As usual, I had the cheese enchilada dinner with rice and beans. (Added a third enchilada.) I know it's a basic staple of Mexican restaurants, but I'm a simple guy. It was delicious, especially since I was famished. Service was good as well. Don't miss out on this place when you're in Yoakum.

recently had the chance to eat at Emiliano Mexican Grill, located at 401 Lott St, and I have to say…read moreit was a really good experience. This spot came highly recommended by locals, and I can see why. The flavors were rich, fresh, and pretty close to authentic Mexican food -- the kind that makes you feel like you're eating in a small-town restaurant in Mexico. The seasoning was spot-on, the portions were generous, and everything tasted homemade. The staff was welcoming and friendly, adding to the warm atmosphere. If you're in the area and craving genuine Mexican flavors, Emiliano Mexican Grill is definitely worth a visit.

Hidden in a little town, not too far from the Shiner Brewery is this little gem! We found it threw…read moreYelp/Google of places nearby that had some good reviews, and I am so glad we stopped here. The place is quite large when you walk in, it looks like a smaller house from the outside. When we walked in, someone came from behind the counter to greet us and told us to choose where ever we liked, since it was mid-day there was plenty to choose from. When we sat, we were asked our drink order and I ordered a bowl of queso! Which is a white queso!! We were hungry, so as soon as it hit the table, the I dip, you dip, we dip, began!! The salsa is one of the best I'd had in a while. You could tell it was fresh, and had just a little kick in and and the chips were nice and warm, just like I like em! I opted for the tacos with 2 bistec y 2 al pastor! I asked if they did grilled piña for the pastor, and they didn't, I was sad, but not sad when the plate arrived!!! The tacos were plenty filled with lots of meat, and the side fixin's of onions y cilantro. I asked for refried over the regular, because in looking at the photos, I knew the beans were going to be amazing. I started eating immediately! The food was sooo good...the bistec was flavored just right, and so was the al pastor. I'm not sure which I liked more. And that combo with the beans. The only thing I wish I had done differently is add cheese, bc my friend or ordered the taco plate had gotten it on his, and it looked devine! Great stop and if ever in this part of Texas again, will be coming back by!

My Yelp friends and I came here after having a drink at Shiner brewery nearby…read more This place is unassuming, looks like a house that got converted to a restaurant. Parking right out front. The place was empty upon walking in, except one table that had a party of 3 was occupied, they left soon after. It looks like it would be a place for family party that you could rent out easily. Service- was good, I didnt catch the young ladys name. She took a while considering it was only 1 table of us, but it was ok. She answered our questions and explained items. But wasn't what I would call warm or engaging. Food- we had chips/salsa to start. Salsa tasted from scratch. And we also orderd the blanco queso to share. I love queso so no issues there. My entree I had the shrimp enchiladas. Since I wanted red sauce and not green sauce, she suggested to get the chiptole sauce enchiladas instead. She said it wasn't spciy, but I found it was more of a kick than I expected. But when eating it along with the beans/rice it was fine and cooled out. Overall, easy mom and pop family restaurant.

Good queso and tasty hot sauce, also. This trip I ordered the cheeseburger(add jalapeños) and fries. I was not disappointed! Meat was hot, cheese melted, and the fries were crispy and fresh from the fryer. Jalapeños added just the right zip to the burger. I'd definitely go back for any of the menu items, but the burger will be at the top of my list. Sweet tea was spot on, too! Give it a try!

Definitely not a cookie cuter Tex-Mex July 10, 2020 update. I added menu photos. Now they are open in evenings beginning Wednesday through Saturday. Service is getting better.

Complimentary chips & salsa were served, salsa was good, chips a bit too greasy. I decided to order the lunch special of the day , Chicken Fajitas. Lunch special included the iced tea.

ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING -- BEST MEXICAN FOOD ANYWHERE…read more If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. I've traveled all over Texas and across the U.S., and I can say without hesitation that Las Cocinas Mexican Grill is hands-down the BEST Mexican restaurant I have ever been to -- and that includes all of Austin. My family and I come here several times a week, even though we don't live close by. That alone should tell you how incredible this place is. Must-try favorites (do NOT skip these): The Margaritas - Very strong and absolutely perfect. Order them half & half (half on the rocks, half frozen). Trust me -- you'll thank me later. Nachos Al Carbon (Appetizer) - The beef fajita meat is out of this world. Tender, flavorful, and unforgettable. Beef Fajitas Cremosas (Entrée) - Get them with EXTRA sun-dried tomatoes. Oh. My. God. I have never had anything like this in my life, and it's something I crave several times a week. Stuffed Jalapeños - So good I sometimes order them as my entire meal. And the onion rings they're served on? Easily the best onion rings I've ever had anywhere. Beyond the food, the staff is absolutely amazing. From the moment you walk in, they make you feel like family -- warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy you're there. That kind of service is rare, and it's one of the many reasons this place is so special to us. And yes -- I always forget to take pictures of my food because I eat it before I remember to take photos for a review . That should tell you everything you need to know about how good it is. We are incredibly thankful for Las Cocinas. It's not just our favorite Mexican restaurant -- it's our favorite restaurant, period, and the best in the entire area by a mile. Perfect in every way.
