    Pastor Plate. All this food for only $10!!!
    Sarah J.

    This place was such and awesome surprise. The owner was very friendly and masked and the kitchen looked very clean. I was surprised that the food was cooked on the spot which was an awesome surprise. I had the green salsa and it was so tasty I scraped the cup. I had the pastor plate and it was by far the BEST I have ever had. If you are passing through to go to the lakes you should definitely make this a stop for breakfast or lunch.

    We love Ernies and stop at his trailer every Saturday! Have your cash with you and for less than $4 get two bacon egg and cheese tacos with the green sauce (i can only eat 1 though) You won't regret it!

    FYI Ernie will not close for the time being :) He will eventually move, but only once the lot owner notifies him.

    Ok Y'all! This little hole in the wall. My mother in law used to tell me if it looked like it was…read moregoing to be shit down soon it's gonna be good... she hit the mark with that statement on this one! For sure. Let me begin by saying that I truly believe those of you who say this place is not good either just want free food, or you're tastebuds are not werkin'! The flavor in everything.... We had the menudo, the burrito con steak plate, and the beef enchiladas... to drink we got a pina. The flavor in all of it was superb... I mean it was giving me a food orgasm the entire time! I wish I would have taken pics, but alas, I did not. This is one of the most authentic Mexican spots I've ever had, and we have had a lot. If you aren't the type who likes, or can handle, for that matter, seasoning and flavor, stay away! The service of the guys that work here was also just as good. No doubt we will return!! Probably tomorrow... haha.

    The food was excellent! I have been buying their fresh tortillas for awhile (flour are almost as…read moregood as my Mom use to make and the corn are very good) and decided to finally eat lunch. The green posole was just the right amount of heat with the fixens (cabbage, lime, onion, etc.), was delicious. Ordered the flautas and that was amazing-6 chicken filled flautas with lettuce/cheese on top. 2 types of salsa to pick from-red and green. Service was good. Have no complaints other than why didn't I try them sooner? Very good and authentic food for this area.

    This class was absolutely amazing! I never knew how much went into making sourdough bread and now…read morethat I do I see how they can justify charging what they charge. But hopefully after learning from Alex, I will be able to make this on my own. This was a great collaboration with The Velvet Hen and VanBrocklin's Bistro. We learned the entire process beginning to end on how to make sourdough and the different folds and techniques to get the proper size crumb. We got to go home with our own jar of the families 244 year old sourdough starter named Petunia, and learned how to feed her and care for her. We got to bake a loaf there and learned why it's so important to wait 2 hours before cutting into it. I am desperately looking forward to more classes in the future, this was a great experience!

The only resemblance to the pictures with other reviews was the interior & patio. The tab was a $100.
