    Birria taco - mostly fat
    Marcus N.

    I'm shocked that they put so much fat in their birria - it's like they don't know how to make it? The salsa was mostly water, the beef steak was tough - must have been a bad cut of meat. The chicken (fajita?) tasted like air. The al pastor was really dry - no piña. The carne guisada was ok, but not much flavor in the gravy. Nothing is seasoned - so be forewarned. They also forgot our sides of guacamole and pico de gallo. We spent a lot of money for not much return. We only ate half of the tacos we got, just to taste, but have to doctor everything into new dishes to make it edible. Hope they get better at making food one day! There's not much in Luling, but I would suggest Lugo's if you are hungry until things change.

    Chorizo and egg

    My Mom's name is Asuzena, so when I saw this place I had to stop!!! The homemade tortillas were great, better than my Mom's and tacos filling from carne guisada to bacon, potato and egg were on point. The place was reasonably priced, glad to support small business!

    The place looks sketchy but the service and food was very good. The salsas were homemade not the normal green/red salsas they serve in most other restaurants. The food was good and served quickly and the waitress was very attentive and friendly.

    This place was amazing! You got to get past the smell of dumpster in the parking lot, but trust me, the reward inside won't disappoint.

    We were driving through and felt that they would provide a wonderful breakfast. My GF and I are…read moreseasoned at ordering the same Mexican plate wherever we go, mainly to compare but also because it's what we like and it's usually safe. I chose the Ala Mexicana which was absolutely wonderful and came with refried beans, soft potatoes, three tortillas, and choice of two sausage patties or two strips of bacon. Delicious. A bit overpriced since the same dish less sausage or bacon in Houston is between $3.50 and $4.50 My GF ordered the Migas which she loves wherever she orders it, but for some reason this one that they brought us seemed to have a coating or layer of nasty oil. It was gross and we sent it back. We told them the Ala Mexicana was awesome but the lady that was the owner was mean and nasty and said her food is never bad. She even said she would fire the cook but then became defensive. Thankfully the cashier calmed her down and got us a replacement but switched it to the Ala Mexicana. My GF was pleased with the new order. They are extremely busy with a lot of customers. I don't expect perfection but the owner need not be defensive. It happens and sometimes people don't complain or send things back. We rarely send food back. We order both dishes a lot so we know what to expect. I wasn't aware of the buffet, so if I were to go back, I would try the buffet. Whatever you do, don't order the Migas and stay away from their cheese.

    Stopped here on my way out of town and glad I did. We got tacos and they were very good. Homemade…read moreflour tortillas and great salsas. They had a green salsa that was warm and was told it was jalapeños which shocked me because it was so good. I recommend this place if you are ever in Luling!
