My family and I ate here a few months ago, and honestly I don't know how or why there are so many good reviews for this place. The place was packed on a Saturday night so thought, maybe there's more than meets the eye. Wrong. It was dirty and everything looked run down. We ordered fajitas for two and also a kids enchilada meal for our son. The chips were thick and greasy, and the salsa was flavorless. Our meal came out and most of it felt like it was from a can. The chicken was rubbery, beef was just about inedible, and the rice felt like it was made from a uncle ben's box mix. All of it had zero flavor. When the server came to collect our plates (which were nearly untouched) she asked how it was and we honestly said it was bad. She said she was shocked and no one had ever complained. The manager took everything off the bill, that was the only good thing. I was honestly worried we'd all get food poisoning from the little that we did eat. It was probably the worst meal I've ever had at a restaurant. Hard no on ever going back. read more

Food is really amazing with great flavor to it. Has more a west coast feel rather then your text mex style you see everywhere.

Unfortunately we can not rate the taste of the food. Our first visit was not as we hoped. After waiting one hour we kept inquiring about our simple order. We would be told 10 minutes, but nothing would happen. After a few times of this, we canceled our order, offered to pay for our water, and chips and left. I think they just forgot about us. I wished when we inquired they would have made an effort to push our order out, but they did not. read more

Went for taco Tuesday's and happy hour. Some of the tacos were $1.50 each and margaritas were $3.75. We had the Pastor Tacos, Chicken Tacos, Brisket Tacos and Beef Tacos and enjoyed them all. The service was good but a little slow as they were busy and only had two servers. Not a lot of sitting as it's a smaller restaurant read more

Oh my goodness we just walked in and it smells like their toilet has backed up into the whole restaurant. It was horrific we asked the waiter and waited on us and he said yeah it's the plumbing I said OK no thank you we cannot eat here. He said OK they know it's broken and yet they are still running their business. Can you imagine the food?Sad This is not a Third World country that you can except that kind of smell you're paying for that food that should not be excepted. I know the strip center makes you pay for all your own repairs it's obvious they're not fixing their problem. read more

Im not impressed with the food neither the service, they got me hold on for 30 mins and finally hung up on me, they always short on people no matter if the food is good I won't never come back!!!! read more

Just have to say, Thank you for collective reasoning, cool and calmness. I have had takeout brought home to me and it is exemplary. I watched a defamation slanderous video posted today from an experience endured by staff yesterday, the woman should have gone to jail instead it was only a trespass violation, she threw chairs after she returned with takeout that landed on the floor as she was driving home. She returned, staff would have exchanged it, not restaurants fault! Law says can't return money unless food is present, that was even offered after it was on the floor! Kudos and God Bless! read more

first and last time going here just because is late doesn't mean you have to serve leftovers everything was really bad i have to send my tacos back because the meat looks like charcoal the servers are really nice the food is really bad never coming back again read more

God bless everyone that enjoys this restaurant and I hope the keep on supporting. In my case I tried this place for the first time with wifey. It doesn't look bad from the outside once your inside the place is small and has this dingy feel . We were told to crab a table in the back it was the only table available so I figured that's the one! The place is not clean! The chair,tables , wall are dirty and appear in bad shape not to mention the foul odor coming out the restrooms. The food was subpar. The tortilla soup was as thick as gravy and salty. The staff was friendly so I give them 5 stars. I will definitely not return. They seem to have a customer base and decent reviews. Just not the place for me! read more

We just ate here for the first time and I had to write a review. The food is authentic, fresh and really delicious!!!! I highly recommend this restaurant. I had crisp tacos with chicken and the Queso- very yummy!!! read more

Stopped by for lunch after house hunting. We are Mexican food snobs...cute little place, lots of parking. Chips and salsa were yummy. They have chorizo Queso which was yummy, but I'd prefer more chorizo. Service was good and you can tell it's a family run place, which I love. I've been craving authentic enchiladas, with corn tortillas and no chili con carne...I ordered the green chili chicken enchiladas. They were very good, in fact the best ones I've had in the year of living in the area. The chili verse had the perfect amount of kick and the chicken was moist and flavorful. Cant wait to try the tacos on my next visit! read more

