Tortilleria Matehula

Very good food. Here you can find the best one in the whole Texas and they are cooking the best tacos I ever eat.

To-go orders only. No public restrooms. Limited seating for customers waiting on their to-go orders. I had the al pastor tacos. They tasted great. Nice and moist. They were a little light on seasoning, but not dramatically so. The green tomatillo salsa was ok. I suspect it is probably Herdez brand, straight from the jar.

Tortilleria Matehula is a family run business and provides some of the best Mexican cuisine I've ever tasted. I was on a road trip and decided to stop to eat, I ordered 4 tacos (Carnitas, Carne Asada, Chorizo and Al Pastor), rice and chips & salsa. My entire order was phenomenal. The prices are more affordable than a fast food meal, and the flavors are unmatched if you like Mexican Food. The restaurant portion is currently closed due to lack staff since the pandemic, so the orders are takeout only, but the order does not take very long and the food is well worth it. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Delicious Breakfast Burrito! Tortillas and the red salsa were great. Would eat again. Don't expect to eat there on a Sunday morning though. Seating area was closed.

This was a cool stop and a nice break from the traffic on our road trip. I wouldn't mind swinging by when in the area again. We walked in knowing we were taking it to go because we had our dogs with us. I did see a separate dining room to the right though. The initial entrance has more of a deli setup. We went to the register and read the menu that is taped to the display case.The gentleman at the counter was polite and helpful. He let us know about their specials and the flexibility of the menu. While waiting a very brief amount of time, I noticed they sell their own tortillas and chips, as well as produce and snacks. I just liked the feel of the place. They aren't cash only, but there is a fee for using a card.I got a taco plate for $5.99. It was decent, but not my favorite. The pastor was very fatty and didn't taste much like pastor, it was lacking in flavor. The asada was much better in cook, cut, texture and flavor. The corn tortillas were very good. The rice was above average and the beans were ok. Their agua fresca is in jugs, but is made fresh each day. I got the Jamaica and it was pretty good. They make theirs pretty strong.The impression from my meal was they had potential, but were more in the 3 star category. Then I tried my husband's asada quesadilla and I changed my mind. It was so much better than my asada taco. The combination of the flour tortilla, cheese and additional seasoning was absolutely delicious. It was pretty thick and filling, this is a repeat order for sure.I'm not sure how much it was. We paid cash and weren't given a receipt. Quesadillas ranged $5-7 on the menu though.Next time we come through, I hope we don't have our dogs with us, because I would like to dine in. When the gentleman had described the two specials that day, they sounded really good but all I could think was that enchiladas are too challenging to eat in the car. I look forward to getting the full experience the next time we return.

Really exceptional local place on the outskirts of Dallas, a perfect place to get lunch on the way into Dallas, or on a day trip to Corsicana.The brisket street tacos are unbeatable Oh shit, the cops!

This is one of those places you want to love but it's not quite firing on all cylinders. I'll call this a 3.5-star review, but I'll round up to 4 because it's better than just A-OK. Just.From the outside, it looks like a hole in the wall. Good! Good start. When you walk in, the front room also feels small... but wait, what's this? To the right, the place opens up into a much larger room, with many tables and plenty of nice touches. Interesting! Not what I was expecting. But not bad either. Bigger room almost feels more like an Italian restaurant than Mexican. :)Everyone was super nice and service was great. No complaints there. Chips are clearly made in house - beefy and thick, fresh-fried tortillas. But they're cut a wee bit small - I'd prefer the triangles be a bit bigger. The salsa is awesome - really, really good.My only disappointment lay in the actual street tacos. They weren't bad, but I was expecting greatness based on the feel of everything. And they turned out to be decent, not great. Barbacoa needed more moisture. Chicken was decent - also needed a little something more. While much of this place felt authentic, the street tacos weren't quite there. The rice and beans were also... forgettable. Boring. Store-bought taste.Good:AtmospherePeople and serviceChips and salsa - I gorged on this and found myself considering buying their salsa in bulkNeeds a *leetle* help:Street tacos (at least barbacoa and chicken)Forgettable:Rice and beansI want to like this place more. It's a very likeable place. But it's kind of so-so, food-wise. A little hit or miss. I might stop in next time we're in town, but ... maybe not.

Very friendly and accommodating service. To-go only during COVID. In addition to menu items, they had housemade flour and corn tortillas, housemade gorditas, farm eggs, dried red chiles, horchata, coffee, etc. $24 for 4 breakfast meals and 3 drinks. Great value.

Excellent breakfast burritos. Their tortillas are some of the best I've had!!! It's to go only but great pick up breakfast.

Great service and the best Mexican food in town! The salsa is so good! We love the street tacos, enchiladas verdes and the quesadillas
