Great place for breakfast, affordable & tasty. Max is friendly & knows the menu, one of the staff usually returns to refill coffee if Max is busy w/other customers, the tables are cleared quickly, allowing more 'elbow room' when finished eating, & the young guy taking payments is educated & friendly. Park on the street or in the lot. Weekends are really busy; parking is nil. read more

This is often our go to for breakfast out. My husband likes their pancakes. I like the fajita omelet. It's fresh and fluffy and delicious. The servers are great about changing out the bell peppers in the omelet for jalapeños and even give me a choice of fresh or pickled. Coffee cups are kept filled and they offer both decaf and regular. read more

I come here at least once a month and every time is great! Sometimes on the weekends there is a longer wait. You get free chips and salsa after breakfast. There are a lot of items to choose from on the menu. Their sweet tea is always amazing, literally the best sweet tea I've had in years! The food took about 20-25 minutes to get out, but the chips and salsa helped to not be so hungry. I got the Steak Ranchero. It came out sizzling hot! I chopped it up and put it in the tortillas that come with and added the sides on top... it was SO BOMB!!! I'm definitely coming back! read more

There was a long wait time for a table and food but I believe because they are short staffed. They have great friendly service. For being a Mexican restaurant the tortillas are not house made. They're store bought which is why I gave them 3 stars. They do however, have a good selection of entrees. read more

The tortillas are cheap factory made. The flour tortillas are fluffy. So if you know flour tortillas, that's bad. The potatoes are ok. The beans are ok. The salsa is more like ketchup than salsa. They are operating at limited capacity but the staff moves pretty slow. They are nice but slow. We waited several minutes to be seated. Several more for our food and several more waiting in line to pay. I've added a picture of the empty register to show what you can expect. Also there were three people waiting to pay.

They would not bring chips and salsa because we arrived before their "official" lunch timing (by 5 minutes). OK, so we ordered and waited, waited, waited. Maybe the waitress was having a bad day?

So disappointed tonight. :( I initially thought this place was great, but tonight the service was ridiculously poor. Drinks were never refilled, basket of chips was half full and my food was wrong. We mentioned the issues to the cashier and she gave us a $2 discount, but that's not enough to keep them at the top of my 'go to' restaurants. This was 100% on the waitress, but no manager ever made an appearance and our waitress never came back. She didn't even bring our food. read more

El Corral Lozano is a passable spot to grab a cheap breakfast if you happen to be in Taylor. We were there about 11 on Saturday morning. We were seated immediately. The coffee was the usual weak cafe fair. There were 3 of us and we ordered chilaquiles, migas and a breakfast plate with 2 eggs, 2 sausage patties, potatoes and biscuits. All the plates included potatoes that looked nicely browned but were a bit undercooked and not hot. In fact, none of the food was very hot. Overall, the food was pretty average but fine if you're not expecting anything fancy. It was cheap. Each entree was $5.50, total bill was $22. I wouldn't make a special trip but it's fine if you're in Taylor and don't want fast food (or not quite ready to go next door for BBQ at Louis Mueller's!) read more

El Corral Lazyano I dunno what happened to this place. Used to be a fav but now not only the food sux the service is like wow terrible. Think lazy entitled waitstaff. Don't bother complaining, they don't care. They brought out my husbands order and then our son and I waited for 10 minutes for them to bring ours. And the waitress didn't care. So we asked for the manager and she said, yes his fajitas were done so they needed to be brought out. Like, what? Then no refills, no extra napkins, nothing. So then we were done and sat waiting for our check. Finally gave up and went looking. They're usually hanging out by the register and sure enough. Including the manager. Like wut? And she's like all proud of herself for running the place for the night. No princess, you didn't do a good job. Final nail in the coffin: when a customer brings anything to the attention of management and gets an excuse in return... without any kind of apology. Some ppl just don't get that. And the hostess who thinks she's the mostess? Get over yourself and for the love of God, get some help with those eyebrows. Ya I'm catty, they're hideous. Next time don't look at me and my family like it's such a huge burden to have to seat us when we walk in. Am I angry? Ya. But probably because last time we were there, our waitress Pat (cuz is Pat a boy or a girl?) the snowflake, asked us how old our son was. Well Pat, he's 274 months now. Next time ask him yourself since he's a grown man, just because someone is special needs doesn't mean it's ok to be condescending. All these years nobody has ever asked like that. Seriously what the heck is wrong with ppl? read more

Not sure how these people rated 5 stars. We waited several minutes for somebody to show up to seat us. When we ordered, my fajita plate came out before any other's plates, so I waited. By the time everyone else got their food, mine was cold -- plus they brought my tortillas and the rest of my 'fixins' with everyone else's food. The tortilla chips were probably the worst I've ever had-- actually tasted like the oil was rancid. Everything else was at or below average -- and we eat lots of Mexican food, so I've been around. I was prepared to give this place a chance even though every other place in town was rated higher. Alas, I was very disappointed. Another deal killer that will instantly lose a star with me is a weak blow dryer for drying yours hands in the bathroom (the kind where you end up drying your hands on your pants.) Seriously-- come on -- spring for some paper towels!!!! Sorry, I can't recommend this restaurant. Two stars is actually a stretch .. read more

Even their extra sides are really reasonably priced, which we appreciated. Then, while we were paying, our waitress asked if we wanted a free sample of a new tequila soft-serve ice cream they're testing out and will apparently be advertising soon. Of course we said yes! She gave us the mango and strawberry swirl, and it was SO good. It was creamy, delicious, and such a fun idea. I'd legitimately go back just for the ice cream!

