Mena's never fails us, which is why this is our go-to spot for Mexican food. To start, the place is nice and the bar stools are so comfortable. We enjoy the summer queso and the chorizo queso (def add mushrooms) to start. And we love the Pepe's tacos, carne asada and the seafood relleno. Leo is also the absolute best, and always makes the experience better with his friendliness and promptness. He is also why we go back. Overall great experience every time. read more

Food is good, service is good. No complaints. Best cheese enchiladas & chips & salsa you'll ever have in your life.

Great ambience with fantastic service. Love the outdoor seating area for date nights. Would highly recommend the summer fajitas. Their tableside guacamole and house margaritas are great as well. Definitely one of the best Mexican spots in the area read more

I went for happy hour on the patio and enjoyed the combo fajita nachos and queso dip. Their marg flight was excellent too--4 choices per flight. One flight is plenty too. The tamarind flavor was surprisingly tasty and sweet. read more

I went to dinner here with some friends one Saturday night. The place was super busy and is quite small so we waited like 15 minutes before being sat. This place is located on the corner of one of the shopping strips inside the area. I had to park over by the movie theater and walk over as parking is limited in front of it and nearby. I use to frequent the Richardson location and loved their food. I ordered a Queso Bowl with Chorizo. This came out without chorizo but I was not charged for the chorizo so it was fine, $8.95. The queso was meh, lacking flavor, consistency was nice though. It really needed the chorizo that was missing for flavor. I got the Beef Fajita Quesadilla $16.50 with Pico in it for my meal. Their beef is always so good, tender and juicy. The portion is pretty large as well, you get 8 pieces in the order. They had a live musician which is a real nice touch ambiance wise. I never got our server's name but on my receipt it says Gerardo N. He needs to work on attentiveness to refills, there were multiple times that I would be completely empty on water and same for others at my table. This chain is always great for its beef products and if I was reviewing jsut the food I would do 4 minus the queso. This location though, the semi lackluster service and parking make me lower the stars to 3. I would not go out of my way to go back since it is not close to me. read more

This is our second time here and the good quality of food has not changed. They served chips and salsa and we also ordered the guacamole. The guacamole was made fresh in front of us. I ordered the Carne Asada and the steak skirt was cooked to perfection. I ordered it medium rare and it was seasoned well. My husband ordered the chicken and beef fajitas and he loved it as well. Fernando was our server and his service was great--very attentive and responsive. We loved the ambience, quiet and cozy. We'll definitely come back here. read more

My wife and I went on a Tuesday night, and it wasn't busy. We were seated immediately, and our waiter was attentive throughout. The chips and salsa were okay, though the hotter salsa was just spicy without much flavor. The regular margarita on the rocks was strong and enjoyable. We also had the frozen margarita flight (sangria swirl, passion fruit, pineapple, and strawberry), which was fun and refreshing. For dinner, I had the Peppe street tacos with bean soup and rice both were flavorful. Overall, a solid spot. read more

Stopped by at this scenic location for dinner on a Friday everning, a few weeks ago. I must say that the location is very central and easily accessible. The ambience was also great with live music and service was great! We ordered some brisket quesedillas, chicken enchilladas and a shrimp platter. The food was average and very uninspiring, taste wise. Would I go there again.....probably not as there are better Tex Mex joints around the corner that serve better fare. read more

Great restaurant in Flower Mound. The restaurant was nicely decorated and we had excellent service. My Spinach Enchiladas were nicely seasoned and the portion was generous. The only improvement would be to place two bowls of chips on the table for a larger party. It was awkward to have to reach across to get chips. read more

Been going to Mena's in Carrollton for over 20 years, even know the owners. Recently moved to Flower Mound and now go to the Lakeside location. Food is always fresh, good and hot. I have never had a bad meal. Service is top notch, atmosphere extremely nice. Highly recommend! read more

I don't typically leave reviews but the hostess here was extremely rude to our family. After we waited 45 minutes (she stated a 30 minute wait when we arrived) she had no problem telling us it would be another 45 minutes. Meanwhile she seated multiple tables that arrived well after us. When questioned she could offer no explanation nor showed any concern for our situation. In fact she was outright rude. When you start to take customers for granted, you have a problem. Won't be coming back. read more

