The waitress was very attentive and checked on us often throughout - all the telltale signs of a good place to eat. So far so good - while looking though the menu we saw pictures of the Chicharones Cantinita - it looked amazing - so we decided to start with that. Needless to say, it was the single most delicious plate Ive have had in a long time! My friend told the cook that came out to serve it and plate it for us that it was the best thing he had ever had - Ever. Not idle praise but sincere commentary from a pair of Big Backs lol and I urge you to give it a try! Pictures are attached. Moving on to our main plate.... Ribeye tacos with bone marrow on the side....yeah.... The food got better.... They were also unbelievably good. Savory- with the light green salsa, and sprinkled with the extras to taste, all nestled in a soft corn tortilla taco with carmelized cheese layered under the ribeye beef.... Crazy Good....

The restaurant is humongous and beautifully decorated with vibrant colors. Service was okay but didn't feel very welcoming. They have complimentary chips and salsa which he bragged about but our visit the salsa was overly salty, unfortunately. My chicken meal was dry so I started eating off the chicken fajitas my son ordered and it was better. I'm guessing the cheese enchiladas my husband gets were great since he devoured his plate. I had high hopes especially when we drove 2 hours out of our way to try them but we may have visited on a bad day. I know my husband will keep coming so I'll definitely have to try them again possibly during the lunch buffet and hopefully I'll love them like he does.

This place is a pleasant surprise in Midland Texas. I had a combo plate. My enchilada had red chili on it like New Mexican style. It was spicy but not too hot and not the bland gravies mostly used in this area. The chili relleno was the best I've had in Midland. The taco was made with a freshly fried shell. And the rice and beans were good. The chips came with a delicious green salsa. I desired another relleno but having eaten everything on my plate, I was too full:( It was authentic and tasted home cooked. I will be eating here again. read more

If you're in the Midland downtown metro area, I would definitely recommend checking this place out. The tacos de birria definitely hit the spot with very well portioned and cooked tacos, a healthy serving of cilantro and onions, and delicious birria that had a good level of spice. The extra veggies for $1 was worth it in my opinion. The avocado for $3 was a rip off. There was barely any in there. Service was good. The guy behind the counter was very patient with all my questions and checked in on me to make sure everything was good. It would have been nice to have had utensils to eat the veggies and stuff but not a big deal.

Today I finally complained and decided to write an honest review about the services I've received there. I actually had to wipe my hands on my shirt (good thing I was in my work shirt) and use my hands to eat because I was given no silverware or napkins and when I asked for them I was only given one napkin and they still forgot the silverware. I couldn't even get a coaster for my beer and the napkin got soaked from the condensation of the beer. I asked for guacamole and the kids brought it in the bowl with his dinner in the guac. I complained about that and she just laughed. I always tip my servers but today I didn't tip anything. Not sorry. Only one star because I had to add a rating to post, but I don't even think they deserve the one star.
