My family and I have been dining at Esparanza's for decades. Breakfast is our go to. Honestly just stepping foot in the restaurant brings back so many memories. The smell from the bakery to the delicious food. There is something being served that's going to leave you with a lasting memory. Recently I reserved tables on the covered patio for my daughter's 15th birthday breakfast. There were heaters on so it wasn't so chilly. But honestly after a few rounds of their delicious bloody Mary's you won't need the heaters!They graciously accommodated our large party and even had multiple other parties with us that morning. Our waitress was amazing, she handled us perfectly and always made sure all of our needs were met. Five star service for sure!My favorite breakfast dish is the migas half order. There is soooo much food I'm never able to finish it. Easily makes 3 meals. The corn tortillas are my favorite! Dipped in their yummy refried beans you can't go wrong. And don't forget an horchata! My daughter loves their horchata! She orders it every visit. Definitely a Fort Worth landmark that deserves recognition.

This used to be my go to spot for breakfast, but they jacked up the prices and the service is terrible now. My food was served cold and the server offered to microwave it for me. What a joke! There are plenty of better options nearby.

We came here after watching the longhorn cattle drive at the Stockyards; with a fairly large group of 7, we were worried about being sat (indoors with the AC for sure lol). There wasn't any issue & they sat us immediately, which was a nice surprise. Our server was also excellent: attentive, funny, & just seemed like a really nice guy. We each ordered a drink, I got a piña colada. The cocktails mostly came in huge goblet glasses, which was awesome, especially for the price! They were really tasty & refreshing. Each of us also got a little dish of salsa & then baskets of chips for the table, which is how you can tell this was going to be a bomb meal. I got Huevos rancheros & this was seriously some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. The eggs were fresh, the refried beans were just incredible, & the potatoes were delicious. We all ate ourselves into a food coma because it was all so good that we couldn't help it lol. Toward the end of the meal, we also got 2 tortilla warmers full of fresh tortillas, which we ended up taking home because they were so so good. At one point there was also a mariachi band, so that was super fun! We were joking about moving into the restaurant & that feeling still stands! I'll 1000% be back to Fort Worth, if only for Esperanza's.

Came to eat here on Sunday before heading to the Stockyards. Very disappointing. This place has definitely changed how they cook their food. Joe T dinner was a joke. Anyone remember ElPaso frozen dinner, I think they popped it out and reheated it. The Gordita was decent but should be called a Gordita. The meat was good but it was just a corn shell stuffed with plain meat and quickly became fried. Definitely not a "Mexican" restaurant. More like Tex - kinda mex. Very disappointed.

I ordered the sour cream and chicken enchiladas and a house margarita,I really enjoyed it. My partner ordered the Uno combination and a Tamal, his food was alright.We also ordered the queso con carne, I would probably skip it. Our waiter was nice and prompt with our order. The place needs a little love. We went on a Thursday evening and the place was dead, we were the only other table there. I would see this place as a nice spot to go and support the community but not as a go to place when in town. I failed to mention, the tortillas were really good and they have also have a bakery, their pan dulce looks good.

Took a look at the menu and could decide what to get. We landed on a few different menu items: barbacoa tacos, caldo de res, menudo, and caldo de pollo. They put a lot of meat in the tacos. You could easily make 2-3 tacos if you split the meat up. The caldo de res was way better tasting than the caldo de pollo. I would spend the few extra bucks for de res. The menudo was DELICIOUS! It's definitely a must. Food was priced reasonably for the portion sizes. My only complaint was the service. A little slow especially since there wasn't a crowd. This place is not for looks either. You come here expecting good, flavorful food and not really for the ambience. Also if you're looking for Tex- mex this probably isn't your place. Walk across the street to Joe T's for that.

Food was subpar.Cheese enchiladas tasted odd. Rice and beans were ok. Service was average. Ambiance is bad as the restaurant is quite loud.
