delicious food and good service our server was fantastic and she was fast all while waiting several different tables

I've been in the restaurant industry since I was 14. From washing pots & pans to busser, to food runner, to server, to bartender, to GM positions & I am now 56 years old. & it is very hard for my wife & I to enjoy dining out because I critique EVERYTHING! & I have noticed the level of service has declined over the past few years. Uniforms not up to spec, lack of menu knowledge, servers auctioning food, pre bussing, server's poor demeanor, management non-involvement(table touching) But last night's dinner went perfectly! Great food Great drinks Great ambiance. & our server, Riley, was magnificent! I was literally blown away by her! (& that takes a lot for me to be impressed) I've experienced awful servers. & they make great servers like Riley look bad. Riley, keep up the great work! & we'll be seeing you soon!!! Go support local businesses like Mexican Inn in Keller. & ask for Riley. read more

Queso was lacking but the beef burrito was awesome - not bad- not good - service was great - HEO

Was anxious to try this for the first time but ended up not being very impressed. Location is ok, building is fine, clean enough, just the food wasn't exactly what I'd hoped. It was a bit bland with little flavor. Even the salsa wasn't very flavorful or spicy. Service was good, I can say that. Based on the food tho, I doubt we will return. read more

We went on a Wednesday about 5 minutes after 6 PM which sucks because their happy hour ends at 6 pm. We still ordered two swirls. We elected to sit st the bar so we could watch the hockey game and motor cross which is really one of the reasons we come here. Chips and hot sauce came quick but when tortilla arrived as come to every table they were cold and butter spread when you tried. We got a full order of beef nachos which were okay. We also ordered queso which was a very dark almost gold color and tasted strange. My husband said it tasted burnt. Here's the other see r thing th as t drives me crazy. The lights outside are always burned out. Can no one in management see this. It just leads me to believe things inside aren't tended to either. When they first came to town the had a simple one page menu and now that its expanded food has declined. read more

Great food, service and affordable. So far I have eaten the burrito and mixed fajitas read more

Not consistent when you ordered the same thing every week, Sometimes flautas are over cooked. They run out of tortillas chips in the late evening and give you the frito chips only. Their corn soft tortillas are thick and usually cold. Service is great! Ambiance is as expected for a Mexican restaurant read more

I'm going to give it 3 stars, as in A-OK. On this night, a Friday, around 7PM the place was pretty busy. There was a 30 minute wait for a 3-top, be we scored 3 seats at the bar. We were a bit bummed to learn our Buy One, Get One dinner coupon was not good on Fridays, but we opted to stay. Looking around, we saw fajita portions were generous, so we went for one beef, one chicken. They started us out with chips and salsa, and the chips were interesting. They were more reminiscent of Fritos, not tortilla. Think and crunchy, and not that bad, just unexpected. Salsa was OK, but I would have liked it spicier. Fajitas were good, with generous portions. We three ate, and took food home. We all liked the beef better. Service at the bar was prompt. Bottom line: Not a bad choice for chain Mexican. read more

Service fair Never brought our appetizer Chile con carne was dry and tasted burnt Rice was dry bland and old Very noisy Never coming adain read more

Our server was jeff excellent service great bartender love him !! He's very nice and always makes sure we're eating good. He's a very hard worker! read more

We ordered through Uber Eats. The food was hot and fresh. I ordered Tampico (cheese and beef enchiladas). They were really good. Not just OK or average, I mean REALLY GOOD!! My husband has the Brisket Burrito and also enjoyed his dinner. We enjoyed the chips and salsa, too. I have no idea why this place doesn't have higher ratings. In addition, the delivery was really prompt! We will order again. Update: we have ordered through Uber Eats several times. Tonight we decided to find the restaurant and dine-in. I had their "Pick 3" and chose one beef enchilada, one cheese enchilada and a crispy beef taco with refried beans and rice. I don't usually eat the beans and rice, but that's my empty place. It was delicious! My husband had their brisket tacos and said they were great. Great food, attentive, but not intrusive service, social distancing and sanitizing between customers. We will be back! I still do not understand their low rating on this app. It's really odd. We've had at least 4 meals and they are consistently great! read more

