I know Mexican food is different in all areas but to me there's nothing like South Texas Mexican breakfast!! The food was so so so delicious and it felt like I was sitting in my grandma's kitchen with family on a Sunday morning eating homemade tortillas and menudo!! This is a must try if you are in the area!!

The "queso" is melted white cheese (similar to mozarella) like you would find inside a quesadilla so you can put it on a tortilla for a cheese roll up but not great for chips. We had the fajita meat and it was tasty. My dad really liked it. We also split a fresh squeezed lemmonade which was really good. Forgot my phone so wasn't able to take any pics :(

The breakfast buffet is only 4.99 (even on the weekend). I wasn't expecting much, given such a low price. They had a variety of breakfast items including, potato and chorizo, potato and egg, bacon and egg, (delcious) chorizo beans, oatmeal, chicharron, AND amazing pozole AND menudo. You could also request plates fresh from the kitchen (including pancakes) at no extra charge. The food was good. My only complaint is that some of the food was only warm (not hot)...with the exception of the menudo and pozole (they were HOT). This is to be expected at any buffet, from my experience. However, for the price, this place is a hidden gem. We'll definitely be back

We were quite fond of their complimentary chips and salsas... so much that they brought out 3 more baskets. Their drinks are also ginormous, we drank some fresh lemonade. I appreciate that they have American and Mexican dishes for both the adult and kids menu. The only item that didn't sit well with my stomach were the refried beans- a little too oily for my liking. Overall, great homemade food and chill vibes.

It was a Wednesday and there were only a couple of other tables occupied. The waitress greeted us and got our drink order. We saw the first plus, it was cheap!! I ordered two chorizo and egg tacos. This was a $2.50 breakfast! So did my father in law. I got flour tortillas and he got corn. My husband got the huevos rancheros. My mother in law got a western omelet. The portions were huge. The tortillas were made fresh. Everything was hot and delicious. The service was great. A little slow for such an empty restaurant but the freshness made it worth the wait. A good and filling meal to set us on the road our next adventure.

I've tasted several plates...the menudo (my fave!), barbacoa, enchiladas, carne guisada....all have been tasty and you always get the "just like my mother made it" taste. They always start you off with chips and salsa...the chips have never been stale and the salsa is usually warm and tastes fresh. The corn and flour tortillas appear to be freshly made which is how they should always be made at any respectable Mexican restaurant. I won't give it the full 5 stars because the food is good...but there's a few places out there with say, better chilaquiles or menudo. But it's still a good place to take your family on a Sunday afternoon to enjoy a nice meal...

This place is a very authentic taste of what Mexican cuisine should be like. We came in for a quick lunch during our break and had two of their lunch specials. They had the Pachucos and the Caldo Tlalpeño on sale for lunch. I believe the pachucos were $5.99 and the Caldo Tlalpeño was $6.49. Both had good taste. The portion of the Caldo was good but the pachucos were a bit of a small portion size. Good thing my wife chose those and not me.....quite frankly I wouldn't have had enough with 3 pachucos, rice and salad. Other than that the place is clean, tasty and fair in price. Come give it a try, you'll be well satisfied.

Guadalajara Express is a pleasant surprise and something unique in Mexican cuisine…read more As there is limited signage, and the establishment is small (cozy), it is easy to miss if you're not alert. It's located just west of Raul Longoria in a strip mall, on the south side of Nolana Loop, next to Magnolia Events. To get into the parking you need to approach it from the west (as if you're coming from the expressway I-69-C), because dividers in the road do not allow a left turn if you're coming from the east. But it is well worth the visit! Guadalajara Express specializes in regional Mexican food from the Guadalajara, Jalisco area. I spent my teen years living in Guadalajara so when I heard about them it got my attention! I love the regional cuisine from Guadalajara and there are several things on their menu you cannot find anywhere else in the Valley. Yet I have often been sorely disappointed with Mexican restaurants as most here "americanize" their food. I am thrilled to say that my worries were needless. Guadalajara Express has authentic regional jaliciense food and do it well. I have been twice. The first time I ordered the "carne en su jugo" and the second time I had the torta ahogada. Both were wonderful! I was especially impressed since I knew it takes a special kind of birote (bread) to make the torta ahogada; the usual "bolillo" does not work. The birote is denser so it won't fall apart when they cover it with salsa. The owners / operators are from Guadalajara (once I tasted their food I could have guessed that). They found a bakery that special bakes the birote for their torta ahogadas. The torta ahogada has a dense, toasted birote, filled with carnitas, then covered with a sauce. Back in the 1970's they used to dunk the torta into the salsa, but nowadays it is ladled on. They ladle on a mild salsa, but provide a cruse filled with super hot salsa made with chile de arbol, use with caution, but it IS authentic! The ambience and decor is beautiful, lots of traditional Mexican "artesanias" many made in Tlaquepaque or Tonala, from the Guadalajara metropolitan area. It is a little cluttered, but pleasant. Both times I went it was very clean, service was exceptional, the food was heavenly. Prices seem a tad high, but considering you won't find their specialty offerings anywhere else, I thought it reasonable. I really enjoyed it and think you will too.
