    Taqueria ventana is a great quick and casual option. The food is decent, but nothing particularly special. We got the chips and queso, 3 tacos, and the elotes. I was disappointed by the chips, but everything else was just fine. The service was good and all of the employees were generally friendly. They have great drink prices and specials, so I would definitely consider coming back for one of their happy hours or if I needed something to hold me over on the fly.

    I've been to La Ventana in Addison many times, and it's always a fantastic experience. On my most recent visit, I had two shredded pork tacos and two vegetable tacos, all served on corn tortillas (though they kindly let me know I could get flour tortillas instead). The flavor was outstanding--fresh, authentic, and full of that perfect balance of seasoning that makes their tacos some of the best around. Their corn is also incredible and always a must-order for me. To go with my meal, I tried their pineapple habanero margarita, and it was excellent--refreshing, with just the right amount of sweetness and spice. I sat outside at the bar since the weather was beautiful, and the atmosphere made everything even more enjoyable. The real standout, though, was the service. Robert, the bartender, along with his colleagues, was incredibly friendly, caring, and attentive. Since I'm a type 1 diabetic, I had some questions about the drinks, and they went above and beyond to check in on me, even asking a few times about my blood sugar levels throughout my visit and as I was leaving. They also mentioned how it helps them learn more about serving guests with different health needs, which really showed their thoughtfulness. La Ventana continues to be one of my favorite spots in Addison--not just for the food and drinks, but for the welcoming people who make the experience memorable. I'll definitely be back again and again.

    Third time here for lunch and the tacos de carnitas, pastor and barbacoa hit the spot. With a side order of queso and chips. They have friendly service that is very welcoming. Vibe here is very lively with a twist of some good Mexican music to top off this good restaurant.

    ....... READ THIS REVIEW ......... Very good food, reasonable prices and fun casual setting. Although I only had a quick lunch there - I'm coming back to try more items. Chicken Quesadilla: Really good! I like them a lot. Handmade tortillas, shredded chicken that is very moist (not greasy), flavorful and perfectly seasoned. White cheddar cheese and perfectly proportioned with to the ratio of chicken. Normal thickness (you don't feel jipped.) Very soft spicy heat at the end (not bad at all, heat is 2 out of 10). Overall score 9 of 10. Service was super fast (3-5 minutes and food was ready). Guacamole is really good. Most add-ons come on the side. If you want to add grilled onions on the inside - order it that way or they are 'on the side'. Also, the lettuce had tomato bits on top along with a full drizzle of sour cream. If you want only lettuce, be clear. Definitely go! I'll be back too!! Total score: 8.5 out of 10 (very casual)

    Nice place, chill vibes, but the tacos were not so great. I ordered 4 Barbacoa tacos and I barely got through 1 of them. A lot of it was fatty. Luckily I ordered chips and queso, too. The queso was delicious and thankfully so because otherwise, my entire meal would have been a waste. I'm hesitant to come back, but the crowd this place gets is making me think this was a one-off situation. I guess we'll see.

    I have been to this spot couple times!! I haven't been in over one year or so! But this will be the last! The tacos were bad! They were not nasty gross but they were not good at all!! Tacos de carnitas: not good! Lacking flavor! Carnitas was too mushy! Tacos de bistec: too dry lacking flavor Tacos de barbacoa: way way too greasy! Not enough flavor! Corn: no flavor- They charged me twice for my food! The only good thing here was the decor! I was a fan of this place but not no more! Totally disappointed

    You have to try their street tacos here. I highly recommend the barbacoa. IT'S SO GOOD! The meat is super juicy and flavorful. It'll transport you south of the border through a culinary and cultural experience. All their tacos are less than $3. Plus, the traditional white corn tortillas are handmade daily in the restaurant. You wouldn't think a Mexican place has a good burger, but the al pastor burger here is quite tasty. For the pineapple lovers, it includes grilled pineapples, which gives it a blend of savory and sweet. It's not a party without margaritas! Make sure to get the frozen mango margarita. It'll hit the spot. If you like a little spicy, try the version with Chamoy!

    Lengua (beef tongue), barbacoa and steak tacos.
    Aldo Q.

    My go-to order: 2 Barbacoa 2 Carnitas 2 Pastor Guac & Chips Maybe I will order two more, Lengua possibly. This location is our favorite for their service and music!

    Always great authentic food. Ambiance is great and makes you feel like you're in the heart of Mexico. My go to for street tacos.

    Affordable & tasty tacos & margs! Especially love the covered patio at this location. Plenty of seating inside & out.

    Chicken Nachos
    Devin C.

    Pretty good cheap Mexican food, but nothing special. The nachos were a bit bland but the queso definitely made up for it. There was a cool vibe to the restaurant with artwork everywhere. Service was fast, I'd stop by again if I'm in the area.

    Extra charges were not itemized. It was not until my friends sat down that we saw how much more I was charged
    Trevor H.

    This location, not sure about all locations, will nickel and dime you. They do not tell that Flour instead of corn is Extra. And they certainly don't tell you that extra onion/cilantro is charged as well. What should have been 16$ for 5 tacos ened up being 21$. The food is good, but it is not worth the price nor the hidden charges

    Terrance G.

    This was a spot had been wanting to check out as a hole in the wall taco spot. When you enter it definitely has a different feel from other spots and you'll order directly at the counter and csn place drink there's too, their margaritas are pretty good. They do give you a random name for your order, my name for it was Phillipe lol. I was fine with that but was thrown off when k had to go to the back kitchen where the food came out and pick up my order and deliver it. Just was something different and wasn't told so my food was slightly cold by the time it realized. The Al pastor was very good though and recommend trying that one. Had a light pineapple taste to it

We arrived before the lunch rush during the week and still had a 20 minute wait. I figured out it was probably due to a waitstaff shortage because there were plenty of tables available. I do love the decor of the restaurant and love the decorative glass on the ceiling. After our buzzer went off, we were shown to a table near the back. I noticed several really long tables filled with huge parties of business people. I ordered my usual entree - tamales and hubby ordered chicken enchiladas. I love snacking on the warm black bean dip and chips. I have to make myself stop eating them so I'll have room for my meal. I can only eat one tamale, do I took the remaining 2 home to enjoy later. I showed my server the email on my phone for a free flan. I'm not a real fan of flan so I asked if i could pay the difference between the cost of the flan and the churros, which I much preferred. He came back after checking with his manager and told me they couldn't do that. This was very disappointing to me. I was really looking forward to churros, not flan. I asked if I could take the flan home and it was packaged up. We enjoyed our leftover tamales and enchiladas. I really didn't care for the flan, so I doubt if I will go there again for the birthday freebie. I know I could have also ordered the churros and just paid for them, but it was only a flight difference in cost. I would have thought that if they truly cared about customer satisfaction, especially for a special event like a birthday that they might have made the requested accommodation.
