We went for lunch May 22, 2026. All 4 ordered off lunch menu. Asked if onions were in dish. Waiter…read moresaid no. We asked if it could have onions included in burritos and chimichangas. When food showed up there came a bowl of onions and 2 bowls of sour cream at $3.95 each. All we asked was for was a few inside the entree. Had no reason to know why 2 bowls of sour cream came. A scoop was always on the plate before. Now we know why, to add on to the prices which were already really high. Our bill came to $95 for 4 lunch specials and an extra small bowl of cheese for the nacho chips and one $6.99 alcoholic drink, one coffee and 2 waters. The worst part is that she came with an ipad and said $95.00. NO itemization. NO written bill. We tried to calculate it in our head because it seemed very high. We accounted for about $77. with the outrageous charges for a few onions and the sour cream. I think she may have already added the tip in too. THIS IS A VERY SHADY PRACTICE. We all agreed we will not be back. BTW the food was good but their practices are shameful. Now we know why there are hardly any cars there when we go by.

I grew up in Bay City but I have lived in Houston for 30+ years. On this trip up here, we were…read morecraving some good Mexican food, which isn't easy to find (because we are spoiled). After a quick Yelp search, we found Gilly's and are glad we did! The restaurant is tucked away in an old business district...many of the neighboring businesses are closed. It has a parking area in the back but we just parked on the street out front. The staff was very friendly when we ordered at the counter. I ordered a wet burrito. (For those not from around here-it's basically a burrito with some sauce on top). It was very good and I couldn't finish it all. My husband and son both ordered quesadillas, which they liked. My husband said his steak quesadilla was a bit greasy but that was the only negative of our whole meal. We also shared some street corn fries, which we loved. It was street corn on top of fries. I loved the corn so much that I will just get a side of that on my next visit-but the fries were great too. The menu doesn't say it but they told me they would also make items with corn tortillas if a gluten free dish is needed. This may be a new favorite in Bay City! The location is a little out of the way but definitely worth finding!

Just what you would expect for a Saturday. We were seated promptly and our order was taken promptly. Then we waited, and waited, and waited... nearly 45 minutes for our food to come out. I mean come on. It's a Mexican restaurant that bills itself as a bit upscale. I ordered the ribeye with an add on of grilled shrimp and my wife ordered the steak fajita's. I have to admit. THAT Ribeye was absolutely fantastic! The grilled shrimp were also very good. Not $10 up charge good, but good. My wife's fajitas were just kind of ho hum. Nothing special whatsoever. In the end, with tip and zero alcoholic beverages our bill was just shy of a $100. For an "upscale" Mexican dinner. There are much better Mexican Food alternatives for that kind of money in Bay City. Don't get me wrong... the food was very good. Just not $100 good.

I really had high hopes for this experience but not only did they forget about my To-Go order but…read morethey also didnt read the ticket and prepared it on a plate then flipped it upside in the box once someone corrected the cook. Its ABSOLUTELY NOT worth the $22 that I paid nor the 20% tip that I gave. And to add insult to injury, the grilled peppers & onions are still on the entree after I requested NO Peppers or Onions. I would ask for a remake but Im afraid Id get something that I doesnt come on the menu. Good thing I tried it before I brought my hubby for a dinner date. I will not be promoting this restaurant to anyone in the near future. Y'all need to get your shit together for what you are charging.

So far I've tried their tamales, enchiladas, soft/puffy tacos, and the huge chimichanga. ALL are amazing, but what really sticks out to me is their enchilada sauce, it's green and almost a gravy texture but it's the best damn enchilada sauce I've ever EVER had! Also let's talk about this huge chimichanga, this thing is big, it's this fried tortilla stuffed with cheese and a huge amount of your choice of meat (chicken, pork, or beef) and then doused in their enchilada sauce and topped whatever toppings you like. I can eat a lot but by the time I got to the middle of this thing, I was so full I couldn't eat anything for the rest of the night. It fills you up big time. Anyways, obviously I could write a novel about this place, so go try it, it's awesome, I'm surprised this place hasn't put Taco Bell out of business in this town lol!

Two orders of taco and a taco salad at the table, both looked good, no complaints from the ones that ordered. Wife got the Chimi and said it was really good, daughter had the steak burrito, good but said the steak was a little dry. You get chips and salsa as soon as you sit down (as you should). The bad(s) only have bottled pop, they serve the Mexican version of coke and Fanta, which you have to purchase by the bottle. The syrup container you have to pour the salsa out of were a pain, but I just took the top off. Salsa it's self was good, some at the table didn't care for the added cilantro and thought that it wasn't sweet enough. I really hope this place makes it, it was good food at a reasonable price point for a sit down Mexican restaurant.
