Surprised! Came through on a Sunday around 6pm and atmosphere was great. Location is near the AAC and the restaurant compliment with free valet (I recommend you to tip though). This place is very clean and not uptight at all. Reservations are welcome, so I do advise you to do so. I did not know what to expect about this location cause I am picky and real uptight when I see dishes dress all pretty, typically the food is bland. But the food had flavor, presentation was great and portion was right for the price. Staff was on par making sure your drink was full. I give it TWO thumbs ups! read more

Meso Maya Comida y Copas - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

In Dallas for a few nights. Yelp'd for a place and this came up. It was about 4 miles from my hotel. Got there, parked in the lot, and proceeded to the front door. The place was packed! I snagged a seat at the bar and ordered a simple house margarita with some jalapeno, and for food, I started with their ceviche, which was excellent! The place was rocking with a good looking crowd. Lots of tequilas and mezcals! The bartenders were all excellent. After the ceviche, I ordered the brisket enchiladas and when they didn't show after a bit, my bartender checked on them, and then brought me another margarita for waiting. Very nice touch! This place is happening! GO! read more

The food was pretty amazing, but not worth how we were treated by the staff. We had made a reservation though opentable and they continued to refuse us and told us the system was messed up, which was their fault in the first place, so my dad had to convince the manager multiple times for us to get one table. It was a mess and overall not a good experience read more

Great service, GREAT Service, GREAT SERVICE! As a coworker suggestion, I tried it and the drinks were strong and the food reminded my of a place back home and it smells of an abuela's kitchen. Must try; Ceviche - ummmm I don't know how to explain how great it is! Queso Fundido - trust me it's heaven! Pollo Con Mole - Camarones a La Diablo - Avocado margarita La Flaca Margarita Stay away; Serrano enchiladas - ‍‍ I'm just not a fan of chihuahua cheese. I'm sure they taste great to others but I personally can't do it.... again. read more

This place is awesome I am in Texas for the weekend and just left the CDM. This place was an 8 min walk and I was SOooooo pleasantly surprised. It is an intimate little atmosphere with a healthy southWest vibe on cuisine. I had a great margarita and there salsa is great read more

We ordered the mole and salmon entree. Soooo good. Never had a mole like that. Drinks were b0mb. Good job guys. Muchas gracias. Areba

I hate to have to write this review. I've written over 120 reviews on Yelp, and never have I granted a business a one star. To me, something TRULY has to go very wrong to earn that rating, and unfortunately, that is what happened at my visit. I went to this restaurant with one of my friends a week and a half ago. Everything was fine - we were seated quickly, we ordered appetizers and drinks which were both delicious, and our waiter was attentive and helpful. The delivery of the main course is where things went downhill, very quickly. The server delivering our food hit my friend's margarita glass with the plate he was carrying, spilling it all over her and completely soaking her clothes. Now, this in itself is an accident. It's a horrible inconvenience, but look - stuff happens. This is where good service comes into play. After this happened, the staff kind of just looked around and said, "oh, we'll clean that up." There was no apology from any of the parties involved. Nobody seemed to care. My friend's dress was ruined, and we couldn't go out anywhere else; this was a completely full drink that was spilled on her. The least this restaurant could do is show some sort of apology for this. To add insult to injury, they offered her a new drink, but they didn't comp the original. Look, let me make something clear. I am not the type of individual to go begging for special treatment or expect free things from businesses. I have never once asked for something to be comped, ever. However, in this situation, if you spill a drink on somebody and completely ruin their ability to enjoy the evening, surely this would be something you don't charge them for, correct? I couldn't believe it. On our way out, we asked the hostess (who was very kind and understanding) about seeing a manager. She took down our name and number, but we never received any sort of follow up. And I'll be fair here - the food is fantastic. Every bite of everything we ate was great. But I cannot bring myself to award any stars to a place that shows no care when they ruin a customer's night. I will give this place a second chance eventually, but for now, it's a no go. read more

Meso Maya has the BEST carne asada I've ever had and I've had a lot!! They offer both red and green pozole. I tried the green pozole and it was delicious. Perfect for a cold day. Very yummy mojitos as well. It's a cozy atmosphere. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend the carne tacos and the carne asada. The pork chop is delicious as well. I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu if I can get past the carne asada!! read more

Margs. Enough said. But really, the service and food couldn't be better. Excellent tequila menu, and I especially love sitting in their outdoor seating/courtyard for a nice shady dinner. Definitely a great relaxing date spot after a long week to unwind Friday night, or for a bigger group of friends to start the night off. read more

