    Shrimp enchiladas with green sauce on top - delicious!
    Karson S.

    Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon since this was one of the few places open. GLAD WE DID! This is a great little stop-in that hit the spot for some easy Mexican food. We were immediately greeted with chips and salsa, and also ordered a queso for dipping. Queso was perfect - liquid cheese that awaits a chip. Not too runny, not too thick. Our waitress was AWESOME!! I was between options and she recommended trying the green chicken enchiladas but swap for shrimp - I think they were some of the best green enchiladas that I've had! Flavors paired perfectly. She also kept our chips and drinks full the whole time. Boyfriend also ordered chicken enchiladas topped with queso which were also good - the chicken was very flavorful inside of the tortillas.

    I would return simply for the chips and salsa. Every breakfast brunch dish we ordered was on point. Coffee was great. However, we especially loved how the server kept refilling our dish with additional chips when needed. Friendly servers made the ambiance very enjoyable.

    Arroz con pollo bowl

    Arroz con pollo bowl is something I have never seen on a mexican restaurant menu so I decided to try it and it was DELICIOUS..... something so simple to make should be on more menus. It was very flavorful with just the right amount of kick and so very filling. This is a large so I was able to take half home for later!!!!!

    My Mom wanted to try Garcia's so she got the family some food. My Mom said the staff were friendly and helped her order. She said it was very busy and a lot of people were coming to pick up to go orders also. My niece had the kids meal chicken tenders and fries and it was a lot for a kid. 2 large pieces of chicken and a tray of fries. Mom got a burrito, beans and noodles. She said the noodles were good and beans were the best she has had. Hubby got the chicken fried chicken and he said it was pretty good. He liked the rice and beans. I got a taco and it was good as well. Overall, we were very satisfied and will be back to try other items.

    The example of a bad purchase should of ordered from Robles
    Martin R.

    just paid 15$ plus dollars for a tortilla chicken soup this is the amount of chicken I got. It was mostly tortillas chips and cheese. I am not ordering from this place again. I ordered large beverages and they gave me a medium size. I recommend going to Robles for the tortilla soup as they give you larger size portion of chicken breast and other ingredients for about the same price.

    We have passed this restaurant so many times and finally decided to try it! It is always packed for breakfast and wanted to give it a try. We were able to sit anywhere we wanted and had the best service. I loved that they serve chips and salsa for breakfast. The menudo is what the server suggested and was delicious and piping hot! The chorizo was delicious and was very pleased with our meal. We are around 9am and it was pretty full inside! We definitely liked the food and will be back to try lunch!

    There is not a lot of charm to the place. It's not old and quaint, it's in a strip mall. But it's got pretty good Tex mex.

As we walked in, we were greeted by who I assume is the owner and she let us know there was a free table next to her. Our waitress was super friendly and gave us chips and salsa shortly after being sat. The chips and salsa were excellent and I, as usual, ate too much. The salsa had a good spice and great flavor and the chips were very crunchy and crispy (like fritos but airier). I ordered a small menudo and chilaquiles with green salsa and both were really good. The menudo had a ton of flavor, good spices, and the stomach pieces were cooked perfectly; super tender and no, sometimes off putting, lingering offal smells. The chilaquiles were also great and the green salsa was mild and refreshing, with excellent side of potatos and beans. I could not finish my food as I thought the small menudo would be like a small cup not a whole bowl. I had also filled up on chips and salsa and our waitress refilled it so I had even more. All in all, this is an excellent little local spot for some bold flavors and fresh food. The menu is quite large and I'm curious to come back and have some other foods (like chicken fried steak).

Everything was pretty delicious and the presentation was beautiful. The Catfish Beignets were perfectly crispy with a hint of sweetness, but nothing super special about them, just tasted like fried catfish to me. The Diablo Chicken Pasta was nice and saucy, but like the catfish beignets, was a bit bland so I needed some salt to up the flavors. The shrimp ceviche was very refreshing, delicious, and a solid appetizer that was packed with flavor. The Chicken Waffles was good as well. The chorizo gravy sauce that came with it, was different, but complimented the whole dish very well. Overall, the portion was a bit smaller than I'd like for the price that I paid, but the food was overall pretty delicious. Our server Michael was fantastic. Super fast, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the menu. A full bar, but didn't have Pina Coladas. Lots of tables and chairs to dine at. Clean restrooms and lots of parking.

Even then, i thought it was ok, especially for the price point. Stellar: First our server, Faith: she was super friendly, attentive and funny and made it a pleasant experience. Also, the shrimp tostada bites were killer - I could eat those all day. My wife's carajillo was perfect. OK: catfish beignets-the batter was well seasoned and crunchy, but it seemed like the actual fish needed seasoning as it was pretty bland. Grilled chicken sandwich was pretty bland too: the chicken was slightly dry and aside from the avocado, onion and tomato, there was not much flavor. Checked the buns to see if they were spread with an aoli but no, pretty dry. I thought Z Tejas was ok then and it's still ok and wouldn't be my first choice unless it's for happy hour where they have the shrimp tostadas on special.

Well my aunt (who is almost 70) didn't see on the menu it said charro beans was an up charge, refried beans came free. So when she got her bill she was surprised to see she was charged extra for the beans. Mind you the refried beans DID come with her tacos. Why did the waitress not ask "do you want the refried that comes with it or charro for an up charge?" Instead, the waitress automatically gave her charro beans. You don't automatically give someone the upgraded version to their meal and especially not without asking which kind of beans does she want. I'm writing this update bc in my last review the waitress did the same thing by up charging my husband's meal when he didn't ask to. BEWARE here! The food is pretty decent, nothing crazy but it hits the spot if you need some decent Mexican food. However, go over your bill and clarify everything-twice! Just in case because they will try to make extra money off upgrading you without asking you.

Server asked if we knew what we wanted but since it was our first time we asked for the menu & ordered 3 drinks: Mexican bottled coke, jarritos (pineapple) and Sangria (soda non alcoholic) We ordered 18 mini tacos and 2 cheese quesadillas. Total was: $57 (cash ONLY) - Al pastor: 5/5 for taste, flavor, presentation and amount of meat to taco ratio. Only thing sadly missing was fresh pineapple for topping. - Suadero (fajita): 2/5 it was nicely packed but sadly missed the mark on flavor and it was very dry. - Cabeza: 2/5 the cut of meat was good but missing flavor. - Chorizo: 3/5 the flavor was good but not great. - Cheese quesadillas: 4/5 the cheese was quality cheese but didn't actually melt at all.
