Awesome! Food was great! It may look like a hole in the wall but it was definitely an amazing place to stop for a lunch on the way down to visit family. We had tamales, fajitas and carne asada and each were delicious. The normal chips and salsa that come with the typical Mexican food were good and not out of a bag or jar so they clearly spent time focusing on the little things as well as the bigger menu items. Servers were attentive and helpful even when the restaurant was busy. They got us seated and had drinks to us quickly. Although the only weird thing was that each main dish came out one at a time but extremely hot! They literally had to be held with hot pads! All in all an absolute amazing lunch!

Servers are kind and hospitable, gave us refills on everything before our food even showed up. The food is delicious and served in very large portions, you could easily feed 2-3 people from one plate. The ambiance is calm and relatively quiet. I would totally recommend to anyone passing by! read more

What does eating in a small town mean? Family owned restaurants and good food! Hidalgo's has been around for a long time. It's always busy. Glenda and I had been to a craft show at the fairgrounds, and it was time for lunch. I tried to take her to the famous Owl Pharmacy for one of their great hamburgers, but the grill was already shut down. Now where? Hidalgo's was very busy from the craft show, but we grabbed a table. Chips and hot sauce were the normal good. Glenda ordered chicken fajitas and I got steak ala mexicana. It took a while because they were so busy. Both came out sizzling! Dig in! Glenda loved the fajitas. My order was wonderful. When you cut the steak into bits, and grill it with the onions, tomatoes, bell pepper, and jalapeños, magic begins to happen. All the flavors absorb into each other. This is probably my favorite dish at any Mexican restaurant. Come try Hidalgos! read more

This is good place to eat Tex-Mex. Great Texas Mexican food for Texans because we know the difference. Prices are reasonable and the portions or filling. I judge a Mexican restaurant by their chili rellenos. These rellenos are good. I don't like a batter on my rellenos., but this batter is very light and easy to take off. read more

This place radiates the comfort of a grandma's kitchen. Very casual. Friendly service. Good prices for hot food. We always stop here for a quick to go breakfast each time we head on a road trip to Austin. I'm not saying this is incredible food, but as my dad would say "it's not too shabby." I personally would rate the food individually a 3.5, but for the establishment it's a 4 in my eyes. read more

I stopped in Hidalgo's for dinner last night. I ordered their Beef Fajitas for One and was not impressed. The meat was very thinly sliced pieces of beef that was heavily seasoned (with something) and flat grilled with peppers and onions. Hoping for actual char-grilled skirt steak, I did not care for their rendition. On a positive note, their guacamole and salsa were both good! read more

logan gibney is the best server in there. Should give raise asap from $9 to $10 would recommend going here. I'll be coming back

Who doesn't like good, consistent Mexican food? That's rhetorical. Obviously only insane people don't like good Mexican food. A couple recommendations: The super fajita burrito plate is really good, brisket tacos are great choice, but I really like the combo plates and dinner plates with the enchiladas, crispy tacos, rice and beans. This restaurant is a staple in Coleman America. If you're passing through, be kind and tip well. These people work hard 7 days a week and have tons of guests come through, especially during hunting season. I'm always amazed at how busy this place gets on normal days. The food is always consistent and usually very good. I do wish they used skirt steak for fajitas, they could be a bit better. Either way, I've not had a "bad" experience here and I hope I do not. I've seen some people get upset when they're not seated immediately, but in their defense their parents never told them the world doesn't revolve around them. Synopsis: This is a solid, above average Mexican restaurant with nice staff, nice owners and good kitchen cooks. read more

This is the go to Mexican restaurant in Coleman. I've never had a bad meal here. The staff is amazing as well

Stopped in on the way to Brady for the goat bbq cook off. Place was packed, dove season opened up this week. Service was good a little slow but expected for the amount of people in the restaurant. We had the queso, needs more flavor, taquito dinner, meat was a little bland and the tamale dinner, probably the best of the three. Tamales were cooked good and had good flavor, not to much masa. Hot salsa was good. read more

Best guisada EVER! We stopped here for breakfast on our way back from Colorado. I couldn't decide between Guida and Eggs or Huevos Rancheros. Asked the waitress and she made the great suggestion that I get the Guisada and eggs and she's put some of the (VERY SPICY) ranchero sauce on the eggs. Total winner! Had them make the hash browns extra crispy for the win! Definitely ate too much, but how can you stop eating food this great?? BTW the cranes guisada is a different style than I've ever eaten-in a great way! read more

Good food. Reasonably priced. Service sucked. It's a small town restaurant, so the locals will stare at you like you are an alien. Salsa has great flavor. The tacos were yummy but a bit greasy. Restaurant was clean. We would eat there again while passing through if we had a different waitress (the one we got was busy gossiping the entire time) read more

I'm vegetarian but my wife isn't. We found this place while camping on Hoards Creek Lake. They had avocado enchiladas (#52 on the menu), and they were great. My wife had the Mexican Plate (#45), and she loved hers too. The service was good as well. We'll be back the next time we're in this area. read more

Egg covered chili relleno is unique, with meat and cheese filling excellent. Horchato is worth a try.

