    We'd driven by this place a few times, and decided to stop in tonight for dinner. So glad we did!…read more We were greeted by Dana, who was also our server. She was fantastic - brought things quickly and got everything right, and made sure to check on us frequently. We thought the margaritas were a little over priced, but understood once they came out - they're HUGE and quite strong. One was more than enough. The food was also great. It came out fast, and everything was cooked perfectly and very tasty. The inside of the restaurant is also lovely. Whoever picked the decor and color scheme did a fantastic job. Our only complaint is a minor one: there were several flies that we had to continuously swat away while we were eating. They might want to put up a trap somewhere hidden to keep the pests at bay. Other than that, great experience! Definitely coming back and would recommend to others.

    It always pains me to leave lower reviews but the food we got was less than edible. We ordered to…read morego and the food was ready fast (less than 15min) but once it got home the odd smell was the first thing to hit us. We got chicken nachos, carne asada and chicken enchiladas with "special cheese sauce" which ended up being processed cheese melted on top. The chicken on the nachos was chewy, the tortillas in the enchiladas were so gummy they would stick to the roof of your mouth, the carne asada was rubber and the rice included in all the meals had a ghastly feet smell. The beans and the guac we got were good but overall very disappointing considering the prices at this place. Unfortunately we won't be back.

    Always hit the spot. Highly recommend. Good deals. Attached to gas station but it's a vibe here…read more Has some outdoor seating.

    Don't let those gas pumps outside fool you!…read more I once again found myself in Rowlett visiting friends and this was the first place Jerry took me for lunch. When he said these were the best gas station tacos he wasn't lying! Open 24/7, Twisted Trompo is a gas station Mexican restaurant that specializes in Mexican street style tacos. They share the same building with the Chevron convenient store which takes up a third of the building. Right outside are the gas pumps. The interior is nicely decorated with bright color, nice booths, tables and chairs. What draws your attention right away are the large plexiglass window openings that show off their state of the art. You'll also notice the large pieces of meat standing vertically on large skewers. In the context of Mexican cuisine, trompo refers to a vertical rotisserie. Meat is skewered and turned slowly as it cooks with the outer layers being shaved off for orders. Their tacos are made from scratch with their authentic Mexican marinade. They also serve breakfast items, quesadillas, tortas, burritos, a salad and a variety of snacks. Menu choices were simple with many combo options. I had to try their trompo meat so I ordered the 3 taco combo. You also get a large cup of mexican rice and refried beans. The rice was nicely flavored with some peas. Yom Yom Yom. The refried beans were also nicely cooked. The made from scratch street style taco flour tortillas complemented the heroes on my tray. The chicken was on par, but the steak and barbacoa were outstanding! The single thin slice of steak was succulent and juicy. Dressed with the fresh onions, cilantro and some of their green hot sauce... Yom Yom Yom Yom! The shredded pieces of the barbacoa were seasoned perfectly and again, wrapped in the tortilla, garnished with onions, cilantro,.. Yom Yom Yom Yom! Even Nick's lengua (beef tongue) was tender and flavorful. So don't let this gas station restaurant fool you. Some of the best food are found in hole-in-the-walls. This was no exception. It reminds me of the humble beginnings of Hoover's Blue Pacific. It's too bad Twisted Trompo isn't here. What a great place to find great food 24/7!
