5 /5 Lynden Gwartney: Matito’s Tex-Mex in Flower Mound, Texas was a fantastic surprise and an absolute pleasure to visit. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and comfortable — the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy good conversation, and know you’re about to have a great meal. Everything about the experience felt thoughtfully done, from the service to the food to the drinks.
The shrimp tacos were outstanding. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful, and paired beautifully with fresh toppings that brought everything together without overpowering the dish. Every bite was balanced, satisfying, and clearly made with care. They were easily some of the best shrimp tacos I’ve had, and I would go back just for those alone.
One of the highlights of the evening was their peppermint espresso martini — a truly unique and memorable drink. It was incredibly well put together, smooth, festive, and perfectly balanced, with the peppermint adding a refreshing twist without being overwhelming. The bartender was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely warm, happy to talk through the drink and make recommendations. That level of expertise and hospitality made the entire experience even better.
Overall, Matito’s Tex-Mex delivers great food, creative cocktails, and a welcoming environment that makes you want to stay awhile. I’ll definitely be coming back and would gladly recommend it to anyone looking for excellent Tex-Mex and standout drinks in Flower Mound.