Really not sure what the low reviews are about and the complaints on the Frito-ish chips... Do folks know what Fritos are? Mexican style corn chips? How dare they not have the same boring flat triangles as everyone else! Anyway, dinner for two. Coupon for 2nd entree free brought us in, used it on both getting chicken fajitas. We sprung for both getting cheese and guacamole. The restaurant was tidy and the service was good and friendly. There was plenty of tasty food, needed a to-go box. Glad they're close to home. See y'all soon. read more

Jeff helped us at the bar off of Denton hwy location. very attentive and professional. highly recommend this store as they exceeded our expectations. great job Jeff!!. read more

We've been going to Mexican Inn since I was a kid, so well on 40 years or so. What's the staple here? What's the difference maker? The chips. Everyone knows this. So imagine our surprise when we visited last night and found that something was afoot. The chip scene had changed. If you look at the picture, you'll see circled in red, the reason we like MI. The other stuff, not circled, is what we can find anywhere else in the Mexican food scene around here. Major fail, in my opinion. The food was average, and certainly not as grand as the days of yore when MI was a smaller, local concern. But the chips always make that tolerable. If this is the direction MI is going, we will sadly be going the other way. read more

Mexican Inn Cafe - WTH?? Chips changed?!? - Mexican Near Me - Keller, Texas

Found this piece of wire cooked into a chip, pics attached. Was a take out order. I called and spoke to manager who said call corporate and they will send you a gift card. NO!!! How about tell me that you will promptly check the chip machine and find out where it came from and fix the issue. I told her just that and she said oh it's probably from where they cleaned the machine this morning. I did reach out to corporate via email. No reply yet. read more

Horrible food. Flour tortillas were hard and cracked like crackers in the steamer holder for fajitas. Queso was so cold the cheese wasn't even melted. Handed us queso without chips. No salsa. 6 employees were sitting and standing around a table chatting. Nobody working. No silverware up front. Entire restaurant smelled like natural gas was leaking. Waiter was angry and not accommodating. Stood around chatting right behind us and restaurant was almost empty Manager never checked on us who obviously had absolutely no care about the managing of this restaurant. This is not acceptable way to treat customers and quality of food was horrible. And that was worth FIFTY BUCKS???????Beef Burrito read more

Mexican Inn Cafe - receipt for balance due - Mexican Near Me - Keller, Texas

Mexican Inn Cafe - How are there 9 of these restaurants in the Fort Worth area as this is the worst Mexican food I have found so far. After El Paseo in Keller closed and Roy's tried to operate in its place but failed, I have been trying to keep it local and find another go to Mexican restaurant - impossible! Mexican inn's chips are like large Fritos style and their salsa taste like hot ketchup. I ordered the tables side Guacamole that was a huge disappointment and was literally Avocado mixed with pico de gallo and no cilantro or lime juice at all. I had to order additional crappy chips (see above) because the guacamole does not come with chips- I guess I was supposed to use my fingers. The beef fajitas meat was the only thing worth mentioning but, the rest of my dinner went in the trash. FROM MANAGEMENT------------------------ Sofia A. Please accept our sincere apologies John, it sounds like we missed the mark during your last visit. We would like the opportunity to win back your loyalty. Please email us your postal mailing information to marketing@mexicaninncafe.com We look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Mexican Inn Cafe 1/25/2021, 2:48 AM My Reply: No thanks- at the increased cost of dinning out and the crappy return of pour service along with the guilting of high tips for no services at all, I will pass on your offer as you had one chance to win over someone that had been at your restaurant when it first open and back then I had said "never again." I have been compelled to try once more and now I know in Keller - there is no Mexican restaurant worth eating at as I have systematically eliminated all considerable candidates. I know that I have to drive to El Paseo on Jacksboro Hwy in Northside Fort Worth to get a decent Mexican dish. read more

I was very yummy and the staff was very attentive. We come here about once a week and we always leave happy

We had the best waiter Andres He was so nice and friendly he always check on us the food was so good we will definitely be back read more

We're new to the area and were looking for a place for lunch a few weeks ago. I noticed the parking lot was always busy so we decided to try it. I'm so glad we did! The chips and salsa are excellent, especially the fritos! Thr food was very good and our waiter Angel was excellent. We've been here several times since for dinner and have had great food every time. read more

