    American breakfast plate was delish. Eggs cooked perfectly
    Juliette P.

    Family was driving through, stopped here based on reviews. It exceeded our expectations. Guacamole was fresh, huge and chunky, tortilla soup was full of chicken and cheese and avocado. Sausage and chicken nuggets seemed hand made. Salsas were so good that we bought 2 different 8oz to go. Prices are reasonable. We all left full and happy with leftovers in hand.

    Food was great and reasonable cost. The building was old but the staff was great. The best food on our road trip by far.

    Fresh guacamole, chunky and delicious.

    Why has it taken my husband and I so long to try the grilled oysters divorciados?! Holy moly are…read morethey full of so many mouth bursting flavors! They were absolutely fantastic! I am definitely ordering this as a meal next time! Everything else on their menu is fantastic! I had the quesadilla this time and was surprised it's not your typical flat quesadilla. These are fried tortillas with the fixings of a quesadilla. Mouth watering, crispy and melt in your mouth meat! This place always is a great choice!

    After a fun day at Schlitterbahn, we headed to La Cosecha with the family and arrived around 7:30…read morePM. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has a more polished atmosphere than I expected. We were seated quickly, and our waitress was excellent--friendly, attentive, and especially kind and accommodating with our kids throughout the entire meal. I originally wanted to order the barbacoa, but our plans changed when we tried modifying the kids' meals. We asked about adding picadillo to their bean and cheese tacos and substituting fruit for the rice and beans. We were told adding meat would be $4 per taco and fruit would be another $6, which would have more than doubled the price of the kids' meals. Rather than doing that, I ordered the one-pound fajitas with chicken and Wagyu beef so we'd have plenty of extra protein to share with the kids. The kitchen was pretty slow, but thankfully the chips were excellent and they kept them coming. The salsa was served warm with a nice amount of heat, and my oldest son absolutely loved it. In fact, the chips were apparently too good. Between the long wait and unlimited chips, my 7-year-old managed to eat enough of them that he eventually threw up. That's entirely on him--not the restaurant--but perhaps the strongest endorsement of the chips I can offer. My wife ordered the sangria swirl margarita and enjoyed it, although we were surprised by how few flavored margarita options were available. I went with a mezcal cocktail that was delicious, well balanced, and definitely wasn't shy on the alcohol. Once the fajitas finally arrived, they were excellent. The Wagyu beef came out medium rare exactly as requested, and both the beef and chicken were flavorful and well prepared. Ordering the larger portion also worked out nicely for sharing with the kids. Overall, we'd come back, although probably more readily for an adults-only dinner. The food, cocktails, atmosphere, and especially our waitress were all excellent, and the staff was genuinely kind to our children. The biggest drawback for a family meal was the lack of flexibility with the kids' menu. Some reasonably priced à la carte options or easier substitutions would make this a much better choice for families.

    I ordered delivery because sometimes the universe just needs to bring me tacos, not the other way…read morearound. What I did not expect was for these tacos to show up looking like they'd been training for a strongman competition. These things are enormous. Not "big." Not "hefty." I'm talking full‑blown California‑burrito impersonators. Each one weighs about ten pounds and could double as a doorstop. I opened the bag and immediately understood why the Uber Eats driver looked spiritually exhausted. I ordered three: * Bacon, egg, cheese & potato * Sausage, egg & cheese * Bean & cheese The bacon one... listen. Something in there was giving "mystery smoke." I don't know if it was the bacon, the potatoes, or a ghost from a BBQ pit that refused to move on, but the flavor was doing its own side quest. Not awful -- just confusing enough that I paused mid‑bite like, "What exactly am I tasting right now." The sausage one was solid, no complaints, but the bean and cheese? That one was the star. Simple, authentic, comforting -- the Beyoncé of the order. Zero drama, zero surprises, just good. And the real MVP moment: they delivered to New Braunfels. From Seguin. Through Uber Eats. That's not delivery -- that's commitment. That's "we will cross county lines to make sure you're fed." Even though one taco wasn't my vibe, I'd absolutely order again -- just with a different lineup. When the tacos are this massive and the delivery radius is this heroic, you give them another shot.

    It is NUMERO UNO for a reason! This was our third time to visit and we bought a whole brisket and…read moredelicous sides to take to Port Aransas for our annual beach trip. Their brisket is divine and the sides we chose were out of this world. My husband loves their beans. The green beans were unique and I appreciated that they were super flavorful with tomatoes and delicious broth. The star of the show with the sides was the King Ranch Mac N Cheese!!!! I grew up on King Ranch Chicken Casserole as a child. So I was thrilled to have a macaroni with those delicious flavors. For a little history, that particular casserole emerged in the 1950s as a convenient, post-World War II Tex-Mex comfort food. Despite its name, it has no actual ties to Texas's famous King Ranch; instead, it is a creative, canned-soup-based casserole inspired by the Mexican dish chilaquiles. I am ususally underwhelmed by macaroni and cheese but this was the best. The macaroni shape was unusual and the closest I could find online was called "Radiator" because the similarity in shape to a radiator. It held the sauce perfectly though. McKayla helped us cart out our food to the car and was so sweet and helpful. We love Burnt Bean and plan to return!

    Arrived on a Saturday at 8:05 we were the second group in line. Parked right out front, set up…read morechairs and we were ready. Around 8:30 lots of people showed up and the line wrapped around the corner. Sun was not on us for the first hour. Second hour was hot but luckily around 10:20 they announced they were opening early YAY! We were eating by 10:45. Very organized, they have water out while you wait. Ok now the food: We got 2.5 lbs brisket 1.5 lbs ribs 1 link sausage which was .5 lb .5 burnt ends 1.5 lbs drumsticks which was 3 legs Pint Mac and cheese Pint Beans I got 1 chopped sandwich to take home. This was plenty for us 3 healthy eaters. Best part was the chicken 10/10 it was like a turkey leg from Fiesta iykyk. Cinco sausage- 9/10 flavor on point a bit crumbly Ribs were also 10/10 a bit sweet and sticky but smokey Burnt ends were perfect Brisket- 8.75/10 now here is where I get picky. It was amazing, flavorful, fatty and tender BUT it was a bit too tender so the texture was more like pot roast than brisket. A mix between smoked and oven brisket. Not terrible but not what I like. So i give it 8.75. Mac and cheese- 5/10 my two Mac loving companions did not care for it. It was more queso with pasta added than macaroni and cheese. Beans- 9/10 they were delish with the cheese! Tastes like frito pie. Chili beans but soo good. Potato salad: 8/10 very tia backyard style but could be elevated. Bacon ranch taters 10/10 they gave us a sample and husband loved it! Said he wished he got that vs the mac. Comes with pickles and martins bread. Drinks- sweet tea was legit and in a big to go cup 10/10 Tips: Free beer! They have free yueling beers for dine in. Plenty of to go containers and bags. Lots of seating but we were front of line. Reviews say 2 hour parking but thats M-F. Plenty of spots around the block if you come later. Nice little downtown area but lots of places are closed before 10. Lots of cool people in line! Chatted with a few and it was a vibe. Big question- would I wait 2 hours again? Yes if you go in better weather. This was late August and it gets hot fast. If you're taking your friends/family then yes make it an event, fans, chairs, coolers, music etc. Overall its really good and worth a trip for the chicken alone.
