Shrimp tortas and tacos were delicious! I love this place, feels like a classic diner. Friendly staff and fast service.

Great food, we had breakfast but it's really a Mexican cafe that serves breakfast. Had some great portion sizes and good taste. The atmosphere is laid back and appeared to be a family business. No pressure from the staff, just friendly and prompt service.

Disappointingly, I've had much better. I really wanted to like this place. I was actually headed for another place but it turned out to be closed today so I took it as a good opportunity to try Jacobos. I was hoping to get breakfast tacos but evidently they don't have them. They're located in a strip mall on Olsen Street just east of Western, same shopping center as Olsen Beauty Supply. You don't realize from the outside how big it's going to be on the inside. I was seated fairly quickly and given a menu. When I skimmed it I didn't see breakfast tacos but I made a second choice just in case. A man came over to take my order and when I asked him about the breakfast tacos he said you can get anything you want. I thought good and asked if I could have the tacos with eggs in them instead of meat. He gave me a funny look and said no. So much for ordering whatever I want. I decided to get the Eric Burrito which was supposed to be fajita inside a burrito including sour cream and avocado. Sounded pretty good. They were quite busy so I figured a lot of people must like the place. I thought it said there would be rice and beans on the side but obviously the plate didn't have any when it arrived. I eventually figured out the rice and beans were on the inside, mostly rice on one half and beans on the other, not spread very evenly. There was some lettuce and tomatoes on the side of the plate but the lettuce was disappointingly wilted, not fresh at all like most places I've been to. I gave the burrito a dubious look because it didn't look very sturdy and sure enough when I tried to pick it up the end started popping open. I decided to cut it in half and try again but it fell apart in my fingers before I could take the first bite. Not a good start. The meat inside had good flavor but was very chewy and grisly and barely lukewarm. With it being so cold out I was looking forward to a hot meal. I found one little spot with sour cream, about half a teaspoonful worth. There were little tiny bits of avocado spread throughout, none of them big enough to taste. The whole burrito was extremely bland. I ended up adding some pepper to it to help it out but I shouldn't have to. I didn't didn't even remember it was supposed to be fajita until just now when I started to type my review. What was inside it didn't taste like fajita to me, it just tasted like a burrito full of ingredients that were all mixed up so that you could barely taste any individual flavors. I will say that it was a good size but I had to eat it with my Fork and the flour tortilla was so flimsy I could cut through it with my Fork easily so no wonder it broke apart in my fingers. Oh and they don't give you any chips when you sit down like most places do. Ironically it seems like the more expensive the place is the less likely they are to give you free chips. Go figure. I had just had some dynamite chips at the new place over by Cash Saver a couple days before so I missed being able to munch on some while I waited for my meal. The burrito was $7.99 and I guess it was worth it although I wouldn't order it again. There was no salsa at all. In all fairness the girl did ask me if I wanted salsa when she brought the burrito but I guess I assumed it would be spicy enough without so I said no thank you. Which reminds me, after my food was brought I never saw another person or heard from anyone for the rest of my meal until I was done and waiting for my ticket to be presented. I didn't realize there were people waiting for a table since you can't see the front door from where I was sitting. The man who had taken my order told me I could pay at the front counter so I immediately got up and went there. I didn't leave a tip because I didn't actually receive any service. I usually leave 20% unless the service doesn't warrant it. Like I said, the place was crowded so it's evidently a local favorite. I'm not going to discourage you from going there. I can only speak on my own experience which wasn't that great.

Clean restaurant with polite staff. Only patrons in the restaurant so the service was not terrible. Unfortunately, it is never a good sign to hear your food being microwaved as you sit and wait. Food was delivered to the table within a few minutes of ordering. Rice and beans were definitely microwaved, but had a decent taste. They reminded me of an old microwave Mexican food dinner. The chili relleno was not good at all. It had an awkward taste and was drenched in liquid that appeared to be from the dozen or so slices of onion and tomato on top of it. The salad garnish was brown and appeared to be quite old. Next time, let's not microwave everything. Hopefully the other food is better.

Very clean place and smell great. I think the review from Susan C is snobby. This place worth visiting. It's good comfort food (American and Mexican) and has excellent pricing. I got Rosa's breakfast. Really like pancakes, sausage was kind of over cooked thought. My friends had coffee and everyone commented how good it is. They also tried veggie omelet and burrito - all plates were finished. And it is open on Sun which is big plus in Amarillo. Staff is excellent!

Stopped here for a late bruch. We were greeted by a smiling face, who seated us right away. Our drink order was taken immediately & served while we looked over the large menu. It took us awhile to decide what to order. We ordered the huevos ranchos with eggs over medium and the Erik burrito with no beans, double rice. My other half would rate the huevos as good only because the eggs were slightly under done. The home fries were very good. The refried beans were a little thin. My Erik burrito was great! It was prepared just as I ordered it. The salsa served on the side was spicy but complimented the burrito. We didnt give this cafe a 5 star rating since it took quite a while to get our meals. But we would stop by again when we are in the area.
