    Barbacoa Burrito (Rice and Beans on the side) + Chicken Quesadillas
    Amanda G.

    Great local spot! So many delicious options and hearty proportions. Service was super friendly.

    Everything they make is traditional Mexican cuisine. #parachuparselosdedos service is great. They treat you like you're the favorite niece, aunt or uncle. The restaurant has been upgraded a couple of times giving it a ln efficient and homely ambiance. Best place in Central Texas. Make sure you're hungry when you order the tacos. They are giant.

    wo cups of food

    Again.. another place I wanted to like, we got several tacos that looked delicious, enchiladas, and a elote. The tacos and enchiladas had very little flavor, and the elote was dry, very little crema, and some cheese. They're pretty quick with the food tho, and the prices weren't bad. Just wish the food had more flavor.

    Came from south Texas going to college here in Waco. Never found a good breakfast place and finally found the best in Waco that reminds me of home. Called in my order and was ready as I went to the drive thru. Thank you lupitas!

    The breakfast taquitos are to die for. These type of restaurants are true gems. What a great find.

    Breakfast chorizo burrito was an absolute slam dunk. Service and the authentic Mexican atmosphere was fantastic.

    Refried beans were watery and the salsa was too watery. They only take cash and it doesn't say that

The ladies are very nice and always get the food out quickly. The breakfast tacos are great, and I do think the fajita tacos and quesadilla are pretty delicious as well. Their red and green salsas are the bomb!

The waitress was sweet, but remained slow throughout the entire meal. Our waitress never offered drink refills, and we waited extended periods for a to-go box and our check before finally going to the cashier ourselves. The biggest issue was a strong sewage-like odor coming from the restroom area. We were seated nearby, and every time the bathroom doors opened, the smell drifted into the dining room. Even the handwashing station in the dining area had the same unpleasant odor. The food looked great when it arrived, and the chips and salsa seemed fresh. However, I was disappointed to learn they no longer serve guacamole with their fajitas. The chicken fajitas arrived sizzling hot, but became very dry as they cooled. They were spicy, but lacked much flavor. The rice and beans were good. Overall, between the slow service, unpleasant smell, and mediocre food, I would not return or recommend this restaurant. There are plenty of other Mexican restaurants in Waco that I'd try before coming back here.

Also, I got the yucca chips which came with three different sauces. That were just a perfect compliment. Then I had the beef empanada that came with a spiced cheese sauce, refried beans and some amazing rice. Normally when I get stuff like that, I'll just skip the rice and beans... But these were amazing. The rice cooked perfectly it wasn't overcooked or mushy. And the refried beans was smooth yet tasty. Not bland. The empanadas were handmade tortillas that were created and the deep-fried and came on a bed of shredded cabbage, which kept it from getting mushy on the bottom and allowed for the empanada to cool without becoming soggy. And the sauce is the cheese pickled onions on top were just an amazing combination. And then I had gotten the tacos and I thought it was like one taco each, but each taco was like huge. I got a chicken mole taco, and I got al paster pork taco, and finally I got a shrimp taco. Thinking they would be small, but they came on lettuce and we're all amazing and fresh. He asked me if I thought I was gonna eat all this by myself and I was laughing and think one empanada ...no, it came with three. And the tacos came with came with an amazing fresh piece of watermelon seasoned with spices. It was an amazing feast. He is such a gifted Chef. The seating is in the union so it's like a big hub where you can try different kinds of restaurants. And I walked around for a while before I pick this one, but his food just looks so fresh and tasty and it was. I am so glad I picked him. Definitely gonna have to come back and try the rest of his food and I suggest that you give him a try to cause this place is amazing and needs to be experienced. And don't miss dessert... The churros and ice cream are amazing
