I normally don't leave reviews, and especially not bad ones, this place was the worst place i've eaten in a very long time. We're in town for vacation like most others, and decided to swing by for lunch for something hopefully cheap. There were 4 of us, and the bill came out to $120 with no alcohol and 2 people splitting something. Our server seemed to not know what he was doing. We ordered just 3 corn and 3 flour tortillas, and he came back with 3 of each, containing 12 total tortillas we had to pay for. That wasn't a big deal, nor my biggest gripe. The queso had beef in it, and was simply not good. The queso was mostly unseasoned ground beef with a splash of queso. After we ordered, my dad ordered A torta with pickled jalapeño. The sever then brings out 3 whole grilled jalapeños a minute, and after the rest of our food comes out. all of our food was good enough, but they never brought out the torta? After my dad asked, they argued that he just ordered the 3 jalepenos . One more small gripe is that I ordered grilled shrimp tacos, and they gave me fried ones, no biggie, not something that id normally mention, I just felt I had to add. The atmosphere of the restaurant is just like a normal mediocre mexican joint, no gripes. Other than the bathrooms are a wee bit ran down. Anyway, tldr; if you're in the area,and want good mexican food, go to tia juanita's, or if you want cheap really good food, go to the nauti beaver across the street. I'd recommend to stay away. read more

Soon as we walked in no proper greetings just "Have a seat where you want". They barely have many drink options. Our server was Paulina which rarely came around to us. We ordered two of the Lupita plates, and when the food came out they brought the pork chops when none was ordered. Paulina came back and argued that we ordered the pork chops when we didn't. Food tasted very weirdly. Although this is a Mexican restaurant the atmosphere seemed racist as we were the only brown table in the restaurant we were checked up the least compared to others. Definitely do not recommend this was my worst restaurant experience. read more

Stopped for breakfast. Vallery was our server and made great suggestions. The Barbacoa tacos were fatty and delicious! Topped with their it with their fresh salsa and I am hooked. we will be back asap! read more

Spoiled milk to start. Then I ordered the ribeye and eggs for breakfast... my meat was black. Absolutely spoiled and disgusting and they still brought it to my table. This was also our second lousy trip here.. do not r read more

The breakfast was the real standout--fresh, flavorful, and cooked exactly right. Everything came out hot and tasted homemade, the way a proper breakfast should. On top of that, the portions were generous and the prices were more than fair. You definitely get great value for your money here. Linda and Daniel made the experience even better. They were friendly, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly without hovering. Service like that, paired with food this good, is why we'll absolutely be coming back. read more

Had breakfast here, food was cold. Biscuits were leftover that they heated on the grill, hash browns were the same. Almost $50 for two people to eat old food. Serve fresh people! read more

absolutely disappointed. first service disappointed. they are racist if your brown your served last and they forget your food and try to charge you for food they didnt serve. they all kind of look like druggies read more

Our order was all wrong couldn't get it right! I don't speak Spanish and the person who took our order didn't speak English that well order a baked potato loaded got the baked potato. Nothing was on it!!! Ugh dry potato read more

Gs is a friendly local, family owned restaurant. We come here enough that they know you when you come in. They aren't always fast but they are usually good. I highly recommend the abuelitoes plate (street tacos), they are probably the best thing on the menu. Fajita Beef on corn. read more

Eclectic family style dive breakfast joint. Great Tex-Mex bfast options. Cute cafe with bar. Clean. Friendly. Good service. Will recommend and go again. read more

Came here for dinner because most other places on the island were closed. So points to them for being open. We were seated immediately (not really anyone else there) and our service was good. Our waitress was a youngish woman who didn't really know the beers they served, but not a big deal (maybe she's not 21?). THEY DONT HAVE MARGARITAS, which is a big miss for a restaurant marketing themselves as a Mexican restaurant imo. The food was edible but nothing I'd make an effort to come back for. It's definitely not traditional Mexican and not really even Tex mex (for example, my chile relleno was topped with nacho cheese). Atmosphere is super low key, which I appreciated since we had a group of young children. I don't think we would come back in future unless again everything on the island is closed (which is a real possibility). Nice people, but otherwise pretty meh. read more

