Cute little restaurant with a nice helpful patient server! It was our first time eating there and he answered all our questions. They didn't have horchata so I was a little sad. We started with chips and queso (no pico) and we ate every drop of queso! I ordered birria tacos and my husband ordered the tortas. My Birria tacos were spot on (crazy hot/ fresh) and his torta was HUGE! Not very often does he not eat all his food and he had to bring half home. Sad that I am just now discovering this place and it's been around 8 years (5 years at the current location) and it's so close to where I live. Can't wait to comeback and try something new. read more

This hole in the wall touched my heart! Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and so glad I did. The service was warm and friendly! The man who took our order was so eager to tell us about the menu once we let him know we were first timers. Let's get to the foodddddd me oh my! When I tell you the meat in every dish was so juicy! While eating me and my friend couldn't stop talking about it! You can tell they took their time cooking okay! The cheese dip was good and the housmade chips were great! Honestly, DFW area needs more of this quality! read more

I ordered the enchiladas verdes and despite them looking beautiful, they were missing the verde sauce. Don't get me wrong. It had the sauce, but it just didn't have enough sauce . The chips were good the salsa and guac was heavenly but this dish missed it. I was really excited because of the reviews. The service wasn't good either we didn't get refills. It looked like a lively fun place. I just don't think I'm gonna be coming back.. read more

2 Compas Kitchen - Enchiladas verdes. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pantego, Texas

This is the best Mexican food around. It's hard to think of better! I've met Arturo and Rolando a few times, they've catered a few events I've hosted. Always 5 stars. And they always cook on the spot so your food is truly hot and fresh. Ahhh nothing smells better than homemade tortillas and onions caramelizing on a super hot grill! Everything Dos Compas serves is homemade to order -- the tortillas and chips, refried beans, arroz with veggies, salsas and sauces, chicharrones and churros. They're grilling, frying, stuffing, and serving the most satisfying tacos, gorditas, quesadillas, tortas, huaraches, burritos, and enchiladas around. Plus breakfast burritos, chilaquiles, and flautas. Their proteins are each stellar.. slow cooked pulled pork, chipotle shredded chicken, marinated steak. Plus grilled nopales (cactus) and grilled seasonal veggies. Lucky for everyone the menu is clearly marked with gluten free, veggie, and vegan options. Depending on what you order you'll get plenty of refreshing toppings like onion, cilantro, lime, crema, and queso fresco, Monterrey Jack and mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced crunchy radishes, and a red and green salsa that you always need more of. Wash it all down with something just as tasty like a house-made horchata, agua fresca, or Mexican coke. 2 Compas also carries Oak Cliff Beverage Works locally hand-crafted sodas (made with pure sugar cane) in lots of flavors: ginger ale, root beer, grape, iced tea, mandarin, rojo grande (big red), spritz, and cola. I pick root beer! I am desperately looking forward to my next visit. I'm getting a huarache with pastor. Or maybe a gordita. read more

Listen. I'm coming back. Saw this promoted in Real Arlington Foodies FB group. She posted about the nachos (which weren't on the menu). Sunday September 2023 5:45 (closes at 6 on Sundays) Parking: little tight parking lot. Right past Dairy Queen in pantego. I We called and placed an order over the phone. Beef (bistec) quesadilla plate and Al pastor nachos. (A little under $25). Quoted us 15 min. We were 6 min out. Order was ready in ten. Nachos. Are. FIREEEEEEEE. Anytime I want some, I'm coming back. (8.5/10). I didn't eat them until ten min later, though, so I know it would be a little higher. Quesadillas--- it didn't come with rice and beans. Bummer. I ordered the "plate" but maybe that doesn't mean rice/beans here. Or maybe he misheard. (Quesadillas are a 8/10, per my friend.) Mexican cokes are available (a little under $4 each) Con: smells like rotten eggs when you walk inside. They didn't have chicken fajita for the quesadilla We didn't witness bad service like other reviews stated, but keep in mind we ordered to go. Will return. read more

2 Compas Kitchen - Bacon, potato, egg, and cheese taco - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pantego, Texas

Tacos are really good! They also serve breakfast tacos. Their salsas are really good, both the green and red sauce have good flavor. I've taken my food to go but they do have tables inside if you'd prefer to dine in. It is a small restaurant so it is easy to miss. It is directly across the street from Dutch bros, right in between Fattoush and Mad Mike's. Next visit I want to try a torta or a gordita and I will definitely post it! read more

I have been here twice now and will be coming back again & again! I love that the pastor tacos come with pineapple. The barbacoa burrito was too tasty! Burritos come with a side of seasoned fries. All the workers have been friendly and helpful. The food all tastes very fresh. I want to try one of their tortas on my next visit, they look amazing! Also, everything is reasonably priced, definitely worth stopping by! read more

