    Excellent ground beef enchiladas place seems a little rundown but food is very good similar to some places in the Valley along the border

    Not at all very good. Cheese puff shell was stale, chips were stale and tacos soggy. Find another Mexican restaurant.

    This is a drive thru and walk up only Taco stand. No dining area. But they have the best tacos…read moreever. The tacos are made fresh to order. They are big, fresh and hot! Worth the reasonable prices they have. Fast and easy. Drive in, get your tacos and drive out!

    I've been to Vero's three times. Only once did I leave with food, but my order wasn't complete. The…read morefirst time I went to Vero's, I spent 45 minutes in line, only to discover that they are CASH ONLY when I got to the window. on my second visit, I again spent 30+ minutes in line, ordered a bacon, egg, cheese, and potato taco, and a bean and cheese taco. I was charged $7 for two tacos that I spent at least an additional five minutes at the window waiting for it. When I got home, I discovered that they had only given me bacon, egg, and cheese taco, so my daughter didn't actually have breakfast that day. Today I went back to try them one more time and offer them a chance to make it right. Despite being able to tell them the total for my two breakfast items last time, plus who waited on me, they refused to take me at my word because I said ordered "around ten" while they claim to have closed at 9:30 that day. Needless to say, I left without purchasing my other tacos this morning, and I won't be back. This was a poor business choice on their end, as they have lost all of my future business over a bean and cheese taco. Actual food: thick and doughy flour tortillas, dry eggs, scant cheese, and undercooked potatoes. I wasn't expecting much for Hallettsville, but this is below the par, even for this town.

    After driving from Houston to La Grange, we were starving, so we were happy to find Las Fuentes…read morejust a short walk from our Airbnb. One of the highlights of the meal was the fresh, homemade tortillas. They were warm, soft, and clearly made in-house, making the fajitas even more enjoyable. The fajitas themselves were flavorful, tender, and arrived sizzling hot. And if you're in the mood for a margarita, be prepared--they're gigantic! Definitely big enough to help you unwind after a day of traveling. The only downside was the service. We came in for a later lunch, and it felt like the staff was eager to clear our table while we were still finishing up. A little later, we realized the staff was getting ready to eat their own meal. I completely understand wanting to take a break, but it would have been nice if someone had simply let us know they were about to close for a staff meal. That bit of communication would have made the experience feel much more welcoming instead of rushed. Overall, the food was the standout, especially the fresh tortillas and delicious fajitas. I'd happily return for the food and those oversized margaritas.

    Everything went very well. I had a cousin in town from Boston, and we drive back-and-forth between…read moreGiddings and Hallettsville. We have all seen this restaurant driving through and have wanted to try it. Yesterday we finally did as we were all together and had time. The service was excellent. The food was hot and excellent. The margaritas were good, ambience was good, and the restaurant was clean. We will be back.
