Good food and fast service Always good food Eat there every visit to the area Love the nachos and enchiladas read more

Standard Tex-Mex. Not the greatest. Not the worst. Fajitas were pretty good but the tortillas were stale. Veggies overcooked. Bland guacamole. Rice and beans are good. Cocktails are WEAK for the price. Service is nice and the place is clean. Plenty of parking. A little pricy for Early. read more

My friends met me here for lunch. It was my first time but they have eaten here regularly and said it was good. We sat out on the patio since it was such a nice day. They have a nice back yard to complement the view. The chips and salsa were already on the table when I arrived. Our server was always prompt and checked in on us regularly. I ordered the three enchiladas plate and selected two with ground beef and one with cheese. One friend ordered the fish tacos while his better half selected the salad. Another friend got the mini tacos in beef and chicken. All of our food was delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and margaritas. I am going to be a repeat customer now too. read more

It's pretty much Gringo-Mex. Food is good but not great. Full bar with relatively weak Margaritas. Service is good but not great. It's clean and convenient. Decent prices. read more

Had the most bizarre experience here. The service was pretty bad and the food blah. I ordered a chicken fajita quesadilla and what I got was a chicken taco with cheese. When I told the server that I ordered a chicken fajita quesadilla, he said that was it. I said no, there should be pepper and onions with the chicken and cheese. And he legit argued with me that it was a chicken fajita quesadilla. Instead of realizing their mistake and owning up to the fact they gave me chicken and cheese tacos, they just brought out a side of peppers and onions lol. This place is a JOKE! read more

This place has gone downhill the last few months, so I believe we've made our last trip there today. We were seated with no menus, server came to take our drink orders & later brought us menus. Still no silverware or napkins for the chips and hot sauce. Server came and took our order, still no silverware or napkins. Overheard him tell somebody else that they "needed to go make some more silverware". Our food was delivered. Still no silverware and napkins. He then told Us they needed to go make some more silverware. I ended up walking into the restaurant (since we were out on the patio) and grabbed a handful of napkins. Of course, our food was cool by the time we got silverware & didnt taste good. We Still didnt get the extra queso bro't out to us or individual small plates for the kids to eats their queso & chips off of. read more

I usually love this place but today the food was cold and the service was not that good. I work in the service industry and hold restaurants to pretty high standard. After my food was rewarmed it wasn't bad. I'll probably be back but just disappointed read more

Good Mexican food at reasonable prices. Rather busy, but have large rooms to accommodate. A little noisy because of it. The wait staff is friendly and seem to be well trained. An enjoyable meal. read more

We went there last Friday evening. It was entirely too hot in the restaurant to enjoy having dinner. The food was so so that night. We've had a lot better service in the past. If they get the A/C fixed, we'll try it again sometime. read more

This is decent Mexican food for Brownwood. I sat for about 6 minutes before a server dropped off chips and salsa and took my order without writing it down (and she got it all right!). I ordered white queso and chicken fajitas. The fajitas came out about 3 minutes after I ordered so I know they're not throwing them on the grill, they're likely sitting in a warmer. They were...passable. Not a ton of flavor. Store-bought tortillas and I swear to god they use "wholly guacamole" - that horrible pseudo guac you can buy at the store - it should be a crime to do so at a Mexican restaurant. Terrible. Spring for the guacamole made at your table if you want something fresh (or palatable). The white queso was good as was the service after the initial wait. My michelada didn't come out until I'd had my first fajita but it was good. I'd give them another try for sure. read more

Hacienda Leon Mexican Kitchen + Bar - Terrible guacamole - Mexican Near Me - Early, Texas

This is the third time ordering 2 Menudo's from Hacienda Leon. I really like the flavor of their menudo but honestly don't think it's worth the amount they charge for a skimpy amount of pansa and hominy. Well, at least they're consistent at serving their menudo that way. read more

Cheese enchiladas, chicken sour cream enchiladas and carne asada mini tacos were great. Fast and friendly service. Very nice restaurant. Salsa with chips was a tad bit spicy for me but very good. read more

I come here often. I'd say their food is definitely much better than the last owner. My kid loves their tacos. It's not spicy and has right balance of seasonings for both kids and adults! I normally get chicken tortilla soup, and boy, that gets me full everytime! Chicken broth, shredded chicken, onions, mozzarella cheese, avocado, rice, and cilantro with tortilla chips. Yummy! read more

We were in town for 2 nights and the Hotel desk highly recommended this restaurant ... we ended up eating there both nights. The menu was very extensive, we all had something different each night and it was very good. What really stood out and was a major reason for returning to this restaurant was the OUTSTANDING service. We had different wait staff each night ... we all felt that we were valued customers and we were treated very comfortably like members of their family. This restaurant is highly recommended for the excellent food, atmosphere and service. read more

