OK, we're big-time Tex-Mex food fans, but we find it quite difficult to find high-quality Tex-Mex or even Mexican restaurants in the US south outside of Texas. This place is a game changer. When we stopped here, we were prepared to be disappointed in issuing two or three star rating at the most. Every single item we ordered was tasty and delectable. Our entrées were Carne Asada; and, Shrimp of the Devil (Camerones el Diablo). Both were fresh, tasty, and delicious. The shrimp were prepared in a special hot sauce, which was in an of itself, delectable (but only if you have a big glass of water to drink). My wife liked it so much she just wanted to taste the sauce! We weren't going to have dessert, but after watching several dessert pass by via the waitress to other tables, we decided order Flan and a mixture of a sopsvilla with fried ice cream. Ugh! Spectacular! If you're in the Tuscaloosa area, go and enjoy. It's worth it. Prices are reasonable. There's a happy hour for drinks. We had two margaritas each: very very good. This restaurant is located directly across the street from brand new Holiday Inn in Tuscaloosa at Cottondale, AL 35453.

This one used to be a Pizza Hut!…read more It's a simple and traditional Mexican restaurant atmosphere, with tables, booths, and a full bar w/ bar seating. Even with a few staff, they're very efficient. My waitress was sweet and prompt. I was hungry & craving good Mexican food and this spot did just that. Also, noticed yelp & google are lacking so... here ya go! I ordered the Pepe Special, 1 Carne Asada street taco, and 1 chicken flauta. Everything was hot, fresh, and tasty! I wasn't a big fan of their corn tortilla for the street taco but, that's a preference. All this for less than $20!!!! Take a moment, and stop in for lunch or dinner. You won't be disappointed.

Unbelievable marinade, beans, rice, some fresh and hot tortillas. It's my favorite lunch. Lengua tacos are also really amazing and don't forget to end it off with some esquites, corn with cheese, lime, and chili powder. It's the most delightful dessert. Don't ever change, Antojitos.

It came with fresh tasting pinto beans, rice and the chicken has been mildly spicy in both cases, but very delicious. This visit the sauce was a type of verde sauce. My waiter was super nice and was very helpful. He explained in great detail the specials of what type of sauce they had on them. This is probably one of the most authentic Mexican restaurants I've ever visited. Don't let the small restaurant size and casual dining atmosphere dissuade you from trying this little gem. It is well worth the visit.

I initially went on the first day…read morethat they open but because I was craving a margarita and they didn't have their liquor license yet I ended up going across the street. So this has been on my list and I finally came here on a Thursday evening with my son. It's at the end of a shopping center where a Walmart is. We got there about 5:30 PM. It was not busy at all. We were promptly greeted by a hostess that sat us in a booth. We started off with the chips and salsa, but on the menu it does say after two baskets they will charge you for the chips and salsa. We only had one. The chip could've been a little thinner. It's rude to find a raspberry margarita so I wanted to get one unfortunately they didn't have any frozen ones. They were just on the rocks. I was pretty shocked when I looked at the receipt and saw that it was $17 for a Margarita and it definitely wasn't worth that much. It had kind of a weird taste to it. We did get the cheese dip and it was very delicious. I decided to try the Mexican lasagna, which was so delicious. I got it with the beef and it was layers of ground beef, pico beans, and possibly some rice too. It was a good portion and I ended up bringing the other half home. My son ended up getting nachos with shrimp, chicken and steak and he really enjoyed it and finished his whole plate. I will definitely be back sooner than later because I love some good Mexican food, but I will probably end up getting just a soda next time. Fernando was our waiter and he was very attentive. I will say the restaurant in the bathrooms were clean. There's only one bathroom each for men and women. I would think it a restaurant this big they would have more stalls.

Service is always great - led by manager Alonzo, the staff go the extra mile so you can enjoy your meal. The restaurant is in the old Twix and Between restaurants, but the location has been redone in bright colors, flowers, greenery and Mexican pottery. Just a word of caution to limit the add-ons. Adding extra jalapeños, extra large tortillas will add to the bill. Altogether, this is where we go when we want a good meal without traveling a long ways.

So that's exactly what I did--hauled myself over to Pastor's Kitchen to start the day off right (or at least try to). We sat down for a quick bite before heading out to conquer the world--or at least our to-do lists. I went with the ol' faithful: scrambled eggs and bacon. My son decided to get fancy with the breakfast tacos. Now, I've got to say, my bacon came out a little more crispy than Christian, bless its heart. The scrambled eggs were... well, let's just say I've had the same thing at about a dozen other spots in town. Nothing to write home about, but it filled the tank. Normally, Pastor's hits the mark--they're known for good grub and even better vibes. The place was spotless, the staff was friendly as always, and the Christian music humming in the background gave it that easy-going, Sunday-morning feel even on a weekday. So while today's breakfast wasn't exactly divine intervention, the company made up for it. After all, breakfast with your boy is always time well spent--even if the bacon's a little too close to burnt offering status.
