    Went to The Mexican for my birthday. I ordered the Del Mar Enchilada Trio which was really good’ I just wish it was served with rice.! Drink of choice was the Amor Apasionado (10/10). Towards the end my partner had them bring out dessert which was a Cuatro Leches. The cake was delicious’ I would definitely order again in the future.

    My visit to The Mexican in Dallas started off well but quickly took a disappointing turn. The food did not meet expectations, but the attentive service initially made up for it—until it didn’t. After finishing our meal and paying in full, we stayed briefly to finish our drinks and wrap up our conversation. Despite this, the manager stared at us for about 10 minutes before approaching with a curt "you ready," implying we needed to leave immediately. To make matters worse, he fabricated a scenario involving the busser, accusing us of not paying, which was completely untrue. What could have been a positive experience turned into one of the worst I’ve had in a long time. Others seated in the same area at the same time were not treated this way, adding to the feeling of unfair treatment. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place based on my visit.

    We just hosted a company event at The Mexican, and it was amazing! Our event was on the Lower Terrace, but we also got to enjoy dining in the regular seating area. Both spaces were fantastic, and the service was top-notch. Caylie was my point of contact before the event, and she was so helpful and professional—she really made the whole evening a breeze! In the dining area, Andre was our waiter, and he absolutely nailed it. He was super kind, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Out on the Lower Terrace, Vanessa, Sosa, and the rest of the team were incredible. They took care of every little detail and made the event feel effortless. This was our fourth annual company event, but our first time at The Mexican, and it totally set a new standard for us. It’s officially our go-to spot for future events. Highly recommend checking it out—whether you're planning something big or just grabbing dinner, you won’t be disappointed!

    Food and service was great. The only negative was we booked for 6 people and the table had 3 chairs and a bench. The bench was tough for 3 adults all dressed up. We did the meal family style which gave the chance to sample alot of items. Highly recommend but would specify table next time.

    The chicken enchiladas could’ve used some more flavor or spice like the other dishes. We also had the HAMACHI SASHIMI and Ahi Tuna. They both were spicy but very flavorful. Our waitress was very attentive and helpful. I believe her name is Amanda. Furthermore, this was our second time there and we both still enjoyed the experience.
