    Management needs to work on customer service - suggest with not insulting the customer thru suggesting they are making this up.

    Would have been 5 stars; however, the managers choice of words sent me into a rage. This is my 2nd yelp but it is warranted IMO. The food and waitress- exceptional. Atmosphere nice and quaint. Prices - good. What upset me was how the manager dealt with our issue - blaming us indirectly and essentially saying we are not telling the truth. My daughter bit into a plastic fabric tag while eating her tacos! The manager responded - that is impossible because the tag would have melted from the temperature while cooking the meat. Initially, we weren't even upset - because we enjoyed the experience and time with family - while having a nice meal. I didn't even want anything in return. I didn't ask - just informed them to be careful - to bring attention to quality control. Then the manager said - "it was impossible that my daughter bit into this plastic tag in her taco because it would have melted." What? So then I asked to speak to the owner - not sure it was the owner. The owner apologizes for the manager then goes into a detailed story of catching others placing a coin in their food to get a free meal- irrelevant IMO! Anyways - I am posting this in hopes that the owner does read this and can explain to his manager that not all customers are shady and some simply just want an apology - not insults or accusations! The food was great. The waitress was great. I'm just mad at how the manager reacted!

    First the food was pretty good. But not out of this world. And the service was great. The place is cute and clean. But I got a spicy margarita and it was tiny and awful. Was also bummed to see that they charged me for one tortilla which is pretty insulting when you have a $100 bill for dinner. I would be willing to come back but there are so many other places to try in the area I won't be coming back in a hurry.

    Conveniently located in the downtown Bryan area. This restaurant serves authentic Mexican food and the flavor is amazing. The decor and ambiance is perfect for a date night, birthday dinner, celebration or just for a casual dinner with friends. The service was professional and the waitress was very nice and attentive. The prices are also reasonable.

    Enchiladas

    We waited an hour for our table of 10 to be seated (keep in mind this was a Friday on a game day weekend). Nonetheless, we were able to walk around Bryan until we received a text that our table was ready. Everyone enjoyed the chips and queso. The salsa was a bit bland, but still fine to eat. None of us had complaints for any of our dishes and cocktails. The service was attentive and friendly. We would definitely go back.

    Ribs

    I had the ribs in green sauce. The sauce / gravy was delicious but the ribs could've been more meaty, especially given the price. The beans and rice were also very good but the portions were tiny. Server was nice but it took too long to get the food and it took too long to get the check.

    checked out casa monarca for the first time today for lunch! What a cute setup the restaurant has! The lunch menu is great- $12 for your entree plus drink is a really good deal these days. The chips are fluffy and enjoyable along with the salsa- the salsa isn't spicy at all but that's ok as i'm sure it caters to more people this way. I would enjoy it if there was a spicy salsa option too. The kids meal is a great deal at $5 for the cheese quesadilla. The service was pretty good- our lady was quick once we got her attention. We did have to remind her of things but it's ok, this place is new and i always extend grace to new places. Definitely recommend!

    Amazing food, amazing service. The green enchiladas were a little spicy but they were so good. I'm usually picky with my Mexican rice but this one was wonderful. My margarita was really good! The inside of the restaurant was so cute. Would definitely be back!

    Birria Quesadillas

    Every time I eat here, I think I've found my favorite dish. Then I try something new, and it becomes my new favorite! Today's winner: Birria Quesadillas. Absolutely scrumptious!

    I'm from out of town. I was looking for a nice restaurant for dinner after long workday. This had already great reviews and it was amazing. My waitress was super sweet. She recommended the video Tacos and they were authentic super flavorful and the consomé was so good too. The margarita was delicious. Will definitely be back if I'm ever back in town great ambience and the service is quick and the food was very fresh. Even the chips and salsa delicious.

    Love, love this place. Tacos were amazing, chips and salsa very flavorful and atmosphere was very relaxing. Was there on a Friday they were busy so we sat at the bar, our bartender Gabby was attentive and very friendly as well as all the other bartenders. Drinks were absolutely perfect. Cannot wait to go back to try the picadillo nachos.