Amazing food. The rice is by far some of the best I've had in a longtime. Highly recommend this place

Great place!! Tried it while at Lake Ray Hubbard. We were blown away how good this place is!! Highly recommend

I love the tacos and chips and salsa. The menu is small, which is okay. The menudo is great as well. read more

This place is by far the BEST Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. I can't even begin to explain how good not only the margaritas are, but the flautas, rice and beans, and honestly everything is amazing and tastes homemade. Not to mention the prices make it even better and the service is awesome too. This place is a true hidden gem & I will most definitely be back!! read more

The shrimp asada burrito here is amazing, it's probably the best burrito I've had around DFW 10/10. Ask for habanero salsa if you like spicy, and the creamy green salsa for good flavor. Chorizo bean dip with grilled jalapeños is also a great starter. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming! read more

Service and atmosphere were nice. My food was ok/ordinary. My friend loved her cheese chili rellenos. I will probably not come again (other favorite places in the area), but my friend has returned with others. read more

We tried this place the other night. It's extremely low key, run by a family who casually waited around for me to make up my mind about my order. Everything was really spicy, which isn't my thing when I'm not expecting it (looking at you, complimentary salsa and the enchiladas my mom ordered that I stuck bites of). The flavors were okay, but I was just expecting something more I guess. I'd come back if someone wanted to go, but I wouldn't seek it out if it was my chance to choose dinner. read more

Senaida's is the best most authentic food around. The service was great and speedy also, clean. I've been a customer for over 2 years now but barely writing a review (I know I suck) but it's the only place I'll go for Mexican food. It reminds me of home. Strongly encourage anyone and everyone to go and take their family. read more

Great little Mexican food spot, had the steak and shrimp fajitas, they were amazing. They start you with chips and salsa, but not ordinary chips, homemade! Waitress was so friendly and attentive, great experience! read more

Always consistent! We enjoy this if we're looking for something quick. I'd say skip the enchiladas (they were rather bland even with sauce) and go for the tacos, tostadas or flautas. The tinga tostadas are BOMB. read more

The food and service were horrible today especially the service! I usually go here on the weekends but I wanted to check out the Taco Tuesday special they had so I went today. Our server was a thicker Hispanic long hair chick and she had such a nasty attitude with us and didn't even want to serve us. We had to wait 10 minutes or more just for a drink refill and when we ask for something simple like a spoon or chips and salsa, we had to keep repeatedly asking because she doesn't stop at our table much. I was there for an hour and half and she stopped by my table twice. Also, she didn't write our order down so she kept messing up my simple order! She messed up my order the first time, so I repeated to her 2 flours and 1 corn tacos and guess what, I got 1 flour and 2 corn. -_- She seriously need to write these order down instead of keep messing up people's orders. I won't be back and if I ever do come back, I'm going on the weekends because I never seen her on the weekends before which is a good thing. I regret tipping her! That's how bad the service was. The carnitas meat was really dry and old looking today and they barely give you any meat I guess because it's Taco Tuesday special. Wow Taco Tuesday was a failed today thanks to this horrible place. Don't come here on Tuesdays unless you want bad service and food. read more

Everyone in there is super friendly and always checking if you need anything else. I love this place. It's small and cozy perfect for a date. read more

We had noticed this place a while back and decided to give them a try. We are so glad we did. We shared the Molcajete which had beef, chicken, shrimp served in a large molcajete. At the bottom was this wonderful mixture of napalese, chorizo, black beans that was saucy and had so much flavor. Do not ignore this little treasure!! It was served with rice (average), beans (delicious) tortillas, guacamole/pico/sour cream. The meat, shrimp and chicken were tender and cooked very well. Overall this was a really good meal that my husband and I shared. Plenty of food for us. Our only suggestion would be add some grilled onions please. I had read the reviews and I was curious about the tacos so I ordered one corn bistek. It was a little smaller than I'm used to. It was served w onions and cilantro and a lime wedge. This taco did not win me over, but I'm particular about my street tacos. The service was very friendly and attentive. Our drinks were never empty and she remember my lemon!! Huge points for that. All in all we really enjoyed our meal and we will def be back!! read more

An excellent small restaurant. The shrimp nachos are amazing and the waiter Tristan always provides excellent service!

