The prices are decent, the service excellent, and the music and cuisine is all Mexican. My wife and I got the whole chicjen and the flavor was so good. Beans were top notch, rice very tasty. We added avacado, Mexican sausage, and jalapenos stuffed with Philadelphia cream cheese and wrapped with bacon. This restaurant has now become my go to as I travel to San Antonio. I promise you wont be disappointed!!

Unbelievably delicious, incredible service, and friendly hometown hospitality…read more Getting a few more murals for our Miata postCARd challenge, and this place is right across the street from a mural in Nixon. Hubs had the chicken hard tacos and I had beef fajitas- both were served hot and really tasty! One of our group made a comment about how good the flour tortillas were-- and before we left, we each were handed a ziplock bag with several tortillas inside to take home!! Definitely worth stopping in if you're nearby in town. Follow our adventures online: www.tent-on-wheels.blogspot.com

First time at the taco ranch and I was greeted at the door with a hardy welcome and a pleasant…read moresmile. It's almost easy to miss the place. Though right across the street from the chicken processing plant. The menu is small consisting of the standard burgers, sandwiches and salads, though the place does seem to specialize in the tex-mex flavor. In addition, the other choices consist of quesadillas, nachos, burritos, menudo, and of course tacos. The nice waitress steers me to one of the specials which is the soft taco "meal deal". The other special was fried chicken. The specials change daily. The soft tacos were on corn tortillas served open face with a sides of pinto beans and rice. I strongly recommend the homemade hot sauce due to the nice kick it gives the meal. Also, fresh ice tea. The desert is a small slice of pie which this time happens to be coconut. All in all, pretty good food and nice people. The clientele seems to be mainly locals and oil field workers. The only reason I don't give this place 4 stars is due to the chance of driving right by due to poor business advertising.

Bro-inlaw frequents this restaurant almost daily for breakfast as it is on his way to work. Since…read morewe were in Kenedy for a family event we all ended up here for a late breakfast. I ordered their barbacoa plate with homemade corn tortillas. I am picky about my barbacoa and I've had bad barbacoa and this barbacoa was close to perfection as it was spiced to perfection and not even close to being stringy or dry. My over-easy eggs were also cooked to perfection. Plus one ordered her usual migas plate and exclaimed that this plate was also fantastic. There was enough food on her plate to easily split and it was a shame that even with my assistance we could only finish about two-thirds of the serving. Service was on point as we never lacked water or coffee refills. I also liked that a variety of sauces were provided with our meal. If you find yourself in Kenedy go where the locals go-to Taqueria Los Potros de Jalisco for a marvelous breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

As usual, I had the cheese enchilada dinner with rice and beans. (Added a third enchilada.) I know it's a basic staple of Mexican restaurants, but I'm a simple guy. It was delicious, especially since I was famished. Service was good as well. Don't miss out on this place when you're in Yoakum.

This spot came highly recommended by locals, and I can see why. The flavors were rich, fresh, and pretty close to authentic Mexican food -- the kind that makes you feel like you're eating in a small-town restaurant in Mexico. The seasoning was spot-on, the portions were generous, and everything tasted homemade. The staff was welcoming and friendly, adding to the warm atmosphere. If you're in the area and craving genuine Mexican flavors, Emiliano Mexican Grill is definitely worth a visit.

We had pre-ordered our plates (beef or chicken fajitas mainly) and they started serving us about ten minutes after we sat down. There are about 50 of us.

We had sopapillas and honey for dessert. A great ending to a good meal.
