    Carnitas plate with corn tortillas
    Nadia B.

    Came for the 1st time tonight with the family. All I can say is that we all loved it. The service was amazing. Our dinner was the best we have had in Robinson. The music was good but it was pretty cold. We had a carne asada torta, carnitas, carne asada burrito wet w/green sauce. My youngest had chicken strips and fries. All tasted amazing. Hope to be back again to try more of the menu. Food was also very reasonably priced.

    The sour cream chicken enchiladas were excellent. The service from all the staff was excellent. The salsa was very good. Would recommend.

The high point was the crisp yummy crust on the relleno. The mexican rice was flavorful and fluffy. The beans are typical. The downfall was the enchilada meal. Two cheese & looked what was 2 slices of cheese melted flat into the tortilla which was so empty it separated. The sauce had completely saturated the tortilla and it came with complimentary scorch burns. The green rice had ZERO flavor. No spice, no salt...texture was fine but devoid of taste. So it bombed on one order and the other was Da Bomb. I will perhaps order the rellenos again because they were fantastic. The taco on the enchilada combo was the same as the rice, no good taste to it. So a big yes to the 1st and a big time zero on the other -- like 5 thumbs down. I had to throw that money in the trash.

The ladies are very nice and always get the food out quickly. The breakfast tacos are great, and I do think the fajita tacos and quesadilla are pretty delicious as well.

The waitress was sweet, but remained slow throughout the entire meal. Our waitress never offered drink refills, and we waited extended periods for a to-go box and our check before finally going to the cashier ourselves. The biggest issue was a strong sewage-like odor coming from the restroom area. We were seated nearby, and every time the bathroom doors opened, the smell drifted into the dining room. Even the handwashing station in the dining area had the same unpleasant odor. The food looked great when it arrived, and the chips and salsa seemed fresh. However, I was disappointed to learn they no longer serve guacamole with their fajitas. The chicken fajitas arrived sizzling hot, but became very dry as they cooled. They were spicy, but lacked much flavor. The rice and beans were good. Overall, between the slow service, unpleasant smell, and mediocre food, I would not return or recommend this restaurant. There are plenty of other Mexican restaurants in Waco that I'd try before coming back here.

    Full disclosure, I've only had one thing on their menu, because this dish is that dang good. My…read morereview is on this dish because it's all I come here for: the Mexican Bowl!! It is the best Mexican dish I've ever had of it's kind. Their green sauce dip for the chips is also fantastic. I LOVE ordering extra green sauce for the Mexican Bowl. The Mexican Bowl is perfect on it's own, but their green sauce takes it to a whole 'nother level. I adore the Mexican Bowl for it's flavor, quantity and ingredients. Let's start with the protein. I get the beef. Their beef is everything to me. How can food be everything? I've never had beef this good in my life - except in my childhood when staying at my Mexican grandmother's house. Hence, you can imagine my face, and heart, when I took a bite of their beef!! Core memories unlocked. Ah, the things food can do. The Mexican Bowl isn't spicy either, which is perfect for me. I'm that oddball Latina that can't have food spicier than pico de gallo! Also, the mix of veggies, protein, etc, are just the right portions. Nothing over powers the other. The flavor in my mouth with each bite is like the very first. I highly recommend the Mexican Bowl, consider some green sauce on the side, if you're seeking a great, light, healthy, tasty Mexican dish. At least for me, it's more than a great dish.

No sauces lemon or cilantro nothing that it is supposed to come with. Complained and it's been fixed. Other regular patrons are pissed and ready like us to go elsewhere once again. What's so stood is this place has a good business model but they continue to F" it up. Oh what difference does it make if you have the TVs working and screw up the rest of your business.

Also, I got the yucca chips which came with three different sauces. That were just a perfect compliment. Then I had the beef empanada that came with a spiced cheese sauce, refried beans and some amazing rice. Normally when I get stuff like that, I'll just skip the rice and beans... But these were amazing. The rice cooked perfectly it wasn't overcooked or mushy. And the refried beans was smooth yet tasty. Not bland. The empanadas were handmade tortillas that were created and the deep-fried and came on a bed of shredded cabbage, which kept it from getting mushy on the bottom and allowed for the empanada to cool without becoming soggy. And the sauce is the cheese pickled onions on top were just an amazing combination. And then I had gotten the tacos and I thought it was like one taco each, but each taco was like huge. I got a chicken mole taco, and I got al paster pork taco, and finally I got a shrimp taco. Thinking they would be small, but they came on lettuce and we're all amazing and fresh. He asked me if I thought I was gonna eat all this by myself and I was laughing and think one empanada ...no, it came with three. And the tacos came with came with an amazing fresh piece of watermelon seasoned with spices. It was an amazing feast. He is such a gifted Chef. The seating is in the union so it's like a big hub where you can try different kinds of restaurants. And I walked around for a while before I pick this one, but his food just looks so fresh and tasty and it was. I am so glad I picked him. Definitely gonna have to come back and try the rest of his food and I suggest that you give him a try to cause this place is amazing and needs to be experienced. And don't miss dessert... The churros and ice cream are amazing
