    #2 Fajitas Poblanas
    Joe G.

    I live in San Antonio. I've eaten Mexican food my whole life. I love authentic Mexican like they do in Mexico and Tex-mex and David's is somewhere in the middle. Trust me when I say you need to go to David's. It's not in the hippest part of town and it's not an expensive looking place. But the food is better than any Mexican restaurant in Amarillo. And the waitstaff is great. They made sure the food was brought out quick, drinks were never empty and checked on me a couple of times, it's the type of service you expect at every restaurant but rarely get. I'll definitely be back

    Our first time in Amarillo, while searching Mexican food in the area David's Mexican restaurant came up. The restaurant truly did not disappoint. We stopped there on a Sunday afternoon & there were no parking spots available (a good sign) finally finding a spot we were surprised to be seated immediately. Complimentary chips & salsa arrived. Hubby ordered chicken enchiladas with red sauce instead of green that it normally comes with. (This is a personal choice as he doesn't normally like the green sauce) The dish was tasty but too spicy for him so he didn't finish his meal. The beans were delicious especially with the chips. I ordered just 1 beef street taco & a small side of queso. The taco was amazing (hubby sampled a bite & thought so too) just a perfect street taco & I regret not ordering 2. The queso was delicious & I even had enough to bring home for later. The atmosphere was your typical Mexican theme with some beautiful art on the walls. Music playing quietly in the background made table conversation easy. Everything was clean & well taken care of (both inside/outside sitting areas & both restrooms) Our server & other staff members were all courteous, knowledgeable & ready to assist us as needed. Choosing David's Mexican Restaurant really was a great delicious experience.

    David's Mexican Restaurant in Amarillo had just what I was looking for, some delicious chicken tortilla soup and queso. I wanted to get a margarita but passed this time. Friendly staff!

    Loved the atmosphere! The staff is so nice. Great customer service. Where to start! We were given 2 types of salsa. One was a warmed, tomato based, and one was a creamy citrus cilantro. Loved them both. But let's get to what brought me in today...their Ceviche Mixto. Beautiful, delicious, and a spiritual experience! It was worth the drive. Perfect balance of Pico, seafood, citrus, and sexy! The presentation was lovely. I may or may not have tried the manudo to. Sooo taking the rest of that home for breakfast!

    We are back! Husband ordered combo enchiladas (beef, chicken, cheese) and I had combo quesadillas (beef and chicken). Both were great and service is always fast and friendly.

There were two other tables with two people each that left shortly after my table of three arrived. Ordered our drinks and it took 57 minutes to get them. The bartender actually noticed that we had been sitting there without anything and he brought them over even though he was not our server. Our server did not understand English, and we kept having to use our phones to translate so we could communicate with her. We asked for appetizers that we never got, yet were on the bill. Our food came out 98 minutes after arriving, and again the bartender was the one that was serving us. The female server sat at an empty table on her telephone the entire time. When I asked for the bill, she didn't understand me and had to get a coworker to actually print out our bill. I tipped-out the bartender because he's the one that actually provided us our service. When I checked my credit card statement the next day she had given herself a $10 tip even though I had lined through it on the receipt. I immediately called the Amarillo Police Department to file police a eport for theft, and I did a fraud against my credit card with my bank. I explained to the Amarillo Police Department what happened, and sent them copies of my receipt and the receipt that I had left for her. The APD attempted to contact Braceros management. Every time the detective called he was told that the manager was not in the office and that they did not know when he would be in the office. At my insistence, the detective went to Braceros and asked for the manager and watched the manager walk away and had his employees say that he was not available. Management was absolutely refusing to speak to the police. When APD asked the employee about my waitress, because her name was on my receipt, the Braceros employee said oh I don't know who that is. So the detectives couldn't even talk to the waitress. They sent the detectives two more times attempting to talk to management and they refused to talk to them. Another 1000% sure management is in on this scam. I filed a complaint with the local Chamber of Commerce and come to find out, Braceros is known for this and there are banks in the Amarillo area that will not honor any charges on their credit or debit cards at Braceros restaurants. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!!!!!

My girlfriend's mom was especially excited to take me to El Tejaven while I was visiting. This dinner was a celebration of my girlfriend's sister playing in the top All-Region orchestra. It has nothing to do with the food itself, but I want to mention it because she did a great job performing and I think it deserves to be remembered here. It is the reason we went in the first place. It was a busy night at El Tejaven before we arrived. A group of 32 was just wrapping up dinner. Thirty two people. At that point, just cater, dawg. It took about 20 minutes after arrival to get seated, but it likely would have been much quicker if it were not for a group that size. Once we were seated, we were served chips and salsa. The salsa was spicier than I was prepared for, but it was good. The chips were excellent as well. Most people at the table ordered margaritas on the rocks, while I got a dressed Dos Equis on draft. From what I tasted, the margaritas were solid. For appetizers, we ordered the small queso and the small ceviche. The queso was standard but good. The ceviche, on the other hand, was exceptional. I could have eaten a large bowl by myself. I was pretty hungry, so I ordered the Orden de Tacos, which comes with four tacos on corn tortillas. I got all of them with al pastor. I also added a side of rice and beans, which normally comes with the three taco order but can be added on for the four tacos. The tacos were very good and exactly what you want from street style al pastor, especially with the cilantro and onions. It comes out to roughly four dollars per taco if you do the math. The rice and beans were both great and I ate all of it easily. The plate also came with a side of guacamole that had a nice kick, which I enjoyed. Living in Austin with family in San Antonio, it is easy to find good and authentic Mexican food. That does not always seem to be the case in Amarillo, so it is nice to know there is at least one spot in the city that feels authentic and not overly gringoified. My girlfriend's family knows ball.
