Esparza's in Grapevine is pretty good. Might be too far out of your way, though.
124 E Worth St
Grapevine, TX 76051-5315

you can never go wrong with Gloria's
https://www.gloriasrestaurants.com/location.phpbut if you want something relatively close to where you are staying, Mi Cocina is a great place

And the owner of the Mi Cocina chain is an S.M.U. supporter.

I go to Mi Cocina for one reason and one reason only: Mambo Taxi. 1 of those=12 pack.
MiCo's food is more mex-mex than Tex Mex.
I miss Don Pablo's. At least they have a couple in Indianapolis. The irony is, as I type this, I am sitting oh...15 minutes from the mexican border.
Pappacito's isnt bad, bad I always miss the exit just after the High Five.

Mico Rodriguez no longer owns Mi Cocina - he stepped down as CEO last summer and his partners bought him out. The new CEO came over from Cheddar's. Won't be suprised if quality starts to decline.
