Reviews for Monterey's Little Mexico in Grand Prairie, TX
Great lunch experience. My coworkers and I have wanting to try this place for some time and we went today. Colorful atmosphere.... Attentive and sweet staff. All of our food was fantastic. The salsa was so good. We plowed through a couple cups of it whichseldom happens. Then we got some appetizers...Mexican Corn. Guacamole Salad, and the shrimp, crayfish and spinach dip (WOW!),they were all delicious! Then out came our meals. Allow them were good. We were all sharing about meals with each other. PS ...all was good except for one thing....the air conditioning condensation was dripping on our table. That was gross. Please fix. Read more

Food was good. I took off a star due to the fact our server was doing whatever she could to get the almighty dollar. We asked... for some queso, she didn?t ask if we wanted a cup or a bowl. We said a cup, and she brought a big bowl, we thought maybe it?sjust a big cup we asked, and we?re assured, when we got our check it was almost 11 dollars for a bowl. We were told there wasnothing we could do, because we did eat it, but we were told one thing and brought and charged another. We also, all orderedenchiladas and asked if it?d be cheaper to just get a plate of enchiladas and two plates of rice? we were told, yes. But shedidn?t do or implement it? as a result it affected her tip, because we were charged entirely too much. So we could only affordto tip so much, 50 for a meal, BEFORE tip is ridiculous! Read more
My wife's fajita meat was not cooked properly.... The manager came out but he lacked proper social etiquette to handle our... situation. While he comped my wife's entree, he seemed more put out by the situation than attentive. The queso at this placeseems more like and nacho cheese than actual queso. It was not worth the $8 charge....

Very nice place for a Saturday lunch. Not busy, but maybe a positive review will help. I had the lunch fajitas with cheese... sauce. OMG so good, hot, plenty of food! Mine were pork, served with sour cream, Pico, cheese, guacamole, rice and beans! Thecheese sauce is a must for something different. My wife had the Special to be back: Shrimp Enchiladas. Also, is reportedlyawesome! Service was prompt, courteous, friendly, and just great. They were a little short on chips (do to a supply chain issue)salsa was very good, a little on the hot side. Side note: restrooms are a bit date, but very clean and the door locks work.However, on a cold day-it was colder in the restrooms. Go enjoy!! Read more
TLDR: ORDER CORRECTLY AND DETAILED. I mean in detail and mix and match, do not leave the choice to the waitress. They will serve... you all ground beef or "seasoned beef". Order the Wings, And Quesadilla. Do not get too many items with "seasoned beef! Theflavor overwhelms you and it all tastes the same. My fiancee had always told me to go check this Tex-Mex restaurant out. Shehyped me up, but it was more hype than anything in the end. I ordered the Grande Platter and a chimichanga a la carte. Thechimichanga was nice and crisp and the queso sauce really put it over the top in taste. Rich and the Seasoned beef (groundbeef) The Grande Platter had: -1 Flauta Seasoned Beef -1/2 Small Grilled Chicken Quesadilla -1/2 Small Grilled Steak FajitaQuesadilla - Some Seasoned Beef Nachos - 1 Fried Mozzarella Stick - 3 Fried Chicken wings - Ranch sauce side - Marinara Sauce -Buffalo Sauce - Scoop of Guacamole on top of Nachos I tried this after the chimichanga... And the Quesadillas were awesome. Thelittle fried wings were great too. But all the season beef (ground beef) in the flauta, the nachos was overwhelming. I did notenjoy it to be honest. I stopped eating half way because the flavor was shadowed because of all the seasoned taco beefflavor. My suggestion, when you order make sure to vary the meats if possible. I didn't get asked what meats I wanted, but justTELL the waitress to vary it. It is not pleasant to eat different samples of dishes when they all taste the same seasons beefflavor. My fiancee ordered a Beef Enchilada plate. She ate the enchiladas, but the rice was kind of off... I didn't like it onebit. The taste or smell wasn't the best on the rice. The beans were great, they smelled good and rich in texture. Overall Iwanted to rate them at least a 4, but I just was not pleased with my first time visit. I'll give them another try and maybeupdate if anything changes. Read more