This place is easy to miss but worth a visit. The food is freshly made to order. The salsa was not my fav because it was hot (not spicy) therefore it was odd to pair with tortilla chips. The flavor was good so it would be great if picking up a to-go order IMO. The food had good flavor overall but the service could definitely improve. The server was not very friendly and short when answering our questions. Other than that, the food came out fairly quickly and it was very good. I may be back read more

Had a taco plate with barbacoa, Pastor, and chicharron tacos, rice, beans, and a horchata to drink. The horchata was one of the most flavorful I have had. The tacos also did not disappoint. They were filled with meat and very filling. The rice was pillowy and the beans very good as well. Their Yelp rating is well deserved. It's nice to find a family run restaurant that takes pride in their food. read more

Best taco place in Pantego, always super friendly and the food tastes delicious. The place is quite and clean always.

We ordered to-go: 2 bistec quesadillas for the meat eaters and a variety of veggie and nopales things for the plant based eater (2 tacos, a sope and a gordita). Plus all three versions of the churros. It was all really good! Will definitely be returning. For the food, and likely in between for the churros. Note: if you've never had nopales before, they have an okra-like texture, if you're familiar with that. Means they could be described as having a "slimy" texture and might not be your cup of tea. But remember: that's a you thing, and not a dish thing. If you love nopales, you'll love their nopales dishes. Enjoy! read more

The Barbacoa tacos were delicious and the queso and guacamole were the best we've ever had. This is a hidden gem in Pantego. We will be back many more times read more

Best street tacos and breakfast tacos in Arlington! I discovered this gem of a spot earlier this summer! Typically order their Bistec tacos but I've tried all of the varieties! I've ordered for myself and a large group and food always is prepared and packaged nicely! I've never ate at the restaurant but it looks cozy and very clean every time I pick up food. Service is prompt and polite! read more

Had the opportunity to check this out & so happy I did! Great little spot that stayed busy and quick turn. The lady taking orders was awesome and rocking it as she was the only one up front. Started with queso-so dang good & they make their own chips with some seasoning that took it to another level. Had chicharron and tinga tacos & the carnitas Gordita's. They bring two salsas & WOW. Can't wait to go back. read more

I wanted breakfast tacos this morning decided to go to a new place that has been here a while but my first time here. I had two breakfast tacos, bacon egg and cheese and chorizo egg and cheese. Both are very good could not have asked for anything better. Great flavor good amount of ingredients. The price was dollar 75 each good price for the tacos. Made fresh when I order the tacos. The restaurant is located in a gas station they do have seating inside or get it to go which I did. The menu had much more. Sandwiches, quesadillas, tacos just to name a few. I will surely be back for some good breakfast tacos maybe I'll try some other food next time. read more

This spot is my favorite Arlington Hidden Gem! I had learned about this spot a few months ago, thanks to some Facebook post. I have not stopped coming since. I try to go at least once a week, it has become my favorite restaurant. Their food is always so fresh and the meat they use is very tasty unlike other spots I've gone to. My favorite plate from here is their chilaquiles. They are the best in Arlington very tasty, they are also not shy with their portions and the price ($9) makes it even more amazing. I have taken many friends here as well and they all fall in love! The service is also just as amazing as their food! read more

In the background, another similar plate and a hand are visible, along with a bottle of water and a white straw wrapper. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pantego, Texas

We loved our experience at 2 Compas! We got an order of chips and salsa, along with two plates of tacos. With our high San Antonio taco standards, we both loved the tacos we got here. That alone will keep us coming back, however they've got a pretty good size menu that we'll be working our way through. The inside of the restaurant is pretty small and not a lot of people were eating in, most were taking food to go, so the ambiance isn't really that of a "sit down" restaurant. However, we actually liked that it wasn't crazy busy, and we brought in our own beer (it's BYOB) which made it even better (and cheaper!). This is definitely one of our favorite finds since moving to Arlington! read more

Just tried this place out due to high reviews, I didn't personally see how the reviews warranted. Our food took around 20 minutes when we were the only people there. Our server brought our food out and never checked on us again. After letting her know I was going to order an extra taco to go, I had to get up and stand at the counter for a couple minutes before she noticed me. As a server myself it was the first time in probably 5 years I tipped under 20%. The creamy verde was unbalanced being too citrusy and herby. The pastor did not taste like any pastor I've had before. I will say the lengua was very good and the tinga taco was pretty good while the meat was a little tough, my breakfast tacos were also pretty good. Everyone was also very friendly though the service wasn't quite there. Our server was busy shutting down the side room so she was a little distracted which I can understand. I'm giving this place the benefit of the doubt and am going to try it again because everyone has off days. Hopefully I can come back to this review and make amends. read more

