It was delicious! We'll go back soon to try other dishes, but our meals were good-extraordinary. SIL had ground beef crispy taco, and she said it was very good. Hubby had grilled nopalitos with eggs, toast, and a side of pico de gallo (yummy). We all tried the nopalitos and they were delicious. My husband even asked the chef for the recipe. We'll be trying to make that soon. The migas were the star of the breakfast, IMO. Served with beans, crispy potatoes, bacon, and tortillas. Generous portion-everyone shared my plate, and there was plenty left for me. Very Fresh and tasty, and different from other Mexican restaurants. They cooked it with fresh sliced jalapeños, fresh tomatoes, and fresh onions. I gave most of the jalapeños to hubby, but the flavor remained just spicy enough for me. It was mixed with ranchero sauce and cheese, but neither was overbearing. It just synthesized into a delicious dish, somewhat reminiscent of chilaquiles mixed with eggs. The server and part owner was Julio's, and his parents were the chefs. The prices were reasonable. There were 6-7 four top tables, and a booth for 4. I think the 4 tops could seat 6 as well. Nice AC. Clean, even the bathroom. The only negative was No Coffee. Julio said they usually had it, but it wasn't working at the moment. I believe they stop serving breakfast at 11am, and we were there at 10:20. Perhaps they didn't realize there had been a time change. Anyway, no coffee for breakfast didn't sit well with SIL and hubby. I had a Diet Coke and was happy as a clam. It was definitely work the 20 drive from Waco! * Recommended: Check out the donut/bakery next door to Julio's. I wrote a review for Starlight Donuts. Not sure if that's the name, but the address is correct.

One of my favorite parts was honestly the homemade chips and the salsa- the salsa has a little kick to it but it's the perfect amount. My husband had the carne guisada and enjoyed it- the kids had the cheese enchiladas and devoured it- they devoured the queso too- queso was commented on as the best queso- it was decent, nothing special to me as a huge queso lover. It's simply a melted jalepeno cheese they get and the bowl cost around $11. I got one of the dinner meals, i'm forgetting the name- it was plenty big- the chicken enchilada was the best part so probably would just get that next time. Excellent customer service- the owner is so sweet! bummed they ran out of their coconut pies or we totally would have tried that!

(As an aside, the receipt lists the restaurant as Taqueira Mexicanos, but the menus and sign say 'Restaurant Mexicanos,' and it's on Hwy 171, aka Tehuacana Rd, if that helps you find the place.)

I take that back, we might return, just to let them know how terrible it ended up being.
