    The fire food

    omg! I 1000% recommend this place! it's so good portions are so generous for the price staff is amazing and funny especially our seve! the ambiance is very homie and safe feeling so amazing and come here! but be warned the tortillas are bright orange in the kids cheese enchilada

    Parrillada Paiso.... This enormous serving was for 2, though it could easily feed a small family!
    Marie B.

    It's a hidden gem, located in a shopping plaza across HEB (Louetta Glen & Holzwarth). Clean & cozy, the atmosphere is homey and comfortable. Food tastes fresh (not greasy), is flavorful & cooked well, and portions are generous. Our first time here, we shared the Parrillada Paiso for 2. It was an extravagant mountain of grilled meat (served with rice, beans, guacamole, pico de gallo, and tortillas) that could have easily fed a small family! The short ribs and carne asada fajitas were marinated well & tender... A definite bang for your buck. My only critique is that I wasn't a fan of the salsas. The red salsa was too chunky for my liking. The big pieces of vegetables were a little too much for each bite and weighed too heavy on the chips.... The green salsa is a verde-tomatillo sauce that was a little too tart for me. Enjoyed the ambiance very much. We will likely come back to try other menu items.

    Small restaurant... Cheese : canned salsa : not recommended rita gold : good meat : good service : good Although i don't care for the salsa I will leave a good review because the service was good and I hope the guy I am meeting will be the last

    Chips and queso

    Sorry. Was like velveta cheese, we had to leave. We ended up at Julio's. *********************************************

    On a search for better salsa we attempted Eva's... When we walked in we were kinda told to just sit anywhere. I say kinda bc it was more a quick "you can go" over the shoulders of the girl at the front. We sat with no menus for a few minutes. We got menus after chips and salsa deliver and drink order. I got a Chicken Fajita Taco Salad and hubs a Chalupa plate. NOTHING HAD FLAVOR! The red sauce was pretty much tomato paste and cumin, green was a slimy smashed tomatillo salsa. This place could benefit greatly from some lemon/lime, garlic, cilantro, salt! Really anything. The waiter was okay. The atmosphere was old and outdated. Very dirty. Blinds were down next to us and had grease splashed and finger prints all over them. The windowsill had little dead bugs all down it with pealing paint. I guess our search continues.

    Tacos al carbon

    My colleague had said good things about Eva's, so I had been meaning to pay them a visit. I finally visited for lunch on a weekend lunch and saw they have happy hour 6 days a week. It was very slow and no employees were up front except for a lady going around filling waters. I guess I came during their slow period of the day. I was finally seated after about 5 minutes. Even after the initial wait, I was still able to get in and out pretty quickly for a sit-down type restaurant....so that was great. Chips and salsa are a good measure on how the food will taste. If I don't like them, I probably won't like the food. I didn't really like either of their salsas. The red one was warm and a little spicy, while the green one was more refreshing. I ordered the tacos al carbon since I wasn't hungry enough for the fajitas, which are about $3 more. With the tacos, they give you 2 tortillas like most places and fill them up with quite a bit of meat. The fajita meat was nicely marinated/seasoned. Worth the extra price you pay to come here versus taco cabana for instance. May come back and try their happy hour. They have 2 locations which was a surprise to me.

    Authentic tasting Mexican food

    My wife said that the chicken enchiladas are the best she has ever had! It is right across from the 2920 HEB near I-45. We found a new spot and will be back.

    Beef enchiladas
    Astrid L.

    The food is phenomenal! The service is superb! Every time we eat here it is exceptional. It has quickly become me and my family's favorite restaurant to eat at. Their enchiladas are delicious and the food tastes so fresh. The happy hour margaritas are the icing on the cake! And it's very affordable too. 10/10 my new favorite restaurant.

    Lunchtime!!

There is great QC, AND management, here. Julio's wife, Elena, stopped by the table and checked in the food. She also told us of a wrestling event that was coming up on May 1. She was SO pleasant. Our server, Freddy, got the order in perfectly, even though there were 7 of us. The prices were reasonable. The food again was spot on. We WILL return! BTW, the watermelon margarita was wonderful!

TLDR: Thar food, those ritas. This place has become my most recent go-to when that little voice says - "pssst....Dave....Dave....i know you hear me....you want fajitas." Admittedly, I hear that voice a lot. In any case, I usually order the fajitas. They give you a decent quantity that tastes great. The meet is tender and flavorful and those tortillas had me at hello. I love this stuff! My son elects to go for the cheese enchiladas. I don't have to ask him how much he likes them because is a super picky eater and this is the one place where he actually cleans his plate. The margaritas are solid as well and when you glance around the restaurant, you'll see them on most tables. This place is a well oiled machine. There are plenty of staff and they all work unison to bring drinks / chips / salsa / refills / orders / food -- and that food usually comes out before I can feel guilty for eating chips, salsa, and queso. I found this trick that works for me. Since I 100% of the time feel guilty for leaving the place feeling so full, I started parking on the other end of the parking lot. This allows my to burn off 2.7 calories of the food that just ate so I feel 2.7 percent less guilty. On a serious note - this place is the real deal. While some of my previous favorites have either closed down or gone downhill a bit - Julio's has remained strong. ¡Salud!

    I came with others to this restaurant. It had good reviews, but when I look at the food, it didn't…read morelook like the normal mexican food that I'm used to. I gave it a try by getting a mixed plate with different items so I could try a little bit of everything. My dad got the same thing but a this different mixed plate and we agreed to share and taste each others food. The cheese enchiladas were good. They're made with chili gravy. The chicken flauta was good. I wasn't a fan of the beans and rice nor the Chile Relleno. The cheese is just shredded mozzarella basically not the actual cheesy find in a Chile Relleno. The stuffed avocado was too fried for me and way too much cheese. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas and the restrooms are super clean, which is always a plus for any restaurant. Unfortunately, we had some issues with our server, lots of miscommunication and a huge language barrier. In the end, I'm starting to wonder if he was just new because he didn't even know how to operate his own payment system. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, but I know a lot of people like this food and restaurant based on other ratings so I say try it for yourself.

The food choices were amazing and the price is good. Ambiance is great! We ordered two plates of chimichanga and they were delicious. I had the chonguito in beef fajita and it was good.
