    Casual place, but fun. They were able to quickly seat our large party. Our waitress was nice and prompt. Food was hot and tasty! The menu is varied. Plenty of TVs for viewing. Bar seating and 3 rooms for seating as well as a patio. Large party pickets can be split into 4 tickets .

    Grilled Shrimp Tacos
    Lily H.

    Went out to lunch with my intern group for my Birthday! Parking was okay, we parked in a lot across the street but it was a bit crowded. I ordered the grilled shrimp tacos which were very tender and came with avocados and a corn salsa. There was also a lime avocado ranch sauce on the side to dip. Pretty large portion I ate one and was already full! It also comes with cilantro like rice which was really flavorful and a jalapeño bean soup which wasn't spicy at all. The service was very fast and our waiter gave us free sopapillas for my birthday! I prefer my sopapillas to be dipped in honey and more cinnamon, but can't complain because it's free! Overall a pretty good Tex mex place.

    I desperately wanted to like this place because I've heard positive things about it. I've been here on three separate occasions, and the service each time has been increasingly worse. The first time I walked in with my friend, we asked if they were still serving food, and there was a long drawnout pause before they said that the kitchen was closed. I felt that this was odd she could just set the kitchen was closed and moved on, but however, we left went to get something to eat somewhere else. The second time we showed up, we ate at the bar and the bartender was OK. There was no warmth, but he wasn't blatantly rude. This last time I ordered online thinking that it would provide a better service and I was highly mistaken. When I showed up to pick up my order, I expected to pay extra for the bacon and I noted it in the online. They did not take Apple Pay and they could not charge my card that was already on file. He said that I would either have to go get a card or get cash so I left to go get cash. As I was driving to go get the cash he canceled the order. There was no warmth in him. He could not even charge me for something that was a similar price. He was rude and nasty, and I believe he assumed I was going to steal the food because he immediately grabbed it and ran to the back. I will not be going here again if I can help it because I don't think they actually like Black people black women or maybe it's just me I can't be sure. I am not able to tell which snake is poisonous. UPDATE: I never received my refund.

    Very tasty Tex-Mex. The parking is very nice for this place too. Be careful about the weekend, it gets really busy and has very long wait. The ambience is very friendly and inviting. Lots of tv screens and lots of space.

    Texas created Tex-Mex. So when you eat Tex-Mex in Texas, the bar isn't just high -- it's non-negotiable. E Bar Tex-Mex in Dallas is one of those places you constantly hear about. Packed, popular, and said to be a must-try among the locals. Naturally, expectations were set....high! Let's get straight to the food. The queso? Good. Smooth, well-executed, but not the kind that makes you pause mid-chip and rethink your life. I've had better, but if I'm being honest. The shrimp tacos were probably the highlight -- fresh, clean, cooked properly -- but again, nothing that demands a return visit. They do the job, they just don't say much. And that's really the issue here. At this price, and hype point, I want something to scream. A sauce, a spice, a signature move -- something that reminds you why Tex-Mex is its own genre. Instead, everything felt safe. Polished, sure. Memorable? Not quite. E Bar isn't bad by any stretch. But in a city -- and a state -- where Tex-Mex is seen in such high regard, "pretty good" just won't pull me in.

    E Bar Queso
    Helen C.

    Pulled up to E Bar on a Thursday night around 8:30 PM and while they've got a small parking lot, they only had one spot left and I'd imagine it's pretty challenging to park on a weekend. I'm not a queso connoisseur by any means, but E Bar's is one that lives rent free in my brain. We also grabbed margs for the table and they are very strong. One was enough to get most of us sloshed and even the mango marg tasted like it was pure tequila. Chips were thin and lightly crunchy that just tells you they've gotta be pretty fresh. E Bar Queso (4/5): Just a really nice quality, smooth, salty yellow queso. The ground beef was nicely seasoned and the avocado added a lighter creaminess, but I think just the queso would have been a solid choice as well. Creamy Spinach Queso (4.25/5): I'm usually whatever about creamed spinach, so it really surprised me when I preferred this over the original! It almost felt like a spinach artichoke dip throughout decadent white cheese.

