    I stopped in on this hot afternoon for the first time with Thing Two after coming back from Rock Springs. This is a quaint little spot on corner of Water street and Earl Garrett Street in down-town Kerrville. The atmosphere inside and out side presents as mid to up- scale dining but the food here is simple, fresh and gives a unique perspective to Mexican Deli (yes, I just made that term up) cuisine. The food Talapia Tacos Thing Two ordered the lunch special which was Crispy Talapia Tacos adding a cup of Tortilla soup. The Talapia for the tacos was crisp and had a zing to the what is a less than top-shelf piece of fish. The fresh cabbage and Pico de Gallo that accompanied this entree was just right for a hot summer afternoon. Mexican Sandwich This is a fairly simple sandwich (turkey and cheese) with iceberg lettuce, guacamole and Pico de Gallo. This sandwich was light and had a nice offering of deli-cut turkey meat. Service The owner and the waiter were both warm and welcoming. I appreciate the Southern hospitality and charm shown on this visit. Overall, between the service, price point, and food, this spot is worth a return visit. #supportlocal

    Enchiladas Verdes

    Went to lunch at Francisco's on Valentine's Day with a girlfriend. It was my first visit to Kerrville in years, and I'm probably going to remember Francisco's as the highlight of my trip! Absolutely loved the food, loved the build-out and ambience of the restaurant itself and loved the wonderful server! We both decided to try the daily special, which was Enchiladas Verdes and they were possibly the best I've ever had! (Great tomatillo sauce I could have licked it off my plate!) I also noticed a lot of people had a unique looking dish so I ordered it à la cart just to see what it was like. I believe it was called Vera Cruz something... It was frankly, one of the weirdest concoctions I've ever had, and at the same time it was wonderful! It was spicy chicken salad, seasoned with who knows what, served on a crispy chalupa shell, and topped with guacamole and grated cheese. I'd definitely go out on a limb again for that! All I can say, is you really need to try this place!

    Friends took us here when we were visiting from out of town. It's decorated with some fun and funky art of different styles, something for everyone. The lunch menu has sandwiches and a few other options but the daily specials are fresh and interesting.

    We did not eat here in 2021 because the tables are just too close together but now is fine. The food is great and so is the service.

    I absolutely love Rio Ranch Cafe! The brisket quesadillas are to die for! Hands down best…read morequesadillas in Kerrville! I love going for brunch because my dad likes to get breakfast. Service is always great and they are always busy! Many people know that this is the best spot in Kerrville! I can't want to continue to find more amazing items on the menu! The vibes inside are mom and pop feels. THE BEST!

    I'm laying in bed; my preferred hotel suite in Kerrville. Eaten at many places for breakfast along…read moreSidney Baker (main strip). Consulted Yelp and a hmmm moment. The hotel I'm staying at has a breakfast buffet that's number 2 on the list. I can't tell you how wrong Yelp actually is on a recent Sunday. I put my big boy Wranglers on and headed off to sway the internet into a different direction. I've had plenty of Bourdain moments in my life. Eat local, get the cream sauce (no actual cream sauce exists here). Have a drink in a empty bar (they don't serve alcohol). Sent the GF in to secure a table while I found a parking space (PACKED LOT). Once seated in a two top service was pleasant but there were a few flaws. Like, toast without jelly offered. Don't think I've ever seen anyone dip white bread into refried beans as an alternative. I opted for Migas sorta based on our servers recommendation. I mean, they offer Eggs Sardou. And, brisket, Tex-Mex staples, biscuits, and homemade Blue Corn Tortillas??? Plus, sauce game off the charts with unbelievable red and green salsas. Ok, enough teasing here's the deets. My Migas were interesting but missed the advertised Chorizo as the menu described. Also, interesting that they top the dish with an enchilada sauce. GF chose the Brisket omelette with eggs and cheese mixture. Happy girl minus the lack of jelly offered. And this is where it got real. We sat next to many local families; discussing city issues (Ingram proper) which we overheard. Single men dining all the way to just couples like us. We finally threw in the napkins and headed to the counter to pay only to learn that someone had already paid our bill. This IS the restaurant you need to visit!
