This review is all about the hostess service -- or lack thereof. Over the years, we've had more than our fair share of hiccups with reservations at Tejas, but last Saturday took the cake.Around 2:30 pm, we joined a short waitlist for an outdoor table, providing my number to receive a text when our table was ready. While waiting, we wandered through the shops around Bishop Arts, keeping an eye out for the message. When the text finally arrived, we headed straight back, only to be told that the "8-minute grace period" had passed and our table was gone. Their solution? Join the waitlist... again.Now, here's the kicker -- there were clearly open tables both inside and outside. So, naturally, we opted to take our appetite elsewhere.The real issue wasn't the waitlist, the text alert system, or even the 8-minute policy. It was the attitude of the hostess on duty. Her indifference was palpable -- unbothered, unhelpful, and uninterested in doing anything but sticking to the script. This wasn't a one-off experience either; it's a pattern we've noticed time and again at Tejas.For us, long-time neighborhood locals, this was the last straw. Next time, we'll head to Veracruz Cafe or any of the many other Bishop Arts spots where neighborly charm isn't just a tagline -- it's a way of doing business.

Stopped for a late night bite. Enjoyed a few different types of tacos at this comfortable attractive Mexican food restaurant.I ordered a single Vegetarian Taco, mild but tasty.The rest of the party ordered a 12 taco bite size plate. They enjoyed the little mini tacos. The other tacos were flavorful as well. We had 6 people at our table and everyone was satisfied with their order. The drinks were fun and yummy.Decor was pleasant and comfortable and the service was friendly and prompt.

Came in on a Saturday with a friend and it was quite busy! Ended up sharing an appetizer but came for the drinks! Customer service was fast and it was very lively. Great location near all the stores and bars. Want to come back and try some entrees!

Went on a whim Valentines night 55 mins before closing. They were so nice! From the hostess to our waiter. I had the veggie Taco and Tropical Sunrise mocktail. Delicious! My cousin had the chicken fajitas, they were good as well as the veggies also. I will say the sides were not that great. The charro beans were soupy and bland. Good service, very cute inside! Affordable! I will try it again for brunch maybe.

Absolutely amazing experience!! Our waitress, Mayely, was amazing, she recommended us the Tejas Tacos and the pastor. The drinks were a little on the strong side but overall amazing. I will be coming back!! Thank you.

Cool spot to dip into for bites and bevs. The house chips and salsa was interesting. The chips come with a chipotle/southwest spice on them. Not bad, just different. I ordered the mini tacos. The beef tacos were flavorful and packed a punch.

Tejas is a reliable spot in Bishop Arts. The margaritas are some of the freshest tasting in Dallas. They are a nice clear color in contrast to a lot of the greenish ones at other places. The food is always tasty as well! You can't go wrong with any of the options. The bar was taking much longer than usual, and my drink did not come to the table until our food did. The server was apologetic but nothing was comped. The ambiance is very colorful and fun! They also have a decent size outdoor dining space.

I came to Tejas at the insistence of my brother and his girlfriend, who live in the building directly above it. By brother, a Yelp Elite member himself, confirmed to me that "this is a solid four star establishment, but I think you'll like it." The pretentiousness of that statement aside, I mentally prepared myself for a solid four star experience. Upon entrance we were greeted with a free appetizer (complimentary of living in the building next door) and a server who was quick, charismatic, and highly attentive. So far not 4 star, but there was still room for them to fall. The food came out quickly (another 5 star indicator) and, upon tasting it, was great. More five stars. My brother, increasingly anxious at the exceptional culinary experience unfolding in front of him, began to mumble about a "wholly changed experience" and "the possibility of new management."Afterwards the check arrived quickly, and our party shuffled out full of good Mexican food and a healthy amount of shame.

Really liked this place! Got the taco plate with one tejas taco and one birria taco - smaller bites but really yummy! The consume was a little too salty. Got the cucumber margarita and was refreshing! The service was excellent tho, got seated very quick and our waiter was very kind.
