A former colleague recommended Tacos El Plebe and I'm so happy I took his recommendation. It was a…read morefabulous meal on my trip to the RGV. The inside is really simple, picnic tables and turf. They have a beautiful outdoor patio, but it was a bit warm for a Midwest girl on my visit. I had the El Plebe and Taco el Campo as well as a classic margarita. They also brought each of a small cup of beans when we sat down. That was comfort food in styrofoam. Service started out strong but as it got busier, our server was a little less attentive. No worries though--we enjoyed the crowd and chatting.

The foot-long quesadilla blended tender carne asada, two cheeses, onions, spices and other flavors into a buttery, crispy tortilla. Absolutely delicious! The frijoles were also fantastic- great blend of lime and broth. The service was impeccable. My waitress was knowledgeable of the menu, kind and attentive. I also loved the atmosphere, they had the World Cup playing and it added to the good vibes.

I love coming to Umiya for their lunch special whenever I have the day off. Their all-you-can-eat…read moreoption is a great value at $20 and most of the sushi tastes fresh. Just be aware that the lunch special does not include the sashimi/nigiri options. The interior has great lighting and it is very lively. It's not too noisy and there's plenty of parking around the corner as well. My main complaint about Umiya is that the service here is hit or miss. Sometimes I would get a waiter/waitress who would constantly check-up on me and ask about what I wanted to order. Other times, the waiter/waitress would rarely come by my table to take my order. If there could be some more consistency in the service, then that would greatly enhance the customer all-you-can-eat experience. In regards to the food, I highly recommend getting a cup of their miso soup since it's not too salty and has a good amount of tofu and seaweed. It has a good balance of savoriness. I highly recommend trying their rainbow roll, yummy roll, and shaggy dog roll too. The rolls are made to order and they have always come out fresh during my visits. I haven't had a bad tasting roll Don't forget to get some ice cream too for dessert because their green tea ice cream has a nice natural earthy tone to its flavor profile.

Our daughter's food came out before ours ! Perfect! They fell in love with the Empanadas! As for my wife and I, we ordered Bife con Hueso. Words can't describe how delicious it was, with the chimi churi ! Cooked to perfection, with the right amount of flavor. Mad props to the chef. And presentation 10/10.

We all ordered meats which prices range between $30s to $60s (insane for no sides) and I gotta say I've had better steak at a food truck. We also ordered the Chorizo Argentino ( it was the sice of my finger). Let me not even mention the pound of salad constantly being shoved down your throat. We said no to the salad and it still came with it. Also $8 for a small dish of fries? And no sides come included with the meats?! You are forced to pay for sides if you don't want your $58 dollar steak alone. PS: dont tell them to cook the meats any different than your peers because they will cook them all the same. The server was nice at least and I felt bad for her being alone.
