    I'll start by saying the food is great. At least what I've had is. It lost a star for time and friendliness. I've gone multiple times now, once just for chips, queso and a tea. They take what feels like forever no matter what you order. For the above order there was no line and only a few people sitting at tables. It took them nearly 45 min. Maybe they had to melt some cheese. That's the only thing I can figure since I watched as everyone who came in and sat down after me got chips and salsa immediately. I ordered 4 potatoe egg and cheese breakfast tacos the time before and it took almost an hour. For their regulars, they are all smiles. For everyone else they frowned at them, me included and look at me like I am an idiot for perhaps not ordering ahead. Moral of the story, if you're not eating there; order ahead!

    They have enough class to put their logo on each table.

    My daughter and I were in Mathis for a wedding and we had stayed overnight at a hotel in town. We had run into the Mathis H-E-B to get some things and asked some one "local" the best place in town for brunchy food. He quickly said Taqueria Vallarta. Locals usually know the best places to eat and I love Mexican food morning, noon, and night. Taqueria Vallarta serves Jalisco style Mexican food to be honest I've got to educate myself on Jalisco because its delicious. This little restaurant was packed but smelled so good when we walked in. There wasn't a clean empty table but the waitress said they had just been slammed with their morning rush and she quickly cleaned a table for us, brought us chips and salsa. I'm a salsa fanatic and usually will not come back to a place with terrible salsa. It really had great flavor. The menu had so many great options to choose from nothing overly priced. I ordered the Lady Plate it was just over $5 but had plenty to offer - cheese enchiladas, a hearty chalupa and a crispy taco. My food was fresh and full of flavor the tortillas were the best. So good! I just drank water so I cannot comment on any other beverages. My daughter ordered a torta with I believe barbacoa, which she said was the best she'd had in a long time. The waitress was very attentive and checked on us not to terribly bad about bugging us as we enjoyed our food. As we sat there the atmosphere was amazing. The staff was busy helping customers and getting their restaurant back in order they were very quick about it. If I ever have the opportunity to be in the vicinity of Mathis I would definitely stop in.

    Anyone that reads my reviews, knows that I have a criteria that you must meet when it comes to Mexican food in order to garner a five star review. This restaurant was a unique find a night trip back from Corpus Christi on a late Sunday evening when everything else was closed. The chips and salsa are very good the restaurant itself is older but clean the wait staff was very attentive and the menu has many choices. I noticed a couple downers had hamburgers and they look good but I'll stick to what I feel is their best asset I ordered the everything plate. For $7.29 you get a delicious enchilada a very substantial Chalupa or tostada whatever you'd like to call it, a highly seasoned, taco rice and beans plus guacamole. That my friends is the difference between a four-star restaurant in a five-star restaurant. I said it many times before and I'll say it again if you're charging more than eight dollars for a combination plate of Mexican food you have price yourself out of the competition. The food was all very good. I also had a small bowl of Menudo. Enjoy

    Want GREAT, Cheap Mexican Food?!? 5 Stars All the WAY!!! Stopped by on a road trip back from South Padre Island and I gotta say, this place has Hands-Down the Best Mexican food that I've had in a long time! Skip the buffet...the plates are BIG!! The individual tacos are HUGH! They don't skimp out either, the tacos were Loaded Full! Plus everything is homemade from the tortillas to the hot sauce. SIMPLY AMAAAAZZZZED how DELICIOUS everything was!! And Low Prices. I'm gonna make it a new habit to stop by here Every time we go the coast!!
