We tried this place yesterday for the first time and it was treat. The place was clean, the staff was friendly and attentive. The food was fantastic. Some of the best we've had lately. Will definitely recommend to friends and will for sure be back. read more

After reading the negative comments we were hesitant to go eat there. I'm glad we went! It was our First time to visit this restaurant and it exceeded our expectations. The fresh salsa and queso blanco was very flavorful. We ordered street tacos and again, we weren't disappointed. We will definitely be going back for more! read more

No karaoke .. just over priced tex mex and a noisy atmosphere. I will NOT be back. We called and asked for karaoke for.my daughters birthday and they confirmed they had it and they indeed do not.. Waste of time. I give no stars... Is that possible? Livingston just got more boring they used to host karaoke every weekend.. So lame. read more

This place is fantastic! It feels like a trip back in time to when Tex-Mex was affordable and portions were generous. The value here is truly refreshing. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant is spotlessly clean, making it extremely family-friendly. While the margarita is just average--not bad, but strong enough --the food more than makes up for it. The quesadillas are amazing at just $14 for eight pieces. Many places only offer four triangles at the same price or more, but not here. They're packed with cheese, and the steak and chicken are tender and juicy. We also tried the Dirty Donkey, a hefty beef burrito smothered in their delicious chili gravy, served with beans and rice, and a Crunchy taco for only $13. Plus, I had the two-taco combo plate, which included an enchilada (I chose cheese) and a tamale, and beans and rice all covered in chili gravy. I opted for a crunchy beef taco and a soft chicken taco. That was a great value, with a ton of food for around $14. I can't wait to return the next time I'm in the area! read more

We ordered takeout. The Tex-Mex dish (Vaquero) was good, but the tortilla soup was awful. It had a strong vinegar taste and smell. We couldn't eat it. And it wasn't cheap either. read more

I had a very average experience. The staff was super friendly but clearly super busy. They were as attentive as they could be with several huge tables to service at one time. Unfortunately, the place is currently under repairs because Mother Nature has been boxing with Livingston for the last 3 weeks. Personal issue: I do not like paying high prices for Mexican food. Barely 1 appetizer under $10. You are telling me that 2 flautas and rice is $15? My frugal meter just isn't a fan of eating Mexican food at sit-down restaurants. Tate wise, the complimentary chips needed salt. The complimentary salsa lacked flavor. The taco that came with my donkey plate was the most enjoyable thing I had. It tasted really fresh, but it was a mini taco. No bueno. The burrito was just average as well. How do I have so much space on my plate? All in all, I would not rush back here because the price to portion ratio is way off. I know big groups automatically have an 18% gratuity on their check... but I think my waiter was trying to be slick. He had the gratuity set at 20% and didn't give receipts once we paid. There is not anything that would make me rush back here. read more

The food is not like it used to be. It's thrown together and the meat looks cheap and taste cheap too. They don't even put any effort in having decent lettuce for the taco salad. Used to be really good. read more

Have not been disappointed and have been here several times. Their grilled chicken that is served with the burritos and tacos is simple breast meat chunks that is delicious. Highly recommend the Queso cheese sauce (one free at lunch) 11-4 it has peppers in it so it has a little kick but is amazingly delicious. The salsa is served warm and is also a great flavor. Happy hour from 11-7 makes for a great inexpensive lunch. The lunch prices can't be entered in their computer system after 4:00 so if you are coming after 3:30 make sure they ring you up on the lunch price just let them know to ring you up at the lunch rate. Their burrito Blanco comes with queso sauce on it and if you like solid white meat chicken rice and beans it's a great item to try! read more

I just ate the best chicken taco salad I've ever had in my life! I used queso and salsa as the "dressing" and omg! Delicious! The chicken was grilled to perfection and the greens were crisp and fresh. We are going back to Houston tomorrow, but I'm getting another salad before we leave! Our server was super fast and everything was perfect! read more

No matter how many cars are in the been in the parking lot. They have always been able to seat me right away. The service is fast, the margaritas are good and the food is always consistent. On this visit they served me so fast, I thought they stole my plate from someone else. I got the Guadalajara combo which was plenty of food and delicious. I would put this as one of the best of the Mexican places in this area. read more

Great service if you ask for Cowboy! He always takes super good care of our family and guests! Good food and the best margaritas in town. Overall, our favorite Mexican food in town, ambiance is pretty good, they're very accommodating! read more

They have the best Mexican food in town without a doubt! Yummy fajitas, GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE, the bar area is huge and they have bands that play frequently also! They also have the BEST MARGARITAS on this planet! But make sure to only have ONE margarita because I PROMISE YOU WILL BE TWO SHEETS TO THE WIND!! So go grab you a margarita and a designated driver because you will definitely be feeling stuffed and just right on the buzz side lmao! read more

Visiting my family today and sister insisted on going out to dinner. Ended up here. Pulled up and we're worried because the lot was so full, but there was no wait. seems most of the folks were in the back listening to karaoke. We were waited on quickly, had some queso for an appetizer, sharing the street tacos and cheese enchiladas. Mom said they are the best enchiladas (especially the sauce) she has ever had. Tacos were good. Rice & beans were okay. Rita's were too strong for me, and not because of alcohol, just too sweet and not so great. But the atmosphere was nice and so was the staff. Would like to try the fajitas, as we saw some come out and they looked and smelled amazing! Seems like a popular place for a Friday night! read more

Slow service. Food was cold. Almost 2 hours and didn't eat entree because it was cold. Won't be back.

