We drove in from Houston and saw the great reviews so we had to come. The taco de camaronos was awesome! The service was 5 star, the manager came over to make sure we didn't need anything. The atmosphere was inviting and welcoming. Before leaving, I am trying the dessert. read more

BRIBING FOR REVIEWS! Terrible food & experience - tried to bribe us to leave a good review! Be warned - good reviews are FAKE! We were so excited to try this place based on the reviews so we were so confused when the food, service, and everything else was so terrible. Then came the end of the meal - the waiter tried to bribe us to leave a good review by offering a free drink. Uh, no. There are so many great Mexican places in Dallas - this is NOT one of them. Bland food, dried out rice, veggies were mush, and the shrimp smelled way off, like it was bad. The server was so over the top pushy when we ordered but then was no where to be found until of course it was time to pay and be bribed for a review. Never going back and I will tell everyone I can what a sham this place is. read more

Man, I wanted to like this place so bad because it came highly recommended. There were some highlights, but I would say the overall consensus is this was a big disappointment. First off, this is very pricey. It's important to be aware that some of these dishes are $40 and up. Second, I immediately had some cleanliness concerns because the lamp shade over our table was covered with food splatters. When we arrived we were promptly seated....in a soaking wet booth. I'm in Dallas traveling, came here on my last day, and already checked out of my hotel. Pretty disappointing to sit in a giant puddle of water that soaked through my pants when I didn't have anywhere to change or easy access to change. Things happen so I just went with it. Our waitress came over promptly, we ordered drinks and appetizers, and she was prompt the whole service. She was also very friendly. We first got the chips and salsa. They were actually great. Salsa has a strong cumin flavor, which I found unique. We also got the shrimp cocktail. When the shrimp cocktail was dropped off at our table, there was a hair on the serving plate the cocktail was brought out on. We wiped it off since it wasn't anywhere near the food and decided to overlook this detail. I wish we hadn't. The shrimp cocktail was utterly great, though. Very unique with great spice. Then we got our entrees. The fajitas were mid at best. The quality of the steak was poor. It was very fibrous and hard to chew. The beans did not have a very good flavor. The rice was pretty but definitely not the taste I would want for a plate of Mexican food. The enchiladas were decent but the sauce lacked flavor. I ate one enchilada and then saw a big wad of black hair under the other 2. I was so disgusted I started gagging. That was the second dish we had hair on. The waitress was so nice about it and brought me a new plate of food. I kind of lost my appetite at this time since we had two plates come with hair, but I felt obligated to eat a little more since she brought me a fresh plate of food. After a few moments, a woman came to our table, did not introduce herself, but I presume she was the manager. She apologized for the hair and offered us a discount. I thought that was nice, but I noticed right away that her long black hair was falling all over our table. It became pretty evident who's hair was getting everywhere. She walked away and left our eating area with yet another wad of hair lying around. I spent years working in the restaurant industry, and I would never leave my hair down like she did. She did, though, and her hair was getting everywhere ruining our entire experience. Our "discount" was $3. $3 was all they were willing to comp for their complete lack of health and safety standards. I'm appalled and disgusted at the whole experience for the overpriced and mediocre meal we had. For the wet pants. For the dirty area and hair everywhere. I would never recommend this place and am surprised people actually told me to come here. I ate at so many great places while in Dallas and this was the only disappointment. If I could give this place zero stars I would. read more

Service was good, and the portions were generous. Usually, I feel that fajita plates are half bell peppers, but this one had a really good portion of protein. Also, the margarita was served decently strong. I do feel like it was a little overpriced though, as I went alone and just got one margarita and fajitas and paid $50. But I don't know Dallas as well, so maybe this is normal. I really like their outdoor dining area. read more

No. Not sure where all the high reviews came from. Maybe I'm not being fair but it was blah on the food side. The service was good though.

