Sadly I do not recall his name but he was attentive, friendly and patient as we had all our kids with us. The restaurant is huge with a large outdoor dining space as well. So it is a good place if you have a large party. The portions are a good size. Like I said above the food was good, filled us up and what you might expect from a Tex-Mex style restaurant.

I'm not a fan of corn tortillas but these were AMAZING... the salsa was wonderful too. Now they did not serve chips and salsa so don't be disappointed when they don't bring you chips, but the food was totally worth it. The tacos were big and full of chicken or beef (which is actually steak). Don't be fooled by the grocery store attached. There's a little restaurant beside it. The service was wonderful and she spoke English, which was great, cause we don't know Spanish. I would totally recommend this place!!! Forgot to take pictures...

If you crave authentic street tacos with fresh, soft, made to order, tortillas, and melt in your…read moremouth meats then stop wasting your time reading this, get in your car and go now! (I highly recommend the chicken.) For those still reading, if you're used to going out for "Mexican" food where sombreros hang on fake adobe walls and the lunch menu includes something called the Speedy #5, forget it. But, if you grew up in the South like me and know that a craving for Nanny's biscuits and gravy means avoiding flashy chain restaurants like the plague, you'll understand Carniceria Y Tienda La Mexicana the minute you walk in the door. This is a wonderful place serving up authentic examples of Mexican down-home cooking. A few things to keep in mind: 1. The menu seems to be fairly extensive, although I've never actually seen a menu. 2. If you don't speak Spanish, you might be in for an adventure. Don't let that scare you away though! Persevere and you'll be well rewarded. My first time, I was a bit out of my depth. Luckily a nearby table of young ladies came to my rescue and acted as my translators! 3. When you're ready to pay, take your ticket to the counter in the attached grocery store. Make sure to browse while you're there for tasty treats unavailable in your local mega-mart. 4. If you're concerned about a language barrier, go to the grocery store counter when you arrive and ask for a little assistance ordering, they're very nice and quite fluent in English. I've saved the best for last. On Fridays and Saturdays, the ladies in the kitchen make up a giant batch of the best Tamales I've ever tasted. In fact they might be one of the best anythings I've ever tasted. So, run by on your Friday lunch break and pick up a couple. You won't even have to wait since the guys at the grocery store counter keep a bunch on hand. Your mouth will thank you!

Really good, authentic Mexican food located in an out of the way part of Jasper. This family-owned…read morerestaurant has a wide array of choices and the food is fresh and tasty. My husband always orders the grilled shrimp tacos, and I opted for a chorizo burrito this time. It was amazing! I made sure I had some jalapeños on the side (choose fresh or pickled) and some of their fiery hot sauce. Plenty of heat and the chorizo was delicious. The restaurant itself is a very basic, nondescript place just outside the VA clinic in Jasper. It is always very clean and the service is very friendly and accommodating. We highly recommend this place for its delicious authentic food. You won't be disappointed!

I could not understand what they were discussing since it was in Spanish, but it wasn't an order since she never did anything with the register or called anything back to the cook. Menu items were much more expensive than I was expecting for the establishment, mote in line with a full service restaurant. My Birria Taco was cooked to order, hot, and fresh, great taste but much less filling than the price warranted. I'll give it another shot and dine in sometime.
