    Chilaquiles
    Hannah N.

    We wanted to seek out a local spot for breakfast and came upon this quaint little place. They have about 7 tables inside for dining in. They seem popular for to-go orders. The breakfast menu is extensive, so much that I had a hard time deciding. I went for my usual chilaquiles in the end and my family had various breakfast tacos. The food was brought out shortly and everything was hot and fresh. My chilaquiles was simple and tasty with the eggs cooked just right. My family's breakfast tacos had a good amount of filling and was also tasty. The green salsa that was brought out was slightly warm and had the perfect amount of kick to it without being too spicy. We left happy and full. The ladies were friendly and welcoming. Great local spot that we all agreed we would gladly come back to support!

    Burrito de Papas & Chilaquiles
    Stephen G.

    I recently moved here from Miami, and was looking for a joint with my aunt, who is a local. We decided upon this inconspicuous spot after multiple failed attempts at many bigger name restaurants. Boy were we in for a surprise... On my first visit I had the fajita quesadilla, while my aunt had the soup (fideo). The second time we came here was for breakfast, whereupon I had the burrito de papas and my aunt had the chilaquiles. The first thing I noticed was the quality of the food. My quesadilla had real steak in it - and it was good! Such great flavor, pouring out of each and every bite. For what it's worth, my aunt loved the soup as well. The quality, and quantity, of the breakfast was astounding - not to mention the great price! My burrito, which was the size of a small infant, was exquisite. Perfect combination of eggs, bacon, and potato. The quality of the bacon was also excellent. I was extremely surprised. My aunt couldn't say enough about her chilaquiles. We have definitely found our new "joint." Do your self a favor and pass by this little, unassuming, place. You will be in for treat. Now I know what they mean when they say, "it's what's on the inside that counts." Never has a place more embodied the spirit of that phrase. I'll be coming back. Definitely.

    Trio Fajita Lunch

    So I came here to grab some food to go. It's a small hole in the wall type spot. Those types of restaurants normally slap, so I was excited. However this was a rare exception. First off, social distancing was nonexistent. Restaurant was running at full capacity with less than 6 feet of space between full tables. Additionally, I was told my food would take 15 minutes to make, but I ended up waiting over 30 minutes. I ordered trio fajitas, beef, chicken, and shrimp fajita with a side of rice and b. Portion size was small for the price. Additionally, the fajita was overcooked. The long wait, disappointing meal, and lack of social distancing means I won't be coming back.

    This place is breakfast perfection. The staff are friendly. They are quick to refill your coffee and if their breakfast burritos are the best I've found. The beans are seasoned just right, the tortilla is homemade and the tomatillo sauce is spicy and flavorful. If you are in Galveston, give this place a try.

    I am in love with the #26 breakfast burrito! Yelp is making me write more, so hopefully this is enough.

    Very traditional hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant. Not fancy, but delivers if you are looking for something more authentic.

    Why 5 stars? Because this might be my new favorite restaurant in Galveston…read more --- --- --- We had been in Galveston for a couple of days, and while we had some solid meals, we were feeling kind of gross and overstuffed. Fish Company Taco proved to be like finding water in the desert. A lot of Galveston eateries are very similar, in that there's an ample amount of fried seafood on the menu, which is not exactly what you're looking for when you're in the bloated, but wanting to eat *something* state that we were in. My thought was: fish tacos are relatively light and we can walk there from our hotel - how do you beat that? What I didn't realize is that this place probably belongs more in the Heights than Galveston. And I mean that in a good way. The menu is very hipster-coded. And the food matches with hipster quality. It's hard to say what my favorite item even was. The one thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the fish dip - it was just okay. Everything else ranged from good to great. We tried... The burger: FYI, it's more like a double stacked slider than a burger, but delicious. 3 Tacos: Dirty South, Empire and Korean Flavors. I really liked the empire and the korean flavors, but thought the dirty south had a little too much going on with the pimento cheese and chips. Sticky Shrimp: I don't even know how to describe this, but it was delicious. I thought it as more like bang bang shrimp, but it was more fried that I expected. But not hardcore fried - they almost had the airy texture of fried pork skins, but were much tastier. Chili marinated Cucumbers and corn ribs: Simple, refreshing and addicting. But I liked the cucumbers a bit more. They also had some fresh juices and we enjoyed both the mango and the coconut lime concoctions. An easy 5-stars for me and a place I will definitely recommend to anyone visiting Galveston.

    The food was decent, but the service was good. I tried the Captain Johnny it was crispy and…read moresatisfying, especially with a side of fries. The Vietnamese taco stood out the most for me, while the Baja and Korean flavors were just okay, not really my favorites. Overall, it's a chill spot with a relaxed vibe and not too crowded. I'd recommend coming during happy hour to get the best experience.
