    Under all that cheese was three cheesy enchiladas with some amazing rice and beans on the side.

    Went for dinner tonight and the family enjoyed their meals. This is definitely authentic Mexican food something very hard to find here in Longview or anywhere in East Texas for that matter. Chips are served warm and the salsa is amazing with a slight kick to it. Forgot to ask them if they had anything hotter.

    Delicious and extra large portions. We are new to Longview and wanted authentic Mexican food. The waitstaff was very nice. And prices range from 10-12 dollars. Zero complaints. We will be back.

    Huge portions

    Food was awesome. Traveling from home in Honolulu to visit daughter in South Carolina. Stopped off to spend the night due to $3.20 gas (half price from home) and found this gem. Portions were huge and salsa was soooo good she poured me more straight from a pitcher. Server, probably owner, was so nice and service was great. She definitely deserved the Hawaii keychain my wife hands out for great service. Would highly recommend this place!!!

    El Sombrero - ¡Muy Bueno!…read more What an incredible find! We're big fans of carnitas, and for years our favorite was Mercado Juarez in Arlington, Texas--we hadn't found anything that even came close after moving to East Texas five years ago. That changed tonight. We decided to try El Sombrero, and the carnitas were absolutely outstanding--honestly, even better than Mercado Juarez! The flavor, tenderness, and overall quality were just amazing. We can't say enough good things about this place. It's safe to say we've officially found our go-to Mexican restaurant in East Texas!

    First, I want to talk about the horrible experience we had tonight. We got seated at 7:20 PM, which…read moreseemed great at first because we only waited about 10 minutes for a table... or so I thought. It took 50 minutes just to get our appetizers and the margaritas we ordered. After that, the wait only got worse. At 9:10 PM, we finally received 3 out of the 4 dishes we ordered. We didn't want our food to get cold, so we went ahead and started eating. We actually finished our meals before the last dish even came out -- and then it suddenly showed up after we were already done. Waiting that long for food, getting meals at completely different times, and having such slow service made this a really frustrating experience. I'm beyond disappointed. The only good part of the night was thinking the short wait for a table meant we'd have a good evening... but that definitely wasn't the case. Really hoping this was just a bad night, but this experience makes it hard to want to come back.
