Cristina`s Firewheel in Garland

Tortillas were fresh, fajitas were just meh. I'm not a big green pepper fan so the veg mix for me was not a win. Other family members got enchiladas and burritos -- those looked good but didn't try them. Chips were very fresh and they served salsa frequently and individually, which I always prefer for germ-containment reasons.

excellent food and service! very friendly staff. nice location with a bar and plenty of room and parking. Its located in Firewheel mall area also. so its close to all the shops!

Great service.. delicious food!

My favorite Tex-Mex in the area. Very attentive staff. Warm chips and salsa but one of my favorite things is the warm salsa (careful it is very spicy) which you have to specially request but there is no charge. Dome of our go to items are beef fajita nachos, brisket tacos, and my boys favorite is Molcajete Tapatio (Jack cheese, peppers, mushrooms, and onion with red chili sauce with either carnita or bricket that is cooked in a mini cauldron and served with flour tortillas. Will definitely have to split with someone.

The food was excellent. The live music added to the ambiance. The staff very warm and friendly

Great atmosphere, great food, perfect and reasonable prices and great value for quantity of the food. Lovely outdoor patio, amazing alcoholic beverages, and great staff

Food is Tex Mex and quite good, staffing is very friendly and it's has a relaxing atompshere.

Our first time. Food was very good. Entire party was pleased. Generous portions.

i been there multiple times and enjoyed it very much, the hostess natalie was great and brightened up my day and experience there. she was amazing at her job and suggest she gets a raise for how great of a employee she is.

Chile relleno worh sour crema the best!

I am going on 3 years here in Texas and this is the first Mexican food that tastes like southern Californa Mexican food. What I've been searching for for 2 years! San Diego/TJ Mexico food.The food was deliciousI The salsa was tasty and not to hot or spicy. The flavor of the beans were perfection. I'll say it again, "The food was delicious!" The service was great! The waiter was polite and listenened to us. He even discribed the sauces on the food and asked if we like those sauces. Good job young man! That was helpful.I loved that the place was very clean! Especially at this time in 2020! It has a pleasant and colorful atmosphere, nice artwork on the walls. The music was low and pleasant. Christina's will be my favorite place to go for Mexican Food from now on in Texas!

We went for a co-workers birthday; got there around 11:40 and it wasn't busy. I got the lunch combo of tortilla soup, a cheese enchilada with chili con queso sauce and got some corn tortillas. The soup and enchilada were barely warm; there were two tortilla strips in my soup and they tasted stale. The corn tortillas were nice and warm but they tasted like rubber. Another co-worker got the same combo with the avocado soup and another got a bowl of avocado soup; both said theirs were barely warm as well. Very disappointed. It will be a while before I return, if I return.

Amazing Food!! Strong Margarita (Sangria Swirl)!!. Oscar our server was super friendly, very attentive and probably one of the best servers I've had in awhile. Will definitely be making this location a regular spot for Mexican food.

Great food and waitstaff. The Skinny Margarita was tasty.

Very good enchiladas and chimichangas, salsa great service

Excellent food and service the queso fundido is delicious😋✨

Usually awesome...was very busy& I understand that...as a former waitress. I was not greeted for 9 minutes. Seen my server 2 times. Asked for LIMES got a lemon. Enchiladas were mostly tortilla and hardly any cheese. Hopefully next time will be better.

Have not been here for a while. Decided to try it again and glad we did. The food and service were great. Salsa has always been good and still is. Glad we went back.

2nd visit, in two days. Enjoyed food so much had to return. Salsa is excellent.

Fantastic Mexican restaurant. Great food, amazing margaritas and a very friendly and generous staff! Highly recommended!

I go here with my family every time I'm in town. Great atmosphere and can't believe the food- really wish we had one in Austin. I usually get a taco plate, nothing fancy, but large portions and unbeatable fajitas

The food was just okay and the margaritas were extremely weak!

We stopped here for a quick bite between shopping. We were greeted promptly and sat immediately. Our waiter, Alejandro, was wonderful. He served ya quickly, our food was delicious and we were in and out in less than 30 minutes. A manager came by to make sure someone had been with us and every employee we encountered was friendly. Great place for relaxing with family and friends and we can’t wait to go back and visit!

This is our go-to Mexican restaurant! Service is great, very quick and my order has always been accurate. This is noteworthy because I always customize my order. Additionally, this place has amazing veggie/vegetarian options. Their veggie blend is carrots, squash, peppers and onions, and i think something else, but it actually is filling and diverse as opposed to most places which basically just have toppings. I usually go for the veggie tacos, but the veggie quesadillas are very good as well. I also tried brunch their recently and it was SO GOOD!!

We ate lunch here on the way back from the Dr. The food & service was great!

