    Tortas taste like a white person made them and there very flat and dry. Didn't give me any green sauce and I asked for extra. Cut my torta in half but left the kids menu torta a full ass torta. I also didn't get my horchata. I will continue to get my Mexican food from taco trucks instead.

    Huarache
    Susie C.

    The place is really clean and nice, they are really welcoming too. The only downside I see is that when I ordered a huarache they didn't told me they had salsa on it and it was sooo spicy I couldn't even eat it. I ordered a carrot juice with orange and it was delicious!! My experience was good except for the salsa if you love salsa you are going to love the Huaraches here

    La Tejana Torta

    My first time eating tortas here and it won't be the last one, I got a Tejana Torta and my husband got a pambazo and both were delicious and complementary they offer salsas and they are delicious as well, we even both the salsas to take them home. If you're looking for authentic Mexican tortas this is the place, you won't regret it. Enjoy

    Torta pobre

    Pinches tortas pobres por eso le cambiaron el nombre antes eran la llardas antes si estaban buenas ahora quieren vender la carne de un taco en una torta y page 17 dollar por era especial

    Very impressed the place is small but clean and you instantly feel Like your in a dive in Mexico. People are nice and attentive! The food was perfect just the right amount of everything!!!

    SO MUCH FAT, MORE BEANS AND LETTICE THAN MEAT. There's only like 4 pieces of meat in there be serious.

    It was so bad, I'm not the type to leave bad reviews ANYWHERE but this was so BAD.!!!! There was so much fat, the meat wasn't cooked right, didn't taste good, more lettuce that actual meat.!!! $35 FOR 3 FREAKING TORTAS. RIDICULOUS! Never going back, if I could give it 0 starts I would.

    Excellent tacos !! Homemade tacos sauces were great. Service was good too. Better then average antojitos shop. Tortas look good too, will be back.

    Not gonna lie, I found this little local spot with low standards. Man was I proved wrong. Great spot. Interior was decorated very nicely and was clean giving off a very authentic atmosphere. Great selection of food to choose from and everything was fresh. Would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

    I came out on Cinco de Mayo craving some Mexican food, of course on the special day, right? I was also craving a burger and didn't want an American one, though maybe it would have tasted a little bit better. Anyways, I came into the restaurant and wasn't greeted. It was one person sitting and eating his torta. I began to view the giant menu and especially the tortas. Note here: if you don't eat pork or prefer other meats than pork: this wouldn't be the best spot for you because most of the tortas have pork meat in it which was a disappointment for me. I asked the lady in the front if they had any tortas with just chicken or beef; and she wasn't able to assist me properly because she couldn't understand English or what I was saying. I was honestly just about to leave until I considered to give this restaurant a chance: I ended up ordering the La Dieta (Vegetarian) torta with no meat just cheese, avocado, tomatoes, no pickles, no mayo, no ketchup nor mustard, shredded lettuce, it also came with jalapenos and some red watery sauce. Now, there is definitely a language barrier issue here: I can understand if you are Hispanic and speak the language, but what about the others that don't speak the language? I mean, seriously there should be a regulation that businesses and restaurants should have at least one person who speaks the primary language of America which is English. It didn't take no time for them to bring out my meal: at about less than 5 mins my food was out. The meal just torta was $6. For $6, I was really hoping that this Mexican burger was to be filled with flavor and yumminess, instead it was beyond gross. The torta was soggy everything was mushed together; the white queso was hard and wouldn't melt when I warmed it in the microwave. (I had to re-warm it because it was lukewarm when they gave it to me) The tomato still had the middle part (where the stem would be) in it; they failed to cut that part off. The lettuce was very mushy and very gross; it looked like slop literally. It didn't seem like they took the time to prepare the torta. It was absolutely no flavor nor taste; very bland and that is pretty rare to me since its Mexican food which would normally be filled with flavor and spices. The bread didn't have a flavor either usually breads are soft and has a seasonings to it; this one nope not at all. I'm sure even if it was just veggie torta then it should not taste like that; I've had American burgers where it was turkey, black bean, or veggie burgers and wow they were good; but this one being Mexican and a burger--it failed big time. The service I can't get angry for because that lady spoke Spanish and I spoke English; I just wish she would at least learned the English language before moving or coming to Texas. Oh and lots of parking; it is next to the comedy club off of 45/S and Fuqua.

    One of the best Mexican food, they have friendly people, tasty food

    One of the best Mexican Food i have ever eat , fresh food, good service and we will definitely come back here

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!

Service was remarkable and very friendly from the host to the cleaning staff. Food was delicious. I really appreciated the creative flavors that were inspired by authentic Mexican cuisine. Standouts were the guacamole and wagyu carne asada, but everything was fantastic. I loved the Clara cocktail and enjoyed learning about the process to create it. It is clear that there was care and attention behind each menu item. Also, the pace of the food being brought out was evenly paced, which I appreciate, and our server gave us just the right amount of attentiveness. We celebrated my husband's birthday here, and they sent out a tres leches with a candle on it. Very kind and very delicious dessert. Usually not a big fan of tres leches, but this one was not overwhelmingly soaked in condensed milk, and it has a very fresh tasting peach (seasonal) puree drizzled on top. We will most definitely return.

We ordered the breakfast burrito and the duck carnitas. We added barbacoa to the burrito, and it was honestly the definition of comfort food. It was EXTREMELY greasy though, so I ended up eating it with a fork and knife. If I had been home alone... I probably would've just shoved the whole thing in my mouth. I couldn't not order the duck carnitas. It came on a sope, which is basically my definition of the perfect Mexican brunch. It was really yummy, and I especially loved the salsa that came with it. My only real critique is that the portions felt a little on the smaller side. Either bump them up a bit or add a small side, because I definitely could've eaten a little more.
