On this days adventure I found myself in Kyle, and looking for something to eat. It just so happens that I'm near Garcia's Mexican Restaurant, and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the meal given. But to begin with this story let's start with the location, it's at the end of the building housing the restaurant. You notice a good amount of parking for the size of the place, as you enter you're warmly welcomed and you choose your seating unless you have a large group they'll accommodate your request. As your seated you are greeted by the person who will take your order, and they'll bring you some tasty chips and salsa and get what you'll be drinking. After a few minutes they'll come back to take your food order the personnel are kind and outgoing. And it is in this condition that this place shines, because the food I ordered was absolutely delicious. I chose the "Garcia's Chicken Fried Chicken" and I was very surprised how delicious it was, the cheese sauce complemented the lightly battered chicken fried very well, the rice and beans that accompanied the meal was equally delicious. Overall this place has to be on your list of places to try it. read more

We ordered pickup. Chicken flautas plate, rice, refried beans. Sour cream and quacamole. Chicken quesadilla, large queso. No Pico, a tiny container of salsa. Flautas were undercooked but the Chicken was very dry with no seasoning. Tasted like old grease was used. Queso tasted like Velveeta. So disappointing. There are great reviews and I wonder if they are for other locations because this place is terrible. Such a sad meal. I feel sorry for the beans. read more

Service a 1. Good quality a 2. Disappointing experience. I specifically ordered huevos rancheros with salsa on the side, but it came smothered on top anyway. The bacon was burnt to a crisp, and getting a side of salsa was a battle--I asked twice, but our server never brought it. To top it off, my tea sat empty with no refill. Basic attention to detail is seriously lacking here read more

Great food, prices, and friendly service. Best in Kyle! The Tejano music always brings me back to childhood

Service with a smile! The staff was so friendly. It was clean & cozy -- and the food was excellent. Highly recommend!

Love the food here. So far, everything we've tried has been top notch. The tortilla soup is the best in the area and the chips are always warm and crunchy. Definitely home made. Check it out read more

Grossss! I can't believe how busy it is. The food was inedible, wine based margaritas and took FOREVER for our food to come out, it was a random Wednesday night so I love that they're successful but I genuinely don't understand how read more

Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon since this was one of the few places open. GLAD WE DID! This is a great little stop-in that hit the spot for some easy Mexican food. We were immediately greeted with chips and salsa, and also ordered a queso for dipping. Queso was perfect - liquid cheese that awaits a chip. Not too runny, not too thick. Our waitress was AWESOME!! I was between options and she recommended trying the green chicken enchiladas but swap for shrimp - I think they were some of the best green enchiladas that I've had! Flavors paired perfectly. She also kept our chips and drinks full the whole time. Boyfriend also ordered chicken enchiladas topped with queso which were also good - the chicken was very flavorful inside of the tortillas. read more

Awesome food. We have diner and lunch here every time we visit Kyle Texas. The food is authentic and the ambiance of the establishment sits perfectly with the meal. read more

I would return simply for the chips and salsa. Every breakfast brunch dish we ordered was on point. Coffee was great. However, we especially loved how the server kept refilling our dish with additional chips when needed. Friendly servers made the ambiance very enjoyable. read more

BE AWARE ! - " $1.95 Extra for Charro beans" While the beans were tasty, we were taken back as to why the upcharge. Our server could not explain that charge so the manager came to our table and simply told us to his defense that, that was the charge that was displayed on the menu. Who expects to find that on any Mexican restaurant menu? No reasonable explanation for the upcharge was ever given other than him offering to comp a dessert. The beef Fajitas lacked any flavor and and not tender. We realize that those that work in the food industry have a demanding job but transparency for the food that we as customers are paying for should not include charging ridiculous prices. Overall the food was reasonably good but not good enough for us to return. read more

Arroz con pollo bowl is something I have never seen on a mexican restaurant menu so I decided to try it and it was DELICIOUS..... something so simple to make should be on more menus. It was very flavorful with just the right amount of kick and so very filling. This is a large so I was able to take half home for later!!!!! read more

