06/26/2014 - Delicious food, great service!!
We went there for lunch yesterday, the first time since the restaurant changed from Tejano. We were seated and immediately brought a basket of delicious, thin and crispy chips and a decanter of salsa with bowls. The salsa was good, but it could have been spicier. But I love my food spicier than most, so I cannot really complain about that. We ordered a cup of queso, and it was wonderful!!! Cheesy, gooey and very tasty! I ordered the cheese enchilada dinner special, which was $4.50. I was served a huge plate of very cheesy enchiladas covered in a thick meat gravy. I wish I had taken a picture of the plate, it was really something to see. The beans had a wonderful seasoning with a hint of bacon taste. The rice was rice, what can you really do to rice? It even had a small side salad on the plate complete with tomatoes and queso blanco crumbles. The dinner was delicious. I have told several people about this place, and we will definitely be back!!