Good service. We got there just as breakfast was ending so we went with lunch. Enchiladas were good. Had the nachos as well. Po boy fish sandwich was made with frozen fish. The fries were not cooked all the way. Overall it was "Meh" read more

Came to eat here while on vacation in Crystal Beach. We had a party of 8 and we were able to get seated right away. Our waitress was very nice and kept our drinks topped off. I ordered the fajitas and believe me when I tell you, that these were the best fajitas I have ever had!! So flavorful and cooked just right. My husband ordered the street tacos, my son ordered chicken nuggets and fries, and my daughter got the kids cheese enchilada. They were all satisfied with their food. My daughter ate all of her food, and my son even added that the chicken nuggets tasted like McDonald's so he was happy. If I ever come back to Crystal Beach I will definitely eat here again. read more

AWFUL! Absolutely worst place here! Our food was cold, gross, flies everywhere and my French toast was burnt and the owner said they would not remake it but they would take it off the bill. We didn't ask for a discount I just wanted French toast not badly burnt and they refused to make a fresh one. Very rude and disrespectful owner. Our waiter was great but the food was disgusting! read more

G’s Molcajete - Nasty gross burrito - Tex-Mex Near Me - Crystal Beach, Texas

asked for a dr pepper and some menudo and then the waiter took 30 minutes to tell me they don't have any of either so i had to drink their shitty tea and reorder. Ordered a burrito with no bacon and it comes out 15 minutes after everybody else's at the table WITH bacon, i tell them to remake it and the waiter brings out the same burrito and says with an attitude "no bacon" well guess what? THERE WAS STILL BACON. At least they took it off the bill. It really sucks because we come here every year and this was not only the worst experience we've had here but the worst i've EVER had period. read more

My wife and I are on vacation in Galveston and stopped at gs molcajete to eat--our server was Linda--Linda made sure we were taken care and constantly checked on us--VERY IMPRESSED---we will definitely come back---give that women a raise--she deserved it read more

Food was excellent! Service was excellent. Daniel was the best waiter! He took great care of us. We will definitely be back soon.

Absolutely delicious! Had a fajita burrito and it tasted homemade my burrito was almost gone before I realized I could get a picture. 10/10 ‍ read more

Nicer inside than it looked from the outside. Bright and clean, even the restroom, and the staff was friendly. We had the Veggie Breakfast Burrito and a Barbacoa Burrito. Nice thin tortillas, small red potatoes and plenty of cilantro on the side. Refried beans did not seem homemade but were ok. Salsa was fresh but not spicy enough for our liking. Overall, good taste and value. read more

The food was perfect. Not busy but our waiter was pleasant and did a good job. His name is Payton

Ordered the all meat burrito that was mainly potatoes very dry no cheese. Also ordered DP tasted like water this we waited 45 minutes needless to say we do not recommend. read more

Attempted to make a to-go order. Walked in and only 4 customers there. We asked to place an order but we're told she needed to check with "him", since "he's in a bad mood today". She checked with "him", who came out of the kitchen, looked at us and said, "no" and went back in. The lady at the front said we were welcome to sit down and order. They basically refused to serve us if not dining in. They didn't want our money. Because the guy was in a bad mood read more

Arguably the worst "Mexican" food I have ever had in my life. The beans literally come with vienna sausage and lunch meat cut up in them. Take a look at the attached photo of what we can only guess must be a cheese enchilada with some pieces of cut up ham? lunch meat on top covered in "cheese from a paint can." Truly you would have to work at making food so bad. read more

