    We dined at the Mexican for our 40th anniversary. We were on the patio which was lovely and quiet. Inside the noise level was louder. The food was all excellent and the ice cream dessert cake was amazing. It is expensive but definitely worth it was a special night out. We will return again.

    Lots of hype. Lots of pretty people. Great service. Food on par with reasonable expectation. Prices slightly pretentious. Nothing on the menu to overwhelm. Atmosphere great, “hot new”, crowd. Patio nice. Many seats open at bar for a walk in.

    I used to love going to The Mexican however after going there yesterday evening I was very disappointed by both the service, the value and the food quality. I got the scallops and shrimp main entree and I got 2 scallops and 2 shrimp for $46. That's ridiculous especially given the number of high quality seafood and steak restaurants that have opened up in Dallas recently. On top of that, the shrimp were overcooked and the rice that came with the dish was just greasy. My friend ordered 2 drinks and I got a topo chico and I asked the server if we could get separate checks and she said the restaurant doesn't provide separate checks. In 2025 what restaurant doesn't do separate bills!?!? Highly disappointed in this experience and I will not be returning. Save your money and your time and skip this place.

    Amazing experience. Started off with a tour by Joseph that shared intriguing details about the design and artwork. The server did a fantastic job of guiding us through the menu. Great tasting cocktails and the food was great. My first restaurant in Dallas and it set a high bar. Looking forward to coming back.

    Hands down my favorite restaurant in Dallas. Everything from the valet, to the chips and dip, to the staff is top notch. Food is incredible and our waitress was so nice. My boyfriend and I went for our 3 year anniversary and she thoughtfully brought us glasses up champagne to celebrate.

    Thank you Holland! We will share this with the whole team!
