    Very tasty michelada!
    Roy R.

    My girl and I decided to hunt for a new year's day lunch spot and surprisingly came across this place. She is familiar with the McAllen location and likes it so we decided to give this place a shot. Only a little parking up front, but it looked like there was more around the back and side. The place was not packed so we were allowed to choose our seats. The dining area is not that large so I can see it getting packed during busy times. We both loved the big mural on one wall. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed. They apparently will join tables for large groups and will also reserve such arrangements. I ordered a very tasty michelada that was supposed to be extra spicy, but to me it was just regular spicy. Still delicious though! Salsa for chips were both good. Red was tasty, but not spicy. The green was delicious and very spicy. I ordered the carne guisada plate with flour tortillas. The portions were huge and delicious. Very tender and delicious meat. Great rice and slightly salty but flavorful beans. My tortillas were so fluffy and took me back to my mom's better cooking days. My girlfriend ordered the beef chalupas and although they came without beef, she enjoyed them very much. The no beef error was not mentioned to the waitress so no idea how a fix would have gone. Prices are very good the food portions. The quality of the food was fresh and delicious. Overall a great little Mexican restaurant to try if in the area or if you don't want to travel to the McAllen location.

    Always a great time eating here. I typically order to go breakfast, but dinner here is really good. Great service with complimentary chips and salsa

    Got some of the enchilada plate. Beans were good. Rice was very dry and the cheese was not melted.

    Food was delicious, and customer service was top tier. I had a big order and they threw in a gallon of iced tea for free.

    I LOVE their breakfast tacos. I haven't ordered anything else, but pretty sure everything else is just as good it better.

    You possibly need to know a little Spanish. Great tacos and delicious charro beans. I will return!read more

    This place feels like your mom is cooking in the kitchen…read more.. I've tried multiple plates...and each plate was delicious, well portioned, flavorful, delectable...I can go on. First thing you cannot beat the prices. Enchilada plates for $7... fajita plates for $8...The fajita is cooked to order when I went so it comes out with a nice sizzle. The refried beans have that nice sheen on it which means lard was used to cook them...making them so tasty. The rice looked fluffy...the veggies in them do not taste from frozen and the rice was perfectly cooked. They also make their own tortillas. I went with flour...and who doesn't love just mixing in everything all at once...little bit of fajita, some beans, some rice...that taco was a bite of heaven. The enchiladas are amazing...I had suizas with chicken inside. Most places use shredded chicken as a filler...but it's usually boiled or not seasoned. The lady used pollo guisado for the filling...so it went perfect with the salsa and the cheese. Bomba! And the menudo...I'll be honest, what threw me off was the texture of the menudo. It was very soft ...but I cannot complain. It had layers of flavors...the tripe was soft..no fat on it. It was clean and perfectly cooked...with lime on it, perfect dish for a Sunday morning. I will say...the place is small. But I won't knock it for that. Biggest table is only for 4 people and it'll be a tight fit...but hey, get it to go. Not a problem... And customer service is the best. I've stopped multiple times, and want to try all their dishes. I recommend the same for everyone.

    Tacos El Plebe delivered on dynamic flavor and good energy!…read more Located in McAllen, I recently visited and experienced one of the best quesadillas I've ever had. 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.

    This is place was gold!…read more The environment is for every occasion, big family gatherings, friends, and/or connect with loved ones with an important theme--TACOS! With not wanting to miss out on any specific specialty taco, I decided to go with their Sampler Plus and boy was I happy to do that. Decided to do two Tacos El Plebe, Taco el Rojo, El de Asada, and Taco El Compa. If I had to choose, the Taco El Plebe had the edge but none of these disappointed. The sauces were on point and for the first time in a while, I felt that great kick but not over bearing. The grilled onions was just the cherry on top of tacos. And Tuesdays seems to be free cup of Frijoles Mamalones I was happy to be trying this place on a Tuesday, it did not disappoint but I was feeling it. I had to opt out of trying any desserts, but that just means I'll have to be back. They have a DJ and/or play music but it's not so loud you can't have intimate conversations or not hear your friends and family. The waiter said the weekends is jammed pack but I wouldn't let that deter me from trying to be here, there is plenty of parking and seating, just may come earlier rather than later.
