    Look at the beans served to an adult... ugh and meh terrible !!!!!

    There is NOOOOO way these reviews are real!!! This is chorizo and potato plate for an ADULT!! looks more like a cheap-greasy terrible kids meal. The beans are terrible runny and about one tablespoons worth. The service was meh. The ambiance was mediocre at best...

    Doesn't look like your regular dine spot but a old service station converted to a restaurant. Your drinks are served in 32oz plastic pitchers to quench your thirst. The food full of flavor and delicious. Hope y'all enjoy this spot as much as I did.

    A Mexican breakfast meal.

    Husbands favorite Mexican breakfast. We go every Saturday. The French toast and omelettes are my favorite. Fun to watch them make the tortillas. Friendly servers. Restrooms but clean.

    An old gas station converted into a restaurant. The food was amazing and the portions were very generous. I was originally going to get a shrimp cocktail as a meal but since it's fresh it would've taken longer, and we were in a hurry. There's no refills on most drinks but they're served in larger glasses, so I didn't actually need one like I usually do. I definitely do recommend this place if you love Mexican food and you're looking for an inexpensive restaurant in the area.

    My drink! Too cool!!

    Authentic Mexican food! Very good! Had the menudo...but needed LOTS of lemon for flavor. Plates are a good size and the tortillas are homemade! Only con was that my glass was dirty when I got my water.

    Just had brunch here this morning for the first time! It was delicious!! There was a line, but for Sunday mid morning it wasn't bad, and we were seated promptly. The tea was delicious, and the Denver omelette was great! Two eggs, bell peppers, ham, onions, and cheddar cheese and hash browns. It comes with toast but i opted for a biscuit. The restaurant is very colorful and fun!

    Hubby and I had breakfast here after dropping our RV off for service. It was about 10AM. As we pulled into the parking lot, I had to look twice as I thought we were at a gas station. After closer inspection I see it must be a converted gas station. I almost departed but due to positive reviews and hunger I went in. I was totally surprised as the restaurant is very cute. About 30 square tables for 4 all topped in brightly colored cloths. The walls painted yellow and the decor very cute. Hubby and I both ordered huevos rancheros and were not disappointed. It is hard to mess that up. But what surprised me was the basket of crispy fresh chips and warm salsa that canes with the order. The tortillas could not have been fresher as we watched a woman make them as we waited. A friendly man took our order and I wondered how his white shirt could look so crisp and clean as he worked as server, greeter, and bussed tables. This is a good place to eat. We were the only "gringos" in the place of about 16 at that time of day. But we are used to that here in the valley where we live.

    Huevos a la mexicana were delish. I really wanted to order potatoes then was delighted when my plate was served with potatoes! Score!!!

    I couldn't wait to eat breakfast in the RGV since this is my hometown! We walked into this place and there was a fiesta of music going on at like volume 10!!! I didn't expect it to be Ponchos style in there. The music was too loud for my taste. We asked if it could be lowered (diva status) ---- they obliged. How nice! There was a lady working the tortillas like no ones business so you know them tortillas were fresh!!!! The waiter was nice. The breakfast was hot and yummy. The salsa was flavorful!!! It was a great breakfast. Omg!! One more thing, the water and drinks are served in like a mini pitcher. I thought it was cute. Lol.

    One of my favorites! Delicious authentic Mexican food.They have two locations but, I definitely prefer this one. Home-made tortillas that you can see being made right in front you. Love their sweet tea & hot salsa. The staff is always super friendly & attentive.

    I've  been here twice for breakfast and the food Feels like my grand mother just made it for me, highly recommended

    Okaaaay McAllen I see you! I came out here on a Friday night around 8pm, the place was lively, good…read moremusic on the speakers and it instantly felt like the weekend. With no reservation, I was asked to kindly take a seat in the small waiting area to clear a table. I was instantly greeted with a friendly smile and felt welcomed. I was seated within 5 minutes. I had a late lunch and wasn't super hungry. I couldn't pass up the refried beans and chips since they were wafting in my vicinity, no regrets though, the chips were on the lighter side (not super hard like a tostada) and crispy and you could taste the manteca in the beans which made me smile. Según, I had no intention on eating but I couldn't pass up the aguachile as it came to my table. Twas delightful! The only regret I had at that point was not bringing my appetite. Onto the drinks. Wanted to start off "light" and the Paloma was perfect and refreshing. Not too much on the squirt side, not amargoso (bitter) and the right amount of tequila. During the night they abruptly announced that they were running a 2 for 1 shot special along with LMFAO's "Shots" song and you almost feel obliged to order (marketing genius). I was feeling adventurous and decided not to ask what each shot entailed, but rather to go based off the name. I went with the Perla Negra and for the presentation itself it was worth ordering. All in all, this place is a MUST for your Friday night warm up. Como dice terminator: I'll be back.

    We were a party of 10 that made reservations for 6pm. We all showed up and the space was nice. Lots…read moreof TV's everywhere and it had music playing. Waiter came and took our orders for drinks and we all started making our selections for food. The chips and salsa they bring out complementary are so good. We did have to wait because they were making a fresh batch but it was worth the wait. We all had a round of drinks and then put in our order for food and it was about 7pm already. Our waiter then came up to the table and asked us if we would mind moving because they had a reservation at 8pm for the area that they chose to sit us in. We were kind of annoyed by that because we had called the day before to make our reservations. We said I guess thinking it was going to be close to 8 that they would move us. Nope about 5-10 mins passed and he came by and asked us if we would mind moving already before our food came out. Considering that again we had a reservation and they knew it was a large party they should have blocked out more than just 2 hrs for us to be there. We moved and the very least they could have done for us is offer a free dessert on the house for the table but they didn't. Now I ordered the flautas which were served on a bead of beans. The menu said shredded chicken but we were told they didn't have chicken they only had beef so I ordered it. The flautes were lacking flavor and probably could have been saved by adding salt to them and the beans but they don't have that at any of the table. I did try some of my friends chicharrones and those were really good. We left around 8:15-8:20 and there was no one that showed up where we were originally sitting... so we could have just stayed where they originally sat us. We left feeling very annoyed.

    I've been craving chilaquiles since yesterday. I'm in a short work trip in the area and found this…read moreplace here in Yelp with pretty good reviews. This place doesn't disappoint, I love everything, from the clean modern yet inviting ambiance to the café de olla and the Chilaquiles! I ordered the Mini Reketes: chilaquiles divorciados (red and green salsa) which come with shredded chicken. I added queso panela asado and chicharrón with mixed salsa... DELICIOSO! And to top everything else, the service was kind and friendly, as soon as I let Nancy know it was my first time here they walked me through the options and what they are known for. But that's not all, I came in hungry and left satisfied AND motivated by their kind personal note in my coffee cup and inspired by their place matt. If you are in McAllen and surrounding areas you need to try this place!

My favorite is the Tacos Llorarás (you will cry taco) which features a handmade corn tortillas stuffed with a chile relleno made of jalapeño and cream cheese, plus a flavorful beef birria. Add your garnish and salsa of choice, and if the heat of the chile doesn't make you cry, you will eventually cry if you cannot return soon. It's that good! Drinks are either Jamaica (aguas frescas style). This location is right across the road from the Sam's Club on South Jackson Road. There is additional parking in the back. Family friendly.
