Whenever I come to visit my mother, Alex Taqueria is always the place I stop to get my lonches. My…read morefamily has been loyal customers for years, and I have even recommended them on my TikTok, which brought several friends and family members to their business. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was very disappointing. I ordered lonches, but I was given tacos instead. When I pointed out the mistake, the employee was rude and unwilling to correct the order, so I had to ask for a refund instead of having my food remade. The employee claimed that all phone orders are recorded. If that is the case, customers should be informed that calls are being recorded. The recording would also confirm that I ordered lonches and that my order was repeated back incorrectly. What upset me the most was the way both my son and I were treated. We were respectful throughout the entire interaction, but the employee spoke to us in a rude and unprofessional manner. This was my last visit to Alex Taqueria. I will be removing the TikTok recommendation I made and will no longer recommend or support the business. I hope Alex sees this review and addresses the customer service issues, because one negative employee can damage the reputation of an otherwise good business.

Casa Blanca is well known all around the valley. Winter Texans are very fond of it, stopping on their way to and from the valley. Some of them refer to it as the White House, which is the gringo translation for it's name. The building is old, but the food, service and value is excellent. Sometimes in converstion with "Winter Texan's" they find out you're from Raymondville, their first question is "do you know that "White House" restaurant?" They all think it is outstanding. Cash or check only. read more

Casa Blanca is a Valley landmark. Its "from scratch" kitchen and hometown atmosphere can't be beat. The Winter Texans that flock there between the months of Oct. through April contribute significantly to Casa Blanca's success. They have always been welcome and we will continue to frequent the restaurant, even during their busy season. read more

Turns out that the sign is over the kitchen, and the kitchen is a separate building from the dining area that doesn't have any signs over it. We sat ourselves and ordered drinks. Without ordering our food, the waitress brought us each a bowl of beans, and a bowl of rice. In addition to cold chips, sliced limes, two salsa bottles, and a bowl of pico de gallo. Then we ordered a pound of beef fajitas, a whole chicken, a baked potato topped with beef fajita, and two grilled onions. The chicken was delicious and juicy, the beef fajitas were surprisingly very soft and melt in your mouth, the potato was good, the beans were not seasoned (could use some bacon), the rice was good, and the grilled onion was cooked tender. The bad, were all salt issues: -The chips were cold and salt less. -The pico de gallo had little or no lime, and definitely NO SALT. -The 2 grilled onions we ordered were served cut up in bite size pieces, topped with seasoning salt, (very salty seasoning salt). I prefer you serve the whole onion, (not cut up), for me to add whatever I want, possibly just lime and a light sprinkle of salt.

Good tasting chicken. Ribs were not as meaty but their rice and beans were good. Take cash…read more Credit they service charge.

We…read morewaited over an hour for simple meals, and to make matters worse, people who arrived after us received their food before we did. There didn't seem to be any communication or urgency from the staff about the delay. When my food finally arrived, my bacon and egg taco was barely filled. For the price you're paying, you would expect a decent portion instead of feeling like ingredients were being rationed. On top of that, they were charging customers $1 for a cup of water, which honestly feels ridiculous considering water is a basic human necessity. Not to mention, their orange juice was 5$, NO REFILLS. Overall, the poor service, long wait time, small portions, and unnecessary extra charges made for a frustrating experience. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, and I wouldn't recommend this place unless they seriously improve their customer service and value.
