    Great food, good service. Like the salsas. Had the fajitas for 2 people. The beans were charo and…read morevery good

    Stopped in to order food to go. While waiting the woman manager or owner decides to meet with all…read morethe wait and kitchen staff about ten feet away from me. I am on my phone watching Facebook reels. She started to talk loudly to them about things she was not happy about and got louder and louder and got more and more descriptive of things she was not happy about. She spoke Spanish to them and I think she assumed I did not understand Spanish. It got to the point that I felt embarrassed for the employees and I raised the volume on my phone so that I did not have to hear what was being said. It did not work! That made me very upset and I began to get a tight knot in my stomach. She was very loud and talked to them in a very condescending and mean manner. I lost my appetite!!! I could only take so much. I got up from my chair, walked over, interrupted the meeting to motion my waiter to me and told him to please cancel my order because I did not like what was happening in front of customers. I said it was not right. And, I made sure to look at her when I said that. I also said I will never return and walked out. I feel sorry for the employees. I really hope she did not take it out on them. But, I had to say something. This happened exactly as I have written it. The woman did not respond to me in any way. I think she was shocked.

    Some restaurants go out of their way to distract you with fancy visuals and pleasing aesthetics…read more When you come to this restaurant, don't expect that, but do expect great food and great service. The restaurant is hidden and there aren't any major shopping centers near by. It is next to Hidalgo City's post office but you have to drive deep into a gated area to find it. Once inside, the owner greeted us. She seemed to be the only one running the business, and we were the only ones eating at the place, so that provided a much more personal experience. I ordered a milanesa, which is a lightly breaded steak. It tastes just like a home cooked meal, which is what I was expecting from this place. The meal was good, the price was great, and the natural lemonade was the coupe de grace. It doesn't get more authentic Mexican than this.

    Needed a quick bite to eat and this popped up on yelp. Though there was only a picture-on-the-wall…read moremenu, we still decided to go. As we pulled up, the area looked abandoned and we were the only customers in the restaurant for maybe 15 minutes. They didn't have the quesadillas pictured available, but the server said they could make something similar of that sort. Thankfully, the food did not disappoint. The make-shift "quesadillas" had fajita meat, refried beans, queso blanco, and avocado with a side salad and rice. The flour tortillas were also awesome. Definitely a hole-in-the-wall but totally worth our time and money!

    Las Tres Peñas - This is natural-squeezed lemonade. None of that syrup stuff.
