December, 29, 2024 This was our first visit to Jhonny's Mexican Restaurant. We chose it based on reviews. The outside looks old and rundown. The inside could use an update as well. Don't be fooled by appearances. The service was great! The food was served hot and was very flavorful and reminiscent of our travels to Mexico. This isn't your typical Tex-mex. It's definitely more authentic Mexican cuisine. I ordered the chicken green tomatillo enchiladas. The tomatillo sauce was the best I've ever had in my 61 years. It's a 5 star in my book and definitely worth putting this on our regular rotation of restaurants. read more

Curb appeal? Not really. Friendly service? Absolutely. Good fajitas, quesadillas and margaritas? Yes. They have kids meal options that our toddler devoured. The refried beans are delicious and the queso blanco is so rich and creamy. Would definitely visit again! read more

I'm excited I found this place! Great food and good service. They do their own margarita mix and it's good and natural tasting and strong enough! The avocado chicken enchiladas were a bit salty but still really good. The fajitas were great and a great value compared to other larger places. We found our favorite TexMex that won't break the bank and it's just around the corner! Too many margaritas? We can just walk home! read more

The food is Yummy! Liked it so much I came back the next day and brought friends. Everyone raved about the food. The interior Is meh but service and food great! read more

The restaurant is not very clean. That was already a red flag. There were paint cans, wood pallets, and other stuff by the side entry inside. Talk about a hazard. I don't like that they only have black beans. The queso blanco was good, but finding a beetle in the refried beans was not!! Will not be back to this place. read more

Not many people there when we came in, took a very long time to have someone take our order and the food wasn't very good. Too bad as they are close but too many better places nearby. read more

Amazing! Delicious! Wonderful! From the second you come in, to the second you leave. Food and customer service is impeccable. Their beverages are so fresh and their alcoholic drinks are mouth watering! Special shout-out to our friend (we forgot his name but we call him "primo") lol and to Ruby for always being so attentive. read more

Jhonny's Mexican Restaurant - Us on our way! I always forget to take a picture of the food. - Mexican Near Me - Garland, Texas

Surprisingly a delicious find in Garland! I used yelp (of course) when I was visiting my sister in Dallas. This popped up with some decent reviews, so we gave it a shot. And to my surprise it was a hit! The margaritas were delicious with various flavors. Chips were homemade, and crispy hot and fresh. Hot sauce was incredible. Our server was very attentive, and we ate every bite. I was so happy to find a place that had a humble home-style feel. If that is what you are looking for - go here. read more

Oh Jhonnys.... How I love you. The fajitas are awesome... The chicken is nice, but the steak here is as good as anywhere. The crispy tacos are a can't miss. Chimichangas, burritos, rice and beans are all so so so good. The salsa! The creamy green one is one of my favorite restaurant salsas. It. Is. Hot. The red salsa is a bit more traditional and also very tasty. The queso.... I challenge you to find a better tasting queso than Jhonnys. It's like a queso blanco, with bright green peppers in it, and if I'm not mistaken, you can order it full of Jhonnys flavorful ground beef. So good! My wife's favorite. 4/5 because I just don't love their chips. I know, i know... The salsa and queso fan boy doesn't like the chips... I usually order the tortillas lol. I just want to say this... During COVID, this place was a lifesaver. The staff was incredible to us. The food was such a good change from our homemade meals. Always good. Always affordable. They even gave us margaritas to go! I love you Jhonnys read more

This Cozy Tex-Mex restaurant off of Beltline and Garland was just what we needed for a sunday lunch. Food was great! Their rice and beans tasted homemade and fresh. Their Avocado Enchiladas were fantastic. Service was good! I really loved all of the murals inside! Hope to be back! read more

Ouch! If you can't make tasty mexican food??? Well, Johnny's is that place. We ordered fajitas and the were tough and tasteless. Drinks are weak and service very slow!!!! Dirty Too!

Want anything special. Was really looking for a good queso app and I really think I could have made better at home

Holy Frijoles Slap my saddle!!! That was the BEST dang poblano relleno I have ever eaten!!! Geez Louise the corn and mushroom sauce and grilled chicken tasted so fresh. The presentation was beautiful and Maria was a fantastic server. The water was good and tasted fine. Highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to try othe entrees! Yeehaw!!!!!! read more

Always good food and great waitresses. Small family owned business, always great to support. Margaritas are super good and strong! Food is great and is mixed between Tex-Mex and Mexican. All around great place to eat and drink. read more

Wasn't a real Mexican restaurant. Outside appearance and location not the best. Decided to try another restaurant instead.

