    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute place...let's start there. Ambiance very quaint, inviting...not from this side of town but definitely looks like a favorite for many peeps on that side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service seemed a little slow, it took awhile to get our food and we only had two dishes one of which was a kids meal. Waiter was friendly and staff seemed friendly. They charged $6 for chips and salsa so just fyi...salsa was very good though, but come on...not $6 good. Kids meal was basic, $8 seemed like alot for what they got but was okay. The chorizo plate was very good, chorizo was tasty, beans were good. Bacon was nice and crisp as requested. Pretty basic breakfast. Served with tortillas....guys they weren't homemade which was a bummer, but they did their job. Coffee was good, and rootbeer float was good. This restaurant definitely has potential with some minor tweaks, but for $48 after tip, we most likely won't be returning. Just too many other places that don't charge for chips and salsa, have homemade tortillas (just my preference don't come after me), and get better quality food for your money.

    Let me tell y'all something. This here restaurant is absolutely amazing. The food was great. The service was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only downside was them being so far from where we stay in Houston, which still isn't too far. Maybe 30 minutes away

    Dropped in for a quick break, and to try the sausage gravy and biscuit. Also I appreciate the typical Texan diner decor and atmosphere: CW music and lots of western cashe. Biscuits were Ho-hum. Not very fluffy. Gravy was plentiful and strangely, not cooked with sausage but separately? This is weird.

    Large menú so many options including for kid's meals!!! I love thise

I thought the enchiladas were solid, though my wife felt like the queso was too thick and that the chips they served with the queso were a little stale. The service was A+, very attentive and hospitable, which counts for a lot in my book. They brought out a huge statue and bass drum for someone's birthday, which we loved and thought was hilarious. Also, the house marg was excellent and I definitely recommend. Overall, a cool vibe in the restaurant and we will definitely come back. We have some friends coming in from out of town and thought that it might be a good spot to introduce them to TexMex. If your go-to is Natalita's or something like that around The Woodlands, I would definitely encourage you to give this place a shot.

    I wish I wouldn't have been fooled by the high reviews for this place. It was a total waste of…read moremoney & a highly disappointing meal for date night. To be fair, it is my own fault because I tried El Mariachi a year or two ago and thought it was gross then. However, I know everywhere deserves a second chance so I thought I'd give it another try, especially when I saw it had such a high average rating. Let me first say, service is INCREDIBLE. Truly could not ask for better. The hostess was really sweet and she stayed kind even when I could tell she was overwhelmed by all the people. We had multiple servers come by to check on us at various times and do things for us and they were all great too. Absolutely 0 staff complaints. I ordered a watermelon margarita and couldn't drink it. The syrup was completely separated from the actual drink. I left it completely full and while I didn't want to complain, I was surprised that I wasn't asked if it was okay. Had I been asked, I would've told them. My husband thought his house margarita was good, but he did order it frozen and it was already half liquid by the time he got it. The food was not good. I took one bite of my beef taco and pushed it to the side. It was essentially Taco Bell meat. No shade to Taco Bell, but if I wanted that, I would've just gone to T Bell. It sure would've been a lot cheaper. My cheese enchiladas were also not good. I asked to have sour cream sauce on top & was charged $2 for it. I wasn't told I'd be charged extra and didn't see anywhere on the menu where it said that. Even so, $2 for sauce is crazy, but $2 for sauce when the enchilada ALREADY comes with sauce on top and all you had to do was replace it?? Wild. The queso was okay. Not amazing, not bad. It's the only thing I was able to eat. Not my personal experience, but two tables in our same section had issues with their food too and had to send it back. $85 for that is crazy. I'm glad so many seem to enjoy it, but El Mariachi will never see me again.

    I visited here after hearing they are supposed to be pretty good. I sat in the bar area since I…read morewas dining alone. This is an older building, but I'm not sure how long they have been here. In summary, I was not really impressed with my meal, but this is a super casual place and the prices are right. I started off with their house small frozen margarita. If you just need a basic one, this will do. It's nothing fancy. For comparison, their fresh margaritas start at $12 currently. Their salsa is served at room temp and you receive both a green and a red one. The red one was my fav. It was also the spicier of the two. I ordered their beef fajitas for one which is only $20. Let's see how it compared to my favorite in town which is much more expensive. Beef fajitas- these are your basic beef fajitas with store-bought tortillas. The sizzling skillet comes with 2 types of grilled onions, tomato, and grilled bell pepper slices. The beef is tender, I'll give them that, but the quality is low. You receive a lot of Pico de Gallo, not much guacamole, and an avg amount of rice and beans. The grilled onions were not grilled very long at all. I noticed a couple of the slices of beef were not cut against the grain, so they were a bit more chewy. Overall, service was average. They never asked me if I wanted a 2nd margarita until after I sat around for 10 mins and then even asked for the check. By then, its way too late to ask a customer if they want a 2nd drink, I guess that's how low key they are. At the end of the meal my glass of water was nearly empty too, but no server was to be found at the bar. In fact, they didn't really even man the bar most of the time with the 4 customers sitting there, including me.

Ordered friend shrimp and oysters with grits and fried okra. Loved the grits and fried okra but the fried shrimp seemed like it was frozen as the crust fell off when I picked it up. It was tasty and I ate it so it was Goode! Also, ordered an iced tea that was fresh and clean tasting so their equipment is well maintained. You can tell if any restaurants do not clean their dispensers as the tea tastes bitter or is milky looking. Why do I know this? You ask? Because my Dad was a coffee/tea delivery man and when I was a child he use to take me on Saturdays to run his route. We visited several Luby's Cafeteria's where he made sure the dispensers were clean and that they were making the tea properly. He showed me how he used the brushes to clean the tubes, dispenser handle and used special cleaning material on the inside. It makes a difference if your tea dispenser is clean... have I convinced you yet? Wow that was a rant! The bottom line is they have great iced tea!
