A former colleague recommended Tacos El Plebe and I'm so happy I took his recommendation. It was a…read morefabulous meal on my trip to the RGV. The inside is really simple, picnic tables and turf. They have a beautiful outdoor patio, but it was a bit warm for a Midwest girl on my visit. I had the El Plebe and Taco el Campo as well as a classic margarita. They also brought each of a small cup of beans when we sat down. That was comfort food in styrofoam. Service started out strong but as it got busier, our server was a little less attentive. No worries though--we enjoyed the crowd and chatting.

The foot-long quesadilla blended tender carne asada, two cheeses, onions, spices and other flavors into a buttery, crispy tortilla. Absolutely delicious! The frijoles were also fantastic- great blend of lime and broth. The service was impeccable. My waitress was knowledgeable of the menu, kind and attentive. I also loved the atmosphere, they had the World Cup playing and it added to the good vibes.

The plates are just what you would hope for and expect for the price. Tacos Kissi is not focused on aesthetics, it is all great food at low prices. I would go back again and again.

Despite my sister not requesting for them to be replaced, the waiter brought them over shortly after bringing out the initial meal and excused herself for the mistake. The music is great, seats are comfortable, and restrooms are very clean. Can't wait to go back.

Yes, as others have said, the service was slow, but we assumed it was because everything was being home-made in the kitchen. I often judge a restaurant by its morning coffee, and the coffee here is very good. I suppose my only complaint, and this is a small one: the refried beans that came with my huevos rancheros plate were runny & tasted like they came from a can. We will return--nice breakfast spot!

I'm a huge migas fan and never thought to try chilaquiles. This place did not disappoint. I added eggs, chorizo and avocado with half green and half red sauce. I was surprised to get each adding in an individual stack. I managed to get my egg yolk over the avocado and chorizo. The food was really good, just not what I expected. The flautas de papa were a great buy. Instead of using a corn or flour tortilla to mop up my plate, I was able to use the flauta and with the papa in it, they were like little sponges soaking up all the leftovers

We finally ordered--only to receive chicken fajitas instead of beef. Sent them back, waited again. Strike two. When the corrected order arrived? The fajitas were completely bland. No seasoning. The sweetbread--crispy on the outside, yes--but equally flavorless. And then we realized they'd forgotten the beans entirely. Those charro beans? The most tasteless I've ever had in my life. Strike three. The ambiance was nice (though overpriced for a mall spot), but the food was a shadow of what I experienced here a year ago. Such a shame--Mexican cuisine should sing with spice and care. This was a silent, disappointing echo.

This place is on the mid range prices for food, but the staffing and environment makes up for it.