I got the three tacos... It was very tasty. The cicerones were kind of too chewy... But the meat and the taco was very tasty. The restaurant is tiny, intimate. not a lot of space. They seem to do a lot of to go, which is a great thing when you want some good tacos. read more

This great little spot is located in a shopping center. It's not too big, but I noticed a lot of people coming and going with to go orders. We decided to eat in and the food was hot and made to order, so it can be a little wait, but well worth it. My husband ordered the birria special and the consomé wasn't watery like most places and it even had some meat and cilantro so it was good to eat on its own instead of wasting it after finishing his tacos. I had some bistec sopes, omg! They were huge! I asked for no onions, and unfortunately they were too small to take off, but luckily I was able to mask the taste by drowning my sopes with delicious green salsa. As a I mentioned, they were big, and loaded. I definitely overestimated how many I ordered. They also have different agua frescas on different days. I got lucky and was able to get an agua de piña. It was sweet and refreshing. One inconvenience is that there wasnt a changing table in the bathroom, but I understand it's a small place. Due to this and the onions, I deducted one star, but we really enjoyed our lunch and look forward to returning! read more

Best, "south of the border", street food, in Arlington for sure, maybe Tarrant County!! We knew them when they were down the street in the Fina Mart. Drove from west side Fort Worth! read more

I see this place when I am going to Fatoosh, and always thought I needed to stop in. Well, today was the day! I got off work early and needed to eat SOMETHING, but was meeting friends for dinner later and didn't want to ruin it. Tacos are the perfect food. You order them individually so you can go full on meal or just a snack. I ordered two tacos, one barbacoa and one carnitas. At $2.50, they are a bit more expensive than some of their competitors, but still an awesome deal. First thing you notice, homemade tortillas. OH YEAH! They give you a generous portion of filling, topped with onions and cilantro. Grilled onion on the side is always a welcome touch. The barbacoa was juicy and delicious, but the carnitas was the winner today. So flavorful. I only wished they crisped it up on the flat top to give it a bit of texture. They came with green salsa that was a little citrusy and herbal. It has a slow creeper heat to it that I really enjoyed. Not really spicy, but it says hello. I have a feeling I am going to be popping over here more often. There really is nothing better than homemade tortillas. read more

We visited this place based on Yelp's recommendation and it did not disappoint. We were skeptical because it wasn't very crowded, but everything we tried was delicious. Everything had really great flavor and it did taste like homemade Mexican food. Even the soda machine dispensed soda made with real sugar and not high fructose corn syrup that tasted delicious. But the best part was the price. The taco plates were all under $9 and were plentiful. Overall this place was a great hole in the wall eatery for quality food. read more

Off the beaten path in Pantego/Arlington area. We are Yelp lovers and look and seek all the time. This place rated well so we gave it a shot since we were close by and they were BYOB. Husband had the 3 Taco Plate with El Pastor. The meat was cut up very fine, which caused it to be very dry with average flavor. I ordered the burrito plate and asked for my meat to be on the side since I don't eat meat. I was told they can't do that and was then told of other vegetarian options. Since I wasn't interested in that, I stayed with the burrito but did not get any meat. That was fine for me, but wish my husband could've added extra to his tacos. Nonetheless, it was really good and a large portion to the point my husband I could've split it. I will say their chips and salsa was exceptional with added, raw onion, and cilantro on top, serve warm. You can tell it was homemade and their chips were very crisp & good. As mentioned, they are BYOB. But they do offer, soft drinks, tea, water, etc. It's quiet, in a shopping strip, & a small space but there was a little side room that could accommodate a small family gathering or party of about 20ish people. Sorry, no pics -- too hungry to wait read more

Great tasting tacos for a reasonable price. The chips and salsa were really good too.

Okay. So the staff are crazy friendly. It was like we had been friends for years. But the food....holy cow. The chips and salsa are different but in a good way. Not usually a fan of salsa being served hot, but somehow these guys get it right. As for the tacos...I started with 2 bistec and 2 carnitas tacos. Amazing! They were so good I went back and got 2 pastor. The wife had carnitas and she loved them too. And she is a bit of a street taco snob. If they have the horchata- get it. It has to be the best I have ever had. It leaves this flowery potpourri taste in your mouth that is just wonderful. The inside is small, very small, but clean and the music is not all crazy loud and obnoxious. Easy to have a nice meal as long as you are okay ordering from the counter. But staff are so laid back it's like being at grandmas house and just walking up to the kitchen island. Highly recommend this place if you get the chance. read more

The place is nothing to look at, but don't let that fool you. Girl at the counter was very sweet. Food got to our table quickly. And it was really good. Got the queso, with barbacoa and chicken tacos. Love the two sauces they give you with the meal. Everything seemed to be made from scratch. Including the chips. Just quality food. I will definitely be going back soon. read more
