Mi Pueblo: a little Tex-Mex eatery halfway between Expressway 96 and Business 96. If you don't feel like the usual burger or barbecue, it's an option to try. Management makes it a point to bring the sights of south of the border to Silsbee. Murals of the scenery and the chicas. Rancheiro music plays. Okay, so the wait staff are nearly all Gringos, but who cares? They're good with their service, and that's what counts. I had a chimichanga covered with queso, with refried beans & rice. It was good and beefy, but small for $12.95. In contrast, the Hunny and I celebrated Mothers Day at a different Mexican place, and for the same price, I got a burrito 12 inches wide. This chimichanga was what, 5 inches? So Mi Pueblo is good but overpriced. In solid three star territory. It's an option. read more

Went here for Mother's Day with the family. Found a roach in the nachos, the server was great, but the manager Maria and the owner Mark Gonzales were rude and dismissive. The owner said, "isn't the first time, won't be the last." Obviously quality and customer don't matter here. Their only solution was to remove the nachos from ticket, when no one in the party was able to even finish their meals. The most most appropriate recourse would have been to comp the entire ticket, or at least discount a significant amount. Not looking for a free meal, just looking for a meal we could actually eat with no bugs in it. read more

Not a whole lot of restaurants in Silsbee, but the ones we have tried were a whole lot better that this one, by far. Not one salad offering something sweet. I ended up with Kid's chicken nuggets. No Honey Mustard, no mustard, but they did have Honey. Nothing like eating pressed chicken. My hub's food was awful to him. Mind you he is 3rd generation American Hispanic. Prices were ridiculously high and even though I had 5 Kid's nuggets, no fries and no drink, we were charged an adult price, never-mind I am 65...wait staff was OK. Not go out of the way type of help... read more

Mi Pueblo - the entrance to a mexican restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Silsbee, Texas

The good here has been very good with what we've tried so far. The enchiladas, rice and beans, and tacos have been really good. Their Queso and chips are really good too! I like to have a side of pickled jalapenos to go with my chips and queso, but they are a little stingy with the jalapeno slices. They bring then to you in a very small plastic catsup type cup. That's not enough. I tried their Carne Guisada the other night and it was very good! The wait staff for being very young are very good and on top of things, and very attentive and friendly. read more

Great service. Food taste good. DO NOT GET FAJITAS. The lunch portion for under $15 is the same size as the regular at $18. Less than 4oz of steak. To get enough food for one you'd have to get multiple orders. Very disappointing in portions read more

Love Mi Pueblo! The Pechuga de Pollo is the best item on the menu in my opinion. Fajita Chicken with queso covering it, charro beans and rice... delicious. The servers are always nice and make a great cherry coke! The restaurant has a normal Tex-Mex restaurant atmosphere and is enjoyable to see the wooden structures and paint scheme. read more

Food is pretty good. The service staff I encountered was awesome. My server was very accommodating and knowledgeable of the menu and specials. She was the perfect amount of taking care of you, without overcrowding the conversation. I will come back here again. Wish I could remember the name of that server, truly awesome. read more

Good food, but no atmosphere, no margaritas. Kind of like eating at a Mexican school cafeteria.

My family met up here for a weekend lunch. The staff was very attentive, especially Kinsey our waitress. The food was delicious. I recommend the fried mushrooms. read more

Delicious enchilada rice and beans. Super fast service and enchanting environment. Great servers!

Slow service. Food isn't great and for the price.... Don't get me wrong it isn't bad food. Not by any means.

Terrible service very rude one of the ladies tried to charge us for stuff we didn't even ask for then had a terrible attitude

Hi! I have read the bad reviews and the good reviews, and I think a lot of it has to do with expectations. My family and I like eating at both Mi Pueblos. The food is usually tasty and fresh and the service is usually excellent. Everyone has an off day, you know? Unless you just really hated the food, I encourage everyone that was not happy to give them a second chance. We eat there about once a month and have never had a bad meal or incompetent server. Jmo, Thanks! read more

Great place to eat! We know the owner Victor & really think lots of him! Food is always served hot as well as fresh! Even their ice tea is good & this will keep us going back along with their food! read more

Only thing nice I have to say is about service being friendly. Dish I had seemed to be fried, frozen then microwaved. Cut into it and cold water ran out. Ewwww. Chips were good but salsa mediocre. Hubby was ok with his meal but not pleased. Not returning. read more

If you want Casa Ole food, but don't want to go to Casa Ole, this is your place. The food is average Tex-Mex at best, prices are a little high. For whatever reason they are always busy, so service can be slow. Not the worst Tex-Mex out there, but nothing special. read more

First time to eat here. The food was very good and our server, Alex, was awesome! We will definitely go back.

