In other words -- starting with great potential. Has a hole-in-the-wall vibe (another good thing). We arrived around noon, so sat on the breakfast vs lunch fence. In the end, went breakfast. My chilaquiles (with an over-easy egg) were quite good, though I'd take a little more kick. My wife was less impressed with her Huevos Mexicana -- a little bland for her taste, but fine. Flour tortillas were made in-house, and very good (FYI -- on the thicker side of the spectrum). Chips and salsa: salsa is more traditional texture-wise -- I usually prefer chunkier, but this had a nice flavor. Chips were good as well. Good service. Our iced teas were above average -- tasted fresh. We'd definitely come back for breakfast. Would also like to try those chalupas...

It's a small eater in a strip mall. Location is very convenient. We stopped here before the Road to…read more26 soccer game, so they got very busy. We were lucky to find a table when we arrived, but there was only one gentleman working in the dining/cashier. I saw many customers coming in but eventually leaving as they were never greeted by anyone. The food took very long, like 35-40 minutes. However, the pupusas we had were so delicious! For the price, it was very filling and I really enjoyed them. It's a great spot, but I'd avoid on a big game day.

We finally gave this place a shot, and wow! I hadn't eaten pupusas in a while and totally forgot…read morehow good they are. My wife and I each got two, and I would have ordered more if my wallet wasn't screaming, "No more, please!" I'll definitely be coming back just for pupusas to go. Those things might be my new food obsession. The plates we got were okay but nothing amazing. My wife got three loaded chicken tacos, and I had the fried chicken with plantains. The chicken was a bit dry, but the plantains were really good. The waitress was super nice and explained some of the menu since it's mostly in Spanish. Without her, we would have been totally lost. Also, the menu is huge, so we took a while to decide. The place itself is small and crowded with tiny tables, but that is exactly the kind of vibe you get at an authentic Salvadoran restaurant. The chef (and owner?) checked on us a couple of times, and you could tell he really cared about us liking the place. That kind of attention is rare. It's a bit pricey, especially for lunch. So like I said earlier, your best bet is to get a bunch of pupusas at $3.49 each. Honestly, three or four of those would have been filling enough and cheaper than the big plates. Bottom line: Pupusas are the real stars here!

Fortunately I was greeted with an energetic HOLA! at the other end and upon recognizing my broken spanish, they immediately pivoted to english to take my order. I went with a fish taco, a carne asada gordita, and a pair of deshebrada tacos and a pair of pastor tacos. Upon arriving, they had my food ready quickly after I paid. Got back to my hotel and chowed down. The fish taco is absolutely awesome; really packed with intense flavors from the slaw, sauce, and the juiciness of the fish. The fish is pretty thick and worth the price. The gordita is delicious as well and still piping hot when I got back. As for the tacos, those are tasty as well although smaller than I imagined for the price being paid. I plan to hit up this truck again next time I'm in the College Station/Bryan area. I understand why this is a favorite amongst the locals here and for good reason.

Let's jump right in and get to it. To start, Coco Shrimp originated in the downtown DFW area by…read moreIsaac and Lauren Hadley along with some family members. They loved the food of Oahu, which I fully agree, is flavorful and fantastic. and I'm glad to see they're making their way south *come to Houston next?!* Location & Parking - 3.5* (5* if walking) I always like making a visiting to CS since my days living here. What I don't love is the level of change for the worse as real estate developers (in this case a PPP b/w Midway and the University) continue to bleed college kids, or their parents, for more money. So what am I ranting about as it pertains to Coco Shrimp? The parking sitch! This gem of a food spot is located in Century Square, which in itself is excellent for walking to if you're a student on campus or nearby resident. It's not so great for locals or anyone who has to drive here. The spaces are pay to park all around this area. Now, it is gratis for the first hour if you register in the ParkMobile app, and that is only good once per day. For Coco Shrimp that's plenty of time to dine and enjoy a quick catch up with friends, but no hanging around unless you want to take your chances with what are surely underpaid parking attendants just doing their jobs for the RE overlords. For reference, 1-2 hours it is $3.00, for 2-3 hours it is $4.00. Check the Century Square website, or the parking app, for the latest pricing. There is a solution to this, but I'll end this rant here. So off the bat, the whole pay to park just grinds my gears as an old timer who remembers a much different Aggieland. I'll go yell at a cloud now. Interior / Vibe - 5* Once you handle your parking situation it's all on the up from here. The interior layout, character, and vibe is solid. It definitely has the island life and chill vibe you get with little spots on the island. They have plenty of seating to meet a group of friends and they are quick to greet you. All of the interior was very clean and well kept. It shows the workers take pride and enjoy it here. Food - 5* The concept is simple, which is what makes it genius. They offer primarily rice and salad with your choice of shrimp options: spicy, sweet & spicy, butter garlic, lemon herb, or a sampler. Breaded/fried or grilled only for the options. I inhaled my entire meal, it was fantastic and I would easily eat here frequently if given the chance. The taste of Hawaiian island life is here and it's delicious. Service - 5* It's counter style ordering here and they do their best to locate you when your order is ready. They are quick to greet and they are really helpful in guiding you through the menu options. I love the sustainability aspect of providing a souvenir style cup that makes for a great cup at the house but also a discounted refill cup when you return. Really solid on their part. Cost / Pricing - 4.5* I say it all the time, this is subjective. I find it to be good value. Is it the same cost as a food truck in Hawaii that will get ya a meal for $5-10 bucks? No, is it a solid portion of fresh rice and salad, shrimp, and quality to bring it and satisfy a normal appetite? Absolutely. I think it's a fair balance. Overall - 4.5* I'm rounding up here since we can't score half ratings. I am tempted to knock it to a four star given the parking, but it's not entirely in their control aside from leasing elsewhere - I'm sure they wanted to be close to campus for strategic reason. As someone who worked in the industry, knows the work it takes day in and day out, I couldn't be happier for these folks. I'd love to meet them and have very real conversation about a Houston location. There are plenty of staples to visit in the BCS area, but this place is definitely one of my faves to visit in DFW or CS when looking for a quick, fresh bite. Come check it out!

Think the clear winner was the original Coco Shrimp -- the butter shrimp, spicy, and sweet/spicy were all good, but were maybe trying a little too hard.

Note that this is in Century Square, so you have to deal with that parking situation.
