I'm sort of surprised I haven't reviewed Don Mario's yet. We've been eating here literally for years! It's our favorite local "Mexico City" Mexican food. Our favorites include: Mole enchiladas, Carne Guisada, and the Albondigas. But nearly everything is good. The wait staff is friendly and you know you eat here too often when they know our "usual margarita" order. Finally, we almost always eat outside on their patio, which is covered, heated, cooling fans, and dog friendly. Give it a try!

As I was looking for Don Mario I didn't know that they moved so when I returned I figured maybe I can just follow Directions on the new Don Mario's restaurant. First I was seated in the very back where they have a TV which I didn't mind and that's what I wanted was privacy also the chips were amazing with salsa I loved it. I also enjoyed the enchiladas which was fantastic I will be coming back often because of the fact that I am now available to enjoy more different dishes on their menu. I highly recommend the enchiladas with the white sauce. I was very impressed with how attentive the waitress was. The ambiance I figured is so so it wasn't as nice as the first restaurant to be honest but this time there was more of a closed off without views of any kind. So maybe I was a little disappointed in the restaurant layout. You have to ask for also if you want corn tortillas or flour tortillas and they do charge you for them. Several restaurants do and several restaurants don't depend on which restaurant ... I don't mind that at all. The location is off 620 that can be very busy but overall there's plenty of parking they have mariachi's that come and saying that is awesome I had to leave before they came out but I saw them walking in so I know that they always have mariachi's on Friday and weekends. Enjoy 'happy yelping!'

I really can't understand the negative reviews. This is one of my favorite places that I have visited and the food is authentic Mexican food. The amount of care they put into their food really shows. Even their drinks are amazing! They muddle fresh fruit into their margs and not one thing I've had there is sub par. I also loved the mariachi band they had playing. What a fun place!

Nothing fancy, just solid Mexican food. The service is nice and fast, quality is consistent, and some nights they have a live mariachi band!

Lots of parking! Every time I drive by it's full of cars. There is paved parking, gravel parking and I've seen cars parked in the grass area. They have seating outside, and it's covered. Lots of space outside from what I could see. I walked up to the hostess desk, and they sat me right away. I sat down and an order of complimentary chips and salsa came to me right away. The salsa is warm, which was wonderful. And the chips were perfectly salted. The waiter took my food and drink order. I decided on the beef enchiladas.The beef enchiladas came 2, topped with cheese and lettuce and tomato on the side. Also came with Mexican rice and black beans. The black beans were mashed, not bean shaped. Sort of like refried beans. Not sure if that is how they serve black beans. They were good. I was expecting actual bean shaped and solid beans. The whole meal was delicious. I loved everything. Enchiladas were big. I only ate one. And took the second one home for lunch for the next day. Service was great. Good was great, price was moderate. A lot of food, good value. Totally will come back again. Happy that I gave them a try.

Very good Mexican food. The warm salsa and chips are outstanding. The Mexico City bistec and Al pastor tacos were very tasty. Service was quick and friendly.

The food was about average and not particularly memorable to me. Mushroom gorditas were well seasoned but a little soggy and the mole carnitas enchiladas were good if light on the mole sauce. The sauce is good but you don't taste the chocolate. The carnitas was juicy and tender and probably the star of the meal. The tortilla chips that are complimentary at the beginning are also rather good! The beans and rice were fairly bland. Frozen margarita with jalapeño actually ended up not fully blended with big chunks of jalapeños and you can see how the mango just sat at the bottom of the drink. Service was attentive and pretty quick during lunch time and the patio is super awesome to hang out on when the weather is good. There's also a good amount of room indoors. Parking wise there's ample parking. There's a busy turn off the road (not at a light) if you're approaching from the wrong side of the highway, so keep your eyes peeled so you don't miss the turn. It's also super close to OG Agave if you want to see some stupendous cacti and succulents.

Negative review for a reason! Gave this place another try and wow bartender area is not the place to sit! Food very good, not amazing, but very good, but the service down right stinks! How can 5 out of 5x stink! The owner catered to some drunk group by the bar who was buying shots from a $500+ tequila bottle. Disappointing!

I've been a loyal customer of Don Mario since 2021, often bringing family and friends. Today, a staff member accidentally ran into my table, breaking my glass bottle of pumped breast milk and scattering shards on my diaper bag. The shards cut me and ruined my bag, forcing me to leave without milk for my baby. While I understand accidents happen, the manager's response was inadequate. He offered only an apology and a band-aid, and when I later called the restaurant to express my disappointment, he blamed me for not asking for compensation. Significant property loss occurred. I need to be compensated and it is not appropriate for the customer with glass shards In her hand and no milk for her baby to beg for that. After well over 40 visits, this experience has changed my view of the restaurant. I won't be returning.
