Taco Tuesday special
Kim Charron L.

Authentic Mexican food in Alvarado! I am from California and this was the first Mexican restaurant. I tried in Texas, have to tell you I was not disappointed. The food was amazing and great service. I only wish their salsa was a little bit spicier, it definitely tasted, homemade and was served in Bottles at the table but for my taste I would've liked it a little bit hotter. This place is on my way home from work and I'm sure I'll be back for another taco Tuesday special night.

Breakfast menu

Taste of Texas meets hole in the wall Mexican joint. Take a moment and tantalize your tastebuds with home town goodness. We needed a quick stop for food that turned into a pause for palatal pleasure. We ordered the breakfast burritos made to order. Spice was nice, and they hit the spot we didn't know we needed. I had the chorizo and my wife had the sausage, and it was worth the detour. The service was great, the place was clean, and the food was great. We will be back.

Bogus receipt

Ordered 4 different orders to go. No sign was posted about a to go order adding gratuity or a certain amount being added to total for having a certain amount of to orders. I order 4 entrees and some thing small on the side. They have the smart system Clover with a large tablet screen and the screen was out or defective so I could not see what and how much the manager was ringing me up. Apparently I pay without seeing what everything costs and they added a 15% gratuity without telling me. On top of that, I added a 15% tip on top of the automated tip I was unaware of and the manager didn't say anything. I ask the same person who rung me up and ask what was the automated gratuity for and she said that anything larger than 4 orders. No sign, no warning, no verbal acknowledgment of that at all. She understood what she did was wrong but refused to admit it. Don't go here. Go to El Rey's across the street. They have better food and better prices!

Barbacoa Taco plate
Clarissa O.

The food is so authentic and delicious!!!! They give you great portions! You will NOT leave hungry! This is my go to spot at least once a week! You have to make sure to try the green sauce and habanero sauce! The service is always amazing!!!! I love the staff! They are always so sweet and kind, and have great recommendations! Best Mexican food in Alvarado!! I have had plenty of dishes, and have never been disappointed!!

Chorizo taco
Kimberly H.

Ordered 5 tacos 2 chorizo 2 pastor and 1 barbacoa and 2 gorditas de chicarrón. The tacos were all soaked in grease and the pastor was flavorless. The barbacoa was also flavorless and cold. The gorditas were fried and did not have cheese. My husband got 2 tacos of carnitas and they didn't even bother to cut it. The salsa was watery and not spicy at all. The horchata didn't taste like horchata. Very disappointed in the quality of food. Did not finish the food opted to throw it out instead

Delicious! I highly recommend the charro beans! The staff was friendly and the service was fast! All day breakfast is a win too

Tacos de fajita and tacos al pastor....all really really good! AND THE BEER IS FREE (I had 2, tipped them nicely).

Always delicious & authentic! I always get their taco special, chicken tortilla soup or their new birria tacos are the best I've had.

I ordered from Taco Bell through Grubhub.So Part of this is Grubhub's fault, but first I could not…read moreorder a combo meal because it kept asking me to pick an option when all options had been picked. Very frustrating. Then I ordered Nachos bell Grande. They have changed them, now they come in a cardboard box, geart for the environment right. The problem is they load the box with chips almost no meat, almost no other ingredients. So basically you are paying for a box of chips with very little toppings because they can hide the fact that they are giving you no topping now. The nacho fries i got were ice cold. Just an all around bad experience.

Hubbers and I were staying at La Quinta (across the highway) and we had already missed the…read morecontinental breakfast. He decided on Taco Bell. "It's just across the street, it'll hit the hunger spot until our event this afternoon..." So I ordered through the app. My usual Mexican pizza and two tacos combo and a couple of supreme tacos for him. Parking was an ease. Typical of most Taco Bell decor and design. My order was almost good and ready to go, just needed the drinks. Bag was sealed and all. (I assumed everything I specifically asked for was inside.) All I was missing were the drinks. So, I waited. And waited. And waited. One of their crew members stared at me for a few secs, then asked, "Is there anything else missing on your order?" "Yes. My drinks." You know that look when the light went on? She had that. Got me my two drinks. With a bag of food on one hand, I figure they'd give me a tray for the drink for easier transport. Nope. So, I asked for one. Then they funny feeling of something telling me my order may not be complete. Got the tray of drinks and made a stop at one of their nearby tables and popped open my bag. Food: complete. What's missing are the sauces I specifically asked for. Because without them, the meal would have been disastrous. They were apologetic, and it was fine. Disaster averted. FOOD: 4. It is what one would expect for Taco Bell. SERVICE: 2.5. One snag is forgivable. Two in one order? No bueno. VALUE: 3.5. PARKING: Not an issue. OVERALL: 3.25. It's a good thing I didn't use the drive thru. Okay first run. I hope that in the future, they double check everything is in the bag right before sealing it. I would hate for customers to go through what I almost did...