G’s Molcajete - Parradilla - Tex-Mex Near Me - Crystal Beach, Texas

This is a third attempt at eating at this restaurant so this is 'make or break's time. There's a sign on the door that says masks required, however everyone is ignoring that sign. They do have several tables marked as closed for social distancing but the tables that are open for social distancing have noth been cleaned, so it's like they're intentionally limiting seating at this point. I see four tables that are available to be sat, but every one of them is dirty and it does not appear any attempts have been made to bus them either. Our food came out quickly and was really good. My husband ordered an omelette and I ordered the green chilaquiles. No complaints at all about the food or service. The prices are reasonable and I will be back, at least for breakfast. The women's restroom was in dire need of attention, DIRE. It sounds like I got lucky and got the only toilet that's flushed. so one of the things that is a negative about this place is the last time we were here about 10:30 I guess maybe even a little bit later , but they said it would be like a 45 minute wait while they flipped the grill from breakfast to lunch. That was why my first review was not good. We got here early today and again got lucky. I'm going to keep my review at 3 Stars because I want to make sure today's visit wasn't a fluke read more

Service staff is always in a bad mood. There's one older lady that think she's doing you a favor by taking your order. The food is okay, but by the looks of the dining area I would hate to see the kitchen. Half the lights don't work and the ones that do have bugs all in them. Place just doesn't look like it's been kept up. read more

My first time here from out of town celebrating my birthday and Lilibeth was the best and sweetest!! Definitely recommend this place it's such a cute place! read more

G’s Molcajete - a mexican meal - Tex-Mex Near Me - Crystal Beach, Texas

This is our first time eating here. Let's start off with the customer service, it's lacking. For breakfast, I was greeted with a "Have a seat wherever you want." No good mornings nor a hello. So don't come here expecting a good start of your day. We chose a Mexican restaurant for their cuisine and they were out of Charizo and Barbacoa. Otherwise the food was alright. We got medium rare for our ribeye and it looked raw. I don't know if that's what they like for medium rare but that was not what I expected. The waitress never came back to check on us to see if the food was ok or to give us any refills. Didn't wow us at all. read more

Not worth it, no customer service. Although an expected busy weekend staff was not having it. Faces, mood, even put on the closed sign so no others would come in. SMH, get new staff or shut it down. read more

Kinda sad it's so bad. There was 1 server for the whole restaurant. He didn't use a notepad and messed up half our orders. Food was weird. Service was ok just lacking alotttttttt read more

Our party of 6 walked right in and was able to get a table on a Sunday night at 7 pm. We were a little bummed to find out they didn't serve margaritas, but we settled on bottled beer and sodas. Never was offered a refill on any of it - service was a little lacking in my opinion, but the yummy food made up for it! Chips and salsa were delicious. We ordered queso which was great too. Fajitas, rice, beans, tortillas were all amazing. Zero complaints with the food. Would recommend and would definitely return. read more

Amazing breakfast chorizo burritos. Went back for lunch and again loved the large meat patty burgers. When go back we will certainly eat there again. read more

The breakfast tacos were good! Nice big potatoes and stuffed full of eggs. The bacon is extra crispy, and the tortillas are very good. I personally like a lot more seasoning, but overall good breakfast tacos. read more

We asked for more salsa and the waitress said it would be $3.50 more. Outrageous! There are many other places to go in the area that are more customer friendly. read more

Management obviously has too much business. On a Sunday morning with guests at the beach house, tried to get some tacos to go. There weren't more than 3-4 tables occupied, but they would not do a to go order. Won't be back or recommend to anyone. One star only because you can't leave zero. read more

Best Mexican breakfast I've had in years! We live G's. The professional staff of Paulina, Emily, Ben, Rihanna and Angie make very visit wonderful. They take great care to remember that we want "the usual" and their Mickey Mouse Pancakes, wow, the kids love them. Thanks Coco, Norma and G (The Grinch) for such great food read more

If you have to have Mexican...This place is slightly better than Del Fenix. Beans were bland well honestly all the food was bland. It was overall ok food and larger portions. read more
