Please give me your best Mexican food restaurant recommendation within a 20 mile radius of Southlake/Keller. Willing to drive for something great. New to area.

Thanks in advance!!

Herencia is fairly new and really good.

We like Maria cucas in keller on 377. The only thing I ha e had there that I didn't care for was the burrito. The margarita is good the fajitas are fantastic. Never had anyone I've taken there dislike it.

Baja in Grapevine has knock you on your butt Margaritas and decent food. Esparazas in downtown Grapevine is good atmosphere

Haven't been yet but the reviews are excellent.

Los molcajetas in haltom city

I can vouch for baja, esparzas, and Tommy tamale as being good.

i'm ready to get blasted for this but...

chuys overall. i'm a sucker for their happy hour nacho bar and the mexi cobb salad

mi cocina. mambo taxi is great and mama con hongos might be my favorite overall dish

anamias. table side guac is great. also kinda a family favorite so sentimental in that regard.


all in southlake proper. if you're looking for non-chain, other recs are probably better

20 mile radius and new to the area? Go to Joe T's in the Stockyards. It's beautiful this time of year. If you want Southlake then yea, Gloria's, Anamias, Mi Dias (grapevine), Uncle Julio's (grapevine)

But it is quite nice this time of year. I'd go to Joe T's for the patio and ambiance but not if I was looking for great Mexican.

Dos Molina's (near Stockyards) is quite good.
And I haven't tried this one as it's definitely out of the way for us but El Paseo on 199 south of 820 is always loaded. It looks promising.

Best atmosphere in the metroplex, and just as good of food as any of the sub par places listed above. Anyone new to the metroplex should go there at least once, it's a Fort Worth staple. What's your recommendation?

The food at Enchiladas Ole is as good as any I've had in Fort Worth.

This is the right answer for good food. Been in DFW for a year and have found every Mexican place around here to be mediocre until I tried this place.

If you are after walk-up casual Mexican and you like it spicy hot, Chiloso is good. Their nachos are really good, but be sure to ask which toppings are extra spicy if "hot" is not your thing.

Otherwise, you can't go wrong with Esparza's, Mi Dia, Uncle Julio's, or Mi Cocina.

Baja Grill in Grapevine.

Mi Dia in Grapevine

Esparza's and Baja are comparable to Chuy's (I like Chuy's....)

Mi Dia in Grapevine is always good. La Familia off W. 7th (Foch St.) in Fort Worth used to be the best, but I haven't been in a few years.

Los Amigos in Grapevine for breakfast.

A few months late, but another vote for Los Molcajetes

Maybe I did it wrong but this place sucked. Had the brisket tacos.

Another vote for Los Molcajetes. There's another one at 114 & 377 in Roanoke which is more convenient, if you're in Southlake.
