Probably a mixture of not too many options in the area and that they are good. Once seated they bring complimentary chips and salsa. I must say those chips are like crack. Very good. I also ordered some guacamole which was also very good.The first night I had the Mexican steak as recommended by the waiter which was excellent. Huge portion so I had to take half of it to go. The second night I had Tacos Locos, again a recommendation by the waiter. Again very good! Overall everything I had was well above the average Mexican restaurant. The one thing I would not recommend getting here are the salads. They seemed pretty weak. All iceberg lettuce and a bunch a shredded cheese on top. But then again who goes to a Mexican joint for a salad!

Wrap me up in this burrito everyday... the sequel!…read more As we knew we'd be driving through Childress, we planned our timing around making sure we could stop here for breakfast. Again, we opted for the combination burrito which had sausage, chorizo, bacon, potatoes, cheese and beans all wrapped up in a HOMEMADE tortilla. The tortilla is one of my favorite parts as it's chewy, soft texture and slightly earthy, mildly sweet taste complements the filling to a T. You have the option of red or green (or both) salsas on the side. They are smaller containers of salsa so I'd get two of the kind you want. Fair warning, the green is a one-two-punch with heat! Again, it was BURRITO-FUL! As I stated in my first review, the staff is just the kindest! We had a great little convo with them before being handed our breakfast burritos.

They should have spread out the tables in all the rooms . So everyone could have been seated when they came in instead of waiting 25-30 min. Then after we ordered. On a scale of 1 to 10.

We stopped at Mejia's Bakery while passing through town looking for a quick lunch. At first glance,…read morethe place almost looked closed--it's very unassuming from the outside and located in an older strip-style row of storefronts that gives off a bit of an old-west small-town vibe. Don't let that fool you though; once you step inside it's clear this is a very authentic Mexican spot. The interior is long and narrow. On the right side when you walk in there are bakery cases filled with a wide variety of traditional Mexican pastries and baked goods. On the left there's some seating and an ice cream area, and further toward the back there's a larger seating section that looks like it's used for their buffet (which we were told they offer on weekends). We visited on a Wednesday, so we ordered from the counter instead. The people working there were very friendly and welcoming, and the prices were very reasonable. I ended up ordering a cheese quesadilla with fries. The fries were actually excellent--crispy, salty, and exactly what you'd hope for. The quesadilla itself was okay. In fairness, this is clearly a place that specializes in more traditional Mexican dishes, and I probably didn't order the thing they're best known for. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food and pastries, this seems like a great local spot and it's definitely worth checking out. If your taste leans more toward American-style Mexican food, you might find the menu a little different than what you're used to. Overall, a friendly local bakery and restaurant with very fair prices and a lot of traditional options.

Onion rings were of the frozen variety, not bad but in a place like this hand dipped fresh would be so much better. The frito pie was yum! What was really impressive though is how friendly every employee we encountered was. Also super impressive were the young ladies working there, when not busy with customers, they were wiping things down *behind the counter, the drive thru window inside and outside) and just generally keeping the place nice. It has been a long, long time since I've seen this kind of detailed upkeep and busyness by workers in a service business. Great training by the owner and these young ladies will make wonderful employees as they move on to other careers because someone took the time to teach them how to be good employees.... compliments from a hiring manager of many young people who lack this kind of discipline and attention to detail.