We always enjoy Mena's - fresh food, good service, lovely beverages, good family atmosphere. Beware -- not a lot of options for parties larger than six and the table near the front door gets a brutal breeze if it is cool outside! read more

Ambiance and service is still good! Food was quite disappointing. The chicken enchilada stuffing had no taste. The cheese taco is just a chunk of cheese in a folded tortilla with enchilada sauce! They replaced it with a real crispy taco after I complained. Also, their combo meals don't come with rice or beans like most other restaurants. Also not sure why they don't list the prices on their drinks menu. read more

Mena's Tex-Mex Grill - Cheese taco??? - Tex-Mex Near Me - Flower Mound, Texas

This place is consistently good, both with the quality of the service and the food they put out. We have been here several times and are never disappointed. The restaurant is located in the fairly new Lakeside neighborhood of Flower Mound. As it is located close to apartments, condos, and family homes, it is usually filled up with locals and large groups of regulars. The employees here work hard but have had to cope with reduced staffing as in many places nowadays. This hasn't taken away from their energy or friendliness. They do the Latino community proud with their work ethic and undiminished resolve. For food - our go-to are the Al Pastor nachos. If you wonder how they look, please refer to the pics. Wipe the drool away and make it over here as quick as you can, if you can. You will come away a much happier person for it. read more

Had lunch at Mena's in Flower Mound on 03/11/25. My check, including a 20% tip was $38.50. However, when the debit was processed through my bank, it was for $42.48. Bottom line: Mena's added an additional $3.98 to my bill without authorization. I called the restaurant and asked to speak with the manager, and was told that he was in a meeting. I left a message, but have not heard back. $3.98 may seem insignificant and most people may not even have noticed the discrepancy, but this is not right. read more

It's really hard to say anything bad about this place. The service is always consistent, and the food is great. At least for me, there's constant touch points to make sure you have everything you need. The pricing is really pretty good. Everything seems to be fairly freshly made in the establishment. read more

Got here late on a Sunday. It must have been 9:30 and the bar men gave me a nod saying yes come on in. We were seated at a booth and no one rushed us. They had several groups of people finishing their meal and a few people having drinks at the bar. They gave us a lot of chips and salsa to start. Food seemed fresh and the drinks were good. Coming back again and just noticed they serve brunch so we'll be back to try that. read more

Came here on a Saturday night- get here early or it will be crowded!! Started with free chips and salsa - the chips were so light and fresh!! We all got different entrees and everyone loved their order! I got the Tacos al Carbon- they look small at first, but when you put all the fillings in they were very filling! I also tried a chicken quesadilla slice which was amazing. Love the ambiance and neighborhood- definitely recommend! read more

Alex and Orlando were fantastic servers! I rarely start a review about the servers, but Alex was so friendly, and Orlando, who was in training, was also pretty great. We ordered tableside guacamole, and it was probably the best restaurant guacamole I've ever had. The margarita was pretty tasty too. The chicken flautas, at $10(not bad at all) were very crunchy and super yum! Served with rice, beans, guacamole , and sour cream! I love that! I don't want to have to ask for sour cream or guacamole. Why doesn't everyone do this? Come on! My husband ordered the beef fajita chimichanga covered in spicy queso. He was satisfied, which meant it was a good size portion and tasty. We will be back. $50 for two with an appetizer and one adult beverage. Not bad for a date night in FloMo. read more

We tried Mena's Tex-Mex grill after seeing a recommendation on an eater dallas article. The salsa and chips were fantastic. Additionally, the drinks (sangria & guava margarita) were excellent. If this rating was solely based off the drinks and chips and salsa, I would have given this restaurant a "4 star rating". Unfortunately, the chef's chicken tacos and the enchilada dinner fell short. The chef's tacos strictly had just meat in them and were a bit bland. The enchilada dinner was also okay, the queso was great but the chili con carne tasted a bit processed (tasted similar to hormel chili from the can). I will likely try this place again but will have to try different food items. read more

