Best Traditional Mexican Restaurants in Northeast Dallas

Hidden gem! Cool vibe and great ambiance. The drinks were great and the food was delicious. Not all the pretentious fake people you see at other Mexican "cuisine" restaurants. Really enjoyed it! Definitely going back!

They were out of liquid nitrogen which is why we came to celebrate my Mom's bday. Very disappointing.

We both ordered a cup of tortilla soup for $5. I always like to try a soup when I can. It was very tasty. I’m glad they offered it at that price for a nice single appetizer. My husband got the pollo Agave which was a breaded chicken breast with mushroom sauce, Chile mashed potatoes and a chayote slaw. I tasted the sauce and was surprised it was heavily laced with sherry wine. I don’t generally get steak but was intrigued by the New Mexico tampequenia with cheese enchiladas. The skirt steak was tasty but tough and chewy. I generally don’t order steak for this reason. It’s a difficult protein. The charro beans were excellent and now I know another preparation for chayote squash. This place has so many good choices but I wanted to try something different. I was sorry we didn’t share the Mucho Platillo. Best thing on the menu. Mi Dia doesn’t make Tex Mex. It’s completely different. Every dish is unexpected, delicious and beautifully prepared. I tried their margarita of the month made with cinnamon agave, tequila and pineapple. It was heavily smoked too, which I enjoyed. I liked the Riviera Maya better. We were too full for the Rocky Road ice cream but I highly recommend it.

Imagine if you were invited to a close friend’s home on a cold saturday night after a rough week. You are craving some good, non-judgmental conversation, some laughs, a freshly cooked home meal, and to feel fully content in heart, belly, and mind. that’s what this experience was. topped off with a beautiful culinary and cultural tour of the best food from central Mexico. If you appreciate food, this is an experience you cannot ignore.

We enjoyed our lunch very much - service, ambience and more importantly the food is Mexican origins with a modern twist - excellent!
