Fajita was moist and had that grilled taste. Their carne guisada is what you expected and not over spiced or that extra taste of cumin. Aguas frescas were delicious (lemonade and jamaica).

Perfect Margaritas every time. Make sure to not fill up on chips and hot sauce because the menu items are more diverse than other Mexican restaurants. Try one of the stuffed avocados, you won’t be disappointed. I had the shrimp stuffed avocado this trip and took a Togo plate home because the plate is plentiful. The service is great, too.

This place is incredible. I have only had the Avocado Stuffed cheese and fajita chicken. Also with this dish is a cup o Tortilla soup, rice, refried beans and beef fajita in a tortilla. There is so much food that you cannot eat it all. This dish is tasty and incredible. I only come down once a year, but this restaurant is a must to visit.

Have been here many times. The food is always great. Sometimes there's a bit of a wait but it's worth it for hot and fresh cooked meals. Only thing that takes anything away is the seats are nearly all old and torn up which is uncomfortable if you are wearing shorts, and there's always times if big dusty buildup all around the ceiling. Not a big deal but it doesn't look clean. Won't stop me from coming here every time I visit Port Lavaca though. Highly recommend the stuffed avocado

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants! The food is always delicious and the service is consistently good. This is the only place where you can find the Juanito dish—and it’s an absolute must-try! Everything is made fresh, and the flavors are spot on. Highly recommended if you’re looking for authentic Mexican cuisine with unique offerings.
