice (not to mention my wet clothes) and they went on to serve appetizers without thinking that there's a plate and silverware immersed in water. It took 20 minutes for them to come back which is when I told them to please clean and provide a plate and new silverware. By the time they got back with my plate and silverware the rest of the table had finished eating appetizers. The least the waitress could have been done was to figure out that it was a bad experience and rectify it but she acted like "it's only water".
