El Itacate is one of my favorite places in the RGV for Mexican and Salvadoran food. There are…read moremultiple locations. This one is in a small shopping center next to Sam's Club on the NW corner of 10th and Trenton. The facilities are still relatively new, everything looks clean. They have a nice dining room but also offer take-out. They are only open for breakfast and lunch, closing at 3:30 PM. Their menu has a good variety of breakfasts, from chilaquiles, omelets, classics like huevos rancheros, huevos divorciados, huevos a la mexicana, norteño breakfast of machacado (dried beef) and eggs, molletes, pancakes, and more. Their lunch offerings include a variety of salvadoran pupusas, caldo Tlalpeño, the jaliciense carne en su jugo; skillets of chicharrón pensado en salsa, frijoles con "veneno" (chorizo), melted cheese; various tacos from flautas, tacos and la plancha, tacos Llorarás (jalapeño relleno and birria), gorditas, enchiladas, and more. They also have a children's menu. They often have promotional specialty items like tortas de chilaquiles or tortas ahogadas which I have yet to try because I keep ordering the incredible tacos Llorarás. The service has always been exceptional whenever I have gone. Their staff is friendly and efficient. Place your order at the counter and pay up front (there is a jar for tips), and they bring your food to your table. Their drinks range from bottled soda (no soda fountain) to aguas frescas: Jamaica or a refreshing limonada with cucumber. The dining room has half booths (padded bench along one wall, chairs on the other side of the table, or standard tables and chairs. This makes it easy to accommodate wheelchairs if needed. Prices are a bit higher than a burger fast food place, but less than a chain sit-down restaurant. For the food quality you get it's a great price. They have plenty of parking, and restrooms (his and hers) are clean and well maintained. My only complaint is I wish they could extend their hours and offer dinner as well!

For a small startup that serves only Breakfast and Brunch this place is the real deal. The look and feel of the restaurant shows they prioritize the customer and not the other way around. Keep up the good work, we will be back for more.

I ordered 3 different tortas to try out: The Milanesa torta, Bistec torta, and the Cubano torta. The tortas were made with freshly made toasted bread, and filled with a generous amount of meat. I highly recommend ordering the Cubano which was my favorite of the three tortas I ordered. It was a combination of milanesa, bistec, chorizo, and a thin slice of deli sandwich ham, topped with avocado and cheese! I sorely regret not getting pics of the food~ we just got way too excited the second we unwrapped our food and just ate it all up!! The only downside to ordering the tortas to-go was that their red and green salsas are not included with your order. They charge 1$ for 3 salsas which will come in tiny solo dressing cups. Anyways, check Delicias out for a great torta!

I went for lunch and had a regular hamburger with french fries and a soda (can) for near $11. I don't mind paying for an $11 burger...but give me some quality meat folks. I will be honest...it felt like the low-grade quality patty available at stores that has heart mixed into it. It had a really soft texture to it...and no flavor to it. The buns were barely toasted... They give you the condiments so you can dress the burger yourself...but the bottles have no tops to them. On my ketchup bottle, on the tip, there was a dried up seed from who knows what. I can say I added plenty of ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise to my burger...but none of those flavors came through. On the bright side...they gave me a side of beans even though I ordered a burger. The beans were tasty...and the fries were crisp and piping hot. But every time I poured ketchup on them, the dried up seed on the bottle kept staring at me. As far as service...I was the only one there during that time. The waitress took my order... brought out my food...and see you later. She was replaced with another one, and the new one didn't even bother to check on me. I don't mind paying $11 for a nice juicy burger...but it's definitely not here.

We had more onion and bell pepper than what you want on your tacos. The papa was your average, nothing special nothing great. Our total was $35dlls for two people !! Honestly for tacos that's a lot. Ohhh and if you decide to go, make sure to say no to the beans that they " offer" when you are about to sit down. Those are not complimentary and they don't tell you that they will be charged until you get the bill. You are talking about a small little cup of beans for about $2. And they aren't that great. If you want to use the restroom, make sure to take someone with you. The restrooms are outside way in the back of the restaurant where it is dark and shady.
