    Margarita
    Stephanie W.

    I never write bad reviews. It saddens me to write a negative review of a local restaurant but I feel it is necessary as I will certainly never return and never recommend this restaurant. There are far too many good quality Mexican food restaurants with excellent service on the island to return here for mediocre food and terrible service. Let's start with service. It was just awful. We sat and waited too long for chips and salsa to be served. At least a few minutes. I asked for water at least twice, maybe 3 times and we had to wait forever to receive it. One of the water cups had lettuce in it. Our chip basket was empty for a significant amount of time and we had to flag down the waitress to refill the chips and request more bean dip. There were three of us and we were given two sets of silverware. There were no extra napkins either so my husband and I shared a napkin because extras were never brought out. This was on a Wednesday at 5pm. There were 2-3 other tables seated, so being busy was not the issue. Staffing was not an issue, as there were several waitresses present. Okay, now to food. We ordered margaritas and they looked beautiful but tasted awful. They only offer on the rocks, which is fine. I wanted frozen but tried the rocks. They were sour and the flavor was off. Easily the worst margarita I've had. Two stars for food, otherwise this place deserves none. My tostadas were good. Simple, but good. The "guacamole" on the plates was just avocado with garlic in it. Kinda weird, but fine. One person with us had chicken tacos and the taco meat was severely over cooked and dry and bland. The fajita meat nachos were good. Not great, just good. The worst part of the entire experience was that I ordered a tostada plate. On the menu it says "ALL plates come with rice, beans, and 3 tortillas". Great, right? No. When I requested my tortillas I was told "tostada plate doesn't come with tortillas" I said "the menu says all plates" and was told "not that plate". Umm what? Maybe they should correct the menu, because "all" means "all". The tostada plate is a plate and listed on the page that says tortillas are included. At this point I was upset. She should have just brought out the tortillas instead of arguing with a customer.

    This is my favorite Mexican restaurant on Galveston island. Their food is delicious and the prices are very reasonable. It's a local family owned restaurant. You can taste the love and effort that is put into the food. Everything I've ever tried here is really really good. They have Tex-mex, as well as traditional Mexican dishes, and great seafood options. Everything they have is worth trying. My parents love this place and stop by regularly. I was off work and on the island; had a delicious lunch with them here. Dad had told me good things about the Mexican hamburger. I tried it. Wow! A large fresh made beef patty, Monterrey jack cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, and served with a side of waffle cut fries. I want to stop by and get another one soon. I followed it up with their flan for dessert. They make the best flan. Has a great thick and creamy consistency to it and just right on the sweetness. Love it! If your in Galveston and want some delicious Mexican food for lunch or dinner you must try Los Lazos restaurant. Highly recommended!

    Really enjoy there breakfast. Fresh made chilaquiles were great with chorizo on top. And the cafe never got emptied because of good service. Very close to moody where we were staying and way much cheaper.

    Was starving for lunch after my nail appointment this week and was craving some Mexican food! Decided to try out this place and I'm glad I did!!! Parking was easy when I went around one o'clock but not because it was slow! I was surprised to see lots of tables full of people enjoying lunch like myself. Seated right away and was brought a water and their house made chips and salsa. Loved the salsa and black bean type dip they served! Great amount of spice in the salsa and I'm a big fan of warm salsas so I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the crispy beef tacos and they were sooo tasty! Charro beans we're also very good. Service was quick and on point. I'll definitely return to this place! Great prices and good size portions.

    It has lasted this long for a reason. They offer classic…read moreTexMex dishes at a good price. The staff was friendly and quick to help with everything our party needed. While there may be better Mexican food on the island, this is a solid choice when you're craving comfortable and familiar food.

    Open since 1916, the Original Mexican Cafe is within walking distance from the Port of Galveston…read more My brother and I stopped in for a weekend early breakfast, and we found the service, price, and taste to be good. It opens at 8 am, so we waited around outside until it opened promptly. It has two main dining rooms, one of which was being used for the breakfast crowd. A basket of really good freshly fried thin tortilla chips were given with a decent salsa. We were given a breakfast menu, which had many things I wanted to try. 3 Barbacoa Tacos a la carte ($9.75) - a lot better deal than the plate (2 tacos with rice/beans/potatoes for $11.95). The tacos were good, decent size on a flour tortilla with cilantro, raw onions, and limes. It was decent quality shredded beef: moist and tender with good flavor. Menudo ($9.95) - only served on the weekend, this version was big with a ton of beef tripe (a lot more than there was hominy, which I'm not used to). I like tripe, but this amount was too much for me. The broth was flavorful and rich, and a good remedy for the little cold I had been fighting. Ended up finishing maybe half of it (ate all the hominy though). You pay at the front. Service was friendly throughout, and by the time we were leaving, the place was filling up. Parking is street, and there was plenty of it in the area.
