    This was our first time visiting this restaurant and we had a great evening. The service was fast and friendly. Our Bartender, Carolina was the best Bartender ever! We met some cool people at the bar. We had a couple drinks and ate fajitas. Overall, we'd come back.

    We dropped in for lunch after hanging out at 'falliday at the Lawn'. Food arrived rather quickly so you wouldnt have to wait a while if you're hungry. I had the chicken & beef fajitas, which was just okay. I would've liked the beef to have some more flavor, but that's just me. Great service a nice as well.

    The menu is very varied and with many options for different tastes. I recommend it 👍 The food is very delicious and the prices are not expensive. If you are near this place go and visit this nice restaurant. It's worth it.

    I recently dined at Guadalajara Hacienda and had a wonderful experience. I ordered their quesadilla, and it was simply delicious. The cheese was perfectly melted, and the filling was flavorful. It's clear that they use fresh ingredients to make their dishes. For my drink, I chose the strawberry lemonade, and it was the perfect refreshing complement to my meal. The balance of sweet strawberries and zesty lemon made for a delightful combination. The service was excellent, and the ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting. I highly recommend Guadalajara Hacienda for a delightful Mexican dining experience. I can't wait to return and try more of their dishes!

    I passed by here so many times but didn’t have a chance to dine in until yesterday. It is located in a nice block with surrounding buildings and a spacious with security car parking lot. Food was good, seasoned well but the portions is kinda small. They also have variety of drinks. Waiting line is 25-35 mins even with table for 3. When I sat down there are plenty of empty tables so I think because of short staffed the waiting line is long. To sum up we had a great night. Good food good service in a happy place.

    They have the best fajitas here. The chicken fajitas are so flavorful and juicy. However, the lime beef fajitas are exceptionally good. I am very picky with Mexican rice, and this place met my standards. Another big plus is that they make their corn and flour tortillas here. The flour tortillas were so good.

    I tried this place for the first time this past Saturday. I did take out and the food was good. Their flautas were pretty good. The sauce that came with it was mediocre. I ordered a side of guacamole and they put it in the same container as the chopped onions and tomatoes so it turned the guac into a watery mess. So therefore I couldn’t eat that!(that’s why I’m only giving them 1 star) I was furious but I didn’t have time to go back in and complain because I had to get back to work.

    The food tastes so good. As a Mexican it truly reminded me of home! The staff was extremely friendly. This is on the expensive side of the Mexican cuisine. But the portions are large!

    Very satisfied! We had a group lunch of 5 for work at Guadalajara. Sergio was our waiter and did a wonderful job. He was attentive, prompt and friendly. They have sweet tea. It could have been a little sweeter; Afterall, this is Texas. It was refreshing though. We started with the white queso. Perfect consistency; not too thin, not too thick. The chips have a good light crunch. They bring red sauce and green sauce with the chips, but you have to request the green. It's very VERY good, so don't miss out on that. I had the Tacos Al Carbon with beef. Very tasty! I asked for the Tex-Mex gravy and cheese on the side so I could control the amount on my soft taco. I added some of the gravy to my Mexican rice and it was fantastic! The beef was flavorful and tender. The rice was great and the refried beans were good too. Very happy with my choice - no food envy here! I love the decor of this restaurant. Ornate light fixtures and old timey Mexico look really add a good feel. Feels authentic and non-ordinary. Well done on all points. This doesn't affect my review, but a couple things I found notable: They have the largest forks for a Mexican restaurant. I've been to steakhouses with smaller forks. The metal overlay on the table has a smell. It's that metallicy type smell and I couldn't get it out of my nose. I have a very sensitive sniffer, so that's on me. No one else mentioned it at our table and I didn't bring it up. Airing to you all instead. :) Happy with my lunch today. Will return to try other options. Lunch was paid for by the boss, so I am not certain of the total. My portion, according to the menu prices, was $13.95. Not bad for the amount of food and the quality. A+++++++

    Nice place but they reduced their menu to a point where one would say you eat what we have. Nice and clean facility. Client tale is from memorial area and across freeway. Food quality is getter low but taste was good . Their lime fajita is very limey . Overall I recommend to everyone especially with family and friends.