Been here three times so far and it has been very good service and all. Not sure what the few complainers are about. Some folks are never satisfied. read more

Both meals were horrible. The chips weren't the best and the taco bowl had old lettuce and toppings on it. The best part of the meal was the drink. read more

Initially this place sounded promising because of the other reviews I have read, but it seems because there are few to no other Mexican restaurants in the area, that there is nothing to compare it to. Upon pulling up late in the afternoon, there were quite a few cars in the parking lot; a good sign so far. The building itself seemed typical at first, but then I noticed the decorated doors with it's hand hewn western ranch theme; not so typical because it seemed more campy than anything; I gave them a 'B' for effort anyway. The place had some energy about it which was nice. The host never asked me, nor my dining companion if we wanted a booth or a table and led us to a table. Upon stating we prefered a booth he led us through the middle of the floor, between tables, to a booth on the opposite side of the room rather than one in the area where we previously were; odd. Odd too, was that I never saw a single person of Latin decent or otherwise Mexican. Possibly the kitchen staff was Mexican but I am doubting it at this point. Our server seemed energetic and I ordered a house margarita; this restaurant did not have a liquor or beer license. My immediate thought was, was that this establishment was in a dry county; nope. This place seemed large enough, and popular enough to support having a liquor/beer license, but I'll dismiss it for now; I ordered an iced-tea instead. Chips were brought out along with two identical bowls of salsa. The salsa was served cold, tasted fresh but leaned toward the "a bit hot" side, no other dip was offered for anyone who would have preferred something more mild. In no less than 5 minutes our entree was brought out. That was fast; too fast. I would have preferred to linger over the chips and salsa a bit longer. My skillet sizzled, it had a nice mound shape to it and it smelled great. Upon looking closer, I could barely see chicken or beef. I had to shuffle the mounds of onions and peppers around with my fork to find anything. The meat seemed a bit scarce on my plate. Upon rolling my first tortilla and taking my first bite, the contents were over seasoned with fresh black pepper. Black pepper was the only seasoning, aside from maybe salt, that I could taste. I love black pepper and this was fresh black pepper, but it was all I could taste and it was leaving a burn in my mouth. Upon eating my third, and last tortilla, leaving no meat behind, I was left with a mound of carmalized onions and peppers. In other restaurants I would have sufficent of meat and vegetables to constitute a leftover; not the case here. A disappointment for the moderate price I paid. Our server laid our bill on the table and I was left wondering whether or not the server would take it or if I had to take it up. I laid my card out but no takers. I walked up to the register with nobody standing behind it. I young lady seemed to have popped up from a booth or table wearing a hoodie. I greeted her, handed her our bill and she said the total. I handed her my card and signed the receipt. Never once did she ask me if everything was okay. Based on my first time experience, I would say that this place has some potential; it clearly needs some fine tuning, a liquor license and a wi-fi hot spot since the metal roof shielded any cell phone reception. I will give it another chance in the not so distant future. read more

I can honestly say that Mí Pueblo is the best Mexican restaurant I have been to. Their cheese enchiladas are fantastic. Their queso is top notch. Their chips and salsa are amazing. I've been to many different Mexican restaurants up and down the east coast and none can compare. If you want to eat Mexican food, go to Mí Pueblo. You won't regret it. read more

Best Lunch Fajitas in all of Southeast Texas. Very affordable and quick. Great service.