Wonderful service. Food was spectacular and delicious. Celebrated a birthday and they came out with ice cream and sang Happy birthday. Manager walked around greeting people which made us feel very welcomed. Also bathroom was super clean, I personally love the sink it looks like the inside of a clam shell and was so pretty! But overall great experience here and highly recommend.

Good food and ok cocktails

I eat a lot of Mexican food at different Mexican food restaurants and this one here is that about average.I had their lunch beef fajitas and it was good. The waiting staff is very friendly and helpful. I would recommend it.

Very good experience here! The last time i went to a Christina's (In 2005), i wasn't impressed. However we decided to try it out again. Such a good choice! The food was delicious and service was great! I would recommend trying this place if you haven't. The chips and salsa are a must! Chimichangas were tasty and so are the strawberry swirl margaritas.

I'm not a person, to write reviews but I wish I can give a 0 star. I called and ordered some food for work function. The guy apparently couldn't understand my order and instead of asking to confirm my order, he put in whatever he wanted, which was nowhere near what I ordered. Picked up the $50 worth of food and it wasn't enough because it wasn't what I ordered. I have ordered this same order before so I'm very familiar with what I ordered. I called to complain and the store manager asked my to pay for another order for something they got wrong.

My friend and i cane in yesterday. The entire time we felt like we were being rushed. The door said they didnt close til 9 but we were told the kitchen was closing so we quickly ordered. Good came out fast. Had two margaritas each. They were $10.50 but had NO alcohol in them. They even stacked the chairs at the tables around us. Extremely rude. Was not worth the $70 we spent. Will not be returning.

Good queso, chips, salsa and fish tacos. I've been here twice recently and both times it was moderately busy but there was a smiling hostess waiting, no wait to be seated, prompt friendly service, along with hot fresh food.

The service was extremely fast but I thought the food was a bit bland. The peach margarita was the best!!!

Good quality texmex food. Margaritas, house frozen, were very good.Flan was not as light and fluffy as it should have been, very very dense. Not enough caramel and definitely not enough caramel sauce.Carnitas tacos were okay; have had much better, but meat was seasoned well and taste was still good.Fajitas were good, nothing special though.Restaurant clean and maintained. Chairs were a little low compared to our table height and seat pads long gone.

Great waitstaff. Hazel G. was amazing.

I am a regular at Christina’s and part of my visit that I enjoy everytime is seeing your hostess Natalie. She is the kindest person I’ve ever met and really does your restaurant justice. She is there almost every day and i definitely think she deserves a raise

Good location, good employees and good service. Fair pricing for average food. What I like most is the location, atmosphere and cheap drinks. The waitstaff are professional and always dressed nicely. The female staff wear actual nice long black flare leg pants (never leggings) and the manger even wears high heels with her pants. A nice touch this day in age where sloppy and ultra casual has become the norm.

Christina's is located in the Firewheel shopping center. Make sure to sign up for points at the front desk every time you sine there. The food and service is always good and if you sign up for text or email rewards then you get coupons. They usually have specials based on holidays or special events. Their salsa is very good and they sometimes have after dinner shots for free.

Yasss... They brought back the flaming shrimp brochette. Service is always good here....Standard Tex-Mex...done well. Nothing over the top(except flaming shrimp) but everything is good.Good margaritas, beer-ritas....Good prices... Nothing will break your pocketbook.Stop and get your Tex-Mex addiction satisfied.

The salsa and chips were fantastic. I had tacos and they were delicious.

Great food and service. Enjoyed their chips and salsa and chicken tortilla soup today.

Fantastic!

Food was very good and good quantity for the price. Atmosphere was nice. Ran out of water and tea a cou5of times and had to ask someone other than my server once for more. Which happens everywhere so not a huge deal. Otherwise, would have been 5 stars

We went there this last Wednesday and the food was really good. We've been there a handful of times and the food is always good and so is the service. This location is much better than the one in Murphy, not sure why, but the flavor and quality is much better at this location.

Not good not bad completely average food.The flavor of everything is average at best. No spice no real Mexican flavor just sort of bland.There are much better options for Mexican food in the area. Only come here if you don’t feel like leaving the mall area.

Had Christina's delivered. The food was delicious and well packaged. We loved the margaritas to go! Appreciate anything bright in this difficult time. We will be ordering again. Thank you!

Great food for the price

Always enjoy eating at Christina's, really like the food.

Went here for my birthday and the service was great. The chips are okay, but not my favorite type of chip. Seemed a bit stale so it could have just been an off day. The fajitas were not good though. The meat was very tough and not in any way tender. I could not eat it on a tortilla because I would have to gnaw on it for 10 seconds to cut through the meat while holding up the wrap to my mouth. So I was left with eating them with a fork and knife.

My first time here. What a great place. Love the Mexican music.the food was excelent!!! Servicer not real attentive..updated my review! Went back the service was awesome!! Of course the food was excellent as well!
