Located in Deep Ellum, Monica Aca y Alla features wonderful “Mexico City” and Tex-Mex specialties. You might think you were in a fine, trendy European restaurant. Hints of Italy and Spain surround you; scents of Asia fill your senses.

The finest in Salvadoran food. Although much of the menu is good, standard Tex-Mex, there's also enough exotica to make it interesting. Black-bean dip comes to the table along with the chips and salsa, and, if you like, plantains can accompany your enchiladas or carne asada.

Pappasito's Cantina, a Tex-Mex favorite, has been voted Number One Mexican Restaurant and repeatedly in publications across Texas. Pappasito's is famous for Texas-size portions of sizzling fajitas, margaritas and some of the best chips and salsa north of the Rio Grande!

Delicious, Freshly prepared fast casual food.

Ricardo's Tex Mex

Park Cities outpost of the popular Raphael's, with a similar menu and cozier atmosphere. Chicken flautas are especially good.

Qdoba Mexican Grill is another burrito/wrap joint, but one that holds its own among the competition. While it has many of the same ingredients as the McDonald’s-owned Chipotle, Qdoba offers a wider range of burrito flavors—like chicken mole, poblano pesto (also with chicken) and our favorite, the seasoned shredded beef burrito. The five salsas are very good, especially the medium-hot tomatillo, and Qdoba also offers a spicy, tasty tortilla soup. Friendly counter service.
