Pastor Bowl
Jessica R.

Straightforward Tex mex and free soft serve are the hallmarks of this establishment. Their salsas (green and red) were just fine, and the food was tasty. Nothing spicy to be found on this menu, which is part of why I assume it's so popular. Make sure to join their online waitlist if you don't want to wait for hours on a Saturday night. The service was quick and friendly, which is a must with a place this busy! It's quite loud inside, so dinner conversation is a little more challenging. Overall, we had a decent meal here and I enjoyed the free soft serve. The decor is cute and the atmosphere is lively.

Avocado salsa cheese enchiladas

I was an on the border gal growing up here and when it closed I was sad. I wanted my chain Tex Mex, but Chueys is way too salty for me. This is a good option. The food isn't mind blowing, but it's pretty good (though I was a little weirded out by the green color of my enchiladas, they were quite delicious). The margarita I got was very tasty. It's a great place for families because it's loud. We had two toddlers sitting behind us and I never heard them. Free ice cream!!!

Food was exceptional, service was too! The green sauce on my food was to die for. I wish they bottled it. It was clean and friendly. Would go back anytime I'm in the area.

Gringos was absolutely packed - the line stretched all the way to the parking lot! It's clearly a hotspot, especially for college students and their families. The food was pretty good, though definitely more on the Americanized side of Mexican cuisine. I've had better, but the fun atmosphere makes up for it. They handle large parties really well, and even with the long line, it moved surprisingly fast. I'd definitely come back!

Found on a business trip, will revisit next time I'm in town. Fun vibe. Our server, Fatima, was a doll and took great care of us. Food is fantastic. Loved the crisp veggies and array of salsas. No complaints!

My family took us to eat at Gringo's Mexican Kitchen, saying it was the best Mexican Food in B/CS and their favorite. Despite there being 7 of us, we were seated quickly. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has an upbeat vibe. The patio is welcoming and the bar looks fun and inviting. The service was great and our server was attentive throughout. The only reason I didn't give 5-stars, was that I just not crazy about Tex-Mex Mexican food. That's not the restaurant's fault. A lot of people do. And to be fair, it is called Gringos Tex-Mex. I don't much care for queso on tostada's or enchilada's. My preference is New Mexico style with fresh made enchilada sauce and hatch chili's. That said, what gringo's did, they did well. I had a tostada and taco. I thought the taco was good. The tostada was different to me. There was a very thin layer of beans on the tostada, seasoned with what tasted like taco meat seasoning. I didn't care for that very much. Also there was a lot of of lettuce on the tostada. Too much to eat. The Fajita bowl was good and worth ordering again. I like the way it was smothered in real (not processed) cheese. The bottom line is that Gringo's is a fun place to dine with friends. The atmosphere is awesome and the service is good. If you like Tex-Mex style Mexican food (which most do in the neck of the woods), then your experience will probably be 5-Star.

Food awesome Service awesome Price a little pricey No waiting pretty nice since they were busy

Free icecream!
Hannah L.

Gringos is a great choice for Tex Mex style food! There is great portion sizes and plenty of flavor. Free ice cream was a nice bonus!! Ambiance: Lots of different type of seating from booths to table and chairs. There was medium lighting during dinner time. There is a louder noise level. There is plenty of seating so the wait time isn't long. Service: The service is great here compared to other restaurants in College Station. The server was very attentive and accommodating. He continuously checked on our table and our drinks were never empty! Chicken Breast fajitas: The portion was good! The meat was soooo juicy and flavorful. The dish is really simple as it only comes on a bed of onions. The dish came with a side of cheese, pico, and some guac. The dish also came with rice which was alright and beans. The chicken was the best part.

Small queso appetizer

A year later on my five star still stands! This place is top notch! The restaurant is very clean and the workers are efficient. I can tell that they're hiring new recruits for the busy crazy football season. But they were doing great. My husband and I tried the bowl. He had the steak fajita bowl and I had the Marisco bowl. Delish!!

Breakfast cost us about $10 less than when we go to other chain places. When you have the choice of hashbrowns or country potatoes, get the country potatoes. They're cheesy and delicious. My scrambled eggs were not overworked. I hate that. Fluffy and delicious just like the pancakes. The cooks know what they're doing and the wait staff is very nice. The only complaint that I can come up with is I'm not a big fan of added sugar to my pancakes. But I know people love their sweet stuff. We'll be back.

Updating my review!…read more My mom, husband, and I went this morning for breakfast and to start off the place wasn't as packed we found a booth pretty quick. It did take a while for anyone to attend us, I had to ask someone for menus and to take our drinks. My mom ordered the chicken fried steak and the waiter seemed a bit confused on what the menu said. My mom was confused too because on the menu it had two of the same name items with different prices. Anyway he took her order and he put in for the " country fried steak" as he called it and she also asked for the gravy on the side. My husband and I ordered waffles combo plates and my husband asked for a side of bacon. When the food arrived the gravy was on my mom's food when she asked for it on the side and she asked to get it replaced. She got it back and once she started cutting it it's was actually chicken fried chicken. She didn't want to ask to take it back so she just ate it. The good thing is she said her meal was delicious even though she didn't get exactly what she wanted. She also very much enjoyed the coffee. When it came to my mine and my husbands meal the sausage on his plate looked pale as if it was left on the grilled for one minute each side so we asked if it could be slightly more cooked and we're super grateful that the waiter took it back and brought crisper sausage linked on our plate. Now the only other disappointment from my husband's meal is that he never got his extra bacon instead he was brought extra sausage links. We didn't want to send it back either so we just kept it and he ate that. Overall all the food was amazing just wish everything was given to us the way we ordered it in the beginning. I would still go back and eat there.

The best indicator of this is the multitude of local workers coming by for lunch. The place is eclectic with a hodgepodge of many old curios for sale. The dining room is decorated to look like, you guessed it, a barn with signs and antique decor. We were taken right in at the front counter where you place your food order. They give you a pager to let you know when it's chow time. Bring the pager to the kitchen window where your hot food will be waiting for you. I ordered the catfish and gulf shrimp. I t came with hush puppies and coleslaw. I added the fried okra as my side. My wife had the gulf shrimp as well and couldn't stop raving about it. Everything was delicious. We enjoyed Feed Barn so much, we were back just two days later. The Yelp reviews say it all. If you're hungry and want great southern fare, Feed Barn won't disappoint!
