Megan MastersJuly 28, 2018Nice little Tex Mex spot. I was told the “mambo taxi” was the drink of choice, so managed to take a couple in. Since that’s what people do. It helped me cool down on a really hot dallas night!- Meredith WarrenSeptember 11, 2018Hi, brisket tacos, I love you. The menu is wonderful and the margaritas always hit the spot. Their super popular mambo taxi is a fun way to enhance the frozen margarita.
The Wall Street JournalAugust 3, 2014This regional food is a way of life in Dallas, and this franchise is a Mecca for it. Get a Texas-size margarita with your El Ray's combo: a cheese enchilada, beef taco and pork picoso tamale. Read more
Social News NetworkAugust 14, 2013If you're in the mood for Tex Mex, you gotta try Mi Cocina. Their Nachos Locos are is what they do best - besides their queso. Their Rico Salad is also great with chili vinaigrette. Great for families
TonyFebruary 28, 2016Upscale Tex Mex place in Uptown which automatically means you're gonna pay more for pretty much everything. But the food is good and as others have said the Mambo Taxi drink is highly recommended.- Robyn HarmanSeptember 9, 2018This place is a local chain that serves consistent QUALITY tex-mex with a fun atomosphere. Two words: Mambo Taxi. They'll only serve you two. Get something with the Sunset Sauce.
PetitsuisseMay 19, 2013Mango Mambo Taxi for sure! The food here is really good and tasty! And the waiter, juvinal aka spider was super friendly! I like this place :)- Gander "The Moderns" section for Pollo en Limon y Chile: grilled veggies, your choice of beef or chicken plus guacamole. Low carbs with your veggies deliciously prepared. Yum!
Robert IrisSeptember 15, 2013Mambo Taxi (swirled margarita) is very good - seating at the bar is a great place to people watch.- Greg AllbrightJanuary 16, 2012Sunset fajitas and brisket tacos are the stars of the menu. Mambo taxi makes everything else taste good too.
Steve CiminoFebruary 24, 2012Get the mombo. This place would be so much Better if they lowered the music some, so you could hear your own partys conversation.
Sabrina DeeApril 22, 2011Who know u could get a swirl of all three fab flavors!!! It's called a dilemma, it looks like fire tastes like sweet icey heaven!
- both the cheese and chicken enchiladas are divine. best in dallas in my opinion! and wash 'em down with a mambo taxi.
Lin HumphreyAugust 5, 2011Dilemmas marry the mambo taxi and mango margarita in a tall glass for $2 more. Perfect for the patio.
HTEDanceSeptember 27, 2014Total blast on a Friday night. This is the place to start the bar crawl for Friday Funday!!!
Melissa DelgadoJuly 29, 2011If you like some spice in your drink get "la llorona" if you like margaritas and sweet drinks get a "dilemma"
I always want to try something new, but it's impossible to stray away from the beef fajita quesadillas!
The Mambo #5 is amazing. If you get Rollo as a waiter, you are very lucky!
It tells you something when there hasn't been a Tip in over 14months and before that another year....
Filip RokitaAugust 12, 2017Skinny margarita 👍🏻,kids food "ok", noisy fans trying to cool outside air down. Quick service though!
LogoTVJuly 6, 2011Who doesn’t love standard Tex-Mex food!? But the Mambo Taxis are not standard at all... good luck with those! –Phillip, The A-List: Dallas
Robert Dwight CharterJanuary 22, 2012Avoid Saturday nights. Obnoxious people with tacky manners and you must shout above the din.
Shei UngerJune 6, 2010Frozen mango with sangrita swirl...tasty and a little less sweet; so you can drink excessively...
Brett RSeptember 3, 2011Service can be painfully slow but the place is overwhelmed. Spicy Mango-Rita is hot but one is enough.

"This place is amazing. Hole in the wall. Great people & vibe. AMAZING food & margarita. I don't like black beans, their black beans are amazing. Don't like mayo, the aioli is killer. Carnitas. Get em."
