    Consistently Wonderful! I go back to Tony's Mexican Restaurant on LN610 every time--and I love it every single time. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and comforting, and the service makes you feel right at home. It's one of those rare places where you know exactly what to expect: a great meal, a warm atmosphere, and an experience that keeps you coming back again and again. Tony's has become one of my true go-to spots, and I can honestly say it never disappoints. Highly recommended!

    Service was great! They are always so busy so it's great their service is good. Margaritas are good and strong, frozen is pretty sweet though but I'm sensitive to sweet drinks. The food is pretty average. Queso is decent, good enough to keep eating it when you're hungry. Salsa was not good. Chips weren't the best. Quesadillas were ok. For the price the food isn't terrible. It's a very casual place.

    Lunch special, delicious cheese enchilada, taco, guacamole & queso shell

    I'm so glad I went yesterday. It's been a long minute. Sooooo good! The salsa is warm and delicious. I couldn't stop eating it. I ordered the first thing off the lunch menu. I didn't get the name. It came with a crispy taco, puff with queso, cheese enchilada & guacamole. I was a little sad that it didn't come with rice & beans, it was good the way it was & it left me room for dessert. Everything was delicious and fresh. The guacamole was creamy and delicious too. I opted for the tres leches after asking the attentive server and it was good, not the best in my opinion but not the worst. Staff was very attentive. The only thing was the music seemed to be really loud. Or maybe I'm just getting old. Lol Will definitely be back.

    A roach across the bar

    This was my favorite restaurant for twenty years, and one way for me not to come back ever is roaches! I was at the bar, took some friends for the first time they witnessed the roaches moving across the top at bar. I told the bartender and he was like okay. The manager comes to say I'm sorry, she wanted to offer me a free dessert. Why would I eat anything from here, we had two margaritas: she didn't even give us a discount. I can handle anything but roaches.

    Visited this place during my lunch break with some coworkers. The hostesses were super friendly from the moment we walked in greeting us with a warm welcome. They walked us to our table where immediately a server came over and got our drink order. We ordered skinny margaritas to start off. My margarita was perfect but my coworker said hers was too strong. The waiter noticed her reaction and offered to fix the problem for her. Super nice! They bring complementary chips and salsa but we also ordered queso. I was surprised at how good it was! Super flavorful and came with a side of pickled jalapenos. So good! For my entre I ordered the pechuga poblana stuffed with shrimp. This is a huge dish! This shrimp stuffed chicken breast comes smothered in the most delicious and creamy poblano sauce. It also cames with white rice, homemade tortillas, and some of the best black beans ever. The black beans were the highlight of the entire meal for me. This Mexican spot really nailed the beans!!! I have a small appetite so I ended up taking half of my plate to go. It tasted just as good for lunch the next day. My coworkers also really enjoyed the food here and we have decided to add this to our frequent lunch spots. 10/10 service and food quality so you really cannot ask for more!

    Does Tony's serve breakfast and if so, on which days?

    So do they have breakfast every day? Menu not on their website for breakfast.

    Had lunch here today, and noticed a difference in menu, price, taste of food. I have been a long time patron, and liked the change but was just wondering if they were under new management?

    New management and ownership. Food and - thank goodness, the margaritas - seem as good as ever to me. But now open on Sunday!

    Do they allow dogs on the patio?

We visited around 5:00 PM on a Sunday and were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately for a party of two without a reservation. The restaurant is huge, and despite being very busy, the service was efficient. We were seated in one of the back dining rooms and greeted with complimentary chips and salsa, both of which were delicious. The atmosphere was fantastic--packed with World Cup fans, with what felt like everyone wearing a soccer jersey. As fellow futebol fans, we loved the energy. Being from California, we're fortunate to have access to some excellent Mexican food, so we were a little hesitant about trying Tex-Mex. I ordered the chicken fajitas with flour tortillas and a passion fruit margarita. The chicken had a smoky flavor and a sauce that gave the dish a distinctly Texas-style twist. The flour tortillas were outstanding, and the refried beans and rice were just as enjoyable. The passion fruit margarita was also a standout and something I'd definitely order again. Overall, this was a great dining experience and a place I'd recommend for the atmosphere alone. The restaurant appears well-equipped to accommodate large groups, making it a great option for gatherings. Next time, I'd love to return with a bigger group and take advantage of one of their margarita pitchers!

Margarita 4/5- Good and strong very limey and nice tajin rim Charro beans 3/5- Pretty mid flavor like just basic. And they came out lukewarm warm teetering on cold. I've had way better. Fajitas 3/5- I really wanted to love these. They look great and the cook was perfection but the flavor was super plain. I felt the need to add salt.... My partner agreed too. Not good. I won't be back but I appreciate it for what it is!

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!

On one side was a family with three young children playing a loud game involving frequent shouting and slapping on the table. There was intermittent drumming which the parents were oblivious to. On the other side was a large group facing us engaged in very loud ongoing conversation. The result was an atmosphere that made it difficult to enjoy the meal. Service was also inconsistent. Our server offered chips to accompany the Tiradito but she never brought them. Overall, the evening was disappointing. Between the unwelcoming reception from the dour hostess, noisy seating arrangement and lapses in service, the experience was far from enjoyable. Could not wait to leave.