I love this place!!! First time here, the place is packed and the still found a seat! The server Gabby is my favorite person in the city right now. Because it's my first time here a manager introduced himself and brought some super fresh guacamole. I'm on cloud nine! The patio has heated seating, the bar has a basketball game playing and tons of alcohol. The place is beautiful, the chips and salsa are perfectly salted and so tasty. I haven't even got my food yet and I'm so hooked. I will come again and again here. read more

Came to eat here after my family and I left the Perot Museum. Great salsa - brown and smokey (not spicy, so kid-friendly). Spacious seating to have my 10 month old (in her stroller while sleeping) next to our table along with my 3 kids and husband. Great happy hour house margarita $5 (mon-fri 4-6pm) I had the chicken mole enchilada - so good! Husband had the ceviche & elote corn - both great! Kids had chicken & cheese quesadillas w/white rice $5 each and both had plenty to pack home. Service was great! Only complaint is a bit pricey for 2 tacos (accompanied w/rice and beans)- $13 & up read more

Came here after church on Sunday. We ordered the guacamole and queso. It was my first time trying the queso and I loved the flavor. It was well seasoned with some onion and cilantro. My friend had the enchilada Del Mar and I had the Azteca with shrimp. The food was sublime and the service was efficient but the margaritas were just ok. read more

This is an awesome Restaurant. We brought a group of 8 people and the wait was well worth the wait. The food was delicious & spicy hot. The staff was fast and always checking on us filling our drinks. Good place to take customers. Totally recommend this place! read more

Used Uber Eats to have this delivered and it didn't disappoint. Ordered the brisket enchiladas and the elotes. They also provide you with chips and salsa. They brisket enchiladas were amazing as were the beans and rice. The elotes was good but not incredible, they didn't add any hot sauce. This is a place is definitely return to and try some additional items. read more

Great atmosphere, yummy food and margaritas, and friendly staff...what more can you ask for?! I will definitely be back to this little gem! read more

One of my favorites. Love the avocado margarita! It's fabulous. Very refreshing. Highly recommend!

I have to say we love the food here BUT this location in dallas across from klyde warren has done the same thing to us three times so unfortunately this is our last time visiting. We walked in just now and there was at least 10 empty tables and they told us it would be 20 minutes because they had no servers as we literally count 6 of them hanging out by the back room computer. Another party of two walked in after us and the hostess quoted her 40 minutes when there's literally so many tables open. We left because this just didn't make sense to us and headed to the Greenville location where we've always had a pleasant experience. read more

This spot is one of my favorite in Dallas to get a good cocktail. I love their outdoor patio seating and food does not disappoint either. Prior to covid, this place gets really busy so a reservation was almost always needed but I visited early November and there wasn't a wait for us to be seated. read more

Absolutely speechless. I try my best to avoid driving in Dallas but I was so happy I drove down here and tried this place out! We sat inside, no wait on a SATURDAY and the place was busy. Of course we didn't see how beautiful outside was, so we asked to be moved. They moved us with no hesitation. Literally felt like we were in Mexico outside. The food was bomb, my boyfriend (who doesn't like chocolate, super weird I know) loved the Pastel de Chocolate. Amazing service, great food and beautiful scenery! read more

Got the wrong order for my food & our drinks -the waiter never came back!! Like he just forgot about us to check on our table?! Had to flag down other waiters to get anything and everything fixed. Waited 15+ mins for the check & the manager happened to pass and notices we were done with our meal & looking around - and he brought us our check! Terrible service, and horrible experience made the food mediocre / not enjoyable! read more

Food was very good and creatively plated! Server was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Atmosphere was warm and inviting. The Chilli Relleno reminded me of my favorite from Mexico City. Color me impressed :) One more visit like that and I'm bumping them to 5 Stars!!! Well done, Hopkins read more

I have been going to meso maya for Many years and my husband and I always order the same menu item. This last visit we were very disappointed to see the Pollo con mole as a chicken breast instead of the bone in ?? I got the pollo con papas Wich was recently added to the menu and it was changed to a chicken breast also. Menu said it came with queso fresco and I asked for extra and arugula but there's was none to be found. I asked our server Patricio to get it for me and he kindly did. I loved meso maya in the past but for me I'm not sure if I'm going to be back soon. I might give them another try later . read more

