    At the bar patiently waiting on my food

    My new favorite Mexican restaurant in Corpus Christi I love this place and it's in my new neighborhood. Yeah now that saying something because I love Mexican food. This place i can come any day of the week and love the food...

    Flan.

    We had a deluxe enchilada plate and a Cancun burrito plate with flank steak and flan for dessert. Also, had the happy hour Margaritas, one frozen and one with ice. Eh, so so. Kind of noisy due to the group next to us but overall nice and clean. Very nice server and quick with the food. Enjoy.

    I've come here a few times since my first great experience and they weren't anything like the first. Pleased with fast service and happy hour but food is bland, they never get my order right (I wanted sausage, received bacon). I thought it was tacky that I asked for a side of ranch dressing and they brought the the entire thing of it. Even more gross is they use the cheap Walmart brand.

    Boiled shrimp & avocado they tried to pass for ceviche.

    on my way home from work, I stopped in their drive thru to pick up dinner. 2 ceviche tostadas and a margarita was $25, but whatever, no big deal. I get home & the ceviche that should be cooked in citrus is clearly boiled shrimp they chopped up and threw some avocado on top. There was no lime flavor, no pic, nothing. If you don't have it made that day, just let the customer know. Don't try and dupe them with crummy food. Just be honest & keep loyal customers. I'm very disappointed & wont be back.

    Lana has her own little potato and egg taco.

    I've been inside pre-Covid. All was well. My daughter needed to bring breakfast for the STAAR test so they made me potato and egg tacos late at night when I couldn't get them anywhere. Very sweet people there. When there's a long line outside they come out to hand you the food and take payment so it's quicker than waiting. I like that . Don't forget their little SALSAS to go (green and red are both amazing) !

    This restaurant used to be one of our favorites. Over the past year or so, however, they have become one of our never again restaurants! Avoid this one at all costs! The picture included is of a taco salad I ordered approximately a week ago. Not only did I have to go back a second time because they forgot to include my salad in the order, there was a very large BUG in the guacamole!!

    Funny drive thru window!

    ORDER WRONG 4 of 5 TIMES. Today, I walked inside (tired of mistakes) spoke to red head female, and told her that the drive-thru has given me the wrong order the last 4 times. Egg, Avocado with 1 Crispy Bacon Strip. She said it's because the computer is not set up correctly for crispy bacon. She then asked what else I would like to order, I asked for unsweetened tea. She then brought me a sweet tea while I waited for the to-go order. When people don't care or listen carefully about getting your order correct, why spend money there?

    Front of a clean, but disappointing visit.

    Best chips I've ever had! Worth the visit. Great tortilla soup, too. Very comfortable, welcoming place.

    This place came HIGHLY recommended to us from my family. They said this is where you get authentic…read moreMexican cuisine. As a vegan, that made me excited because actual Mexican food usually has less cheese and can be made vegan. The business is quaint. There was a friendly hostess to welcome us in and our server was very hospitable. We ordered the chile relleno without cheese, zucchini in pasilla pepper sauce, and mole verde off the vegetarian options on the menu. We also enjoyed guacamole and chips. Our server was happy to accommodate our vegan modifications and it was really easy to communicate with him. The flavors are just WOW! Hands down the best guacamole of my life. The sauces are vibrant and rich. Everything tasted so fresh. And the prices for this quality of food cannot be beat. My husband and I literally licked sauce off the plates to make sure we did not miss one ounce of that authentic Mexican flavor. This place is top of our list of businesses to visit next time we are in town visiting family. We had an incredible experience and cannot wait to continue to explore the vegetarian menu options.

    After searching online for places with strong ratings (4.5 stars or higher), we decided to try…read moreGuajillos. Unfortunately, our experience didn't match the reviews. I'm not a professional food critic, but I do know seasoning, regional Mexican flavors, and what well‑prepared food should taste like -- and this just wasn't it for us. The restaurant didn't feel well-kept, and it appeared that only one server and one cook were working, plus we and another couple were the only ones there. We were served chips and salsa to start. The salsa, a taquera‑style orange sauce, was actually the best part of the meal. The chips, however, were extremely hard, not fresh, and definitely not warm. They looked house‑made, but whatever they were fried in made them almost inedible. I ordered the ribeye street tacos, and the steak was overcooked, had an odd taste, and wasn't enjoyable. I asked for extra cilantro and onions, which didn't happen, and the chimichurri they brought out was basically oil with a few seasonings floating in it. I almost complimented the Dr Pepper because it had a unique sweetness -- until I realized why. The red glass had visible staining on the inside. When I wiped the rim with my napkin, it came off dirty. They also don't offer straws, so whatever residue was in that glass is what you end up drinking. Between the food quality, the cleanliness concerns, and the overall condition of the restaurant, this was a no for us. How this place has earned such high mentions is honestly beyond me.

The most authentic flavor item in my lunch was the refried beans that look like poop at first sight. Rice was bland with cumin flavor and the mole was the most disappointing. Might as well have called them regular enchiladas, the flavor was basic taco mix with a tiny taste of mole. Just a thick cumin or comino paste. Enchiladas should be dripping with sauce in the inside. These were dry tortillas that were barely garnished with sauce on top. The chicken inside was very flavorul but dry. Then the 16 oz lemonade was 4$ and it was super sour ! I never leave reviews.

I've never had them served this way but was not disappointed. No horseradish served here, fyi. We also got queso fundido which was delicious- portion seemed small but made three full tacos. Draft beer was cold, Bloody Mary was outstanding. Their specialty cocktails looked amazing. I'd love to try but i was really itching for a bloody that day. Our waiter had to be called for everything, we didn't even get silverware or napkins. When we called we got bar napkins while every other guest had proper utensils. Overall, great experience, I'd go back and sit at the bar next time.
