This little Mexican restaurant in Goliad, TX, is the place to go! There was only one other couple dining in that day, but there sure were a lot of folks taking the drive-thru. We enjoyed all the food. Some of the dishes were separated onto different plates which was odd, but the flavors were delicious. + Complimentary chips & salsa = very good + Three tacos plate (my youngest gobbled her tacos up, and she almost finished her beans & rice) + Special of the day ($12.95): 2 beef tacos plate (came with beans & rice & canned soda) - perfect for me + Mexican plate ($13.95) - my oldest daughter really enjoyed this. One interesting restroom available. I'd be a frequent visitor if I lived here for sure. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 3 | Price: 4

Everything tasted off and lacked the flavor I expected from a barbecue restaurant. It was disappointing from start to finish. The atmosphere was fine, but that is about the only good thing I can say.

Being a family-inclusive establishment,…read morethere's a good chance groups of kids are present and when we were here, there was a table of very badly behaved adults AND children which created a very disruptive environment. Staff just stood and stared at them instead of asking them to take it down about 8 notches. It really took a good bit of enjoyment away for a lot of customers. Since breakfast was available, we went in that direction...for lunch. Served all day. I got the Islander and wife got the Silver Alert. Mine was basically a larger version of hers. The sausage was really tasty. The hashbrowns on my plate (she didn't get them) were exactly like McD's or other fast food joints. I was hoping for homemade style and not frozen fast food style. The eggs tasted a little odd to me...maybe the oil used? Still tasty, though. Bacon cooked crispy. Good breakfast overall. Wife did want to try a starter and she chose the baked goat cheese/toast appetizer. She really enjoyed it...not really for my palate. Personal taste there. Several people who left reviews mentioned the wait time. We were told it would be 30 minutes when we arrived...but there's really no place for people to wait. However, they found a booth for a group sitting just inside the door and then asked if we would like to sit there. Sure...problem solved in about 5 minutes. Aside from the wait/no wait situation, it took a really long time for service and arrival of food. It's a smallish seating area overall for such business. Hopefully business is so good they'll look to expand to accommodate such demand.

The Texan definitely stood out in the small town of Goliad, TX, as we made our way to our hotel on…read moreMay 27, 2025. I've never been to a Buc-ee's, but my family and friends have ranted and raved about the jumbo beaver-inspired travel centers for several years. With that being said, I immediately made a strong correlation between Buc-ee's and The Texan. After a long swim in the hotel pool, my daughters and I reviewed the dinner offerings in the sleepy town. I suggested we just go check out The Texan and at least restock on fluids and snacks for our upcoming beach trip. As soon as we walked in, we all gravitated to the grab-n-go section. Cold items included salads, sandwiches, fruit and veggie cups, boiled eggs, pies, and other desserts. Then we drifted towards the hot items: pizza, tacos, burgers, and other plates, but I was curious about the BBQ sliced brisket sandwich ($9.99). It was so good! Not soggy. Loads of brisket! They also had donuts, kolaches, and muffins in another display. Here's the rest of our supper menu: + sweet tea drinks (medium) = $1.69 + sweet tea (large) = $1.79 + Nutty Bavarian dessert in a cup = $4.49 + 3-piece cake balls cup = $6.99 + grilled chicken sandwich = $8.99 + 5-pc jalapeno poppers = $5.99 + a large meat lover's pizza slice = $3.99 + pecans Great service. Restrooms, a beer cave, wine selections, souvenirs, indoor dining area, and gas/diesel pumps also available. Big rigs have their own area. The only bummer was they sold out of these really cool dog stickers with the Texas flag.

The food options were plentiful but the chopped beef sandwich and fries that I got were a bit disappointing; the fries were once crispy some hours ago but became a soggy lump of sadness once trapped in its plastic container in a hot box. The buns in the sandwich were also smushed/soggy beyond repair with moisture and residual pickle juice; the disadvantages of lower food turnover definitely affects the freshness of the product a bit. They still have a good selection of chips, drinks, and merch so it's a step above the usual run of the mill stop.

I've been in Rockport about 5 years now and had never had the opportunity to visit. Today was a…read moreperfect day to adventure out. Great little hideaway place next to Walmart. Nothing fancy loved the ambiance. Immediately greeted and self select of a table. A little bit of a wait for menus and drink orders buts that's okay, Rockport is a laid back place on my opinion. I had the 2-egg (choice of scrambled) with hash browns and choice of meat-Canadian Bacon and toast, I chose an English Muffin. My husband had the grits but asked for Catfish instead of Shrimp and they obliged. Thank you Chef!! Overall I enjoyed my first experience at JJ's and will most definitely return for lunch. I overheard the chicken fried steak is a winner.

We have lived in Rockport for a year now and I would imagine I have frequented this establishment…read moreprobably 30 times during that year. Always great service, excellent food and great prices. Guess something has changed. That all got ruined by one rude employee today. Came in this morning at 10:10 and ordered a migas breakfast plate to share. The waitress asked us if we wanted flour or corn tortilla(s)! I said can we have both please. She said I will have to charge you for the extra tortilla. I'm sure she knew I looked astounded but I said how much is a tortilla. Response: I don't know I would have to ring it up to know that... I simply said if it's more than a dollar for a tortilla I don't want it and I did say charging for a tortilla with migas is nuts as she walked off. So it's now 10:40, keep in mind no meat in the micas only onions, tomatoes and eggs. The onions were huge and raw, so 25 minutes to basically cook two scrambled eggs. There were only two other tables with customers so they were not busy at all. Never had that happen here before but just wait. Food comes and The server sets down the plate with one flour tortilla and an aluminum roll with two more corn tortillas, ok that's good. She adds, I just went ahead and brought you a couple corn tortillas at no charge. Didn't mention "paying" for them for us! We thanked her and went about splitting and eating our breakfast. About that time another server walks over, not the owner, not the owners daughter but just another server and says directly to me in a very condescending and rude tone " your server was nice enough to PAY for your extra tortillas but in the future don't expect that to happen ever again"! Wtf! She felt the need to come over and try to shame me over a freaking tortilla that was none of her business to begin with. I responded don't worry about it because I will never be back! I then asked to speak to the owners, weren't there but daughter of owner was. Explained the situation and while she was apologetic for the rude waitress she also tried to add about the economy and blah blah blah but seriously. We all know the economy sucks but charging more than $1 for a tortilla that they sell at Walmart next door for $2.99 for a 20 pack. Give me a break. So will not be returning to or promoting this breakfast/lunch spot to any more of my visiting friends, family or my community. I guess JJ's is off our list. It's a shame too.