Holy fucking shit. Me and 2 other buddies go in on a Thursday night, although it was slightly busy, never have I not even been acknowledged by a single fucking server. Not a "We'll be with you shortly" or anything. Absolutely terrible service, will not be returning for a very long time. read more

Excellent food and service! Our favorite place for the best Mexican food in town. We enjoy the ambiance here with plenty of space to enjoy your meal. Too many favorite menu items to list. You will not be disappointed! read more

Great lunch menu! I got the mini tacos and it was exactly what I was hankering for on my quick trip thru Brownwood. The server brought us each our own personal salsa, which is always a win for me! Good crispy chips and great service! Cute little spot. read more

We had my mom's surprise 80th birthday party here today. I previously called to let them know we had a group of about 25 coming. When I called they told me they don't take reservations on weekends but that they would write it down. When we got there they had it all set up and ready for us. The service was fantastic. The food came out so quick. Everything was wonderful and they accommodated us so well! Definitely recommend! read more

I have eaten Great Tex-Mex food all over this Great State but I have never had a dish quit like this. Absolutely Delicious! read more

If your of idea of Mexican street corn is a pack of frozen coblets boiled, over seasoned, and then put under a heat lamp- this is the place for you, provided you've never been to Mexico. My main entree of two cheese enchiladas with beef taco, rice and beans. This was equally unremarkable. Bland and boring...although the odd red hue of the rice added a splash of something for the eyes. If a grandmother from Wisconsin bought a book of Tex-Mex recipes, this is what I would expect to be the result. Very unimaginative and poorly assembled...a gooey blob of no bueno. DONT DOORDASH The staff was rude when questioned about a Doordash order. When asked to speak to a manager, he was equally unhelpful. read more

We drove through Early, Tx in our way back to Val Verde County and stopped for a bite at Hacienda Leon. We were really impressed with the speed of service - they served us quickly and our waitress was attentive and friendly. The food was REALLY good, everyone was pleased with our plates. The ambiance was nice, the music was fun, and we were "happy campers" when we finished! read more

The food is always great. Really enjoy this place. The staff is always friendly and when I'm in the mood for Mexican food it always hits the spot. Even the whole fish is my favorite food and get from here. Also a great place to go for your birthday because of the free sopapilla you get read more

So glad we took a chance and stopped. The place was packed...but y'all know that doesn't always mean good. Haciendas isn't good....it's EXCELLENT!! The restaurant itself is clean and very well staffed. We waited just a few minutes to be seated. Our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. And let me tell you it's a huge menu with sooooo many things I could have tried. A sampler platter would have been great but guess that means we will Just need to go back. The salsa was so good with just the right amount of spice to it. I had the tortilla soup...the servings are HUGE!! The prices were on point as well. Management and other wait staff stopped by the table to make sure we didn't need anything. We go to Brownwood/Early about once a month ...but I'm not kidding when I say I would make a trip in just to eat at Haciendas's!! Making my mouth water just thinking about it!!! read more

The Lunch specials were very good! The chips are fresh and crispy! The restaurant is a little noisy.

Some food was great (fajitas), but the guacamole was the worst and my Margarita was watered down (almost clear). Friend's was good and had some color. Mentioned that it was close to my water than a margarita. He stated he would talk to the Manager never heard from anyone. $9.00 for 99% water. read more

Good food really bad service. We arrived at 11:50 am for lunch and did not order until 12:35 and the man had a attitude problem. Maybe other waiters or waitresses are better but not our experience here. read more

Love this place! Birria Plate is my favorite along with Pollo de la Mexicana and the Mini Tacos. Great and friendly service.

OMG best chips and salsa around and that's just to start. Nice clean restaurant, waitstaff is friendly and attentive. The house margarita is fantastic. Their house margarita is better than most "top self" margaritas elsewhere. Good food too. Love their enchiladas. Give the place a try you won't be disappointed! read more

The service and food were great. Ordered fajitas for one and split it. It was plenty for 2. read more

OMG. Absolutely the best place I have ever eaten in Texas. The atmosphere is very appealing to the eye. The servers are knowledgeable and friendly. The place is clean, very clean which is a plus for me. We started off with table side guacamole which was so delicious, perfect amount of everything! Our main dishes were oh so delicious. I got the grilled shrimp with rice. My husband got a beef enchilada and our son got the shrimp and stuff in the pineapple! We all shared a taste of each others food and ver very satisfied. I really love this place! They have a fantastic chef. The char on the shrimp I got was perfect along with the onions tomatoes and jalapeños. I highly recommend this place! You can be sure we will be back next time we're in the area. Might even make a special trip. It's not often I find a restaurant that I don't have at least one complaint. I am very picky. Great job. read more

Food was awesome Karley did a great job serving us and the beer was cold. Sat at the bar and the atmosphere was great too What else can you ask for read more