The food was mediocre the service was worst I have experienced the server came once to take the order .. 2nd time to get his 20% tip .. they got us the wrong order and we had to hunt down and find someone to let them know after waiting that this was not right food. Also took super long to get the food. The drinks were watery .. never ever going back read more

Honestly THE BEST Mexican food I ever ate, and I'm half Mexican. Everything was authentic and the staff was kind and welcoming. Drinks were fire, literally, try the habanero marg. The food was delicious in every bite. The Mexican vanilla ice cream was also a great ending to our experience here. Would eat here every day if I could. Our waitress Karen was awesome. read more

My son gave this "twelve out of five!" stars. The staff was fantastic and the manager, Alberto, made sure we were well taken care of. This was a special night in Dallas for us, thanks for making it memorable! read more

So I am going to rant about their Asada steak dish. Often I get these dishes and they are fine, or tasteless and require a food salsa. This was neither. The steak was cooked to my request and it had a deep flavor and char that really made it stand on its own. The black beans and corn tamal was solid but nothing excessive or especially delicious. The balanced the plate but only served as a filler next to the steak. Their hand made corn tortillas were a perfect vehicle for steak tacos with a small amount of their salsa. Emmy wife ordered shrimp tacos and were fine, according to her, but the little ramekin of salsa was the highlight. I used it lightly to make my little tacos especially good. My margarita was delicious and the quest was a solid pre meal dip to get you started. read more

Eric, the manager, was wonderful! We came in without reservations so we were seated outside in the heat. The servers and Eric were extremely flexible and gratefully moved us indoors. The food was fantastic! I really enjoyed the carne asada and salmon de coco! Most were moist and tasty. read more

Love this place! Definitely recommend trying this place. Dinner was over the top. Love it.

This was a phenomenal dining experience! We made reservations because the place seemed so popular on Yelp. We were greeted by an employee who opened the door for us, always nice. We checked in and we're immediately seated. Our waiter quickly popped over to introduce himself, explain the menu, and take our drink order. It was 100 degrees out, so prompt beverages was a huge bonus. For those of you who appreciate a properly made Michelada this is the place to go. A perk is that you can choose your beer to mix in so it's a little personalized. After we ordered the manager came by to qelco.e us since we said we were first timers at Meso Maya. He even brought us a free tree from the kitchen!! I went for the tacos de carne. Just wow! The meat was cooked, and seasoned, to perfection. The toppings were fresh and the tortillas are made in house. Even the rice and beans that accompanied meal were amazing. I got full and it was honestly a struggle to decide if I wanted to finish my second taco or eat more rice and beans. I'm so sad there wasn't a refrigerator in my hotel room. *sad face* I cannot compliment the service or the food at Meso Maya enough. This is a MUST VISIT!! read more

It's too bad that Meso Maya is still trending so well with the Dallas self-absorbed and chattering set. I suspect that somewhere beneath the "Oh my Gawds!" and pretty people is actually a pretty good restaurant. All four of our menu choices were very well received, though my chicken Budin Azteca dish would have been tastier if it had arrived from the kitchen as hot as the servers pretended when they sat it on the table. I might also add that, though the smoky salsa does seem to bear an occasional mouth-flaming kick of jalapeno or habanero seeds, the tortilla chips were heavy, almost stale tasting. I wonder why a more upscale Mexican restaurant like this doesn't try to evolve the chips to match the more sophisticated menu? It would have been tastier walking in with my own bag of Xochitl chips. [http://www.salsaxochitl.com/] Just sayin'... And, speaking of table, what is it about our luck in getting the worst table in the joint? Servers who do not recognize us a regulars love to seat us by (in this instance) the back door which opened constantly so waitstaff could make a shortcut to the kitchen across the patio. Each time, the furnace blast of summer night air reminded me that SOMEthing was warmer than my entree. I do suspect that what is behind this and other bad-draw seatings in fad restaurants is ageism. "Put the over-50 folks out of sight." Tepid customer appreciation. Tepid entree. Tepid review. read more

The customer service horrible, the wait was too long, the noise was too loud, the waiting for the food was also too long. The server was taking care of so many tables and we were always waiting on her. Not good experience. read more

I came on a Friday night before the dinner rush. My waiter was nice, helped answer my questions and patient. I order the salmon dish. The rice was very tasty - similar in sweetness to Thai dessert sticky rice (typically severed with mango). The salmon was cooked well, the the sauce accompaniment was delicious. read more
