    Beef Burrito Dinner and Puffy Enchilada Combo Dinner
    Mimi R.

    We were so excited about our food that we forgot to take pictures before digging in! The dishes looked incredible, and the photos already posted on Yelp don't do them justice--they're even better in person. Inspired by those photos, we decided to try something different from our usual. I ordered the Bean Burrito Dinner, and my husband went for the Puffy Taco Enchilada Combo Plate. The flavors were amazing! I typically get full pretty quickly, but the food was so delicious I couldn't stop eating. My husband enjoyed his meal so much that he cleaned his plate completely. I even snapped a picture of our empty plates afterward--it's proof of just how good the food was! Highly recommend this spot!

    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!!!

    I would definitely try this restaurant again, but actually go inside and sit down. This was the…read morefirst time I ever saw a drive thru Mexican restaurant which is a great idea...but you need to make sure that you check your order before leaving out. And I think that is the issue with most drive there's because 80% of the times something either will be missing or messed up. And once you leave out most of us including myself will not go back to the restaurant to get what was missing or messed up. So my order was a few different tacos and what I really loved was that you could order margaritas to go. When I got home unfortunately there was no cheeses that's was suppose to have been included. I know traditionally cheese really is not put on tacos...but this is Tex-Mex and I wanted that cheese. Especially since I am a cheese lover. They get a solid 3.5 stars and maybe when I go inside to sit they can redeem themselves for me and I'll up the stars.

    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!
