Good food prepared right. Enjoyed our chicken tacos and crispy beef tacos. Restaurant was busy which shows it's a go-to place.

We have been to Ernesto's several times and it has been decent. We decided to try on Sunday. We walked in and waited for a host to seat us. The girl finally came to the desk, never greeted us, grabbed menus and walked to a table so we assumed we were supposed to follow her so we did. Then we sat. Finally our waiter came and we put in our order. He was fine and friendly. Then he was nowhere. An older lady brought out our food warning us about the hot plates. How my plate was hot but my food was cold was a real mystery. Did we want a take home box? No thank you. It's sad this place is going downhill. They had plenty of people working, there were only 5 or so tables filled and yet they were acting like they were too busy to deal with us. The last woman was fine, everyone else was just a body standing around. The food was barely fine but with the prices being high, we won't be coming back. read more

Ernesto's Mexican Restaurant - Thin warm chips and salsa, top shelf margarita. - Mexican Near Me - Krugerville, Texas

We stopped by Ernesto's for an early Friday dinner (4pm). We are new to the area and It is close to our house. Upon arrival we were treated warmly and our drink order was taken right away. Our server was very nice and patient as we perused the menu to select our meals. Hubby went for the Shrimp & Avocado (shrimp cocktail) and I chose the chicken raquito appetizer with a side salad. As we waited for our meals to come, I asked if they had a spicier salsa to go with the chips and our server smiled and brought 2 more out. One was a roasted jalapeno salsa that was served hot - very delicious - and the other was a habanero salsa - which she said was too hot! I enjoyed both, the habanero one was the hottest. Hubby really enjoyed the roasted jalapeno one. As are meals came out, I noticed I did not get the appetizer version of the taquitos and instead it was a dinner plate with rice and beans. Hubby ended up taking those home. The shrimp & avocado had a lot of goodies in it and hubby really enjoyed it - he ate it all including drinking the last of the cocktail "sauce." My taquitos were pretty skinny, but he chicken inside was moist and tasty. All in all, service was great and the food was good. We'll probably order enchiladas or tacos next time. read more

Had not ever been to this location and wanted to try it, FIRST IMPRESSION: Open dining concept - no music and I love to go to Mexican restaurants and have the music in the background it really makes the atmosphere!! Service was not good - took forever to get drinks and chips and salsa.. HOWEVER when the chips and salsa arrived they were great! The salsa was especially good - a spicier warm salsa and a mild that was bursting with fresh flavor - neither were spicy in my opinion. Both were tasty! Waited forever for food and again I wasn't sure about it BUT surprisingly it was great!!! The Asada chimichanga was sooo good bursting with flavor! And the asada tacos were delicious and wonderful smoked flavor lots of meat and wonderful toppings on both asada taco plates that we ordered ! The rest of the people In our party did not complain at all they said the taquitos were fantastic and the combination burrito was also great!! So All that to say I wish the atmosphere was a bit better as the food was great!!! read more

This is not your typical small towns sad excuse for sub-par Tex-Mex. Since it's one of the few places near by we decided to give it a shot. My low expectations were surpassed, immensely. We were seated immediately on a Friday night. Our waiter was great! He kept our drinks filled, checked on us often and made sure we had everything we needed. Salsa was really good, not really spicy but good flavor. We also tried the queso Blanco, yum! Lots of menu options. I tried the choose your own 2 item option e/chicken enchiladas and a puffy taco and both were delicious. Will be back very soon. read more

So, I have heard good things about this place so I decided to stop. I have a rule, good Salsa and good Margaritas and you are good. Well, the Salsa was good as were the house Margaritas but the food was WAY salty. The refried beans were inedible and everything was just over salty. The Tequila prices by the shot were utterly ridiculous!! $40 for Clase Azul which is $140 a bottle cost?? $14 for Herradura Repo which is $35 a bottle cost? Really?? The portions were good, the staff was good but You can definitely do better. One and done here... read more

Got charged $13.05 for THREE shrimp when the menu says three ala cart baja tacos (that include shrimp and more) are $12.99. How the hell do you justify paying more for less food, let alone paying $4.35 for a single grilled shrimp? Are you kidding me? The menu doesn't even list a price for the ala cart shrimp, so the server should've been more upfront with the obviously improvised price. My family asked about the price politely, given the ridiculous bill, and the assistant manager thought it was appropriate to laugh. Well guess who's getting the last laugh now. Enjoy your one star. If you get this review removed again, I'll just make another account- and another, and another until the point sticks. read more

My husband and I just went here for dinner tonight and there was a long hair in my taco....disgusting....i told our server and he asked if i wanted him to take this meal off the ticket....and if i wanted anything else. By this time I lost my appetite. Is it not a health code to wear hairnets in commercial kitchens? read more