After driving hungry for four hours for what was supposed to be a real treat at Underwood's Cafeteria in Brownwood, we were hit with disappointment when we discovered they are closed on Wednesdays. How a mainstream food establishment could be closed on Wednesdays is a topic for a different Yelp review, but none the less, we found ourselves back on the road, still hungry and definitely questioning what are next option would be. As we drove on, I diligently searched Yelp with each passing town trying to figure out what to do for lunch. It seemed that the choices pretty much consisted of Dairy Queen, then there was a Dairy Queen and oh yeah, last but not least, Dairy Queen. Is the Mob in control of the Dairy Queens in small town Texas? Just as I was about to give up and have, you guessed it, Dairy Queen, I found a review for Hidalgo's. I cannot say enough good things about Hidalgo's. It is by no means anything fancy, but I wouldn't expect anything else in a place such as Coleman. The food was simple and delicious and the service was as good as any I've had anywhere. I've had a lot of chips and salsa in my day and I would say this place quite possibly has the best salsa I've ever had. My guess is that this salsa is made from scratch each day using an old family recipe. I will feel better believing that one anyway. As for my meal, as I often do, I reverted to my typical standby of nachos. Yes, nachos at their essence are very simple and very hard to screw up. That said there is a definite distinction between nachos that are just okay and ones that really make your mouth water. The nachos at Hidalgo's are definitely in the upper echelon. In addition to the nachos I tried a bite of a taco and an enchilada off of the combo plate and both were quite good as well. I am not sure when I will ever have a chance to visit Hidalgo's again, but would definitely make it a priority lunch or dinner stop if I were in the area. read more

What a great stop while traveling! Great salsa. You will not be disappointed with their omelets! But anything you order will be great.

Great spot!! Traveling home from a 4 day get away and came across this place for breakfast. It was fantastic! I posted on another small town cafe in New Mexico that was lack luster but this is how you do it right here! Staff was pleasant, food was hot and delicious. I got Migas and hubby got the huevos rancheros. Eggs were a perfect over medium, salsa was delicious. Must stop!! read more

We had lunch here on Saturday, in between the morning and afternoon hunts. The place was pretty crowded; looked like a mix of locals and hunters. I ordered the same thing as last time. The crispy tacos tasted much better, and the chips were a lot fresher than I remember. Our waitress was super friendly and attentive. Overall, a good experience. read more

Service is quick and staffers are cordial. More authentic Mexican food and probably the best in Coleman. Only drawback was that the hot sauce is more like ketchup. However the meat in tacos were tasty as were the fajitas. Good Visit if you are in the area. read more

Very busy place today, but then there are a lot of deer hunters in town. We found out that the Kiwanis meet here. Lots of tables, an impressively large menu of both Mexican and American food items. This is not a fancy restaurant, but okay. Service was fast in spite of the large crowd for Sunday lunch. Food was very good; we had enchiladas with beans and rice. This is one of the few restaurants open on Sunday in this town. Location is easy to find. read more

I'll start by saying my family has always enjoyed stopping in when we come to town. Food's always consistent and until today the staff has been very friendly. That being said, when placing a take out order today I got a very rude gentleman on the phone. From the beginning he sounded irritated/bothered to be taking my order. When trying to order the enchilada plate that is on the menu he started going off about how many enchiladas I would like. I simply asked how many would typically come on the plate. He's response "whatever man, 1,2,3, 15, 18....... whatever". Dang it I'll miss this place! read more

Good food, clean bathrooms! Chicken enchiladas and chicken fajitas were yummy and tasted fresh. Service was good... pretty busy on Sunday around lunch. read more

We were in town for a family funeral and stumbled on this place on the way to the hotel. The service the first night (we ate there twice) was less than stellar, although lunch the next day was much, much better. The salsa and chips are good although they are a bit stingy. I have to say that the meal is the saving grace of this out of the way little "hole in the wall" place. (obviously it was good enough to bring us back again!) The taco meat is flavorful and delicious, the cheese enchiladas absolutely wonderful! The rice and beans even to die for! I so wish this place was in m home town. If you have to come to Coleman, swing in to Hidalgos, you'll be happy you did. read more

It's not fancy, but the food and service is good. It's your typical hole in the wall Mexican joint with better than average food. Great place for a December dinner on a drive down to the deer lease. I'm glad we stopped. read more

We live in Coleman and usually Hidalgo ' s is a good place. The food was good as always but the service tonight was horrible. No tea refills. No tortillas with fajitas the waitress was playing with her friends. read more

Great food at very reasonable prices, especially the lunch specials. I'd recommend the Guiso.

A locals favorite favorite for a reason. Breakfast all day too. Inexpensive and good food

Hidalgo's was great! The food was delicious and the service was great. They have a fairly extensive menu, and I was happy to see that they had a fajita salad for a healthier option and it was delicious. read more
