If you go through my reviews you will see I am a tough yet fair and honest reviewer that travels…read moreeverywhere. I honestly can not say enough wonderful things about this place. This place is what you dream of when you are on the road traveling and need a great meal, fast, for a great price, served by friendly attentive people. I have been in town working for a couple of months and I am here at least twice a week. My advice is to get a combo. I usually get the Texas Plate or Leon's Plate (Both $9). The flour tortillas are house made and very soft and fluffy. I ordered corn tortillas with my lengua tacos one time and they asked, "Do you want store bought or home made?" Is that a real question? Salsa is goofy in the Styrofoam cup, but here's a tip... you can ask for green sauce or a hotter red sauce they are both better than what you initially get. Service is Jimmy Johns fast. Don't plan on having a conversation while you wait for your food. I ordered and within 3 minutes my food came out piping hot. Fantastic flavors and extremely filling. You wont leave hungry. My only nitpick gripe would be the tamales are really good but you can only get them on Leon's Plate. I would love a combo with 1 tamale and 2 tacos of your choice with rice and beans. Best part is the price. I got the Leon's plate and a large Margarita and my tab was $13.52 + tip. Hell yeah...

I've been here a handful of times…read more Visit 1: carne guisada plate ordered through the drive-thru, delicious and love convenience. Visit 2: dined in and ordered carne asada plate, delicious. Visit 3: got breakfast thru the drive thru, chilaquiles with egg mixed in, no salsa ranchera They made the corn tortilla chips very soggy and there were ONIONS which I do not like and which was not disclosed, only ate a quarter or the top layer of the plate. Visit 4: was sick with vomiting so got tortilla soup. Chicken was cooked but not tenderized. I liked the one from Cancun's better. Visit 5: brought hubby here. He commented that carne guisada was overcooked, I tasted and agreed. I put this place to the true test by ordering menudo... and they failed. Menudo tasted like they didn't wash tripas after parboiling them. Each bite was initially good follow up by an uncomfortable, dirty aftertaste. My verdict: not bad, just mid. Maybe some issues with quality control. I'll be back to try the seafood though.

My drink order was taken within a few minutes and my food order when my drink arrived. Ceramic plates, metal utensils, paper napkins. Staff was friendly and courteous. Complimentary chips and salsa. I ordered the Mocajete. Not sure I spelled that correctly. Lots of meats and grilled veggies. Beef, chicken, sausage and shrimp. Inside is very unique and colorful. The chips were thick and crunchy, the salsa spicy but not too spicy. I liked it, The spicing and flavor of my food was Really Good! It was a lot of food for the price. I definitely enjoyed my lunch and will be back. Thank you fellow Yelpers for helping me discover this place!

As a vegan, that made me excited because actual Mexican food usually has less cheese and can be made vegan. The business is quaint. There was a friendly hostess to welcome us in and our server was very hospitable. We ordered the chile relleno without cheese, zucchini in pasilla pepper sauce, and mole verde off the vegetarian options on the menu. We also enjoyed guacamole and chips. Our server was happy to accommodate our vegan modifications and it was really easy to communicate with him. The flavors are just WOW! Hands down the best guacamole of my life. The sauces are vibrant and rich. Everything tasted so fresh. And the prices for this quality of food cannot be beat. My husband and I literally licked sauce off the plates to make sure we did not miss one ounce of that authentic Mexican flavor. This place is top of our list of businesses to visit next time we are in town visiting family. We had an incredible experience and cannot wait to continue to explore the vegetarian menu options.

Unfortunately this place didn't hit for us The floors were…read moresticky and the table we sat at was not cleaned very well. I based my decision to go on how many stars it had. It's one of the only restaurants in the area above 4 stars. The service was good the waiter was attentive and seemed like a good hang but the food was something else. We were served chips and sauce that was delicious no complaints there. But it was when we received our entrees it all went down hill my wife settled for the abodobo shrimp tacos because every thing else she wanted was out of stock and I got the taco platter. The taco platter only really had one decent taco on it the other 2 were lacking flavor and filling. The chorizo taco was decent. The asada taco was lacking flavor and had barely any cilantro and onion and the pastor taco was rubbery and had no flavor whatsoever so ever. Had to drench it in the delectable hot sauce to make it go down a little easier. The shrimp tacos were loaded with shrimp but lacking flavor. Overall I hope this place gets it together it seems like it can be a great spot if it tries hard enough the staff is super friendly and I hope they succeed. Food was rough but the server was great

From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a warm, inviting atmosphere and a beautifully designed space that made for the perfect date spot! We started with the Queso Fundido and Nachos con Carne, both of which were recommended to us--and absolutely did not disappoint! For our main course, we shared the Tacos de Asada and the Birria Lunch Special. Not only was the lunch special a great value, but it also came with some of the best beans I've had in a while-officially my new favorite! Everything we tried was rich in flavor, and I'm already looking forward to coming back to explore more of the menu. If our first visit is any indication, I know we won't be disappointed!

I've never had them served this way but was not disappointed. No horseradish served here, fyi. We also got queso fundido which was delicious- portion seemed small but made three full tacos. Draft beer was cold, Bloody Mary was outstanding. Their specialty cocktails looked amazing. I'd love to try but i was really itching for a bloody that day. Our waiter had to be called for everything, we didn't even get silverware or napkins. When we called we got bar napkins while every other guest had proper utensils. Overall, great experience, I'd go back and sit at the bar next time.

Two foodies from Houston,…read more We were in Corpus Christi and of course we were hungry. Restaurant is in an older building. However, everyone was welcoming and friendly. We ordered Chicken Flautas (chicken rolled up in a corn tortilla that is then fried) and Carne Guisada (stewed beef) which came with fresh flour tortillas (with a browning ingredient- no raw looking tortillas) with two Mexican cokes. While it was not to our liking, everyone had different taste buds. Also, the restaurant did have a good share of customers. Sorry, I didn't take pictures. Give it a try for yourself and let us know which dishes you tired and your thoughts. Happy Eating!

My only complaint would be that the pork chop was probably cooked early and warmed up because we ate late morning. It was just ok. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars. The ranchero sauce is more like regular salsa. My over easy eggs were perfect. The toast is thick like Texas toast and very good. You get two full pieces, cut into triangles. Wife's hash browns very good. Her only complaint is that she likes three pieces of bacon and got two. Our server was excellent. We saw one couple come in and then leave as they must have decided not to wait. It wasn't all that long. Remember what you ordered as they don't give a ticket. Split at the register. They know what food went to the table. They've remodeled since it was Floyd's. Nice inside. Add on's Jack up the price quite a bit so find a meal you can live with as designed.
