    NO STANDARDS

    This is pretty fucked up how the quesadillas were just placed in this small ass container for it to just get saggy and sloppy.

    Migas and a side of carne guisada.
    Gary M.

    Huge burritos, great service, delicious food. The surprise burrito is definitely filling. Today I had their migas (~$7) and a side of carne guisada (~$7). The migas were very good but I didn't see an option to add onion, tomatoes, and peppers. So they came plain, I added cheese. I was not disappointed but expected the veggies. No biggie. The carne guisada was a little different than TexMex carne guisada. This was more like a beef stew with carrots and I think yucca (it didn't seem like potato). The meat was extremely tender. It's a great local place and the service is excellent . Can't wait to try more from this place.

    It's an older establishment - nothing to look at for ambience inside or out. The locals to the area had the place 80% full at lunch hour. Prices were very low .. in the $5 to $10 range. Counter service was excellent. Menu variety was huge - Mexican, American, El Salvadoran. Tostada was large and good. Chorizo with eggs was good. For what it is ... it's successful. Good for them!

    Pupusa with pork chicken quesadillas and chips with guacamole

    We just tried this place and it was super delicious, had amazing service and everything was very fresh. Prices for the authentic mom and pop experience are incredible and I will be going back to try the burritos! We got the pupusa with pork and the chicken quesadillas. We also got a side of chips and guac and they gave us chips so hot and fresh that they burned my finger on the drive home!!! Incredible!!! Also the guac serving was huge!! Definitely go here!!!

    Pork papusa

    Don't miss out on an amazing local dining experience by passing by Henry's! It may not look like much, as a big orange/yellow drive thru building off Broadway, but holy moly the food is insane! I've never had a bad meal, or bad customer service and I've been dining here for over a decade. My husband has sworn that the burger here is the best he's ever had and has eaten them since he was in college at TAMUG. Todays review is about the burger, el savadorian enchiladas, and the heavenly papusa. Seriously the pork papusa is magical. Hands down the star of the show!!! The street tacos and enchiladas are always good too! All of the employees are so friendly and welcoming with big smiles and southern hospitality.

    Tacos Hondurenos plate

    We tried out Henry's today and HOLY CANNOLI...... sooooo good! We had Salvadorian food and Jay had the pupusa plate that were stuffed with pork chicken and beans and cheese and I had the Tacos Hondurenos plate and HOLY SMOKES..... it was AMAZING with TONS of flavor!!!! It was like flautas stuffed with chicken and stuff and topped with heavenly goodness! Even Jay said mine was better! Lol! They were both good and completely homemade but mine ABSOLUTELY was to die for!!We WILL DEFINITELY be back and the staff was SUPER sweet and helped us to decide what to get!

    I love Henry's. It's solid, the drive thru is open late and the pupusas are awesome. This is a locals spot. Make no mistake about it.

    It has lasted this long for a reason. They offer classic…read moreTexMex dishes at a good price. The staff was friendly and quick to help with everything our party needed. While there may be better Mexican food on the island, this is a solid choice when you're craving comfortable and familiar food.

    Open since 1916, the Original Mexican Cafe is within walking distance from the Port of Galveston…read more My brother and I stopped in for a weekend early breakfast, and we found the service, price, and taste to be good. It opens at 8 am, so we waited around outside until it opened promptly. It has two main dining rooms, one of which was being used for the breakfast crowd. A basket of really good freshly fried thin tortilla chips were given with a decent salsa. We were given a breakfast menu, which had many things I wanted to try. 3 Barbacoa Tacos a la carte ($9.75) - a lot better deal than the plate (2 tacos with rice/beans/potatoes for $11.95). The tacos were good, decent size on a flour tortilla with cilantro, raw onions, and limes. It was decent quality shredded beef: moist and tender with good flavor. Menudo ($9.95) - only served on the weekend, this version was big with a ton of beef tripe (a lot more than there was hominy, which I'm not used to). I like tripe, but this amount was too much for me. The broth was flavorful and rich, and a good remedy for the little cold I had been fighting. Ended up finishing maybe half of it (ate all the hominy though). You pay at the front. Service was friendly throughout, and by the time we were leaving, the place was filling up. Parking is street, and there was plenty of it in the area.
