    Its our first time here and they were about to Close when we drop in. The lady said that ok we will stay open until you all get done. So my wife & I Ordered two Menudo and some fruit. Since we're both from the Rio Grande Valley. O man let me tell you both things were so good for price $21.97; They just open a year ago so it's a small Restaurant hopefully they they will grow as they go.

    I'm updating my review and lowering from 4 stars to 2 stars. Something has changed in the last few months. The quality has gone way down. The cheese is awful and the meat is very oily, more than it should be. I had only tried the breakfast tacos and they were good but had been very greasy and hard the last few times. Today I ordered the torta, I wish I hadn't. First I asked the man is this REAL fajita meat (skirt steak) he said yes. It's NOT fajita meat, I don't know what it was but it's ALL fat. Look below and see all the meat I couldn't eat. It was the worst torta I've ever had !!! My hubby ordered the tamales and almost choked they were terrible. Will never go here again !!!!!!!!!!!

    I was summoned to Alvin Texas today by my son and family to try a new Mexican restaurant. This…read moreplace is on the north side of 35 next to Captains D's. This place had been a different restaurant at one time, but when Covid hit they had to close their doors. After a while emerged this new restaurant. This place was completely redon inside and out with a new and beautiful Decore. They open at 9:00 on Saturday & Sunday for breakfast and stay open till 11:00 on these 2 nights. After we were seated, and our drinks were brought then came the salsa & chips along with a large Queso, and then we ordered, one of my grandsons getting the Burrito Loco along with my son, while the other one got the garlic shrimp with rice and sautéed vegetables, daughter got the Fajita enchilada plate along with all the extras, and I got my favorite soup, Caldo De Res. There were no complaints from any one about their food & as for me, the trip down here was worth it. The next time it will be for their breakfast buffet, but for now everyone was very pleased with their lunch, so please stop by and have a great meal.

    Decided to stop here for a quick Fathers day lunch since we were all craving Mexican. The place was…read moresurprisingly empty and we were seated right away. Shortly after we were seated, our server came by to get our drink order and brought chips and salsa and a bean dip. Everything was so good which made for a really strong start for the meal! My sister in law and I both ordered margaritas. She ordered the Organic margarita and I ordered the Mango Habanero one. I thought my margarita was way too sweet but my sister in law loved hers. For my meal I ordered the three street tacos plate with chicken. This came with rice and charro beans on the side. The charro beans were absolutely BOMB. Probably my favorite part of the whole meal. The chicken in the tacos was also really good. Very juicy and flavorful. Everyone at the table really enjoyed the food. I was surprised to see the negative reviews on here. We had a really positive experience with the food, service, everything! Will definitely come back next time I am in town!