Everywhere we went around Kyle and asked where to get the best Mexican food, everyone said the same thing. Go to Garcia's. We had high hopes, especially since we've been living in Houston and still haven't found a go-to Mexican spot we love. Garcia's is in a small shopping center in Kyle and it totally delivered on what people told us and what we'd read online. As soon as we sat down, we were served hot chips with both hot and mild salsa and let me just say, yum. The chips were so fresh they almost had a buttery flavor to them and yep, they were bottomless. We definitely had two rounds without hesitation. We kept it simple and ordered beef flautas, which came with refried beans and a generous scoop of guacamole and sour cream on the side. Everything came out piping hot, fresh, lovingly cooked and was just super satisfying. Exactly what we were craving. Our waitress was awesome...so friendly and attentive. She even told us a bit about the restaurant's story and how there are eight Garcia's locations now. She was so good at her job we actually thought she was the owner. Just a great dining experience all around. The place feels authentic, welcoming, and when we got the check, we couldn't believe our whole meal was under $30. If anyone from Garcia's is reading this, please, please open one in Houston. It would be well received! We'll be back for sure next time we're in the area. read more

My Mom wanted to try Garcia's so she got the family some food. My Mom said the staff were friendly and helped her order. She said it was very busy and a lot of people were coming to pick up to go orders also. My niece had the kids meal chicken tenders and fries and it was a lot for a kid. 2 large pieces of chicken and a tray of fries. Mom got a burrito, beans and noodles. She said the noodles were good and beans were the best she has had. Hubby got the chicken fried chicken and he said it was pretty good. He liked the rice and beans. I got a taco and it was good as well. Overall, we were very satisfied and will be back to try other items. read more

Fair prices and GREAT Tex Mex. Friendly family atmosphere and the best salsa in the business IMO.

We have passed this restaurant so many times and finally decided to try it! It is always packed for breakfast and wanted to give it a try. We were able to sit anywhere we wanted and had the best service. I loved that they serve chips and salsa for breakfast. The menudo is what the server suggested and was delicious and piping hot! The chorizo was delicious and was very pleased with our meal. We are around 9am and it was pretty full inside! We definitely liked the food and will be back to try lunch! read more

Stopped by for a quick bite after a fun activity down the street at Unchartered Adventures. The place was hopping! But didn't have to wait too long for a table. The chips and salsa were fast. The Green enchiladas were great! Service was fantastic. Of I'm back in the area, will be stopping in again. read more

just paid 15$ plus dollars for a tortilla chicken soup this is the amount of chicken I got. It was mostly tortillas chips and cheese. I am not ordering from this place again. I ordered large beverages and they gave me a medium size. I recommend going to Robles for the tortilla soup as they give you larger size portion of chicken breast and other ingredients for about the same price. read more

Garcia's Mexican Restaurant - The example of a bad purchase should of ordered from Robles - Mexican Near Me - Kyle, Texas

Food is always fantastic.. from bottomless chips and salsa. The sweet tea is an addiction food flavor is always consistent and great.. and the atmosphere is great not like the buda location where the music is over bearingly loud and difficult to hear your conversation across the table. HOWEVER, please invest in felt pads for the chairs.. the sound is so annoying PLEASE!!! read more

Garcias has great food and service dining in if you are not sitting next to the ovens in summer but should reconsider delivery service - not once have we received our tortillas in the multiple times we have ordered via Uber eats and of those times only twice has the order been correct besides tortillas. We never order below $120. Disappointing. read more

We went to eat here today can't tell you too much except we got there at 8:50 am early before the rush time and are waitress never said hi or good morning then she took our order and forgot to put it in so we never got our food we keep see all of her other tables that came after us where getting their food but not us then the manager realized she never but are ordered in we had been sitting there for about 40 minutes without anything. So we just got up and left. We have been going there since the Buda location was closed but we have never had a problem in the Buda location that they always receive us like family. Management needs to train some of their waiters. Food in this location in Kyle is always good no problem with that we love to eat at Garcia but just the service needs help. read more

There is not a lot of charm to the place. It's not old and quaint, it's in a strip mall. But it's got pretty good Tex mex.

Good food. Good service. I haven't been here in over 10 years. It is exactly how I remember. When I come in from Colorado I stop here or the Buda location. Start off with the chili con queso. The chips are amazing. Same for the rice, beans, and carne guisada. Get the sweet tea unless you have cavities. read more

Great place would recommend for sure. Eat there frequently just saying good chips. If you go you will return

The salsa and chips are great! Love them! They have really good tacos. It's quite reasonable.

