Thank you for being open on Christmas. I know most people would not agree with that statement, but…read moreby being open, my family was able to enjoy our first Christmas cookout. My husband was so excited about cooking out for Christmas dinner that he realized he had forgotten a few cuts of meat. He couldn't go to the local HEB (closed on Christmas Day) so he drove by, taking a chance that this location would be closed as well. He was so happy that you were open and could get the items he forgot. We have been to this store before and have always received great service. The staff is always super friendly it's a cute little meat market/grocery store well kept and clean. My family will keep coming here. thank you

Steve's Food Mart was pretty good, and the locals know it. This place was packed and there was a…read moreline about 8-10 people long. I ordered a few tacos - enough for 5 people plus one extra taco. This was recommended to me and it didn't disappoint. It's a little far, but I will likely come back again. I really want to try their nopalitos taco next time. I asked for chilaquiles for myself and one of the ladies helping me said they didn't have it at the moment, but said she would make it, so I decided to wait. It didn't take too long to make, but I think next time I'll just get something already ready because everyone at home was hungry and waiting.

Haven't been to this location but really enjoyed the times we've been to the one in Brownsville. We…read moreordered 2 tortas, flautas and baked potato. We ordered without onion and cilantro and unfortunately they were made with everything on them. Had to go back and ask to be redone and when we got home we realized that one came without beans and the other had beans but my daughter doesn't like charro beans??? (Too spicy and has onion) Every place I've been to for tortas has just regular beans so not sure about that one. Anyways, we ended up getting a refund for them. Then the baked potato was way too over cooked. The spud was very tough and dry when it's supposed to be soft and fluffy. Then the flautas had no flavor and honestly tasted like they were prepped and fried before hand and then double fried to heat up. Not to mention there was nobody when we arrived to pick up the order so definitely not busy, just lack of quality. When all was said and done we didn't get the feeling that they would find a solution to their mistakes for the future and needless to say, we will not be returning.

And, hey, they weren't bad. Not exactly what I would crave, but they were good. This place is awesome, cheap fresh baked goods from pan dulce to cookies to apple fritters, you name it. Although it's pretty cheap, I actually ended up finding a cheaper place across the street - just as good, but not as cosmetically nice as Nelda's. The menu behind the counter says they also serve breakfast tacos. I never got to try these, but next time I'm in the area, I'm definitely going to have to do a little taste testing.

I was impressed, now I am wishing I would have bought more and frozen them for later! Must go and eat!
