5 Restaurant Chains With the Best Fajita Dinners, According to Diners
If you want to be guaranteed a freshly cooked Mexican dinner, always order the fajitas. After all, the platter of meat and veggies usually comes out sizzling hot on a skillet, ready to be stuffed in a corn or flour tortilla and topped with your choices of salsas, guacamole, chopped tomatoes, and lettuce, or however else you like to eat them. Where can you get the best version of the Mexican favorite? Here are 5 restaurant chains with the best fajita dinners, according to diners.
Pappasito’s Cantina
Pappasito’s Cantina, a chain with several locations around Texas, is famous for fajitas. The Beef Fajita is made with guacamole, pico de gallo, rice, frijoles a la charra, and fresh flour tortillas. “The flavors are the best and the portions are oversized. You cant help but over eat,” one fan said. “My go-to is the steak fajitas or steak quesadillas. Anything steak you can’t go wrong but everything is ridiculously good.”
Chuy’s
Chuy’s is known for its fresh (never-frozen) ingredients and made-from-scratch menu, especially its fajita dinners. Some diners maintain it is better than local spots. “Tbh it’s a chain but Chuys! They have better quality meat than most and the meat/veggies are marinated in beer! SO yummy! I love fajitas most places but they’re my favorite. Chili’s is also decent quality meat and flavor,” writes a Facebooker.
Chili’s Grill & Bar
Almost anywhere in the country, you can feast on fajitas at Chili’s. Choose from chicken, shrimp, or steak in the Classic Fajita Platter, served with flour tortillas, Mexican rice, black beans, grilled peppers & onions, sour cream, pico de gallo and shredded cheese. The Pick Any 2 option means an extra order of protein. “My husband always gets the pick 2 fajitas with steak and shrimp and it is delicious. We love it,” one diner said.
On The Border
On The Border Mexican Grill & Cantina’s Mesquite Fire Fajitas are a popular option with diners. One option is made with Skirt Steak. The platters are served with fresh, hand-pressed flour tortillas, pico de gallo, sour cream, guacamole, Mexican rice, and refried beans. “The food is delicious and flavorful every time I’m here. Ultimate fajitas are one of my favorites, along with chili rellenos and Southwest chicken tacos,” one fan said.
Rosa’s Cafe & Tortilla Facotry
Another Texas Mexican chain, Rosa’s Cafe & Tortilla Factory, is famous for its Beef Fajita Plate, made with tender marinated beef grilled over mesquite wood and served with bell peppers and onions, Mexican rice, refried or black beans, and three flour tortillas. It also includes a grilled jalapeño pepper, guacamole, shredded cheddar cheese, a lettuce-and-tomato garnish, and sour cream. “Had the beef fajita plate and a beer. The beef was very tender and delicious with a slight smoked flavor. Rice and beans were excellent. Fresh flour tortillas and the abundance of fresh condiments was fantastic,” one diner said.