Food was absolutely delicious, great service, beautiful atmosphere, definitely will visit again, Morris Baker

Good food and always friendly service. We've eaten in the restaurant and ordered delivery and food is always good.

Excellent service and food! I had the three cheese nachos with brisket. The best nachos I've had in ages.

Friendly staff and amazing food! Try the Brisket tacos and my personal favorite is the Menudo. Best Menudo in all of DFW in my opinion!!

This restaurant has really authentic Mexican food San Luis style! For Breakfast lunch, happy hour or dinner this place is 100%. You can tell that the put alot of love in making their food. The staff is always very friendly and atmosphere is very welcoming. Me and my niece go almost every Sunday morning, the pancakes have become her personal favorite and Shes a very picky eater. Senaidas has become one of my favorite places to go eat for a quick bite at a great price. Tuesday is Taco Tuesday 1.50 tacos and they even have flour tortillas read more

I won't order from this place again. Lots of choices in the area- this one isn't worth it. They didn't answer their phone for me to place the order. After I ordered at the restaurant, I was told 10% gratuity would be automatically added because my to-go order was for more than $100. I always leave a tip on to-go orders, but making it mandatory was irritating. And when I got home, I discovered that multiple items were missing from the order. Why force gratuity on to-go orders if you're not even checking for completeness of the order? And I can't even call to let them know since they won't answer the phone! Food was sub-par. Beef fajitas were tender. Street tacos were good, but brisket was not very flavorful. Queso was great. Chips were too thick - I prefer a thin chip. read more

Really good, very legit Mexican food. Small place where they remember you. Street tacos are fantastic!

Food is okay, if you enjoy menudo with No homey it's good. The enchiladas are a bit dry. There Flautas are good. read more

Okay I am definitely on the late crowd for this Mexican restaurant, we went here for taco Tuesday and of coarse got tacos! They were by far the best street tacos in Rowlett! I highly recommend the jalapeño taco! I also tried a margarita that was also so delicious. Only negative about this place is that it's small, so you may have to wait. But definitely worth the wait. read more

Best nachos in Texas! Senaidas is consistently good Mexican food! Love their specials and tacos!

Freakin amazing!! Looove this place!! It's all good so don't worry about figuring out what's good or what's not. You cannot go wrong. What a hidden gem!! read more

We did not care for the food nor did it seem clean. All staff wore masks and gloves and spaced customers apart. Silverware was left in an open container and picked up as waitress served food. There was a spill and waitress got down on her hands and knees to clean spill with a was cloth that looked like the same one they cleaned tables, but I'm not sure on that nor did she wash her hands at the visible sink. Now the food, we neither one finished 1/2 of our dishes. Green Chili enchiladas tasted like it was made with canned chicken. Onion cheese enchiladas were stuffed with onions and white queso poured on top, gummy as it cooled. Rice was gummy and didn't touch beans. Chips and salsa were the best thing we ate and chips were small pieces, and somewhat funky looking and tasting. read more

This spot was great before . When I first started coming with my wife it was excellent . Lately however , service has been atrocious . My last 3 visits alone have sucked service wise . incorrect orders , taking forever to get my order taken etc. read more

Great food and really friendly service. We stopped by on may 4th to get the jump on cinco de Mayo. Really enjoyed the molcajete, but bring your appetite! The only knock was the chips, which I prefer thinner and crispy rather than crunchy. Will be back! read more
