Our first taste of this authentic Mexican food in the restaurant near the end of Cayce Road (if…read morecoming from 302) was this past Saturday. I had the empanadas (spelling?). One stuffed with crab, the other with chopped shrimps, side order of beans and rice. They were superb. The breading resembled a crepe it was so tender--not hard like most I've had. The red sauce was excellent as well as the salsa de Verde. My wife chose tilapia tacos, they were bigger than most served to us with a generous helping of fish in each of the soft tortillas. The chips were served with their house salsa as well as a bean dip that was tempting. The finish to the meal was a creamy flan with whipped cream and a cherry on top. With future temptations like--like tacos with tripe and Barria meat, stuffed shrimp, and a wealth of other seafood dishes, I can't wait for next time!

I typically get the La Hacienda chicken tacos or Chicken torta. Kiddos love the grilled shrimp! I like adding sour cream and/or Jalapeños to the tacos. Pick up orders have always been good too with short wait times. The environment is relaxed, and there's a lot of space. They have several TVs set to closed captioning. Some in English, some in Spanish. They do have an accessible sized stall in the women's restroom. A smaller wheelchair or crutches could get through but maybe not a larger one. Plenty of space in the dining room, and tables are easily moved if needed for access or larger groups. The employees are always super kind! They are very good with kiddos! They speak English and Spanish!

I was in the area and I love Mexican food, so I decided to try La Perla. I ordered some basic items…read morewhich included a hard shell taco, cheese enchilada and a cheese quesadilla. I'm not sure what type of cheese they use for those items but I'm a fan. I think it's monterey jack, but I appreciate the thicker shreds. One thing I noticed immediately after taking a bit of the taco is that they season their ground beef. As hard as it is to believe, a lot of Mexican restaurants don't season their ground beef....or at least not as well as La Perla. I see the same workers every time I go, so I assume it's a family owned spot. The service is good and food comes out quick. One of my favorites in the area for sure.

So much that I usually make little happy dances and pleasure sounds while eating. I don't even care who sees me either. There is more soul in this little gas station restaurant than anywhere within twenty miles. This is Soul Food at its best. You may ask how I can call Mexican food, Soul Food...? Here is my take... Soul Food, to me, is much more than a "type of food". Don't get me crooked, I am all about some OxTail's, Smothered Pork Chops, Chicken & Dressing, Turkey Necks, Greens, Cornbread, etc. etc. etc. It's about food made with love, by people who love to make food, with techniques and seasonings handed down through generations of good people. That is what you get here! Every time I eat here I am filled with the love of the folks in the kitchen as well as their ancestors. It's a small family business, and Tony is one of the greatest people you will ever meet. He is so happy to be in his little section of this gas station slinging this heavenly food. I drive 40 minutes each way from work to eat here and as soon as I leave I cannot wait to get back. It's that damn good! Everything is great, but you have to try the Carnitas! Life changing flavor! Seriously! '24 - 6/100

Booya's does a great job making delicious food customized for you. You go to the counter to place…read moreyour order and select your toppings as they make it. Guacamole costs extra. It's one place that doesn't skimp on filling a taco if you only want meat inside without any other contents. What can be improved is that their fresh-brewed teas are tossed well BEFORE closing time thus check before you pay for a drink if you're within 30-40 minutes of close. I personally don't drink soda fountain drinks thus no other options were available besides their free water. Tip: Save some money by bringing back a clean Booya's cup(s) for a discounted refill price on your next visit.

The Burritos Rancheros come with unique vegetables inside, such as broccoli and carrots. The meat inside was ok but I wasn't fond of the queso inside. I was impressed with the variety of vegetables (lots of red bell peppers, some green bell peppers, onions, some mushrooms and some slices of squash) that come with the fajitas but none of the meats impressed me so it's not something I would want to get again. The Pollo Norteño isn't on the menu but they can still make it. I personally enjoyed it without the shrimp so I bet they already have something similar without the shrimp.
