One of Lufkin''s popular lunch spots, lunch specials are offered here so of course my coworkers and…read moreI hit this place up when we have an assignment in Lufkin. The Tex-Mex options here involve your normies such as enchiladas, quesadillas, burritos, fajitas, nachos, and tacos. All of these (or a combination of these) are part of the express lunch menu which is what we usually order. Most of the time, people in our group get some sort of enchiladas with the favorites being the avocado or the verde due to the sauces and cheesiness mixed in. The avocado is probably my favorite since I'm an avocado lover with the taste and texture. Other favorites are the street tacos where it comes with three tacos and the rice and beans. These tacos are quite large so it's not the traditional mexican street tacos with the onions/cilantro on the miniature tortillas. They are also packed and I mean PACKED with proteins; I've only gotten the al pastor cause I keep coming back to it. Something about it that makes it addicting with the tenderness of the meat and spices. We'll have to try dinner here sometime cause they have quite the selection of entrees such as the drunken shrimp, fajita platter, and pollo poblano. Bueno Trabajo Herraduras!

Honestly this place was fire! I wasn't expecting it to be all that from the outside (right next to…read morea cici's pizza) but walked inside and it was nice. The booths were tall and secluded so that's a plus and the food was amazing. The salsa they served was so good, I had to force myself not to eat it all with the chips and the main dish itself was so fresh and flavorful. I got the California bowl and my husband got a chicken plate and it was just great. For the price and the portion size, everything was on point. I got the non alcoholic cucumber drink and that was fresh too. The staff was nice and attentive. The food did take some time to come out but it's because everything was so fresh and definitely worth the wait.

We hosted approximately 200 guests in Palestine, TX, and the experience was elevated significantly by your outstanding staff. We specifically want to recognize Hunter, Haley, Yari, and Rolando for their professionalism and dedication. They arrived on time, took the initiative to introduce themselves, and actively participated in our logistics meeting. Throughout the evening, they displayed remarkable teamwork and a genuine commitment to service, greeting our guests with warmth and hospitality. Please also extend our thanks to Maria and the kitchen staff. The food was superb, arriving fresh and hot, and the Tres Leches cake was a particular highlight for our guests. You have an "A+++" team at El Toro. We look forward to recommending your catering services to the community and working with Brittany, Maria and their Teams again for future events.

We recently visited Frida's Kitchen & Bar while in College Station for a game and date night, and…read morewe had a wonderful experience. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with vibrant, colorful murals and has a romantic, welcoming atmosphere. We were greeted warmly and seated immediately. Service began with complimentary chips and dips, which were fresh and flavorful. We started with the Queso Fundido--such a generous portion, and we finished every bite. It was really good. For our entrées, we ordered Mima's Pasta Poblana and a half order of the Barbacoa. The Barbacoa was flavorful and very well done, but our favorite dish by far was Mima's Pasta Poblana--delicious, unique, and memorable. Service throughout the meal was good, everything was reasonably priced, and the overall experience was excellent. We're already looking forward to visiting Frida's Kitchen & Bar again and trying more from the menu.

I was on a road trip and decided to stop to eat, I ordered 4 tacos (Carnitas, Carne Asada, Chorizo and Al Pastor), rice and chips & salsa. My entire order was phenomenal. The prices are more affordable than a fast food meal, and the flavors are unmatched if you like Mexican Food. The restaurant portion is currently closed due to lack staff since the pandemic, so the orders are takeout only, but the order does not take very long and the food is well worth it. I highly recommend this restaurant.
