    Queso, salsa, spicy salsa and grilled jalapeños.  Chips very fresh
    Stevie G.

    Found this goldmine while in old downtown Plano. Thank you yelpers. The salsa is so fresh. I asked for a spicer one and Sandra accommodated. It was good. I ordered the Thursday special, chimichanga, rice, beans, sour cream, guacamole and a little salad. So so good. Sandra also surprised me with some grilled jalapeños. So kind. The place is very clean and cute decor. Will Definitely be back.

    House margarita on the rocks

    My hunnay brought us here he had been here before. I opted for the half an order fajita nachos and they were delicious and the portion was right on point with meat and they have a spicy salsa you ask for which is delicious way better then what they offer you at first which is literally just tomato juice with jalapeño and onion. I did have a house margarita and to be honest it was just meh tasted super sour and just wasn't my cup of tea that's the only reason for my 4. I'll go back give another drink a try and see if that will make a difference.

    Why is it mainly tomato???

    Food was full of tomatoes. Fajitas came with some kind of tomato marinade on it.. was gross! Chili con queso was cheese with nothing but tomatoes. I was better off going to Chuy's instead of here. Not worth your money very over priced with no flavor at all!

    Tortilla soup

    Yummy! I took my daughter here for dinner, it was our first time. Staff great. We were greeted the moment we walked in. Cozy little place. My daughter got the sour cream enchilada dinner and said it was delicious. I got the tortilla soup (hot, flavorful) I ordered a side one cheese enchilada with chili con carne, I was not a fan of this. The chili was different from what I am used to. I only took one bite. You may love it. We were served with warm chips and chunky salsa. Delicious Will definitely visit again

    Still amazing! Still very friendly staff! Good food with good proportions to fill you up. This has been our regular dinner place for years and the quality hasn't changed a bit.

    Chips and yummy homemade salsa

    1st visit for lunch. Friendly neighbor Mexican Restaurant wait staff seem to know everyone who came by for lunch. We have driven by many times but closed on Monday and Tuesday. Warm chips and fresh made salsa came to the table and they where delicious. The salsa was some of the best I have eaten. Tiki Hubby and I shared 2 different lunch menus to try. We tried the 3 enchiladas lunch came with one beef, one cheese, and one chicken. and the chili relleno and beef chalupa with beans. Everything was hot and fresh. Red Sauce on cheese enchiladas was a little thin and could have used a punch of spice. Still giving a 5 as the food was so fresh and great price.

    Hmmm. Everything we ate needed salt and that's okay. We added salt to the French fries and quesadilla, the salsa and the chips, the menudo and the Chile Reino. Most of the food was good despite the salt issue, which was easy to fix. We were the only Hispanic people eating at the time. Maybe we just have a high expectation because we've eaten Mexican food our whole lives. We also grew up in California and just moved to Texas and maybe the food just taste a little different. It was fresh food and the owner and staff were amazing. The place is clean. They did vacuum with a small shark vacuum 25% of our meal which was kinda distracting. We did appreciate the effort to keep things clean. We needed napkins but didn't ask but I wish they would give a stack with the meal.. (we have kids) lol.. I was asked 5x if everything was good within 30 min that was good and got 3 refills on coffee, which tasted fresh. They cleared the plates that were empty quickly to make us comfortable. The menudo meat was over cooked and needed some pigs feet in the pot to add flavor. Maybe a splash of caldo de pollo or SALT. There was allot of meat and I didn't feel like they cheated using too much Hominy. I'm a menudo snob and literally menudo is life for me. I don't mean to be critical! From 1-10 I give it a 5.5. The kids quesadilla was loaded with cheese and for 4.99 I was impressed with the amount of fries they added to the plate. The kids enchilada was meh.... The sauce was bland and average. I give the red sauce a 1 out of 10. The Customerservice was a 10 out of 10. The female that works here is amazing she's maybe the owners daughter.

    Regular and spicy salsas - yeah, we put a pretty good dent in it before I took the photo

    What a great start to a Sunday! Tino's Too is much bigger inside than it looks driving by. We used to eat at Tino's at the mall, then maybe once here but hadn't done so in years. I forgot how much I enjoyed it. We were greeted by multiple employees as we entered and were seated, and had chips and salsa immediately. Miss Sandra was our server, and she was great. I ordered a frozen margarita, husband ordered a michelada - both were very good. He ordered a chile relleno with enchiladas, rice and beans. He enjoyed them. I had enchiladas with the spicy chili on top, rice and beans. All were piping hot and very good, the first bite of enchilada took me down memory lane to the mall, I think the recipes haven't changed a lot! Our chips and salsa were so good, and once I ordered the spicy, Miss Sandra brought me a spicier salsa, also SO good. She also brought us some grilled and spiced jalapenos - delicious! I had a second margarita, and we just relaxed and enjoyed ourselves. We'll be back!!!

    Long overdoing for return visit

They brought a large basket of perfectly crispy, warm chips with salsa and took my order. I got the #15 lunch special which is your choice of two enchiladas (I got sour cream chicken), rice and beans. The food was served quickly and at the perfect temperature. My enchiladas were bursting with chicken and the sour cream sauce was the perfect compliment. The rice was excellent as well. Even the iced tea is great, and featured a legit lemon slice. They have a full bar which I'll be trying on my next visit and two large TVs set where you can see one or both from any seat in the dining room. I told my server she's going to get sick of seeing me because I'll be here at least twice a week! Service was excellent by the way. My tea was even refilled without having to ask. It was a 10 star meal!

We entered and no one says anything, lady came in after us waiting, shoving us to see if there is a list for waiting... like girl were the only two people in line. We got sat and the workers are very friendly, no problem there. Chips were good and came out crisp. I ordered the two taco plate. Taco shell was very stale, was very sad. The ground beef wasn't that good, chicken taco was better (surprisingly). Rice and beans were decent. Overall, didn't hate it here, but also not that great. There was a lot of people here and a lot of people waiting to be seated as well.

We were very pleasantly surprised. It's even better in my opinion. The people are very warm and friendly. The food is really delicious. I love that they bring not only good salsa with their fresh hot chips, but also a tomatillo sauce and a black bean dip. We've now eaten there several times. The taco meat has a nicely charred flavor. The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.

I ordered the nachos with carne asada. They came on a huge platter with dollops of guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo in the middle.

The carne asada was diced small and cooked to perfection...crispy outside and tender inside with not a bit of fat or gristle. They were so good I couldn't stop!
