As a BBQ reviewer I honestly didn't come here to review. I have passed it several times and figured…read moreafter a great Sunday service and my daughter requesting bbq, I said let's give it a try as we're use to driving an hour a way from our home and this place is only about 25 mins from our home and 20 minutes from our church. I normally take pictures but once everything came, it didn't look to appetizing. The environment was classic hole in the wall country. It really gave small country concert vibes. The brisket had no bark. You can't be a Texas bbq joint and do brisket bad. The ribs tasted boiled. No smoke ring. No smoke flavor. Regular pepper sausages had no character. Just mush in a casing. Sides were not worth trying. Best thing we had today in my opinion were the French fries and fried okra. All in all, not a place I would suggest for true bbq enthusiasts.

We found it on our drive back from Dallas to Houston, just a couple of minutes off I-45, and worth the quick detour. The service was friendly, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the pizza had that authentic New York-style feel. We also tried the pasta, which was delicious, and the calamari was decent as well. We didn't order a huge variety, but everything we had was flavorful but kudos on the cheese pizza.

The waitress was all over the place. We ordered the jalapeños poppers and she never brought us some plates to share. Ok whatever. My thing is when you order your appetizer you'll let them know what you're ordering. Well she didn't. If anything she forgot we were here for 10 min. Even after making eye contact with my husband who was asking her to come over. There was 6 employees jsut chilling and talking to the side. I felt annoyed. I was so closed to leaving. I get you guys are slow but just because there's no one besides us, doesn't give you the reason to take your sweet time to come attend us. We were expecting a quick lunch. The jalapeno poppers weren't too bad. Kinda spicy with chicken inside. But I wish they had cheese as well. We ordered the poblano enchiladas and the Santa Clara enchiladas. They both were ok. The Santa Clara ones felt like they were a big on the salty side but the poblano ones weren't too bad. They both came with rice and frijoles Charos. Beans came with tortilla chips on top. The rice wasn't too bad. Overall, umm 3.8/5, the waitress didn't seem very welcoming or attentive. (Also, bathroom didn't have soap)

However, when you go inside, tastefully decorated with nice booths and tables. More spacious than it looks like from the outside. Very clean. Even the bathrooms are clean. Now to the food. What impressed me was that everything is freshly made. The salsa was some of the best I've had and of course homemade. The tortillas (both flour and corn) were so fresh and good. I had the Fajita plate and a side order of street tacos. The beef was very tasty. My wife had the Chile Relleno plate. She happens to be a connoisseur when it comes Chile Relleno. She was quite impressed. We'll eat there again as we go that way from time to time. The service was good. I recommend this restaurant.

The cocktails were not our favorite, but that definitely won't stop us from coming back to try other drinks on the menu. What makes this place even more special is that it's a true mom-and-pop restaurant sourcing food locally. You really can't beat that. Supporting local while getting an amazing meal is always a win.

The moment you walk in, you're greeted with the look and feel of true authenticity. There are two dining areas, and we chose the street-side patio. Here's something I've never seen before: they have a section on the menu specifically labeled "Tex-Mex"! Our waiter, Enrique from Ecuador, was amazing. The chips were fresh, hot, and crispy. They brought out two salsas--one was your classic red, and the other was a warm salsa that was absolutely divine. We finished both! We ordered the Chicken Enchiladas and the Camarones Momia (bacon-wrapped shrimp stuffed with cheese and jalapeños). Hands down, the most flavorful I've ever had. Everything was piping hot and delicious. We ended with a flan for dessert that easily made our Top 5 list. Comfortable, delicious, and amazing. And get this--it's only 1.2 miles from our home. That could be a problem!! Highly recommended!