We love this place however, the last 3 times we have been there the food isn't hot ! Flavor is good but I no like my enchiladas, beans and rice hot. I asked the waiter if he could take back and stick it in the microwave and he said," we don't have a microwave "! I was shocked ! So anyway...... win some you lose some read more

I ordered fajitas for takeout on 3/18/23 and they didn't include flour tortillas, so I went back and Jennifer told me that they didn't come with flour tortillas. I told her that n the menu it does include them. They gave me the flour and I left to take home my now cold food. I called to inform the manager Victoria that she might need to learn the menu better and Victoria called me a liar and hung up on me. This is completely unacceptable for a supposed manager. This wasn't the first time this happened but, it will definitely be the last. Don't waste your money here! There are more Mexican restaurants even better Mexican inns. read more

Always wonderful service! Jeff is the best! Only thing that could possibly be better would be to please bring back the stuffed jalapeños.

This was my pick and I am very disappointed. I would eat Pancho's over this restaurant. I am not a fan of Mi Cocina either but I would have preferred them over this restaurant. Now I do have to mention their warm fresh made corn tortillas, now THAT I would just order TO GO. The chips looked like big Frito Lays chips and I actually liked it. The Big D swirl was decent but that is about it. I ordered the Sonora and man that plate was JUST NASTY. The beef enchilada tasted like Wolf Brand Chili in corn tortillas. The sauce on top was too blah and gritty. Cheese enchilada tasted like cardboard, the refried beans was watery and the rellano was just.....THE WHOLE PLATE was nasty tasting. The staff here is very pleasant though but would not recommend this restaurant. read more

enjoyed the queso blanco and their nachos. terrific!! today their tortillas were fresh and tender and delicious. read more

Great Mexican food and we always have amazing fast waitresses. The prices are good and you get a ton of food!

Come for the food and you'll be satisfied. Here for the atmosphere? You'll stay a while. Good service seekers will keep coming back. That said.. If you're lucky enough to have Kadega as your bartender you're in the best hands. She's simply amazing. read more

Mexican Inn Cafe - Yummy quesadillas and brisket tacos. - Mexican Near Me - Keller, Texas

Worst Mexican food I've ever had. Went for a second time with my dad this past Sunday. He got beef tacos and I got the San Lupe combo. My dad's tacos were swimming in grease, my chicken taquitos tasted more like bad chicken salad in greasy corn tortillas, and my enchiladas were terrible tasting. Additionally, they give you mostly what appears to be their version of fritos along with a small amount of tortilla chips. I experienced serious GI issues Sunday night through yesterday likely due to that food. Will never go there again. Save your time, money, and avoid disappointment and discomfort, and go elsewhere. read more

I've been living in Keller for almost 2yrs and have yet to find a local authentic Mexican restaurant but this place is actually quite good and gets my Mexican Stamp of Approval. The flour tortillas aren't homemade but I never would have known without asking staff about them. Sure could have fooled me because these tasted, smelled, & felt freshly homemade. A place can have great tasting food but if you serve me store bought flour tortillas and I can tell, I'm never returning. Victoria our server was so awesome and a great multitasker. Not only was she taking orders and serving people seated at the bar but she was also making tortillas in the other room. The rest of the staff seemed friendly and our food was good, no complaints. Definitely will return!!! The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the dinner portion was kinda small for a Mexican Restaurant. I also liked the Chips they served us. They were like Fritos on steroids. We crumbled them & put them in the tortilla soup. read more

Mexican Inn Cafe - Combo Fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Keller, Texas

Management reached out and offered a gift card and an apology. I can honestly say that my second visit was much better. I came in before 5 so it was slower. There were only a few tables in the restaurant. This time I got solid service, chips and tortillas shortly after I sat down. The drinks were better and the fajitas were of a higher quality and cooked correctly. I left feeling satisfied, full and happy. I did notice a wait shortly after I arrived so they may still be understaffed but my experience was night and day from the first visit. read more

