    Yummy bowl!  Fajita Steak, grilled bell peppers and onions, cilantro lime rice! Food was great!  Family owned, super nice!

    This is a hidden gem! Delicious! Flavorful, fresh, totally check it out! This is family owned, and they're so personable. You never see this anymore!

    Steak Quesadillas
    Damiana D.

    Absolutely love the food and service here. The entire staff is amazing and friendly, which is always a plus for any restaurant. I ordered the steak quesadillas, which were delicious and 10/10 would order again. The fajita and Al Pastor meats were super flavorful and tender. Would recommend this place to anyone!

    Chicken  Enchiladas Verdes

    This is hands down one of the best  Authentic Mexican spots in Rowlett.  The food tasted very fresh and homemade like how Authentic Mexican food should be. The hot sauce tasted fresh and homemade but I like it more spicey and the sever suggested Molcajeta salsa. WOW it hit the spot and enhanced the flavor of my Verde Green Enchilada.  The chicken was tender and flavorful. Christian the server was very friendly and helpful.  Will definitely come again to try the Sophia Bowl.

    Nice little hole in the wall place. Staff is friendly and food is decent. My only gripe about this place is they don't have the standard hot red and medium green taco sauce.... The sauce both are red and green salsa like you eat with chips....

    Authentic Mexican Food: if that is what you are looking for than you have come to the right place. You're probably wondering why I gave them 4 stars and not 5 huh? Well it really boils down to preference. Being Mexican I am used to certain dishes being made certain ways. If they are made different it kind of throws you off. This could be due to the region of Mexico the owner/chef comes from or just how their parents made it. Either way, that is why I gave them 4 stars, the customer service was a bit dry but that isn't too much to complain about, overall I think for stars is really good just not perfect. I'll definitely be going back!

    A week later and I am still thinking about the delicious food and fantastic service! We didn't wait…read moresuper long for a table and the hosts were great. We took my dad to dinner and he complained that it was a little loud, but felt like we sat right under a speaker. I explained to him that it was part of the "vibe". Other than the volume making it difficult to hear, everything was fantastic. We probably could have asked to sit on the heated patio. The chips were warm and fresh and came with both red and green salsa, and both were super tasty. My husband asked if I could make salsa like that at home! We ordered drinks and they came quickly. I appreciated the quality of the drinks especially since we mostly ordered from their drink menu. We ordered "The Good Guac" to start and our server made sure that it wasn't too spicy or anything for my dad. I thought that was very thoughtful that she asked if how it came was ok. For food we ordered street tacos, Baja fish tacos and the parillada en fuego. The food runner seemed confused and brought us another dish (maybe the Verde molcajete) but with the loud music the message that we didn't order it was lost in translation. My husband thought maybe it was what he ordered and started in. Because our server came to check on us so quickly, she caught the mistake right away. She apologized profusely and said they were bringing what we ordered. They allowed us to keep the dish, and no sooner did we have a few bites of the deliciousness the correct food came out. They checked on us quickly, apologized profusely, brought the correct food immediately, let us keep the other food, sent another manager to apologize and finally followed up with coupons to return after making sure we were satisfied with how they handled it. I understand humans make mistakes, so I feel like the recovery or response is what is important. This is the type of amazing service that will keep us coming back. We were actually happy with the mistake as we were able to try another dish we likely wouldn't have ordered (but ended up being our favorite thing to eat). The ambiance was fun, parking was easy, the wait was reasonable, the service was FANTASTIC, the food was delicious and food/drinks were made with quality ingredients. We'll be back!

    I've got a mixed review of Vidorra. At the end of the day, I don't think I'll be going back but…read morethat doesn't mean it was all bad. First, the good. Well, the good was definitely the chips and salsa. The chips were lightly dusted with some seasoning. I didn't take the time to figure out what it was, but it gave them a nice kick. So subtle but so significant. Unfortunately, my experience kind of dipped from there. Service was slow and a bit inattentive. I got the Molcajete parrillada en fuego. The literal translation is mortar grilled over fire. I should have asked what that meant because most Molcajete dishes are heated over fire. What it means at Vidorra is cook the meat, drop a hot coal in the mortar and put the cooked meat with a little mole on a grill screen over the mortar. It's basically a fajita dish served on top of the mortar bowl. However, it doesn't stay warm. Needless to say, I was disappointed. That said, the verde Molcajete that someone else got looked as expected. No one else (there were six of us) raved about their food. So, I'm in no rush to head back.

    Best chicken enchiladas around Chimmy changa is perfection,…read morebrisket filled with a flavor to die for.Good Eats, the food it prepared with Love, like it should be. Many times you go and eat enchiladas and the chicken is flavorless, Not Here. Chicken Enchiladas is Very Tasty the chicken itself is seasoned, together with the toppings makes for perfection. The Chimmi filled with Brisket was Excellent. Just the right amount of crispness with a smooth tender center, The sour cream and cheese topping was Delicious, The cheese topping is very good. Everything was served piping hot, Im thinking everything is made from a Family recipe like I say.. made with not only skilled hand but with pride, not many places serve food made with pride. They are Happy to serve you. Very friendly place. The waiting staff is fast to Take your order with smiles and are actually Very happy to give fast friendly service. The Dinning area is spacious with a decorative decor, Solid real tables, not those fake cheaply made tables like Panchos...Really tables for Real comfort, I don't know about yall but to me that means alot, no wobbly water glass spilling tables. Built for a Real Family. It kinda give you a Home Feeling. Most places have plastic fake plants... Well Here they are real. Snake plants, ivy plants and you can tell they are very well cared for. I've eaten in a lot of places that have decor with dust gathering on them, I can mention a few places where the dust hides from lack of real cleaning. Well, be sure this is not one of those places, you will enjoy clean fresh atmosphere here, its relaxing. Ernesto has come a long way for a family restaurant. No commercial hands here, all home made, not stuff out of a can. Theres plenty of seating, so if your tired of the same Ole chain restaurant bla bla. This is the place to go for lunch, dinner or happy hour for a nice meal. They do have a bar , what Mexican Restaurant doesn't...wait take that back...any Real Mexican Restaurant does. Well the menu has great choices, Try them out, Im sure you guys will enjoy the Atmosphere and the cuisine are Great. Oh..don't be surprised if you get addicted to Real Mexican Cuisine.
