With a focus on authentic Mexican flavors, this restaurant has garnered rave reviews for its delicious offerings and quick service. Diners like Catnip HarrKuhn rave about the freshness of the dishes, particularly the pastor chimichanga and shrimp quesadilla, complemented perfectly by a refreshing horchata. The vibrant flavors resonate with the praises from Rey Cordova, who praises the nopales tacos and quesabirrias, highlighting their rich taste and quality ingredients.

The food was amazing! I ordered a pastor chimichanga and a shrimp quesadilla. I also had a horchata to drink. Everything was made fresh from the chips and salsa to our horchata drinks and came out quickly. My friend and I drove about 45 mins to get there. He insisted it was worth the trip and I'm inclined to agree with him!

Food prices are getting ridiculous with smaller portions. Expect a small plate to cost you 20 just paid 9 for 2 barbacoa tacos. Call it inflation but this too much

Maravilloso! Roadside Venue, that could be missed, but all the variety of food dishes offered could make you wish you didn't. This goes Beyond authentic!! Nopales tacos, grilled with onions and little tomato was my go to! Next was another must...Quesabirrias tacos with small cup of dipping broth, however the freshly made Tomatillos, Serranos chili salsa is an was the very best in a squeeze bottle that has so much flavor, muy cremoso y sabroso caliente. Recognize it's not around the corner, fortunately it was around the corner where I was visiting!! Sun,Mon and Tues....7am-2pm or so Wed,Thru,Fri, Sat....7am-8pm or so As of 05/16/22

Great food and very clean. Love the Carne Asada Tacos! I highly recommend! I will be back for sure. Added review...Made it a couple of time since my initial review and added more photos. The breakfast burrito called “The Trashcan” is for sure an awesome think to get for breakfast! Great with their guacamole. Also got some to go items for lunch Chili Relleno and Lingua tacos. All is spectacular and with great service! Defiantly stop in when passing through Kempner.

So good! We call ahead to order then pick-up in the drive-thru. Sometimes we go in to pick-up if people ahead of us in the drive-thru didn't get the memo lol. :) They make everything from scratch, so it takes a few minutes. Soooo worth it! One of my favorite breakfast taco spots! Migas and lengua tacos are my favorites there. Yummy

This place has some really good, home made, Mexican food. There is no indoor seating but they do have covered seating that wraps around the restaurant. The birria tacos and the breakfast tacos are the best. Ask for the hot sauce, pretty darn good.
