Highly recommended. We had breakfast yesterday at Julio's…read more My hubby and I live in Waco, and met my SIL in Riesel. I didn't expect much, I mean, it was little Riesel. Well, I was wrong! It was delicious! We'll go back soon to try other dishes, but our meals were good-extraordinary. SIL had ground beef crispy taco, and she said it was very good. Hubby had grilled nopalitos with eggs, toast, and a side of pico de gallo (yummy). We all tried the nopalitos and they were delicious. My husband even asked the chef for the recipe. We'll be trying to make that soon. The migas were the star of the breakfast, IMO. Served with beans, crispy potatoes, bacon, and tortillas. Generous portion-everyone shared my plate, and there was plenty left for me. Very Fresh and tasty, and different from other Mexican restaurants. They cooked it with fresh sliced jalapeños, fresh tomatoes, and fresh onions. I gave most of the jalapeños to hubby, but the flavor remained just spicy enough for me. It was mixed with ranchero sauce and cheese, but neither was overbearing. It just synthesized into a delicious dish, somewhat reminiscent of chilaquiles mixed with eggs. The server and part owner was Julio's, and his parents were the chefs. The prices were reasonable. There were 6-7 four top tables, and a booth for 4. I think the 4 tops could seat 6 as well. Nice AC. Clean, even the bathroom. The only negative was No Coffee. Julio said they usually had it, but it wasn't working at the moment. I believe they stop serving breakfast at 11am, and we were there at 10:20. Perhaps they didn't realize there had been a time change. Anyway, no coffee for breakfast didn't sit well with SIL and hubby. I had a Diet Coke and was happy as a clam. It was definitely work the 20 drive from Waco! * Recommended: Check out the donut/bakery next door to Julio's. I wrote a review for Starlight Donuts. Not sure if that's the name, but the address is correct.

They were a little light on seasoning, but not dramatically so. The green tomatillo salsa was ok. I suspect it is probably Herdez brand, straight from the jar.

I was on a road trip and decided to stop to eat, I ordered 4 tacos (Carnitas, Carne Asada, Chorizo and Al Pastor), rice and chips & salsa. My entire order was phenomenal. The prices are more affordable than a fast food meal, and the flavors are unmatched if you like Mexican Food. The restaurant portion is currently closed due to lack staff since the pandemic, so the orders are takeout only, but the order does not take very long and the food is well worth it. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The enchiladas were very creamy, and I got carnitas for the meat, which were okay. The beans were alright, and the rice was not the type I would expect at a Mexican restaurant. The sauce was really good though. The carne asada was pretty solid. The portions were large, although I finished all of mine. My friend got the paloma, and it was very sour with an off putting taste. Service was friendly.
