    Rooster in parking lot

    Cute little restaurant with a statue of a huge rooster in the parking lot. Friendly service. The chips and salsa were good. I had the cheese enchiladas, and it comes with beans and rice. My husband had the carne asada, and it came with charro beans, guacamole, pico, and rice. We both had the homemade corn tortillas. Food was delicious.

    Awesome service, great food!! They're very generous with portions and you won't leave feeling hungry. Everything here is good... the chilaquiles verdes, Taquitos Mexicanos, and their tacos. Highly recommend!! Even the salsa rocks! Best kept secret on this side of town.

    Flautas de Gallo

    We ordered 17 and 4. Mexican plate and flautas de pallo. We used the drive through and it was a bit slow. The food was amazing and we highly recommended you give them a try.

    Beans and chorizo taco

    Huge portions see pictures below. All for 16.00 no drinks ..we needed water after our time at the beach. Didnt post pics of all tacos ordered but 5 total with the plate. Waitress was so kind and service was quick. Don t let the broken windows and lack of huevos Rancho on the menu scare you. Definitely a solid spot for a good large meal!

    Any other of the Mexican places in the bluff is better than this trash. Whataburger has better tacos. The Homeless that live and sleep in the parking lot will look through your car while you eat and the manager won't care.

    We had a group of 10, we showed up and the parking lot was empty. We were nervous that it would not be very good, but it was really good authentic Mexican food. Everyone in our group nearly cleared our plates. This place is definitely great! Worth a try and super cheap! $54 bucks for 5 grown people! The only thing was the service was a tad slow and we were the only ones in there a party of 10.

    The food was great and the service was too. The only knock on this place is that they have only bathroom. I would visit this place again.

    This place came HIGHLY recommended to us from my family. They said this is where you get authentic…read moreMexican cuisine. As a vegan, that made me excited because actual Mexican food usually has less cheese and can be made vegan. The business is quaint. There was a friendly hostess to welcome us in and our server was very hospitable. We ordered the chile relleno without cheese, zucchini in pasilla pepper sauce, and mole verde off the vegetarian options on the menu. We also enjoyed guacamole and chips. Our server was happy to accommodate our vegan modifications and it was really easy to communicate with him. The flavors are just WOW! Hands down the best guacamole of my life. The sauces are vibrant and rich. Everything tasted so fresh. And the prices for this quality of food cannot be beat. My husband and I literally licked sauce off the plates to make sure we did not miss one ounce of that authentic Mexican flavor. This place is top of our list of businesses to visit next time we are in town visiting family. We had an incredible experience and cannot wait to continue to explore the vegetarian menu options.

    After searching online for places with strong ratings (4.5 stars or higher), we decided to try…read moreGuajillos. Unfortunately, our experience didn't match the reviews. I'm not a professional food critic, but I do know seasoning, regional Mexican flavors, and what well‑prepared food should taste like -- and this just wasn't it for us. The restaurant didn't feel well-kept, and it appeared that only one server and one cook were working, plus we and another couple were the only ones there. We were served chips and salsa to start. The salsa, a taquera‑style orange sauce, was actually the best part of the meal. The chips, however, were extremely hard, not fresh, and definitely not warm. They looked house‑made, but whatever they were fried in made them almost inedible. I ordered the ribeye street tacos, and the steak was overcooked, had an odd taste, and wasn't enjoyable. I asked for extra cilantro and onions, which didn't happen, and the chimichurri they brought out was basically oil with a few seasonings floating in it. I almost complimented the Dr Pepper because it had a unique sweetness -- until I realized why. The red glass had visible staining on the inside. When I wiped the rim with my napkin, it came off dirty. They also don't offer straws, so whatever residue was in that glass is what you end up drinking. Between the food quality, the cleanliness concerns, and the overall condition of the restaurant, this was a no for us. How this place has earned such high mentions is honestly beyond me.

The most authentic flavor item in my lunch was the refried beans that look like poop at first sight. Rice was bland with cumin flavor and the mole was the most disappointing. Might as well have called them regular enchiladas, the flavor was basic taco mix with a tiny taste of mole. Just a thick cumin or comino paste. Enchiladas should be dripping with sauce in the inside. These were dry tortillas that were barely garnished with sauce on top. The chicken inside was very flavorul but dry. Then the 16 oz lemonade was 4$ and it was super sour ! I never leave reviews. But this was truly disappointing.

I've never had them served this way but was not disappointed. No horseradish served here, fyi. We also got queso fundido which was delicious- portion seemed small but made three full tacos. Draft beer was cold, Bloody Mary was outstanding. Their specialty cocktails looked amazing. I'd love to try but i was really itching for a bloody that day. Our waiter had to be called for everything, we didn't even get silverware or napkins. When we called we got bar napkins while every other guest had proper utensils. Overall, great experience, I'd go back and sit at the bar next time.