Our server was kind and did the best they could, but the kitchen and overall management were a disaster. Dinner took over 2 1/2 hours, and food came out one or two plates at a time over the entire evening--even though we all ordered at the same time. Some people had finished eating before others had even received their meals. I ordered the nachos, and they didn't arrive until 2 1/2 hours after we sat down. Waiting that long for nachos is simply unacceptable. We were repeatedly told the kitchen was backed up because they were busy and because items like the chips were "homemade." They absolutely were not--they tasted like standard bagged tortilla chips from the grocery store.

There are trucks and cars in a parking lot and a setting very quaint in a shady area. It called out to me. It's very cute for a little stop in the road. They served all types of Mexican dishes. I had three different types of street tacos which were pretty good. They could use more seasoning, but this is roadside dining experience. I felt if they put just a little bit more love into the flavors. I would certainly come back for more. What I really liked about it was how the place made me feel when I arrived. And tables inside and out, and they also prepared your food to go if you were on your way to the new development right outside of town. I probably should have sat down for a meal. You get way more on a dish than you do to go. I wanted to try their beans and corn, not to mention a few other patrons were very friendly. Next time.

Came to this area to visit my family and they mentioned this restaurant. Looked on yelp like I always do before I go spend some money and the reviews weren't the best but I figured I'd try the place still. Walked in around lunch time had our table quickly and soon drinks along. I have to say the service was on point. The food was also great tasting. Very happy and impressed with the great food and service. I'm from Los Angeles and was glad to come to Texas and enjoy myself some great service and great food therefore this restaurant gets a 5 star yelp review in my book! Keep up the good work staff. read more

Was in town and ordered chips and queso with Margaritas everything was wonderful and tastyread more

Now this is how you treat a hungry lady!!!!…read more Marisol's is the only Mexican restaurant I've been to where I was given three sauces for my tortillas chips . They gave me spicy, mild, and queso ! They were all spot on. The food is set at a really good price. I ordered the fajita chicken chimichaunga with refried beans and rice. My chimichaunga was really good, it got soggy after awhile. Usually that doesn't happen to me. Next time I will get the shredded chicken instead. The taste was flavorful and it was cooked well. This restaurant has a very family friendly atmosphere that I loved. This will be my new spot when I'm craving Mexican food!

Went here for breakfast with my husband and had such a great experience! We were greeted right away…read moreand seated immediately. I always love getting their English Muffin Sandwich. The way they cook the egg with the creamy, melted cheese inside makes every bite SO good. My husband ordered the Steak and Eggs, which is such a great deal at only $13.99. The steak was cooked perfectly and was actually really good quality, no tough or gross bites that you sometimes get when places use cheaper meat. Even their extra sides are really reasonably priced, which we appreciated. Then, while we were paying, our waitress asked if we wanted a free sample of a new tequila soft-serve ice cream they're testing out and will apparently be advertising soon. Of course we said yes! She gave us the mango and strawberry swirl, and it was SO good. It was creamy, delicious, and such a fun idea. I'd legitimately go back just for the ice cream! Between the food, reasonable prices, great service, and the surprise tequila soft-serve sample, this was one of the best dining-out experiences we've had in a long time. Highly recommend!

Bartender was kind however the hutto hippo marg was not good in my opinion - I asked for don julio silver however my marg was definitely served with an unknown brown tequilla. We went to the patio - waitress was attentive but not too knowledgeable about the menu. We just ordered some apps and more drinks which is why we came. The queso flameado is fired up table side- seemed it didn't get fired up enough as it was hard to pull apart however flavor was on point . Not a fan of the salsa which came out before the food- very tomato forward. Bean and cheese nachos were decent - served constructed with 6 large chips. resturant is in a cute area and great view of the sunset but food and service could use some brushing up.

Your Yelper Girl here! Fiancé and I had lunch here. It looks like one of those "hole in the wall"…read moreplaces which are the best ones! There was a lunch menu which is always nice. There were two salsas with the chips and they were yummy. We both ordered the cheese enchilada with carne guisada plate which included rice and beans. I really enjoyed my plate although the carne guisada could have had more spices. My fiancé asked for some green sauce on his enchiladas; however, he said he didn't like it. There were a lot of weekly bar specials if you like cocktails. The service was quick and friendly. We would go back and try some other dishes.

Here's a cleaned-up Yelp version that keeps your tone:…read more We stopped in for margaritas and guacamole after getting a massage nearby. The staff was super nice and attentive, and the prices were reasonable. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were just really basic. The chips were okay, the guacamole was bland, and the margaritas were nothing special. For a Mexican restaurant, everything just felt a little boring and seemed more like bulk-purchased ingredients than something made fresh or unique. I really wanted to like this place, especially because the staff was great, but based on what we had, it was just too basic for us to come back.

The service was quick, and the tortillas were high quality (unlike the one at the taco counter at the Valero by Hutto High, in my humble opinion). All their prices went up by about a dollar since the menu was posted. I appreciate the high spice level of their red sauce, so that along with the quality of their tortillas will likely bring me back. Portion sizes were about average and the tacos I got were all pretty good (see pictures).

BUT let me just say... I am SO glad we came in today. Joseph? An absolute standout. From the moment we walked in--welcoming smile, amazing attitude, and just that energy you don't see often enough anymore. He didn't just serve us, he made the whole experience. And when I kept asking for extras (because... obviously ), his response? "That's what I'm here for." YES. That's how you do it. Joseph is officially the reason we'll be coming back even more often. Stellar job all around. We need more people like you--seriously. Wishing you the best day, week, and year ever... and Mas Fajita's, you better treasure him like you should
