This is such an amazing Tex Mex spot in Dallas. The pulled pork tacos are packed with flavor, so definitely order those. The fish tacos were also good. I don’t order fajitas that often, but these are the best beef fajitas I’ve tried. They were so crispy and the peppers/veggies were delicious. The sopapilla dessert with honey is also tasty. The interior is warm and cozy. I will definitely return for a second visit.

Best known for their Pozole which I’ve gotten soooo many times before. Tonight I tried something different. The Brisket Poblano Pepper was one of the best meals I’ve had here. Hot sauce is really spicy. Margaritas are not the best I’ve had but are good. Great service and authentic atmosphere. Will always come back.

Ok, I was coming from the airport and wanted good Mexican food, this randomly popped up and man was I happy. Had no idea this place was on DDD-but it absolutely belongs on the hallowed grounds of Guy Fieris show. The salsa and chips were insanely good and the salsa had a perfect heat to it, and the guacamole appetizer was good fresh made chunky guacamole. We got a smattering of fantastic foods: elote shrimp tacos, black refried beans, pasole and beef tamale and a torta thing (it was part of the DDD dish that showcases the highlights of the place), got pork tacos as well. We finished it up with the flan which was *perfection*. I live in AZ where we have great Mexican food but I would absolutely rate this as some of the best I’ve ever had. The beef tamala was my personal favorite as was the elote shrimp tacos. Come here! Totally worth it!

Let me start by saying that I haven't had Mexican food like this in a very long time. Avila's checked all the boxes. Good chips and salsa. Good queso. And a variety of dishes. Anything you might want, they have it on the menu. I had the Gorditas and they were fresh, crunchy, and delicious. I was surprised by how much food we were served. They definitely don't jip you on portions. Even the coca cola was good. Again, food and drink were amazing. Finally, the service was amazing. We were taken care of by two of the waitresses. They were kind and attentive. I never ran out of soda and our food was out quick. They made me feel like family and aside from the food, the service these two ladies gave me and my bf will be one of the main reasons I will come back. Thank you again to the staff at Avila's. You guys know how to do it!

Love this hole in the wall! Great spicy salsa. The chicken fajitas are so flavorful! Highly recommend the food. Parking is a bit difficult however but solid hole in the wall spot

Real deal Tex Mex, Enchiladas are a must get and staff is incredibly efficient. Always crowded with limited seating but they move people in and out. Salsa is spicy, you can't stop eating it though.

This is a Dallas Tex-Mex staple! It's been around forever, and for good reason. Spicy salsa, chicken enchiladas that are hard to beat, just all around good food at a good price. Sometime it can get b…

Went with some coworkers for lunch during the week. I ordered the 3 soft taco plate with ground beef which were really good. The refried beans were also really good however i was not too impressed with the rice. The chips and salsa were also fresh and really good. The salsa was extremely hot so be aware!! I would definitely return without hesitation.

I found this restaurant from Tripple Ds and the food was delicious I got chicken fajitas came piping warm and the shells was freshly cooked. The onions were so fresh you could taste the grill making! Our server was super attentive and made sure our drinks kept coming. Just a must check out and see

Andrew Anderson

Avila's is a cozy restaurant with some authentic Mexican and tex mex dishes. If it's your first time you'll want to pay attention because it's so easy to pass. Parking is located between the restaurant and the auto shop next door. Food was good. I enjoyed the shrimp fajitas and my partner had the chicken gordita which they enjoyed. Salsa that comes with chips tasted great with the perfect amount of heat. Service was okay. Our waitress was attentive and checked in on us multiple times. Overall Service 4.5/5 Parking 4/5 Atmosphere 5/5 Food 4/5 Cleanliness 4/5

Came by for lunch and it wasn’t busy at all. It’s a small restaurant but it’s really cute inside. Ordered the beef gorditas it came with rice and beans. Gordita’s was decent, rice and beans were really good. Also ordered the Triple D - Tamale was greasy and had no flavor. Brisket Gordita- dry and no flavor. Pozole - this was really good. This also came with rice and beans. Service was good.

They are super friendly and attentive. Food was really good with lots of flavor. We really liked their micheladas. I had enchiladas a la mexicana and hubby had chile rellenos with ranchero sauce. Both were delicious. I ordered a side of the ribeye steak but was not impressed with it. It had way too much fat for me and was not as tender as I would of liked. Salsa had lots of flavor and hubby liked the queso. All in all good food but I am still on the hunt for the best enchiladas.

Spur the moment lunch. Very friendly service, as well as attentive. Hubby had chicken fajitas, not exactly what you would expect. But good. I had sour cream enchilada, it was OK, the sour cream sau…

I use to really love this place. The food is actually quite good. I think it's actually better than Ojeda's down the street. However, the service here is nothing to be desired. There are usually two female waitresses here that do the serving. The taller brunette is usually more friendly than the shorter one but she doesn't smile much. That's okay I guess. However, the shorter more heavy set lady with glasses...she can be so rude and has a horrible attitude at times. I have actually avoided this place and went to Ojeda's because I was concerned I'd get her again. The food may not be as good at Ojeda's but the service is excellent/superb. Maybe that's one of the reasons the place is so crowded and packed most of the time.
