Been in Dallas for decades and never tried this place. Friendly staff, hot delicious food. Tex mex digs that give small town energy, right in the middle of the city. If you haven’t tried, YOU MUST.

We ordered at 7:43pm by 7:49 our food was hot fresh and on the table. I have never had service this fast and the price for an enchiladas dinner was 15 dollars. I need yall to understand if you are hungry want good service clean environment come here I promise you will not be disappointed..

I have been eating at Tupinamba’s for 30 years. The food has stayed true to the original recipes and that’s a good thing. Hot sauce is made each day and changes somewhat keeping it interesting, queso is yum, their ice tea is fresh and “pairs well” haha with the Mexican food. I always get the biggest combo plate so I can devour all of their offerings. But….my absolute favorite is the Tupy Taco. Great family owned place.

One of the best Mexican places in DFW I have eaten at. The food was fresh and delicious. I ordered the lunch serving of the Carnitas, and it was more then enough. The carnitas had a light crispy outside, but we're tender and juicy on the inside. The rice was perfectly cooked and did not leave a residue or taste in your mouth like some places. The veggies on the plate, fresh and crisp. The borracho beans were flavorful but not simply "salty". Atmosphere was busy (good for business) but never felt crowded, out of place, or uninviting. Went with some colleagues during a training, but will definitely take my family when back in the area. Would recommend to anyone.

We stopped by spontaneously on Sunday 2 weeks ago. Parking is super easy. The caffe isn’t busy but also not empty. We were there around 3pm. The food especially the salad was delicious. All the other food was fantastic too. Very attentive service. Reasonable prices. Will come back when I’m around.

Guadalupe was excellent! Such a beautiful spirit, she made sure we enjoyed ourselves! Even the hostess and front staff were very polite. The food was amazing!! My new place to enjoy good Mexican food!

Solid, old-school Tex-Mex done well. The Tupy Tacos are a must — crispy, satisfying, and kind of nostalgic. Service is friendly, portions generous, and you can tell this place has history. Not fancy, but reliable and comforting every time.

Wow! What an absolutely amazing experience here. Every time I come here it’s never a disappointment. I live further away in Plano now, so it’s been a couple years since my last visit. My friend & I ordered the queso to start, delicious.. For entrees we had Camorones in Creamy Chipotle Sauce & The Pechugade Pollo. I had to add on a tamale with chile con carne a la carte. The Camerones were fresh, plump, & so tasty. Served with a generous amount of sliced avocado & tortilla soup. My friend couldn’t finish so he’s excited for leftovers tomorrow. My Pechuga de Pollo, my go to meal was amazing. The chicken breast was juicy & seasoned to perfection. My tamale, with the chile con carne.. Illegal! lol. Juan & Martin provided the most outstanding service. I will be back! Highly recommend. I have never tried anything I didn’t love here. Come visit soon!

This is one of the best Mexican restaurants in Dallas. We scheduled a corporate business dinner with them and the food and service was outstanding. On evenings when we want to get out and grab a bite to eat we enjoy coming to their bar. Bartender, Luis waited on us and everything was so on point; from his service, the food and drinks. Great place, nice atmosphere, excellent Skinny Margarita's!!

Best Tex-Mex in Dallas. We've been going to La Tupinamba for many years. They've consistently been the best Tex-Mex in Dallas. The servers are always very friendly and knowledgeable at this family run establishment. I think most of them have worked there for years. Today was no exception. Always excellent service. The atmosphere is conducive to carrying on a conversation. And the decor is clean and contemporary. The food is always exceptionally fresh and tasty, well beyond that of other Tex-Mex establishments. I've never ordered anything at La Tupinamba I wouldn't recommend. The Tupy tacos are exceptional and they're simply not available elsewhere and shouldn't be missed. Like most restaurants, after patronizing them for years, I've gotten to know the menu well. Today I had a #1, which includes a Tupy taco, and many other Tex-Mex favorites. Rather than rice and beans I'll usually substitute for papas Mexicana (Mexican potato's) which are sliced newt potato's pan fried with jalapenos and onions...they're great and I'm not sure everyone knows about them because they don't come with every dish. This can be seen in the picture. They really go well with just about anything and are great on their own. My wife ordered the grilled catfish she loved it. I've had it before and, although I usually go for something less healthy, its excellent. I write plenty of reviews and I find it hard to put into words exactly how everything is this Tex-Mex restaurant is a step above every other Tex-Mex restaurant I've ever been to in Dallas, it just is. If you're in the area and have made it this far into this review, give a try. We drive past a dozen, or so, other Tex-Mex restaurants on the way to La Tupinamba and don't think twice about passing them by or the distance we travel because we know we're going to get the best Tex-Mex around. To everyone at La Tupinamba, thank you for the consistently outstanding food and service for all these many years!