Good service in a fun, festive and family friendly atmosphere sets Pueblo Viejo apart from the competition. Most recently I walked in with a large party during the dinner rush, the staff didn't blink, and we were seated within a few minutes. As busy as it was, service was prompt and attentive. It took time to run drinks etc. but well within expectations. Pueblo Viejo is not a gourmet restaurant, but it's pretty darn good for a town of about 5,000 people. The diverse menu covers all the bases from nachos, salads, lettuce wraps, seafood, steak, enchiladas, tacos, gigantic burritos, platters, and combinations. Even if you don't like Mexican food, you can find something on the menu you'll like. The cocktails are OK. It's hard to penalize them when I haven't found a place in town that's better. Overall Pueblo Viejo offers great service and good food at reasonable prices. read more

We love this place. We go at least once a week. Their salsa is amazing. It's served warm and the food is just as good. The margaritas are over the top and the staff is incredible. Highly recommend. read more

Easily the best food we had in Lake Livingston! Came on a Saturday night and it was busy, but we were seated right away. Our waiter was fantastic! Very friendly and funny! We got a pitcher of the house margaritas on the rocks and they were tasty-not too sweet, which makes me happy. The salsa had a bit of a kick (yay). They special made a burrito for our son, which he devoured instantly, so I think it was a hit. Hubby got enchiladas and liked them. I got the chicken diablo and added fresh jalapenos (which came out roasted)-seriously yummy! We will be back when in the area! read more

One of the best, if not the best Tex-Mex Restaurant's in Livingston, Texas. Located East of Highway 59 on Highway 190 West bound. First went there a couple of years ago to meet my in-laws in the way up to Woodville. The food was very good as we're the margaritas!!! If you have a chance to visit on your way up to the lake, or whatever your doing. I suggest you order the chunky Guacamole salad as an appetizer! There version is the kicked up a couple of notches version. The avacado is chunky along with the tomatoes and onions, only they add jalapeños to theirs and it's really wonderful! Their other food is really good well. I had the enchiladas that come with beans and rice. Their tacos are really good as was everything else that our group ordered. You could tell it was good because once the food arrived, there wasn't a while lot of talking going on!!! read more

Server and food were great but the blonde hostess that worked 10/10/21 treated us like we were less of people. Walked in didn't get greeted, when she walked us to our table we both said thank you she turned around looked us up and down and walked away. When we went to check out she purposely ran into my friend. My friend said sorry she rolled her eyes and walked away. This is not acceptable to feel unwanted like that In any restaurant. read more

Food tasted canned and your same old heat n eat. I ordered a dirty donkey and it was sorry. Full of canned refried beans with a tablespoon of ground meat. Nothing seemed like it was from scratch. Used to bee good food but things change. Save your stomach and try Patron down the street. Service well you try it . Place is always packed. My last trip there cause I can do better! read more

Just got Nick for $15 for one margarita good food but that's a little expensive in my book

Awesome prices! Awesome salsa! Service was good! Food was perfect with only one issue. The bed of caramelizes onions under bothe of our chicken breasts had onion skins, which are dry, lack flavor and you should avoid in your dishes. Only reason why I gave them 4 stars and not 5. They could easily be a 5 star location. read more

First time eating here. Called a couple of Mexican restaurants and they were closed for in house dining. This was recommended as you could go inside. Once we were seated we were greeted by Cowboy. Checked out the menu and asked for a few changes to the order. Cowboy was most accommodating and basically your wish is my command. The food was excellent and Cowboy was very attentive. The only problem was that we were from up north and felt they should move where we could eat there at least once a week. read more

lady working register was very hostile and had no manners at all. no one is going to want to eat here with her being so rude and giving dirty looks. i hope as a business you can do better, and resolve this issue. read more

I ordered carne Guisada and they brought carne asada, which is not even close and more expensive. We asked to switch the rice for a small salad. They brought the rice and lettuce & tomatoes on the side. Food was cold. read more

First of all the restaurant had a "funny" kind of unclean odor when we walked in. We ignored it desperate for tacos and a margarita. The salsa tasted like spaghetti sauce, queso was ok, we won't order it again. Our server was extremely rude, she NEVER smiled, never said anything but "are you ready to order?" I know they probably get a lot of tourists/vacationers that but we just bought a permanent home in the are and were looking for a regular Mexican restaurant to patronize. This is definitely not the one. The food wasn't great but simply "ok" We won't be back. read more

Love the fresh avocado dip. So delicious. My favorite meal is still the chile rellenos. Just wish it weren't so loud in there! Met an old friend passing through town and we had a difficult time time visiting because of the noise level. Service was spotty, too. It took far too long to bring us lemon for tea, plates for appetizer, etc. read more

Best Sangria frozen Margaritas around. I had Nachos Grande with Chicken . My favorite Mexican food in this part of Texas. They also have a location in Cleveland, Texas. The waiters have backup assistants. I don't know if they are bus boys are simply backup assistance. But they are the greatest part of the team. They are the ones that make sure every table has what it needs. Kudos to them. Plenty of parking. read more

Beware your credit card! We went here for an early dinner one Saturday. The food was palatable, but not outstanding. The service was okay, but not stellar. When we paid for your dinner, we used our credit card (that we rarely use). Three days later it was being used all over eastern TX!! It's clear that someone from the restaurant took the number and spent $592 on our credit card at 6 different locations. BTW, we live locally. We weren't tourists travelling through the area. read more
