    Barbados de res and carnitas

    Small place with big taste! We have been back this year for the 2023-2024 winter Texan season. Again, we were impressed and very happy with the taste, amount, selections, and service. This is not a fancy place but a great choice for beef, pork, goat or lamb with an array of sauces, plenty of tortillas and chips along with friendly service. They do a fantastic job! Try it. We are going again today!

    Great Tacos awesome service. Definitely worth a try. They have amazing hot sauces and chips to try them all. We went for lunch and had tacos de Birria and well as regular tacos. Highly recommend for authentic Southern mexican cooking.

    I returned again for an amazing solo early birthday lunch. This time I had the fantastic burrito…read moretrio and the AMAZING Mexican cornbread dessert! Just fantastic. I just love the vibe of this place. Come check out the menu and see for yourself!

    We were a party of 10 that made reservations for 6pm. We all showed up and the space was nice. Lots…read moreof TV's everywhere and it had music playing. Waiter came and took our orders for drinks and we all started making our selections for food. The chips and salsa they bring out complementary are so good. We did have to wait because they were making a fresh batch but it was worth the wait. We all had a round of drinks and then put in our order for food and it was about 7pm already. Our waiter then came up to the table and asked us if we would mind moving because they had a reservation at 8pm for the area that they chose to sit us in. We were kind of annoyed by that because we had called the day before to make our reservations. We said I guess thinking it was going to be close to 8 that they would move us. Nope about 5-10 mins passed and he came by and asked us if we would mind moving already before our food came out. Considering that again we had a reservation and they knew it was a large party they should have blocked out more than just 2 hrs for us to be there. We moved and the very least they could have done for us is offer a free dessert on the house for the table but they didn't. Now I ordered the flautas which were served on a bead of beans. The menu said shredded chicken but we were told they didn't have chicken they only had beef so I ordered it. The flautes were lacking flavor and probably could have been saved by adding salt to them and the beans but they don't have that at any of the table. I did try some of my friends chicharrones and those were really good. We left around 8:15-8:20 and there was no one that showed up where we were originally sitting... so we could have just stayed where they originally sat us. We left feeling very annoyed.

    7/10 Flautas de papa 9/10 avocado chilaquiles…read more 7/10 chorizo chilaquiles 5/10 beans A coworker who works in the area recommended this place. I'm a huge migas fan and never thought to try chilaquiles. This place did not disappoint. I added eggs, chorizo and avocado with half green and half red sauce. I was surprised to get each adding in an individual stack. I managed to get my egg yolk over the avocado and chorizo. The food was really good, just not what I expected. The flautas de papa were a great buy. Instead of using a corn or flour tortilla to mop up my plate, I was able to use the flauta and with the papa in it, they were like little sponges soaking up all the leftovers

    El Itacate has some of my favorite Salvadoran and Mexican food. From pupusas to chilaquiles, to…read moretacos, delicious options for breakfasts, lunch and dinner, they won't disappoint. My favorite is the Tacos Llorarás (you will cry taco) which features a handmade corn tortillas stuffed with a chile relleno made of jalapeño and cream cheese, plus a flavorful beef birria. Add your garnish and salsa of choice, and if the heat of the chile doesn't make you cry, you will eventually cry if you cannot return soon. It's that good! Drinks are either Jamaica (aguas frescas style). This location is right across the road from the Sam's Club on South Jackson Road. There is additional parking in the back. Family friendly.
