Everything about this place way okay. Nothing was gross. Nothing was amazing. The food was pretty…read morebasic. And after my husband and his friends raved, I was pretty disappointed. We came here during a trip to Corpus Christi and tried this place out, because Mexican buffet sounded interesting. I can tell you, it's okay to miss the Mexican buffet. The waitress didn't come out often and she did mess up orders on our table, so that was slightly frustrating. I definitely did not get refills on my drink. She was not rude, which is a plus, just not available and the place was pretty dead, which made it annoying. The place is old and in need of an upgrade of some sort, since old hole in the wall charm only works if the food is amazing. I think if you're starving and this is the last place on earth, fine you will survive. I just think that Refugio has to have better restaurants.

Don't bother with the buffet. It's not good. Staff is terribly unfriendly. Been there twice and I…read morejust can't anymore. Bathrooms. lol. All I'm gonna say is check them out(at least the women's). Reminds me of an old school locker room. But shove tortillas in your nose first.

Don't want to call it a problem just wish they'd cut(scored) the back of the flounder so the batter wouldn't just come off. I know some will say there ain't much but there's enough to eat and not waste. The salsa needs a lil extra few peppers/kick but eh still good. Other than that it was good.Micheladas were also good.

I ordered their barbacoa plate with homemade corn tortillas. I am picky about my barbacoa and I've had bad barbacoa and this barbacoa was close to perfection as it was spiced to perfection and not even close to being stringy or dry. My over-easy eggs were also cooked to perfection. Plus one ordered her usual migas plate and exclaimed that this plate was also fantastic. There was enough food on her plate to easily split and it was a shame that even with my assistance we could only finish about two-thirds of the serving. Service was on point as we never lacked water or coffee refills. I also liked that a variety of sauces were provided with our meal. If you find yourself in Kenedy go where the locals go-to Taqueria Los Potros de Jalisco for a marvelous breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

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.

After searching online for places with strong ratings (4.5 stars or higher), we decided to try…read moreGuajillos. Unfortunately, our experience didn't match the reviews. I'm not a professional food critic, but I do know seasoning, regional Mexican flavors, and what well‑prepared food should taste like -- and this just wasn't it for us. The restaurant didn't feel well-kept, and it appeared that only one server and one cook were working, plus we and another couple were the only ones there. We were served chips and salsa to start. The salsa, a taquera‑style orange sauce, was actually the best part of the meal. The chips, however, were extremely hard, not fresh, and definitely not warm. They looked house‑made, but whatever they were fried in made them almost inedible. I ordered the ribeye street tacos, and the steak was overcooked, had an odd taste, and wasn't enjoyable. I asked for extra cilantro and onions, which didn't happen, and the chimichurri they brought out was basically oil with a few seasonings floating in it. I almost complimented the Dr Pepper because it had a unique sweetness -- until I realized why. The red glass had visible staining on the inside. When I wiped the rim with my napkin, it came off dirty. They also don't offer straws, so whatever residue was in that glass is what you end up drinking. Between the food quality, the cleanliness concerns, and the overall condition of the restaurant, this was a no for us. How this place has earned such high mentions is honestly beyond me.

Food was delicious. -Menudo (5/5) was full of flavor and so much tripes; fresh diced onion and cilantro along with fresh lime was chef's kiss. -Steak fajita plate (5/5) was huge. Steak was made well and tender. Rice was flavorful so was the received beans. Comes with some lettuce and guacamole too. -Carne asada taco (5/5) - very simple dish and the steak was the star of the show. Generous Portion of meat. For the price, this is a must. We even order 2 extra to-go! -Horchata (5/5) cheap and huge cup! Great flavor! Overall, it was a good choice for our stop during our road-trip. The folks here are very friendly. Service was quick. And for the price, this one is the winner! Also, they have great chips and salsa for all guests!
