Coming back to the Southwest is always a treat!…read more I know I'm going to get tons of choices of Tex-Mex restaurants to eat at. Upon touching down in El Paso, Texas, home to Ft. Bliss Texas, my family said Julio's Cafe Corona was a must. I don't complain and am easy going so off we went. We came for lunch and the restaurant wasn't packed. No wait and that meant we were immediately seated. I'm a tortilla soup addict and so I had to try. It was just okay, it did not have chicken, which it should have. My family insisted I don't eat (Yelp knows I do) so they forced me to get a plate. I chose the lunch flautas. It came with guacamole and refried beans. They were delicious! I'm not big refried bean person but the Tex-Mex beans always seem to be delicious. I've learned some restaurants add bacon to their recipes and it makes sense, of course I love them. I'm a pork lover! These were just okay and didn't appear to have that hint of flavor. I didn't eat them. I noticed that they don't serve rice, probably better for my waistline but in comparison to other Tex-Mex spots, you do get both rice and beans. Ambiance is typical of a Mexican Cantina. Would I return? If I lived in the EP, possibly, but if I'm returning and just have a few days this wouldn't be my go-to spot. Good but not the best in the city.

Came here for a good breakfast buffet. The first thing I noticed was that parking was crazy because…read moreof how packed this place was. Fortunate that seating didn't take too long. I had as much food as I could, and almost everything was fantastic. I had chilaquiles, entomatadas, potatoes (two different syles), I had an omelet made to order, and a few other items. They also had menudo and plenty of other things to try. I'll get to them next time. One thing I noticed that was cool was that they have a little server robot for the custom orders. Once your order is complete then the robot takes you the food you ordered.

If they don't, you'll still be charged for them. When we explained that one of our kids didn't eat, the staff went into the back to review the security cameras to verify our claim before making a decision. Unfortunately, that experience left a negative impression on us. Based on our visit, we wouldn't recommend this restaurant.

So I'm back at El Paso's "Favorite Mexican food in the Northeast". Well that may be true, I know I…read moredrive from the far east side to have it. It's my favorite in El Paso, actually. They keep a split day of hours from 11-2:15 then re-open at 4 for dinner till 8. It may be later on Friday and Saturday, I forgot to check. I have not had a bad meal here, but then I generally stick to my faves the red chile Enchiladas, either cheese or beef and a taco, and the occasional cup of soup, which I got today. But others got fajitas and BOY did they smell good as they carried them thru the restaurant... I think that's actually why those were created years ago, to makes us smell those amazing smells wafting over and then we'd order them too!! The music piped in is easily listening from the 90's and 80's, no mariachis or Selena or Los Lonely Boys playing here. Polite conversations between seasoned citizens cause a pleasant hum and vibe to take place, mixing in with the smells of the salsa and chips and Mexican specialties being enjoyed by the patrons. It's brick wall and cobblestone floor. Mirrors and silent TV's. Booths and tables, not a large dining area in either dining room. Real Texas sweet tea. The soup was amazing. And the avocado fresh. The salsa here is also fresh. Not too spicy. My red chile enchiladas were delicious. The rice was perfect and fluffy. The taco nice and crisp plenty of meat inside. All that with drink for just under $20, not too bad. I know, 10-12 years ago it'd be under $15 but it is what it is today but heads up they do charge the 3.5% up charge for using a card, even a debit card where it's instant. So then there's that, plus your tip. So in actuality my lunch was more like $24. That's the ridiculous part. Dining out today is like grocery shopping at food king ... anthers charge at check out. Who carries big bills around?? I don't have enough to carry any around! But I digress. The food here is amazing, the wait people are amazing. Drop in sometime, just not between 2:15 and 4.

It's been 2 years since I first came to El Paso and I never got to try any of the Mexican cuisine…read more I beat myself up over it because Mexico is a stone's throw across the border and if anyone has authentic Mexican food, it would be El Paso. You see, my only experience with Mexican cuisine is the Mexican restaurants in Kentucky and Tennessee. I'm told it's authentic but how do I know? I have nothing to reference it to. This time around, I researched which restaurants were recommended in El Paso. There's a laundry list of them, so I had to filter it based on where I was staying. Carlos and Mickey's popped up and off I went. Full disclaimer, I felt stupid ordering. I explained to my waitress about the stuff I eat at Mexican restaurants back in Tennessee. She flat out said we don't have that. Here I was, some out-of-state guy, spouting off dishes I thought were authentic! She did however give me some recommendations. I ended up with a beef, chicken, and crab enchilada trio with half house chile con queso sauce and spicy red sauce. I also ordered a cheese chile relleno, since that's one of my favorite dishes. For my drink, I ended up trying both of the aguas frescas (Jamaica and Horchata) with free refills! First the chips and salsa. I love how they give me whole tostadas as my chips. Those circular shapes are perfect for scooping up all the salsa in the bowl. The salsa was flavorful with a medium heat. The chile relleno was fantastic. The right amount of melty cheese and sauce but what I especially loved was that the pepper was cooked to that perfect balance of tenderness. You see I love chile rellenos but they are always overcooked on my side of the country. So the pepper itself is super soft and almost mushy. For my enchiladas, they were served with Spanish rice (not Mexican) and refried beans. I really loved the Spanish rice. It was light and earthly with firmness (not super fluffy). The refried beans were also light yet smooth. I like how the food isn't heavy. Like, the Mexican food I've had all my life were rich and heavy, sometimes almost too greasy. Not here and I loved it. My enchiladas were great. The chile con queso was a welcome change, giving it a twist on standard queso with that lightness I was talking about (not heavy). The spicy red sauce was smoky and had a good amount of heat. My crab enchilada was alright. I don't think it was real crab, but rather imitation. I mean I do like imitation crab too, so it wasn't a disappointment. The chicken enchilada was great. The chicken tasted like pulled rotisserie chicken. Whether that was how it was really cooked, I don't know but it was really good. The star however was the beef enchilada. My gosh I could just eat that flavorful, juicy, shredded beef filling in a bowl by itself. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Last but not least are the aguas frescas. The Jamaica, I don't even know what's in it because I've never really tried them before but it was sweet, tart, and floral. Almost like cranberries and flowers. I downed that within minutes. Since the refills were free, I asked to try the Horchata. Lightly creamy, cinnamon-y, with vanilla, and a balanced sweetness. I fully recommend this place. There was so much food AND it was very affordable. All that was just shy of $21. I left stuffed. I felt good that the majority of the patrons here were Hispanic because if the locals are eating here, you know it has to be good. Oh and I don't know if they always do this, but there was live music until close. What a great experience.
