    Beef fajita covered in spicy queso
    John J.

    Casual and clean Mexico ambiance. Service was great as usual. Chips and three different dips/salsa to start. Love the top shelf margarita. Tried the steak veggie relleno. It was exceptional! Tender skirt steak with a relleno stuffed with veggies and cheese. A must try. The chicken flauta dinner received great compliments as well.

    3 sauces and a warm bean dip!
    Lisa S.

    Came to Dallas and found this little place! Chips are nice and 3 little dips! A warm black bean dip was delicious! My son ordered the ribeye fajita on the menu however they did not have them so he settled on the beef! They were pretty good! The flour tortillas were "store bought" the onions cooked down really nice! The chicken in the enchiladas was a little dry and the sauce was not very warm however they had a pretty good flavor! The servers kept our drinks full! Very cozy decorations! I recommend this place! Happy Eating Everyone!

    Beef fajita chimi.  Good!
    Mike S.

    Very good Mexican food in a nice quiet atmosphere with very friendly service. We started with beef and cheese nachos which were a 10 out of 10. In fact my wife said she will get a full order for dinner next time. She got the beef enchiladas and I got the beef fajita Chimi. Both were good, but lacked a little bit of flavor. The salsa is quite good and that helped. They have a full bar and great margaritas.

    Quesadilla
    Debra M.

    Woof, I am zero for four in getting good Mexican food in Texas. Seriously, what the heck? MB and I went to this restaurant hoping for their famous margaritas and good Tex-Mex. She liked her quesadilla, but I liked none of my food, nor the margaritas. MB ordered spicy marg but it was not and I found them to be weak and sour. The guacamole "prepared table side" was not, it just arrived from the kitchen and was just okay. The chips were unsalted and too thick. The salsa and beans were also just okay. The tortilla soup and the bean soup both had a watery broth MB likened to dishwater. No me gusta. I think I'll quit seeking authentic Mexican food in Texas and just keep getting the good stuff here in Minnesota.

    This place is a hidden gem. I was highly impressed with the food and ambiance. I'm looking forward to going back and letting all of my friends who are looking for authentic and homemade excellence to go here. Phenomenal food. Tastes like it was made with love and clean

    Margarita
    John C.

    ....... READ THIS REVIEW ...... Very reasonable prices!!! That makes up for a few shortcomings - and the staff is awesome... even by my standards. While my review is always direct, I like this place. Great energy. But undecided as to coming back. Hummm. Chips = 6/10 On the thicker side as restaurant chips go, but I did ok with them. (I would not buy them in a store.) Salsa = 8/10 Well made, tasty and a gentle warming on the back end. Nice flavor but did not "wow me". Black Bean Dip = 3/10 Shocker... it's puréed as expected but was cold?!? I asked if was supposed to be cold. Evidently it was an error - and they immediately brought me a hot replacement - double portion!! AWESOME! That's the absolutely perfect way to fix a mistake - and a new 1st for me. (They earned many respect points from me on that move!) Well hummm, it's extremely bland. Nothing but bean flavor. Needs salt and some seasoning to make it wake up. But it's free so I can't complain... just sad. I had higher hopes when I saw it... and I've had much better. Frozen Strawberry Margarita = 6/10 - First impressions.. a bit on the small side. The flavor is enjoyable, but it's not handmade syrup. Very silky, creamy and light texture. I prefer a more dense texture (more icy). It's fresh and not melted... but the texture is as if you were drinking the last 1/4 of your margarita. Undecided on this point. Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada = - Moist chicken which is the #1 thing I grade on. Yes, it's moist! However, not a strong seasoning profile, more in the hard to find flavors side. I like the sour cream sauce. Not over powering and has the correct texture. 7/10 Beef Enchilada with Chili Con Carne Sauce = 3/10 - Ok, but a again definitely on the bland side. The sauce is just that - only a sauce... no meat included. Not all memorable. Table Side Handmade Guacamole 8.5/10 - Be sure to tell them you want it made "at the table", otherwise they make it in back. Very good. Extremely creamy with small chunks of avocado (I don't like big chunks - too much). I skipped the jalapeños, and it's definitely a repeat item for me. Beautiful flavor and enjoyable. Service = 10/10 Excellent in every way. 2-3 other waiters always check on me as they pass by. Obviously, the customer comes first here!!! Very attentive and fast service at 7:30pm. Environment = 7/10 Welcoming as you enter and hosted is quick to acknowledge you. Very nice original art on the wall - not stereotypical, enjoyable to look at. (Good move!) Lots of open space allowing you to have privacy but it's still has good energy with all the customer buzz. Over All: 3/5 Although this review is a bit direct (that's my style) I was happy I came by. The people here are so good hearted and you can tell they will move mountains to ensure you are happy!! That was a highlight for me. As for the food, maybe I ordered the wrong stuff... but everything was about 30% seasoned to what I expect Tex-Mex to be. Unfortunately, bland in general. Hard to get much flavor, too gentle and mild. But please note - I do not like "heat or overpowering seasoning to the point you can't identify what you are eating!" I do require more than a minimal seasoning approach. That's because I'm an old and native Texan from Big D.