I lived across the street from Mi Pubelo for a few years and went there at least once a week. Even now that I've moved a town away I always go back there. It's delicious and the service is always fast and friendly. The prices are also great for such amazing food! read more

Food was ok. Service is horrible. We were never sitted and had to seat ourselves. Then I wanted an order to go and was told that the kitchen was closed after a table was just seated. I will never eat here again. Extremely disappointed read more

This is by far the worst excuse for Mexican food that I have had Taco Bell has better food but it's my fault for eating there I should have seen it as a red flag when you go to a Mexican restaurant and there are no Mexicans never again read more

I have never given a bad review and really hate to do it but when a roach crawls on my table and I tell waitress and she acts like its no big deal... Well you won't see me there again. I am very disappointed and hope that they tend to the problem! read more

We have eaten here several times. Good food, good service. Cons: Parking is tight caused by a lot of customers. I will be back. read more

I wish I could speak Spanish so I could give this restaurant a proper review. The salsa is so good, you can pour it over ice and drink it. My only complaint (and it's a selfish one) is that they're not open on Sunday evening. I respect that they aren't, but after church I sure could go for a burrito or two! Eat here and you'll never eat casa Olay again. read more

Great little Tex-Mex restaurant! This place has the neatest Mexican/Ranch themed decor (the owner is a local Rancher) and is very lively and fun! Servers are exceptionally attentive, and they all work together well, making your dining experience a pleasure. In the few minutes after we were seated, we already had our chips and hot sauce, which is NOT AT ALL too hot, as stated by another reviewer, I mean come on! There were little KIDS digging into their own sauce at tables all around us. I guess some people think ketchup is hot. Whatever. Quickly got our drinks, and placed our orders, and I must say, my tea glass never went empty. Food came out in 5 minutes, piping hot and super fresh! Cheese enchiladas were great, and my taco had fresh, spicy, lean ground beef, with lettuce and ripe red tomatoes, and some grated cheddar on top. Beans and rice were delicious too! I HIGHLY recommend giving Mi Pueblo a try. My entire meal was only 9 dollars, and I ate every bit of it. Portions are just right. Now mind you, this is not an upscale, cloth napkin, high dollar Mexican Restaurant, but it's FAR from a "hole in the wall" place either. Oh! I almost forgot about the Queso! Fantastic!! Real creamy cheese loaded with green chiles and a little bit of cooked celery maybe? Anyway, we ordered a small and wished we had gotten a large, it was so good! Omg....after writing this review, now I'm craving Mexican food. Think we'll be stopping by there for lunch today! read more

3 people on staff standing around coloring while we waited to be seated with more than half the place empty. Food taste like it was poured out of a can. Carne Guisada had less meat than a taco bell burrito and was more bland. I asked the waitress repeatedly for hot sauce, she said they didn't have any kind of hot sauce. She barely spoke English so i asked another one, same response. I've had better Mexican food in a frozen box from Wal-Mart. read more

The service here is SO fast that I thought for a split second that I must have received someone else's order. Lovely waitresses. Super attendant. Get the burrito rio grande. That's what I got and it was gigantic, fresh and delicious. read more

Very good food and service, for a small town like Silsbee it is very good, will go back

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant--bar none!! The best salsa and the best refried beans I have ever eaten anywhere! Just fresh and delicious! Sorry but I gobbled up everything too fast to post pictures. Maybe next time I can control myself! If they took American Express I would have given them 5 stars! read more

Good local Mexican food. Casual comfortable dining. Best tacos great queso cheese dip, fajitas & cheese enchiladas very good. Quick service

Terrible experience. Nachos to go. Nachos were burnt taco shells half hazardous broken apart. The cheese was not queso but shredded and shabby cheddar. I said no beans and beans were on it. Why not just say you're out of chips and queso. Never again! read more

Perfect! Quick service and excellent food. To the other reviewer....I love the fact they don't serve alcohol at Mi Pueblo. The owner personally comes by and checks on the customers. We love Mi Pueblo!!!! read more

We normally love this place but today we entered an almost empty restaurant and asked for a booth in the back. Instead the hostess seated us right in the middle of the traffic flow near the front entrance door. read more

Mi Pueblo is the BEST Mexican restaurant around. We don't live in Silsbee but we go to Walmart there at lease once a week. Then we just drive down the road and eat at Mi Pueblo. The food is GREAT, the service is OUTSTANDING, and the prices are VERY REASONABLE!!!! LOVE the food, the owners, and the waitresses/waitors!!!! read more

This is by far the best Mexican restaurant around. The food is excellent, the service is fast and friendly, the owner makes rounds to tables asking about your meal, etc. We go here as often as we can and the prices are unbeatable !! read more