Don't come! Awful food and service. 20% gratitude is mandatory. The food super spicy and no other flavor. Their Google review is just a scam. read more

We came here for dinner on Christmas Day, not expecting many places to be open, we were so pleased to see that RJ was. The restaurant was decorated for the holidays inside , it was very cute! We ordered queso with chips and salsa as well. Both tasted delicious. We were served very quickly despite how crowded it was, and there were so many vegetarian options to pick from, making it a bit difficult for me! I was so happy to see that. I ordered the veggie chimichangas, they were seasoned well. Everything we ordered tasted fabulous, I was full and satisfied with food leftover to eat later. read more

Great lunch deals! Came during my lunch between classes. An entire plate of two enchiladas, a side of bean and rice for only $8.99 + tax? Worth! My friend had ordered a side of Queso, it was the smallest container ever-yet it was $4. I would come back during the deals, but I'm not sure about regular pricing. read more

Went there for any early dinner with our daughter and two grandsons. Our server, Ana, was great! She helped my daughter what to get her sons for dinner, and she was totally helpful. We never had to ask for anything. We even spoke with the manager, to tell her how much we enjoyed our visit there, as well as what a great server Ana is. Oh, by the way, the food was delicious! Ask for Ana, you will not be disappointed in the service she gives you. The restaurant is very enjoyable inside with the lighting and decorations. We plan to come back occasionally, since we only live in Mesquite. read more

We came here for a nice lunch while in Dallas and the menu looked amazing. Upon first taste of the rice, then the beans and chicken enchiladas, I knew I was in the worst Mexican food restaurant I have ever walked into! Given the price range, I really expected so much more in terms of authenticity and attention to details. I couldn't even eat my food. It was laden in Cumino [a little can be authentic, too much screams you have no idea how to cook Mexican food!] The corn tortillas in the enchiladas were cold and the chicken was super dry. My husband was starving and actually ate his meal of chicken fajitas that come sizzling hot but were absolutely bone dry and no flavor. His flour tortillas felt like rubber. Even Taco Cabana has better tortillas! My husband from Wisconsin knew right away that they were NOT even heated on a comal! How this restaurant has the rating they have, I have no idea. It reminded me of Mexican food on the Riverwalk in San Antonio.... all touristy, no flavor, no authenticity whatsoever! The Chips and Salsa were a joke! The chips were like from the cheapest bag in a grocery store, and the salsa was terrible. And really, you charge for this?! Even if this place had been decent.... I wouldn't have left a review. It was just a huge slap in the face of mexican cuisine no matter at what price! read more

I don't usually leave many reviews--and certainly not negative ones--but this place is truly terrible. The food was awful, especially the guacamole, which tasted fermented. The only genuinely good thing was the chips. And if your favorite music is mexican rap, you're in the perfect environment, taco bell is better and cheaper! read more

Good Tex-Mex (not great) at a higher price point than I am used to for a similar menu. Chips and salsa are not free but worth the price. Margaritas are very sweet but also strong. We enjoyed a beautiful table by the window looking out into the West End and we were quite comfortable. My partner ordered piccadillo tacos which he said were quite tasty, I had cheese enchiladas which were ok and the portion was so large, I took it home and enjoyed it for lunch the next day. Service was good, no free parking and we had to search for a while despite the fact it was 7:30 on a Thursday night with nothing much happening. Great place to take visiting family who want to play tourists. read more

All parts of this restaurant was wonderful. The customer service was top tier. This was my first time along with friends and definitely will not be the last. Our food was amazing. The meal was fresh and very flavorful. We live two hours away and would drive back to dinner for an evening out. The ambiance was nice. There's seating outside and inside. A win win! read more

Camilla makes the BEST margarita's!! Sat at the bar and had a great time, definitely coming back for the vibes alone!

I went to this rest to eat and the guy at the desk refused my service animal. I tried to explain the American with Disabilities Act (the LAW) allowed me and my service dog to enter. He still refused. a lawsuit will be filed as soon as I can find a lawyer and I'll end up owning this place and firing this 1dioT. The ADA law states in summary: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires restaurants to allow people with disabilities to bring their service animals into all public areas, including dining areas. Service animals are dogs that are trained to perform specific tasks related to a person's disability and do not need professional training or certification to be recognized. Restaurants cannot refuse entry based on fears, allergies, or health concerns, though they can ask two specific questions and may ask to remove a dog if it is out of control or not housebroken. What the ADA requires: Access to all public areas: Service animals must be allowed in any area of the restaurant where customers are normally permitted, such as the dining room and waiting areas. No discrimination: Restaurants cannot deny entry or charge extra fees for service animals. Only two allowed questions: A restaurant can only ask if the animal is a service animal required because of a disability and what task the dog performs. No proof of certification: Businesses cannot ask for proof of training or certification for the service animal. What restaurants cannot do: Prohibit service animals: Restaurants cannot have "no pets" policies that apply to service animals. Ask for information about the disability: They are not allowed to ask about a person's disability. Demand proof of certification: They cannot require documentation that the dog is a service animal. Segregate individuals with service animals: They cannot separate individuals with service animals from other customers. read more

