Don Artemio Restaurant

I am born and raised in Mexico and I can say that I have never been to a Mexican restaurant in Texas that is this good. This is a real high level Mexican restaurant - the food is really unbelievable, the service is beyond excellent (kudos to Ulises who was our waiter and was the nicest and gave great recommendations!) and the environment of the restaurant is elegant and classic but authentic. We cannot wait to go back again to try new dishes and get that exquisite 3 leches cake that is by far the best I’ve had in the US!

Ohhh my, this was our 2nd experience, and all was GREAT! Benjamin, Benjamin our Server shared soo much knowledge of the menu, not to mention he’s very knowledgeable of the plethora of Tequilas, Mezcal. His energy is very warm and welcoming. Thanks sooo Much Benjamin! We enjoyed the Filet Mignon, the Ceviche and fried Cactus… again overall amazing and enjoyable!

This is the place to go if you’re wanting a fancy but unique Mexican inspired experience. Be prepared to see famous people there like Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russel and Taylor Sheridan. The service is top-notch. The atmosphere is beautiful. Ask for Abigaile, she took very good care of us!

We had an amazing dinner at Don Artemio’s! Our waitress Maya was absolutely fantastic super friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations. The enchiladas were bursting with flavor, the tortillas were fresh and warm, and the chorizo was some of the best I’ve had. We finished with the tres leches cake, which was perfection light, creamy, and the perfect ending to a great meal. Maya really made our night special with her kindness and attention to detail. Can’t wait to come back and we’ll definitely be asking for Maya again!

Don’t expect a cheap meal here. That being said, the ingredients - the taste - the presentation - and the impeccable service are not what you’ll find at a typical Mexican restaurant in DFW. We drove from McKinney, almost an hour drive per the recommendation of another foodie and restaurant owner so we had high expectations. This place didn’t let us down! Try the top shelf margaritas, and cactus appetizer Nopalitos Fritos along with some guacamole! My wife got the filet mignon and I went with the special. Both were excellent along with the Fresas con Crema we split for dessert. Next time we’ll try the Tres Leches! Yes, we WILL be back!!