    I visited Guadalajara about a month ago for a business lunch. (I never leave reviews because I always forget but this one stuck out to me.) Vivian was our server and she was excellent. She came to the table with a smile on her face, she kept our drinks full, packaged up my left overs, and even complimented my mascara. She was just a kind, sweet soul, and personable. I have worked in restaurants I know how hard it can be to show up to work with a positive attitude. Dealing with the public can be a challenge but she was wonderful. Never lose that side of you, Viv!

    Never sending your kids to this restaurant is terrible. Don't order anything if you don't wanna food poisoning. Too an unhygienic and harmful restaurant. Note:plz see the mark picture on the top of the sauce there is a hair.

    As you walk up to the entrance the architecture, interior finishes and decor set the ambience. Our servers, Leslie and Keith, made the experience rememberable with excellent recommendations followed up with their attentiveness. The service, the food and the experience are among the best. Kudos to all.

    Great experience! I went there with family and almost everyone loved their food. I had vegetable enchiladas with 1 of them with cheese only (forgot to take pics) which comes with rice and beans. Their Mangonada drink was delicious, a must try! Great ambiance and service! Highly recommend going here. Pics: Mangonada and traditional margarita and Vegetable fajitas.

    First time visitor and my friends and I had a good experience. I had the tortilla soup and it was fine. The broth was a bit too thick and it needed more flavor. The house margarita was great. It was freezing inside but overall, good time.

    Lively and tasty. It’s a popular restaurant. We went there late and there was still a line. The food is made with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavors that are sure to satisfy any cravings. To top it off, the restaurant offers a variety of tequilas and margaritas to complement your meal. Overall, dining at Guadalajara Hacienda is an immersive experience that will transport you to Mexico and leave you feeling fully satisfied.

    So I was recently in a country other than Mexico, and it made me want Tex-Mex on a Wednesday..... What a fine decision that was!!! H-Town has a plethora of dining options and it can be quite difficult to choose sometimes. Thankfully, my craving for Tex-Mex let me to Guadalajara Hacienda! This was possibly some of the best Tex-Mex I've had in quite some time!!! The service was fast and attentive. The chips and dip were delightful. And the main course... was absolutely spectacular!!! Highly Recommend Guadalajara Hacienda!

    I usually go to the location in The Woodlands but this location was closer. I love the lime marinated fajitas and I got the shrimp ,chicken , and steak fajita meal. I specifically asked to substitute the regular beef for the lime marinated fajita meat. There was absolutely no lime flavor in the meat. I honestly think the kitchen or waitresses dropped the ball. I did ask her about it and she replied that it was lime-marinated. There was absolutely no lime flavor in it. The Lime Marinated Beef in The Woodlands is wayyyyyy more flavorful than what I had. The chicken was also flavorless. I wasn't asked if I wanted flour or corn tortillas . I usually get corn tortillas and if she would've asked , I would've said corn. I won't fault her 100% on that. It took about 8 minutes for the corn tortillas to come out. I didn't get any lettuce , pico , guac , sour cream or anything. By time my corn tortillas came out , my fajitas were not hot. The chips were never refilled or anything. I was about to send the entire meal back and have it remade but my wife talked me out of it. My daughters fries were cold on the kids meal and the strips were super over cooked. My daughter didn't even eat 1/4 of it and really none of the cold fries. I didn't have time to wait another 30 minutes of more for another meal either. Awful experience!! The drinks were pretty good and the white queso. My wife liked the huge shrimp, the beef was pretty tender but no lime or flavor really. The waitress was nice to but my chicken and lack of condiments ruined my long anticipated Guadalajara experience. This was my family's 2nd outing since the covid shutdown in Feb 2020 We were sitting there ready to go but yet waiting to see her to even pay. .