The white queso isn't very good and has a strange taste to it. The rice is really good though. The beef enchiladas were okay, they were edible. Chips were good too. Salsa has a very strong tomato flavor. read more

Ok I decided to try one last time . Today - Called and got a cell phone that said leave a message. For a take out Done ! Yesterday - Keep in mind they ask me what I wanted and as I'm telling guy my order he says hang on . After 10 min I hung up and went to Bottle cap . Always great service and good . read more

I walked in at 7pm on a Tuesday and the place was empty except for 2 tables with 4 customers. We ordered fajitas, tilapia, margaritas, while chips and salsa came served to the table. Chips were excellent thin and crispy not weighted in grease. Salsa was spicy hot but not a heavy aftertaste. Our entrees were generous portions and two fajita entrees filled up three of us. The huge tilapia serving was served with a large portion of broccoli. Only poor service hurt our experience. A sauce was forgotten to be delivered, no one asked if we needed anything or the quality of our food, and it took 15 minutes after the waitress brought our bill before we walked it to the register! read more

Went here for dinner last night and it was not good. When we walked in the placed smelled like dirty mop water. That should have been my first sign. Ordered the asada tacos and they arrived at my table cold. The corn tortillas were just falling apart and I didn't even finish one. The only thing I ate on that plate was the rice and avocado slices. My husband had the asada dinner and it was lack luster. Who is back there cooking?!! This is the third time we've gone and will be our last. The three stars are only because our waitress was a sweetheart. read more

Lunch today was great! The guacamole had a fresh taste. The chips were warm and not too salty. 2 types of salsa, one cold and tomatoes, the other warm and smoky. My chili relleno was very good. Service attentive and professional. The only reason I rated it less than 5 starts was because there was no fresh coffee. The interior was a little tired looking. read more

Ernesto's is your average Tex-Mex spot. It isn't anything to write home about but it is a very decent place to grab some food. They stay busy to the point of filling the parking lot because the food and drinks are good. The decor is bright and inviting and they have outdoor seating on the deck out the back. Service is is almost always good. Having eaten here dozens of times, I can only recall one or two times that the service was lacking and that was probably due to too few servers or the kitchen being slow. Overall, it is usually spot on. The food is good. Not great, but good. You will be satisfied with the large portions and the flavors are good. I have heard many people speak highly of the margaritas though I have never had one (don't drink). The salsa is rather lacking but you can ask for the roasted which makes amends for the "normal" salsa being so meh. Overall, I like Ernesto's and will continue to eat there as long as they are in town. Give them a shot if you are in the Aubrey or Pilot Point area. read more

Top notch Tex Mex food. The luncheon specials are huge and darn tasty. Brisket tacos were as good as I have had anywhere. Tender, full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Service was terrific as well. Highly recommended! read more

Really good food and drinks and Awesome service every time we go. The Aubrey location is our favorite!

I enjoy the shrimp enchiladas as my family has frequented this place throughout the last 10 years or so and is about the only thing I get on the menu, but I have to honestly say that I am fed up with this place and their ability to do to go orders. Their staff is unfriendly and has messed up our togo food multiple times. Last time even their was sugar in the charro beans which was disgusting. We have ordered here for birthdays and occasions throughout the pandemic and something is always wrong. The food is overpriced for what it is, so messing it up as bad as they do is unacceptable. The final straw occurred last time when they handed us our order only to call us after we had driven 20m away towards home to tell us they forgot half of the food. We had to turn around and get it, but no apology offered on their side whatsoever. No compensation either. By the time we got back the food was cold and unbelievably they still gave us the wrong meat in the chimichanga and no toppings. Not to mention they are not taking the pandemic seriously as half of the staff were not wearing masks, customers were not spaced out at all, and people were flooding the main halls towards entrance and bathrooms. Absolutely no regard for their at risk customers. We will not be going back to say the least. read more

The food is excellent but management and service SUCKS. It's too bad, really, because they've cornered the market In the area and they're letting the opportunity slip through their unqualified fingers. Welp, we did it again. I guess we're gluttons first punishment. We ordered curbside pick up and they got the order wrong on one meal and failed to include the tortillas for the other. Didn't notice until we got home and, at that point, couldn't be bothered to go back. We ate what we got and it was good-ish. I called the restaurant and they said they'd be happy to put another order in for us. Drive back up there and do it all over again? No thanks. We won't be back. Ever. read more

Definitely one of the better Mexican Restaurants around. Great staff. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Tasty Tex Mex and Mexican cuisine. Good service and portions. Can be busy on Friday-Saturday nights.... May need to wait a bit.