Normally we really enjoy coming to eat here, but this last experience was not pleasant! From the time we first walked in to the restaurant it seemed like we were annoying the staff by being there. I had a meal that came with a bean and beef chalupa, my chalupa only came with beans when I asked our waitress about it she said "I don't know did you want beef on it" now she did offer to make me another one but seemed really annoyed with me. Didn't ask if we wanted anything else just handed us our bill and walked away. Our food for the most part did taste good. We normally like to eat here once a month at least but probably won't be back anytime soon after today. I have to say in my past experience the staff has been really nice but today was a different experience. read more

Food is great. Service is attentive and fast. My favorite Mexican food restaurant. Oh yah. read more

Mexican Inn Cafe - I love their home made chips. I almost always order enchiladas, but everything on their menu is great. - Mexican Near Me - Keller, Texas

My wife and I wanted to try this place as we have passed by it many times. The server was very nice and was very attentive. We ordered our food and waited a good 25-30 minutes to get our food. I got the chicken soft taco, pork tamale, and chicken enchilada. The taco was eatable but the other two items were gross. My wife got the 3 taco plate. There was a bone in her very first bite of brisket. She got it out but we come to find it punctured her gum. We get home and she pulls out another small bone from that area. She has a decent sized hole in her gum now from this and what looks to be another bone that could be behind her molar as it is all puffy. This could be a freak incident but this is not somewhere we can come back. read more

Well I have been here several times my mother in law has been a customer of the establishment 70 years. She always orders some pif madden I don't ever see it in the menu but she loves it The sauce is plenty spicy and pretty good. Fresh tortillas and butter top notch. My wife gets the fajita lunch which she loves and it is the correct amount of food for a meal. I had the chicken and rice which was shredded up with cheese sauce a pretty fair amount of food with a chalupa that wasn't impressive. I would give it a 3-4 but our waitress was just a jerk. As joe Biden says Come on man!!!! Bring us plates to eat appetizers off of!!! Don't get gruff when we ask for more tortillas!!! Hell that is a big draw fresh tortillas!!! There were about 3 tables being waited on and I guess her limit is 2 done poorly I still left a generous tip but I wonder if I didn't do her a disservice? If big if we go back we will inquire who our waitress will be because if it is the sister from the waitress scene from the movie hell or high water we want be back read more

Mexican Inn Cafe! They were definitely busy this evening, but it was woth waiting for those amazing corn chips and tortillas... The food, as usual, fantastic! The manager, Amy stopped by our booth and said hello and made sure we were all happy and the food was up to our expectations. Exceptional experience and will be back soon... read more

I askwd for no pico due to my hatred of onions. I made it very clear that onions were the scourge of the food universe. When I received my order, my first bite was a mouth full of onions. When I move the food to see why, I found where the pico was scrapped off. I would prefer they completely re-plated the order instead of hiding their mistake. *See Picture* read more

my server Angel was great! he was very knowledgeable on the menu and was very polite ! will be coming back!

A long time favorite memory for my BF, so when we went to Texas we had to go back. At first based on the reviews I was sceptical but when we pulled up it was a very up to date place, serving texmex. The margaritas were strong and delicious. The frito chips were just wonderful, something I had never had at a restaurant. Salsa was average but I prefer a chunky type. A party of 8 seated in the covered patio area very comfortably. We were brought drinks and queso for the table fairly quickly. They even have butter on the table to go with the warm corn tortillas they bring. Not my thing but the others loved them, a Texas favorite apparently. Steak fajitas, steak quesadilla, chicken enchiladas, tamales, taco, rice and beans.. all good food based on the fact it was gone quickly. Good food and service! read more

This place has gone down hill!! They weren't all that great before they temporarily closed. But we decided to give them a try right after they reopened and it was horrible. The chips were stale and when we asked for more chips they said they were out and had to get some from another location. Food wasn't all that great and my wife said the margarita tasted like disinfectant cleaner. It's sad, this used to be our favorite Mexican food place. read more

Food is great and so is management. I ordered take out and when I arrived to pick it up I saw that the order was slightly different than what it should have been. The manager came up and asked what was wrong and I told her the order wasn't correct and that she could just add the enchilada that we were missing and it would be fine. She said no, we'll fix you new plates and you can have both of them plus your original order. That's called making up for a mistake in a big way. Most other restaurants would have just said "sorry" and taken the plate back and put an extra enchilada on it. Thank you! We will be coming back again! read more
