    Puppy cup for the win!
    Denise D.

    A new find on my search for great tacos!. I took a drive to Stillhouse Hollow Lake to watch the sun set, and on the way out, Taco Cowboy caught my eye. I whipped into the drive thru since I had my dog with me, and ordered up a couple of tacos. The server manning the window offered me a puppy cup of whipped cream for my dog which he greatly appreciated! I had a carnitas soft taco and a pastor soft taco. Both were regular sized, and had excellent texture and flavor.im looking forward to returning for a dine in experience and to try some other menu items. The prices were good too! $2.99 each for the tacos!

    The reviews made this place sound great, so my husband and I were excited to check them out. The atmosphere was bright and colorful. There were only two other tables when we went, so service and seating were easy to get. Neither my husband nor I were expecting plastic cutlery or disposable plates, but it didn't really matter. The chips were good, and the salsa was okay. We like spicy salsa, though. We got the mini taco plate as a kind of appetizer. It was good but needed more acid, like lime or pico. The rice had good flavor, but some of it was undercooked. I wasn't all that interested in the refried beans, so I never had much of that. I liked my husband's chicken enchilada more than my beef, as the meat was a tad dry. We were confused about signing up for membership when we ordered drinks. It wasn't explained well. The food wasn't bad, and the service seemed to truly care about our experience, but overall, neither of us is rearing to return. There are other restaurants in the area we enjoyed more. This is one of those times I wish I could give half stars, but I'll round up because of the service.

    Me and my best friend Whitley decided to stop at this place on a Sunday March 3, 2024 around 4 to 5pm, and I would like to say I would like to start off by talking about our server Maria, she was so amazing, sweet and kind and very helpful. Also, she gave me a little bit of a backstory of the restaurant and I loved that. Secondly, the food that is, there is to die, for I've never had any good authentic Mexican food. It was like a literally a hidden jewel. We just happened to stumble upon it whenever we were leaving the river and decided to stop to grab a bite to eat on our way home. If you haven't been to this place, then I highly suggest you go and check them out.

    Finally got to try the breakfast tacos ! Delicious ! We got 2 Bacon egg cheese tacos, the kids waffle plate and I also had a steak egg and cheese breakfast taco and one el pastor taco with onion and cilantro ! The steak egg cheese taco was amazing ! I tried to take a good pic of the tacos but They were just wrapped in foil and I couldn't get a good Yelp worthy pic! Again, we'll be back taco cowboy ! Oh yea we got a horchata too! Mmm

    Great meals Good prices. Very friendly staff It's a little bit out-of-the-way, but the dining room has Lots of room!!

    Sad ass beef burrito

    It's cute, and the fact servers are kind. The food is really mediocre and everything comes on like fast food plates etc. The "queso" is either velveeta or ballpark cheese which is super disappointing when you want to go to a Mexican restaurant for the queso. Salsa was good but nothing to write home about. Pretty sure the chips are store bought bags. The refried beans are to liquidy and bland. Chicken texano was good. Decent seasoning and cooked well. But again not really a WOW this is good.

    This was the first time that we checked out this restaurant in person and decided to dine in on a Sunday afternoon. When you drive up the place looks like an abandoned hole in the wall dump. For starters the first thing we noticed was a big Bullet Hole in a window with a crack sticking out from where the impact was that goes across the entire window and a junker car that was lifted up and had a missing tire and wheel assembly. If it wasn't for other customers park there we would have assumed that the place was abandoned. Not very safe or appealing looking but we still went inside. We had good experiences with doordash in the past so we wanted to see how good it was in person and we were very disappointed. They served most of the food on disposable containers in the menudo was served in a normal ceramic type Bowl. The portions have really shrunken compared to delivery that we got in the past and the food was mediocre at best. The portion size of the chips is a joke. It's like a toddler size portion of chips divided up for three people makes them look very cheap. The only good thing were the mini tacos that my daughter ordered the meat was very fresh and had a pleasant grilled taste to it. No offer of dessert and only checked on us once or twice. No communication or offer of the ticket and I had to figure out where to pay myself. The table to our right had way better service and they were very attentive with them and offered them about five times the amount of chips that they gave us including Chips To Go but did not offer us the same. I hope they improve and get back to the caliber that they had when they first opened because this was really a disappointment. We still tip the server 20% of our check because she was really polite but she was not very attentive and consistent with the service that she gave other people and the food was a disappointment overall.

Asked for my eggs over medium and they were EXACTLY perfectly cooked. Tater tots were absolutely delicious also, I recommend them 10/10. The friend I was eating with is gluten-free and dairy-free. They were able to pick from a good amount of options, and they got the avocado toast on gluten-friendly bread, no dairy, and they loved it. Atmosphere is very fun and retro, though since it is a small building, it can get pretty loud if busy. Obviously not much staff can do about that though, and crowds is a good sign for buisness! But if you're noise-sensitive, maybe request to sit away from the main room, or bring headphones. Service was very cordial, we got seated very quickly and served quickly as well! I didn't get coffee this time, but I have gotten a latte before and it was phenomenal. Overall great breakfast-for-lunch joint. My only complaint is I wish they were open later in the day for dinner too! Will definitely be coming back. Eat local!

    A Wonderful Evening at Dead Fish Grill…read more We went to Dead Fish Grill last night with friends, and everything was absolutely top-notch! The food was fantastic, and the appetizers were almost enough for a full meal. Everything looked so delicious that we decided to try several different options--and nothing disappointed! The beet salad was amazing, and the catfish bites were absolutely delicious. Our waitress was wonderful, and the atmosphere was lively, fun, and welcoming. I highly recommend Dead Fish Grill and am already looking forward to the many fun events on the horizon! What a great evening with great friends!

From the moment you walk in, the service is impeccable, no matter how busy they are. It's a symphony of flavors in every dish, orchestrated by chefs who truly care about their craft. Having dined from coast to coast and even across continents, I can attest that the culinary talent here is exceptional. One common letdown at seafood restaurants is the hesitance to season and enhance flavors, but not here! The chefs are not just cooking; they're passionately crafting dishes that explode with taste. Take the Cajun pasta, for example. At first glance, it seemed like it might be a bit lacking in flavor, but the moment my wife and I took our first bite, it was a flavor explosion that left us both speechless! I'm pretty sure I could enjoy that dish for the rest of my life! The Rainbow Trout was nothing short of perfection, the catfish was divine, and the fried calamari had us coming back for more. My wife and I have even started a fun challenge to see if we can find a single mediocre dish on the menu, but I don't think we'll ever succeed! Hats off to the team at Dead Fish! This restaurant is an absolute gem, and each visit leaves us wanting more. If you're looking for a place that serves exceptional seafood with a punch of flavor, look no further. Well done, Dead Fish!

The dining room has nice wooden tables with matching chairs, and plays music at a respectable level (classic hits). It gives millennial burger restaurant without all the pretentiousness. I had the Thursday special, fish and chips. I'm a sucker for cod, but I think it was well battered and not over-fried. Wish there had been a little malt vinegar to go with it, but I enjoyed the lemon on it. The fries (or chips for those across the pond) were well seasoned with salt, pepper, and something else that I couldn't identify but it tasted very nice. Also ordered a signature cocktail, Texas Storm. It had ginger beer, dark rum, and blackberry syrup. Quite a heavy pour from the bartender which is much appreciated. Definitely coming back.

We had a reservation but still had to wait 20 mins outside. Not a big deal except there is zero room to wait where they are calling customers up and where they are checking in. Very expensive, so I just figured food and service would be better is all. Read a lot of yelp reviews before doing my own. It looks like the issue is common.
