Chepa's Mexican Grill - Mexican restaurant in Allen - 1223 W McDermott Dr #5, USA

I rarely give a place 5 stars for all categories. We were very impressed with the service and food. We accidentally found this place and could not be more happy we did. We will definitely be coming back for the fish and shrimp tacos. Our servers were engaging and very considerate is our kids. They even brought out a sopapilla for my sons birthday! Great experience and can't wait to return and try more of the menu.

It was amazing! I'm not a big restaurant person but I loved every second here. The food was delicious, according to my mom the margarita was perfect and the staff are so sweet they make sweet tea look plain. Every moment in here was perfect.

The margarita was severely watered down and malnourished. My son and I had to wait nearly 30 mins for our food and the food was terrible and COLD (I can tell that it was just sitting in the back). We witnessed two customers come in 10-15 mins after us, get seated, and got their food asap wayyy before ours. I never had a tamale with a pound of masa and so little meat in the middle. Both of our cheese enchiladas were cold. The Charra beams were bland and watery - no flavor at all. We both left very disappointed and dissatisfied and will NEVER return to this restaurant again. The food and service was straight 🗑️!!!! I didn’t finish my meal. Waste of my hard earned money! 😡

Great Mexican food. Reminds me of the La calle Doce in Oak Cliff. Service was attentive and restaurant atmosphere is more work casual, not a fast food type of place. Very clean. Could be a nice date night or girls night out. Next time I'll try the flight of margaritas.

We went on a Saturday night. Staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered Alfredo's Favorite - chicken w grilled onions, mushrooms & pablano peppers. The serving was pretty generous. Although chicken didn't have a lot of flavor, the onions, mushrooms & peppers were delicious. I was disappointed by tortillas though - store-bought, not freshly made in house - as I am sensitive to the smell & taste of preservatives in store- bought tortillas. If that's not an issue for you, then it's a pretty good place for a good size portion. For more depth of flavor and fresh tortillas, I would suggest other options.

This is our favorite Tex Mex restaurant in the Allen area (by far). The food is tasty, spicy, and well prepared. The chips and salsa are great. Prices are reasonable, especially at lunch during the week. The servers are attentive and cheerful. The margaritas are excellent, and the house magarita is only $5 on Monday. Since it is popular, it can get noisy at night. We've thoroughly enjoyed every dish we've had (except I thought the chicken burrito was not as good as everything else).

Food was great, took a while before a server came to our table, but once they did, the service was speedy and accurate. Menu was not overly large, and that could be a good thing or a bad thing. No one was disappointed with their meals in any way.

Service was great. Super friendly and on top of it. Waters filled. Food came fast and any requests were filled in a timely manner. My son loved the Abuelita's tacos, but the other dishes were mediocre. Bland and dry. The Lojo Special meat had little flavor. The tamale was almost all Maza and dry.