    Chimichanga with Brisket
    Russell W.

    The food was very delicious! Very fresh ingredients, generous portions and amazing brisket. The chimichanga and quesadilla were both awesome. Really liked the beans and salsa served with chips before the meal. The ambiance was nice, the service was very fast and friendly.

    Table side guac
    Andrea R.

    When in Dallas you have to go for tex-mex. My husband's go to is Mi Cocina, which is a solid option, but I suggested we try something new this trip. And thanks to Yelp we found ourselves at Gabriela & Sofia's Tex-Mex. We ordered some guacamole, which they make tableside and it was sooo good. And then we ate our weight in chips and guac. I could have been done eating for the night after that, but my husband and I split some fajitas. They were nice enough to do half shrimp (for me) and half chicken (for my husband). I also ordered a skinny margaritas, which I should have ordered sans salt because it was way too salty for my liking and I couldn't have more than a few sips. Overall, some great tex-mex. I know there's so many good options in the area, but this is one worth trying!

    Cheese Enchiladas
    Victoria E.

    Enjoyed the cheese enchiladas and ice tea. Nice chili sauce and crispy chips. Service was good, booths are small and not comfy for a party of 4.

    Enchilada Dinner
    Drew M.

    A great small Tex Mex spot that perfectly hit the spot. Management and servers were terrific. They have a nice little bar in the back with 3 televisions. Very comfortable and homey feel to the place. Big menu with a lot of options. The recommended the fajitas as that was their popular item, but I went the enchilada option as it was a bit lighter. You get to mix and match the meats and sauces that you want for your enchiladas. Both the ranchero sauce and chile con queso sauce were a solid choice- so go with whatever you are in the mood for.

    2 orders of the Mixed Grill for Two (Beef, chicken, and shrimp. Served with mix vegetables, rice, beans, guacamole, and pico de gallo).

    Had such a nice lunch with my family at Las Palmas! This was our second time visiting this location…read moreand it definitely lived up to the hype again. Since the weather has been so nice lately, outdoor seating is super popular, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you can. Even though we didn't have one, they were still able to accommodate our group which we really appreciated. The service was amazing...everyone was so polite, attentive, and fast. The drinks were delicious and the food came out surprisingly quickly as well. They also offer valet, but if it's packed, there's parking across the street too which was convenient. Highly recommend for a nice lunch or dinner during the weekend. We'll definitely be coming back again!

    A staple of Uptown, Las Palmas is often referred to as the best Tex-Mex in Dallas. While I may be…read morebiased as it's my local spot, I do think Las Palmas is excellent. The location is super cute and always packed. You definitely need a reservation or have to go super early to get a spot. There is valet parking as well as street parking, which can get a bit crowded. I've had a ton of different food items the years, but their fajitas are their signature dish for a reason! It comes out sizzling, fresh, and delicious. Do not pass up on the bone marrow sauce, it transforms the dish to beyond a 10/10! The salsas are always good and then tortilla chips salty and fresh. I start with a skinny margarita w a salt rim, which was good. Our waiter, Abraham, was great! He was very attentive and was very knowledgeable about the menu. We also order the ceviche to start, which was yummy! The crackers were a bit of an odd pairing for me and I stuck with tortilla chips, but overall delicious!! My friend ordered the steak quesadilla and thought it was tasty too.

    This joint is quintessential Tex-Mex. Kitsch on the walls and a menu full of stuff that includes…read morethe same 3-4 ingredients. Cold, spicy salsa. Even colder bottled beer. The service here was great on my visit. The atmosphere, albeit a little crowded, was comfy. As I do with my first visit at any Tex-Mex joint, I order the combo plate. I was very pleased with it here. The taco was crunchy with nicely seasoned (non-greasy) ground beef and lettuce and cheese served on the side (I told them no tomatoes). The tamale had a wonderful brisket-like filling, although there was a little too much masa for me. The cheese enchilada was filled with actual cheese, which is a good (if not rare) thing these days. The chili con carne topping was wonderful, as was the rice -- which is among the most perfectly cooked that I have ever experienced in a Tex-Mex joint. The refried beans were run-of-the mill. I must say that the enchilada tortillas are firmer than most. Not necessarily bad, but they definitely don't par-fry these things before rolling. I tend to judge Tex-Mex joints by their salsa. If it's served warm, I take points off the board. This stuff is served ice-cold and has a wonderful bite. Bottom line: If I lived here, I'd be a regular. Excellent Tex-Mex.
