La morenita — Restaurant in Garland

My wife and I ate here Tuesday evening for the first time. I really liked their salsa and chips! But that was the highlight of our meal. We started off with a guacamole appetizer and when it arrived it looked very pleasing. But the taste was very salty. It took our waitress about 10 minutes to come back to our, and that was only to deliver our main meals. We told her about the problem with the guacamole and she said she would taste it in the kitchen. Again about 10 minutes later she returned and told us that we were right and thanks for letting them know. I had a taco plate and it looked great, but the taste was bland. Although I did enjoy the rice and beans. My wife had the brisket mole' plate and we thought that it had a strong taste. She told me that different regions in Mexico fix it differently. We waited another 10 minutes for our check and we figured that the price of the guacamole would've been adjusted but it wasn't. Our total bill was around$39. So the service was slow, but that was because she was the only waitress and also the bartender. And the food was just average. We probably won't return to this establishment. Thanks and...

UPDATE: This time there was no storm, they just keep the lights off in the entire restaurant for... some reason. Burrito was soggy to the point of falling apart in my hand but my wife's food was reportedly good.

Front of house only had one person working, a single waitress to handle the restaurant and bar so I was standing at the podium for about 8 minutes before I was even greeted and didn't get my food until 14 minutes after the notification for "It's ready!" came through. Chips stunk up my car with an over-fried/burnt smell that'll take a few days to get out. Overall, not nearly the experience I first had and likely won't be back. Sad because it's the best refried beans I've ever had, but there's plenty of competition for Mexican cuisine in the area.

ORIGINAL: Ordered for pickup, food was ready on time. Staff was friendly (though due to strong rainstorms there was almost nobody inside).

Food was excellent, ordered the flautas and Mexican burrito. Both very flavorful and visually appealing, rice flavoring was a bit strong but the beans were exceptional. Chips had a bit of an aftertaste but salsas were very fresh...

The food was phenomenal. I had the beef fajita chimichanga, queso fresco enchilada, avocado enchilada, a side of beef fajita meat(*), rice, beans and the queso blanco with ground beef and pico de gallo added. Complementary Chips and salsa was brought out after my drink order was placed. For salsa they provide both a salsa roja and a salsa verde, both of which were very flavorful and paired well with all of the entrees I tried.

*The beef fajita meat was the star of the show btw. It was so tender, juicy and delicious. I would highly recommend incorporating some of the beef fajita meat with any meal that doesn’t already include it

To drink I had the frozen strawberry mango margarita mixed with chamoy and a Tajin rim. It was so good I ended up having three of them.

My server was attentive and took great care of me throughout the course of my time there.

The only thing that I would have different,if possible, is the availability of a spicer and chunkier salsa alongside the already perfected red and green salsas that they...