    Super super super spot!!!!! 10/10 any day. Staff, food, drinks, atmosphere, vibes, price you name it all 10/10. Come here if you can! The steak street tacos were amazing and Jorge's tacos were phenomenal. I would bet everything on this menu is excellent.

    We tried E-bar for the first time recently and thought it was a solid tex-mex option in Dallas. Of note, this was a takeout order. We got the chips and queso, beef fajitas, and a cheese enchilada. The queso was a white queso which was delicious and also came with a great red salsa. The fajitas were good, but I have had better beef fajitas and usually like having the bone marrow butter with it. The cheese enchilada was also very delicious and I would order that again. Overall, this was a solid spot and I would be excited to go eat there in person next time and try more items on the menu.

    Veggie nachos were very good

    I met with the family here for a meal and it was great. There is a parking lot right across the street to park at for free. They had a table ready for the 5 of us and service was all smiles. It wasn't crowded for an early weekday dinner. Oh how I do love a good Tex-mex meal. I was torn between spinach and mushroom or cheese enchiladas but decided to go with the latter without regret. I had no complaints with the fresh salsa and chips while waiting for the food. The food was ready quickly. Refried beans were on point as well as the rice. The two enchiladas were filled with a nice thick savory cheese. I had one topped with queso and the other with chile con carne. The queso was delightful, but the carne sauce worked better to break up all the cheese. I tried the veggie nachos and they were good as well. The chips were placed individually on the plate and were thick enough to hold up to the weight of the toppings. I was happy to eat here and will return to have the spinach and mushroom enchiladas.

    Fast pace place. We were greeted very quickly, appetizer came out in timely manner between our entree and our food was great. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat with friends this is it. The Bar is fairly large and games are always on.

    Came here on cinco de mayo for lunch. Our server was so inviting and sweet, she was also super attentive (wish I knew her name). I order the steak fajitas and elote Mexican corn. Baby, everything was a 10/10. I love that this place is such a hidden gem and ducked off. I love supporting small businesses and this place is amazing. I will be coming back, regularly. Oh yeah, the queso was amazing as well! It was even better as leftovers the next day! Highly recommend

There was a time when Meso Maya was the go-to for upscale Mexican in Dallas. The culinary scene in Dallas has changed so much that it is not longer the case. But the downtown Meso Maya remains an icon and continues to deliver consistently good food and service. The restaurant still has the warm ambience and remains in good condition even after all these years. It was too hot to sit on the patio so we ate indoors. The interior is smaller than I remember. The restaurant still starts you out with complimentary chips which are strips, and a smoky, spicy salsa. it was great. I started with the a mescal margarita and it was excellent. The kid had Topo Chico and the wife had Prosecco. Everyone enjoyed their drink. For entrees, the wife had her favorite, the vegetable budin, which is like a lasagna. The flavors were deep and rich. She loved it. I tried the carne tacos and they were excellent! The meat was tender and smoky. The beef had been marinated for a wonderful flavor. Good quality with no fat. I usually avoid ordering beef at restaurants because I often get more fat than meat which I detest, but not at Meso Maya. Our server Luis was very good. Present when we wanted and not when we did not. Overall, the restaurant was a hit on every level--ambience, service, and food. We like the downtown location the best and will return.

I remember when they were located further down Lemmon Avenue in a much smaller space. They've since moved uptown, and the new digs are beautiful and very inviting. After we were seated, our server, Ruben, greeted us with a warm smile. We were especially excited since we arrived just in time to catch their lunch specials--and there are plenty of great ones to choose from. We started with a couple of frozen margaritas and a cup of queso while browsing the menu. The margaritas were spot-on--not wimpy at all, with just the right kick. And the queso? Absolutely outstanding--some of the best we've had in a long time. The salsa was excellent as well. My wife chose the lunch-sized chicken quesadillas, while I went with the #7 lunch special, which included a cheese taco, a chicken enchilada, and a beef enchilada topped with chili con carne. Our meals arrived after a short wait, and everything exceeded expectations. My wife was thrilled with the portion size--it was just right--and she was all smiles after her first bite. The chicken fajita meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. My lunch special hit the spot and delivered exactly what I was craving. We had a fantastic experience at Mia's Tex-Mex. Ruben took excellent care of us throughout our visit, and we'll definitely be back again soon!