In this area, Jhonny's is one of my favorite restaurants so far (only lived here less than 4 months). Definitely worth a try and both the seafood tacos (per my wife) chimichangas (me) are very good. That said, part of the high ratings are due to the fact the restaurant is on an island. If you live in and or near Inspiration, rest assured, it's good food. But if you drive from Plano, Sachse, Murphy, Wylie expecting superior food you'll likely be disappointed. I'll definitely be back, but I still GREATLY miss my favorite local Tex-Mex located just west of 75 at Park Ave, read more

After many recommendations to try this place, my wife and I stopped in for dinner last night and it did not disappoint. Maria and the guy that was a manager, my wife called him Jose, but I am not sure that was it, were both amazing. Mango margarita and then a premium one on the rocks were awesome. Had the queso with brisket(yum), steak and shrimp fajitas(steak was the most tender fajita steak I have ever had) and the steak ala Mexicano. The green sauce served with great chips and salsa was unbeatable. They are repainting the inside and they even asked our opinion for the direction of style they should go with. We will return read more

It was about 10 AM on a Saturday and we were looking for somewhere to eat before started our day. We performed a search and found this place was opened so we would check it out. I never knew this business was here but I'm glad we found it. Our waitress was very friendly and hospitable offering us warm chips with a couple of different salads. So delicious! We also order the guacamole which was fresh and delicious as well! Once it came time to order entrees, the waitress recommended the chicken sour cream enchiladas. I obliged and I'm so happy I did. They were delicious as well as the beans and rice that accompanied them. My husband got the brisket quesadilla which I sampled and it was delicious as well. This place has now become a frequent visit and favorite of ours. We also bring our neighbors and other friends here. The food and service is undeniably amazing! Also they have happy hour all the time with margaritas! Delicious also! Rather than supporting a big business with lackluster food, support a small business. You never know what pleasant surprises you may come across! read more

Mexican style dive in restaurant/bar that serves AMAZING food. As a Hispanic, I tend to be very picky when it comes to food from my motherland only because I know how it's suppose to taste Their rice tastes EXACTLY like how my grandmother makes it not like most places where it seems like Ratatouille slipped & dumped a whole bottle of cumin in it. Their tamarindo marg is DELICIOUS!! Does not taste artificial like many other places. The overall atmosphere is very welcoming & friendly. You are immediately greeted as if they know you & are there to give you the ultimate taste bud experience. I made the trip from Oak Cliff, Dallas and I will DEFINITELY won't even hesitate to make the trip again to get my hands on those Flautas Caseras!!! read more

Did somebody say Chimichangas? Oh yeah baby! Don't look any further, you've got to try them here. This place has NAILED-it. When I say "them" I mean the steak and chicken one are both equally delicious! My husband prefers the steak with queso, but I like the chicken one too. I've also tried their sour cream chicken enchiladas, which were yummy as well. They always have their to-go orders ready on time. I actually prefer to just grab my food and eat it at home. They give you a large bag of chips and delicious salsa to go along with it as well. Give Johnny's a try when you've got that Mexican craving, it realllllllly hits the spot. read more

Great tasting food and the Cadillac Margarita was great. Asked the beautiful waitress what her favorite was and went with that, she did not disappoint. (Poblano Relleno). Service was awesome as well with them all working as a team. Here visiting my dad on my way home to California. This place pairs up well with some of my favorite places at home. Great job everyone! read more

Food is good. You get two types of salsa with your chips. Both the red and green were delicious. I ordered beef fajitas which came out tender and with a good amount of beef. Menus are old so prices are not up to date. I think fajitas were listed as $13 but was charged $16.50 which didn't shock me with how things are these days. I was happy with everything except the tortillas. They need to go up The Latin Bakery on Arapaho and Jupiter for their tortillas. read more

I used to LOVE this place but last 4 times it's been a hit or miss, mostly miss. Last night they served sausage gravy and disguised it as queso. The avocado enchiladas were extremely salty. Really disappointing. read more

Went here for a late lunch. Chips were great. I had the veggie enchiladas with rice and beans. My husband had the chicken Mexican burrito. We both very much enjoy our meal. Service was excellent. I was a bit hesitant to try this place bc, I had been to the same location but it was a different restaurant before and was not pleased. Good thing it was totally different inside and the food was better tasting. read more

Came by here after seeing it as a "hot and new" restaurant near the ninja warrior gym we were at today. The food and prices were very good and the service was even better! I can definitely see this being one of those whole in the wall places that people like to frequent multiple times a week. Overall, I am very happy we stopped by! P.S. Got a side of the chipotle sauce as well and it was AWESOME! Poured it over everything I ate! Lol read more

Saw this on hot and new! I tried there beef fajitas comes with rice and beans it was pretty good. Meat was thick and tender, corn tortillas were toasty which was pretty awesome! There chips and salsa to start off with were great as well there green salsa was spicy but not overpowering! Happy hour they pretty much have everyday of the week and all day on Sunday's! Will definitely be back. read more

If you like bland, flavorless mexican food, this is your spot. From the queso blanco without literally any spices to salsa that tastes like canned crushed tomatoes, you're in for disappointment. The chicken that they put in the tacos and tostada had no flavor and tasted like it was pan cooked with vegetable oil and that's it. Beans might've had an entire shaker of salt, yet the chips had absolutely no salt. Mistake, regret, disrespect. read more

UPDATE: My bf and daughter got sick after eating the chimichangas. Well, this was our first time coming here, and once we got here - we had to wait about 10-15 mins for a table of 5. Mind you that we in the doors first with no wait and a few other families came afterwards and got seated before us. Okay. Finally got seated and then they serve us the salsas in these mini to-go cups while I see other tables with actual saucers. Chips were okay. Had to ask for our waters to be refills quite a few times. Not really attentive. Took forever to get our food, and was served without silverware and had to ask the waiter for some. My taco plate came with corn tortillas and I had asked for flour...the chimichangas were okay. Kids taco plates were ok. My beef fajita tacos were a bit chewy. Anyways, not sure if we will come back here. read more
