Their Menudo is pretty good. Their prices are great. I would order their 3 item plate. I like choosing Chicken Enchiladas and a Chile Relleno. Overall Good better than El Siete & Linda's. read more

Quick stop on our drive down south. Had never been here before and I know we will definitely return. Absolutely delicious! Fresh tortillas on our carne asada tostadas. Thanks for such a delicious lunch read more

Great little restaurant. Easy on and off the freeway accessibility. Parking a little of a challenge but we got lucky just out front (it was early on a Thursday). The place was smaller than we anticipated but that was just fine. We were the only ones there, so got all the love :) The homemade tortillas were by far the favorite and we could see the gal make them fresh in the kitchen while we sipped and waited. I wanted to try everything but had to get the Nopales con Huevo (cactus w/ egg) which is hard to find on most menus and it did not disappoint. My partner opted for a simple refried beans, rice and tortillas and was more than satisfied. The house made salsa was great with just enough spicy. No beer or wine but a wide array of other cold drinks. It was so memorable, we made a point to revisit on our drive back! read more

This restaurant has some of the best Mexican food outside of my abuela's home. Totally authentic Mexican rice and the crunchy taco (taco dorado) is the bomb!!!! The torta was huge as was the chicken dish Pollo campestre with fresh steamed vegetables. Outstanding food. Do not let the humble restaurant worry you, and let the food do the talking. Our server, Melissa,was so sweet and spoke both English and Spanish. Excellent service!!! 5 stars from Phish! read more

Very cozy restaurant; service was fast and everyone was super friendly, they even helped us with directions to get back home! The food was also delicious, we love their authentic homemade tortillas! read more

This place has been described as a hole in the wall, and it is. Small, family run, 7 table. And if you want a Chile Relleno that is hot, fresh, and still crunchy? Try one here. The sauce is flavorful and mild, cheese is like Italians describe as "telephone wires." This is a easy stop off 101 from either direction. read more

We stopped here for lunch on our way to Los Angeles. Service was slow, but the food was good. I ordered the chilicilles, which were good and spicey. My daughter liked her cheese enchilada, and my wife enjoyed her Machaca Con Huevo. Sadly, they don't serve chips and salsa. read more

Ordered take out foe the first time on Sunday from La Enchilada and it was so good!

My brother shared and it had a little kick to it but all the meats and shrimp were delicious. It's a small place but worth it! read more

Easy to find if you're coming into Gonzales, via Gonzales River Road, once enter town-straight ahead. Parking is limited,but a short walk is easy. One aspect of this place that keeps me coming back is - everything is made to order. The menu has all the favorites, but there are also some surprises. I once brought my very picky Dad for breakfast and he loved the birria de chivo, my niece had menudo, and I had a "gringo" breakfast burrito . Every visit has been good. Keep up the good work read more

I stopped by for a quick snack, a couple tacos to top off the tank and then it was time to go. But two bites into the tacos I regretted not staying and having a larger meal. The carne asada was good but the al pastor was amazing. No salsa needed. These tacos are wonderfully tasty all on their own. And I was kicking myself that I skipped the drink. When the food's this good you know that the aguas frescas are amazing. read more

Eat here for an authentic Mexican bite! We really enjoyed the Siete Mares soup on Sunday (they have different soups everyday in rotation). It was a flavorful and light broth with squid, mussels, shrimp, and other seafood. The chips and salsa are pretty good too. Jose, the owner, is really nice and many members of the Gonzales community convene and eat here. Highly recommended! read more

We called to get a delivery order and the first gal we spoke to said 30 mins the delivery man wasn't there . So we waited 30 mins and I called back for a status update on where my food was. It was a different lady and she told me then delivery guy was still not there .. to wait 20 more minutes. We originally ordered the molcajetes with a salad with ranch and flour tortillas. When the delivery guy finally showed up he brought us some shrimp dinner that had spilled sliver the other food , a salad with Italian dressing and a black Coffee. The food wasn't what I ordered but since I have waited nearly two hours for my food I decided to be open minded. Yet the food was soggy and tasteless. read more

This little hole in the wall restaurant is AMAZING!! It's a must frequent for me. I was brought here from a local relative & had to return the next day & bring my husband! I will travel the 50 minutes it takes me to get here just to eatTheir homemade corn & flour tortillas are out of this world too. Heads up they do not serve alcoholic beverages but who needs it when the food is this good! They do serve Canela which is delish also! The staff is very friendly & down to earth. My favorite dish so far is a soup with freshly cooked beans, Carne, bacon, cilantro, onions in a bit of Chile Verde sauce with freshly made corn tortillas; it's oh my goodness delish & so perfect for these cold days read more
