Go around to the alley in the back and there is a welcoming parking lot, a huge sign and customers going in and out. * * * Chavelos is your basic Texas Tex-Mex restaurant. All the standards. Prepared the normal ways these things are prepared. As comforting as old bedroom slippers. You can find these dishes in thousands of places all over Texas. But you will do perfectly well having them here. * * * Two unusual notes besides the back is front issue. a) They have beautiful post oaks in the back-is-front back yard. On warm days, you can sit out there. I recommend it. b) They are massively generous with chips and dip. The initial bowl they give you is microscopic. But they are refilling that bowl constantly. Scoops of chips showed up at our table many many times during our meal. The chips are lovely. The salsa is no great shakes. Still, I ate 6,438 chips with dip. So the salsa can't have been that bad. * * * Altogether a pleasant place. The old standards are old standards for a reason.

The ambiance is what you'd expect--fluorescent lights, a few tables/booths, and a convenience store on the other side of the partition. The service was good. The cook/manager(/owner?) behind the counter was especially welcoming and made us feel that our business was appreciated. Food was good and well-priced. The menu had a lot of options, but I usually only choose standard taqueria fare at places like this. We got pastor gorditas and a plate of 6 mini tacos. Everything was good, but the tacos definitely stood out the most. They were great! The tacos de pierna were my favorite. Cash only.

As we walked in, we were greeted by who I assume is the owner and she let us know there was a free table next to her. Our waitress was super friendly and gave us chips and salsa shortly after being sat. The chips and salsa were excellent and I, as usual, ate too much. The salsa had a good spice and great flavor and the chips were very crunchy and crispy (like fritos but airier). I ordered a small menudo and chilaquiles with green salsa and both were really good. The menudo had a ton of flavor, good spices, and the stomach pieces were cooked perfectly; super tender and no, sometimes off putting, lingering offal smells. The chilaquiles were also great and the green salsa was mild and refreshing, with excellent side of potatos and beans. I could not finish my food as I thought the small menudo would be like a small cup not a whole bowl. I had also filled up on chips and salsa and our waitress refilled it so I had even more. All in all, this is an excellent little local spot for some bold flavors and fresh food. The menu is quite large and I'm curious to come back and have some other foods (like chicken fried steak).

We've been to this place a few times before, which is why this experience was really disappointing…read more When we visited recently, we noticed roaches crawling around in the dining area while we were there. It immediately made us uncomfortable and definitely affected the whole experience. We almost left, but since we were already there and didn't want to go somewhere else, we decided to stay and give it a chance. Unfortunately, after seeing that, it was hard to enjoy the food and the overall experience just wasn't good. Another thing that stood out is how dark and dim the restaurant is inside. It makes it hard to see much around you, which honestly made us wonder about the cleanliness after what we saw. We had been here multiple times before without noticing anything like this, so it was surprising and really disappointing this time.

With so little time to spare I decided to go to plan B and turn into the Bread Basket gas station because I remembered seeing good reviews on Taco Clem. I am not usually excited by "gas station food" but listen, that is NOT what this is! These are legit breakfast tacos with a variety of fillings. I tried the Buda Taco and the Clem Taco and they both knocked my socks off. One of them had carne guisada! They were both so delicious! Even the kids all enjoyed the different tacos they got and asked if we could go back a second time the same day! Chris took such good care of us. You can bet we are already looking for a good opportunity to go back. Say yes to the salsa!