Not open late enough! I get off work at 8pm and want tacos that are not fast food. Kyle is growing. I'm sure it would be worth it to stay open an extra hr. An extra hour everyday! So 10pm on weekends. Closing at 9pm on a weekends is crazy. read more

Of all Ihe Mexican / TexMex restaurants I tried in Kyle, Garcia's is so authentic and the best. Very nice people, same chef since they opened. Oscar is GM and super concerned with customer experience. Food is excellent, it's no wonder so many of the guests appear to be of Mexican or Central American descent... without a doubt this is my favorite restaurant in Kyle. read more

Garcia's is the place to stop and eat when in Kyle Texas! The food is amazing! Chip and Salsa are bomb! The staff is extremely friendly and attentive! overall wonderful atmosphere read more

Garcia's never disappointments me when it comes to the quality of food, friendly and fast service, and their prices are super reasonable! I have not had a bad experience here. Most recently I have made the trek from South Austin and brought some friends along with me on the 20 minute drive to get the most authentic and tasty Tex-Mex food that can be found near or around Austin. Seriously - go try it yourself and tell me what you think. Now that I work full-time in Austin I miss having Garcia's weekly. I am a fan of both breakfast plates and tacos as well as their lunch and dinner specials. There is a large menu of items for you to choose from including breakfast all day! There is something for everyone including the littles. Plenty of seating even if you have a large group too as they have a spacious patio as well. It is seat yourself style when you walk in and do note the left side of the restaurant implies its for the bar area but you can sit anywhere you can find a seat for you and your company that is with you. Beef fajitas are super delicious and the chips and salsa are a favorite of mine. I used to buy bags of the chips for work potlucks (for when I was lazy and didn't want to cook). You seriously cannot find good chips like Garcia's. TRY ME! Peek their lunch specials as they are always come with a lot of food, have something new to try away from the regular menu, and will not disappoint you! read more

My husband and I had not been to Garcia's in a while and we decided to give it a try. We were told to sit anywhere we'd like. 15 minutes went by and no one acknowledged us or even told us they would be right with us. A group of people came after us and they were offered chips and drinks shortly after their arrival. We ended up leaving the restaurant. There were at least 10 tables open so I am not sure what was going on but won't be going back anytime soon. read more

I don't go all the time but the pros and cons. Great customer service. Food has good flavor! But quantity of the food has been poor. Breakfast tacos have gotten smaller for the price. "Come on Gracias ...don't turn into Chipotle !" read more

Great place for breakfast lunch and dinner. Staff is super friendly and quick. Never a bad meal here. Place is clean. Service is awesome. read more

Breakfast is great other than they have the WORST BITTER coffee I have ever tasted. Please think about your customers who want a good cup of coffee and stop buying the cheapest coffee you can find!!! read more

Stopped in at 8:15pm on a Saturday night. Place was pretty busy. Unfortunately, the main thing I came for was the margaritas. The staff attended to us within moments of seating ourselves. When I immediately ordered a margarita, I was informed that the machine had already been emptied and closed. What? At 8:15? This was nearly an hour before closing at 9pm. That was probably the saddest thing a waitress has ever told me. We left without ever even dipping a chip in the complimentary salsa. We'll return at some point, but it will be much earlier since the margaritas are on senior citizen time. read more

Food was no where near authentic. The chips they give as an appetizer are bland and taste store bought. They taste exactly like Tostitos chip. Any real authentic Mexican restaurant will make there own chips. None of the same drink as a real Mexican restaurant. This is as white washed as it gets. Go to a real restaurant and you wont regret it. Most of the servers have no Spanish speaking skills for a Mexican restaurant. read more

We love this restaurant. We have lived in Kyle for over 6 years now and this is the most consistent food and waitstaff around. It is always a pleasant experience. Never one complaint and I can be fussy. Good portion sizes as well. They also serve chips before 11am without charge and have the most crisp chips around.. read more

I've been ordering takeout from here for years but just had a terrible experience with the girl on the line. She put me on hold for five minutes and every time I called back she put me on hold again. On the 4th try she yelled at me she was busy. Uhh, I'll find someplace else. read more

This place has GREAT food. They are very popular locally so you may experience a wait even on weeknights. Expect a wait on weekends. I eat here a lot and think it's worth it. Have also picked up takeout and asked for substitutions and they are always accommodating and friendly . I have tried almost everything on the menu and my only complaint is the wait. But that is a product of their success. I highly recommend them. read more

Food was awesome and on point I would highly recommend you come and try it out the service was excellent from our waiter nayeli needs a raise now!!The people where nice and the place looked good try it out now! read more

We love Garcías ! We normally will order some breakfast tacos and pick them up on the weekends. Servers are always super nice as well.
