    Party of 4 Visited on a Saturday morning at 11am. There was only 1 other table. Service was very slow despite the few people. They were out of Bloody Mary mix and didn’t have regular frozen margaritas…only strawberry and mango. We had to ask for more chips multiple times and the $15 Birria tacos tasted like they were days old and not made fresh like other restaurants make them to order. All of our table was very disappointed with the experience and will not be back.

    To start, the waitress got frustrated with my fiance when he asked her to bring us silverware and plates to eat our queso flameada appetizer? Took a bit to receive my margarita, which they have an award for “Best Margarita of Fort Worth” on the host stand). Let’s just start with that bartender must’ve been off that day. It was HORRIBLE. Tasted like cucumber and maybe half a shot of tequila, if that. Our dinner went on, nothing exciting about the food, just meh. But our waitress completely dissappeared and never returned to serve us. Thankfully another server jumped in to get us taken care of. We will not be returning here for low quality food, bad drinks and horrible service.

    We discovered Paco's a couple of months ago on a weekend getaway to Ft Worth, and the food and margaritas have been great both times. Our daughter was visiting from Nashville, and she can't find good TexMex there, so we had to take her to Paco's while she was here in addition to her other favorite places. Be sure you know which location you're making your reservation at. Both times I've made reservations on Open Table, I thought I was making them at the Sundance Square location, but both times it was at the other location a couple of miles away. Not sure if it's user error or they have the restaurants coded wrong on the app, but be careful on your reservations.

    Great food and service, but 2x now, there have been flies (indoors). This last time it was really bad. We complained the first time, back around June, but apparently nothing has changed.

    I made a reservation, through Open Table, for a Monday. The restaurant was closed. Doors locked. No one insight. No sign on the building saying it was closed on Monday. Open Table did not state it is closed Mondays. Very disappointed that Open Table allowed a reservation for a closed restaurant.

    Date night for the wife and I- Came in to like mariachi music - small venue but I was little be okay- then 9:00 hit and the strobing lights hit Im epileptic- fortunately I’m not photosensitive to trigger but it does give me a headache Volume was too loud to have a conversation mostly without yelling Music decibel is that if a large club and it’s again a small restaurant - it’s good food mostly margs were way more ice than drink so drink sizes are deceptive I had been craving their fried tacos which is why we went- But after this- prolly won’t be back honestly

    Went for mother's day and called twice in advance and was greeted by more than one person but we weren't told that they were doing an extremely limited menu until we tried to order. Food was still good, just wish that we would've known because we weren't expecting breakfast food only..

    I realize it was Cinco d Mayo but the service was very slow, food selection limited. 10 min until water, another ten minutes to take order, had to get utensils myself, food out one hour after seating, and then the drinks came after we finished our meal. Then upset stomach all night.

    We had an open table reservation for 12:15 PM on a Friday and we were seated immediately. We ordered 1 soup and 2 entrees after a reasonable time delay, and were given chips and salsa to enjoy. Salsa was good, the chips were warm. However, it was a full 45-minute wait from that point until we received any additional food. My husband and I both considered this to be completely unreasonable. We ordered directly from the menu, with no modifications. My husband received his lunch entree simultaneously with his soup. My entree came several minutes later, without the tortillas and no mention of their absence. After I flagged someone down to ask about them, I was told they were coming. They did come a couple minutes later. While the food itself was quite tasty, hot, and enjoyable, my husband and I don’t plan to return again because the timing of the delivery was so very off (without explanation or any apparent reason or apology), that it made the dining experience an overall negative one. There are too many other places from which to choose! I had been there once in the past with a friend when it was a much smaller place; it was mid-afternoon, no crowd, owner/chef visited with us, and food was served quickly. This most recent experience was nothing like that one. Except the food itself was tasty.

    This restaurant is not following any CDC health guidelines even though they state they are on this app. They state they have patio seating and they really don’t. The food was on par with Taco Cabana at Mesero prices. One server was wearing a mask and no other staff members were masked. Bathrooms didn’t have paper towels for drying hands. Complete lack of responsibility for keeping a healthy and safe environment for customers.

    We went for Cinco de Mayo, so we anticipated it being busy. Our server was amazing and the food and drinks were great. However, the bar was so backed up, we had to wait an excessive amount of time for drinks. Then, we were charged regular prices vs happy hour prices even though we ordered during happy hour. Overall, it was still a fun time with friends.