Yesterday afternoon at Mena's was FANTÁSTICO! The atmosphere is dynamic and happy, the food is delicious. We order the Mena's plate and it was just perfect... the two beef tostadas with beef and the other 2 with beans were YUMMER's, the flauta's with cream & Guacamole were crunchy delicious, and the quesadillas were cheesee, and the Margaritas hit the spot! Our amazing waiter Jose Rdz., took care of us with & make sure we had our drinks & food, and his attitude was friendly and hospitable! Great atmosphere! I will go back for the same delicious plate attached! Salud read more

Food was average, service was terrible. The waiter was not interested in waiting on us at all. Never got drinks filled, took our appetizer order, had to flag him down when we finished our appetizer to our order or entrees. Long periods of time where we never saw our waiter, lots of other waiters. Managers and bartenders but no one checked on us. . There are way too many Mexican restaurants around for this bad of service and food, we will go elsewhere next time. read more

First off, every other restaurant could learn how to make chips from them. Every time I've been here, this chips are thin, crispy, and NOT OILY! The corn flavor is actually what you taste, not oil. Some people may not care about that, but it can make or break a restaurant for me because whether I'm there for brunch, lunch, happy hour, dinner, or aperitifs, I'm gonna eat some of those hot chips they put in front of me. And don't even get me started on the salsa, it is fresh, flavorful and on point every time. If you can handle the heat, order some of the salsa verde, you won't be disappointed. The food is always good. Whether we order enchiladas, tacos, salads, or just apps and desserts, never been unhappy. The drinks are great also, but tequila at a work lunch doesn't always go over well. The staff is great and I can only remember one time of dozens that I haven't been pleased with the staff. The ambiance is good, and awesome they allow dogs on the patio. You're allowed to come here, just don't make it so busy I have to wait a long time when I come ;) read more

If you like bland Tex-mex , then this is where you need to come. For my first visit to this restaurant I was not real impressed. The restaurant itself was very nice. The waiter was awesome. He was very attentive. I got the chicken flautas with rice and beans. The chicken inside the flautas were very bland and dry. They had no seasoning whatsoever. I may come back and try a different dish, but don't get the flautas. They have no flavor. read more

Tried Mena's and was very disappointed. The taco dish that had a star next to it was very below average... The chicken seasoning and salad dressing was just gross. The tacos literally had nothing but chicken in them... If the chicken was good it may not have mattered. The tortilla soup was the only decent thing... Being honest, I would drive a little further for any other Mexican option. It was also DEAD at dinner time. read more

Prerequisite: None, it's pretty standard Tex-mex fare (but slightly more refined). FOOD: The brisket tacos are good! The tortilla soup is the brothy kind, decent. The guacamole appetizers: the only one that is truly worth it is the "large" table side guacamole, the others are premade, brought out in scoops, very bright in flavor because of the amount of lime juice they need to preserve the color. The summer fajitas are strange. I ordered them (steak version) thinking it would be light and "summery" with a few lightly breaded onion strings, but what was delivered was a mound of fried onions (tasty, but a LOT of them), about 4-6 small bits of steak around a smaller mound of Spanish rice all on a bed of queso? Not at all what I had in mind for Summer fajitas, and not much food (meat) for two people for 15.99, so if you order it, be prepared to make fajitas with onions and cheese! DRINKS (alcoholic): Flavored Margaritas: Tamarind frozen margarita: the best there is. This is the place for margaritas on a patio. The glass is lined with chili salt, it's reminiscent of being on the beaches in Mexico! Up next is the Guava. Then Peach. The strawberry is good and he standard "strawberry" margarita flavor. You CAN get their Sangria swirled into the margarita, that's good, but not as good as Anamia's version of the same thing (which means I'm sure they could improve the Sangria recipe!). I haven't had it, but sitting at the bar, I watched more than a dozen piña coladas go out! They use coconut creme (obviously in FloMo it's canned, but good quality), and pineapple juice - no bottled mixes - and they blend it fresh, so I imagine it's great! Decent selection of beers, but for beer drinkers, I imagine taking a walk down to The Tavern would prove a better drink experience. All in all, the food is quality, the drinks are top notch, and the service is typically excellent. So, a great find in Lakeside of Flower Mound! Great for date night or lunch! read more