Best Mexican cuisine -- BY FAR -- that I've ever enjoyed!! And, they are not costly! Two dinners complete with alcoholic beverages, appetizers, entrees and desserts was less than $100. I REALLY want to return here!! Love it!! read more

First time visit and I enjoyed my visit. The decor is kind of vintage meets modern but trendy. Our server was nice but average. Our food was delicious. I really enjoyed the fajitas and everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The sangria was fruitful and tasty. I did think the Mexican candy shots were overpriced and that is the reason for 3 stars. $27 for two shots seems a bit much especially when other places offer the same for a lot less. Overall I would return for the food and stick to either a menu drink or not drink at all. read more

The Guacamole is to die for. Loveeddd it. And we also had the fajitas that had such great flavor.

Came here before a concert nearby at House of Blues. We had to wait a little while to be seated. Our waiter took our order and the food/drinks came out in a timely manner minus my cocktail which took a while to receive. The food was a good temperature but the spice level was a bit more than expected. The location is clean and spacious. The restrooms were clean and well stocked. read more

Rj Mexican Cuisine - Beer Rita with Tacos el Pescado. A must try! - Mexican Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Astounded that this place has so many high reviews and not as many negative. Whole experience was sub par. Hostess sat us at a table that was dirty. The table had the personal belongings and dirty dishes from a very messy family at the adjacent table. (There were plenty of clean open tables, I have no idea why they sat us at the 1 dirty one that needed to be bussed) Quesadilla came out hanging off the plate touching the table when the server set it down. Very greasy, nothing special about the food. Barely touched the food and decided to leave before ordering entrees. Overall food selection was small. The only non-seafood burrito or taco option was a ground chuck taco. In a city with so many good taco trucks and Tex mex spots, don't waste your time and money here. It's not worth it. read more

Came here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. They don't have a lunch menu on the weekends, so you have to order from the dinner menu. This limited our options for a smaller meal, so we decided to order two bowls of tortilla soup and one plate of beef fajitas to share. The tortilla soup was very good, with lots of chicken and vegetables. It was well seasoned and warming. The fajitas were good - the meat was nicely cooked and the onions and bell peppers were caramelized. We also ordered Chips and salsa for $2. It was well worth it - very tasty chips with a nice seasoning blend. Overall, we had a sufficient amount of food. We will be back to try the lunch menu. Service was great! They kept our glasses filled and were very friendly. read more

I loved this place. We were visiting the museum of illusions and came in to kick some time. We sat at the bar and Bela was at the bar and let me tell you she was awesome. The margaritas were well balanced and we also ordered chips and queso- a steal! Portions was good for 2+. I had the perfect margarita and my spouse had the top shelf. It felt like we had met a friend from way back. We'll be back for sure. This place is a gem read more

The most ridiculously expensive Mexican food, ever! Steak Fajitas for $35, Combo Fajitas $50, 3 small tacos $19. Rice was undercooked, the fried red beans tasted bad. The only cheap thing on the menu is the chips and salsa for $2, which everywhere else is free! Absolutely not worth the price. Never going back. read more

Rj Mexican Cuisine had a clean and friendly atmosphere. The chips and salsa was good. The hubs ordered fish tacos he enjoyed it, but wish he requested corn tortillas. The tortillas were store-bought. I had sour cream chicken enchiladas they were ok comes with three. We both enjoyed the refried beans and the rice was ok. We believe many products were store bought rather than made from scratch. The "perfect margarita" was good. Overall, it was good food. We would probably not go again. read more
