Very elegant traditional Mexican restaurant in Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico…read more My wife and I ate here for lunch with some friends. I had some enmoladas Which are molé topped enchiladas basically. The wifey had some vegan encacahuatadas. Those would be like enchiladas, but with a peanut sauce as opposed to a tomato based sauce on top. I love this restaurant's ambiance. They had some relaxing instrumental jazzish music playing while we were there. The prices on the menu are in Mexican pesos of course, so if your thinking it's dollars it'll seem really expensive. $120 pesos translates to like $5 dollars at the moment. If your visiting from the states this restaurant isn't very expensive. Good price for a very nice dining experience.

This is the standard I set all the Trompo tacos at, and yes, it's a very high bar…read more "El Pingüino" sits right in the main plaza in Reynosa, as most of you may already know. They bring out a paper-menu and a pencil, you simply fill in how many orders you want, Trompo tacos are singles, though. Been eating here since I can remember, not much has changed inside. And the food is just stellar every time. Trompo is super tender and full of flavor, authentic. Red salsa and limes are a must. I also order the "Bistec con Queso" a sort of Philly-cheese taco without the peppers. It is phenomenal! Seasoning on point, cheese is rich and creamy. And the tortilla is the star of the show, honestly. You can put any meat on those tortillas and you'll have a beautiful taco. Can't wait to stop by again on my next vacation, maybe in the summer, God willing.

We were immediately brought chips and salsas. They were wonderful. We started with ribeye nuggets. They came in a large molcajete filled with guacamole. Very nice presentation. We ordered flautas that came in a bowl filled with a wonderful tasting tomato sauce and cheese. I ordered the enchiladas Suizas (green) that came with beans and avocado. I really did not like this as much as the flautas. The ribeye nuggets were so tender and had perfect seasoning. I would recommend coming here. There are several restaurants at this location and they even have someone making sure your car is safe.

The burger was good el panzon, however the establishment try to fix it by providing a free desert but didnt ask they brought a desert which i dont like. I ask them why wouldn't you ask me what type of desert would i like for the first inconvenience they manager said we did our part to offer a desert to show how sorry we were. Just not very good customer service is it a cultural? Unsure but will not be returning as my bill was over 2100 mx pesos and felt my business was not appreciated or they were truly sorry for the issue.

Los Jaibos is a great little restaurant but with a misleading name and decor…read more Apparently it started as a seafood restaurant, so the walls are painted blue with marine life depicted. However somewhere along the way they decided that was not working, so they changed the menu. They now offer a delicious traditional Mexican buffet: You will find a variety of guisos of chicken, beef and pork. Chicken in cream sauce, mole or chile sauce; a few kinds beef (the carne guisada was my favorite); pork in green sauce or adobada; cueritos en salsa; chile rellenos; veggies, rice, beans, noodles, a simple salad bar, various fresh fruits and dessert. Basically, most everything but seafood. They have bottled soda pop drinks, bottled water, or aguas frescas. Prices are reasonable. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. Service was good. There is limited parking in the front. Inside, the restaurant is air-conditioned and comfortable. It was not fancy, nor do I consider it exceptional, but it was MUCH better than Golden Corral in my opinion. I enjoyed it and believe you will too.
