Finally some authentic Mexican food ! The waiter asked me what I wanted to eat as soon as I sat down. I informed her that I needed time to look over the menu .The salsa striked a perfect balance with the flavorful and spicy! I order a beef chalupa and it didn't take long to cook. When my plate came I was surprised to see such a large quantity. This dish was love at first bite. Everything was absolutely perfect and seasoned well. I have zero complaints about my food. I will definitely go back here in a heartbeat.. read more

My family had a great Saturday afternoon lunch. Everyone enjoyed the chips and queso. We ordered the beef fajitas, I loved that it was onions, mushrooms, and grilled carrots that came with the meat. I thought that was a nice twist. My husband enjoyed the seafood tostadas. The two stars of the show though were the bar drinks! And the beef empanadas. The empanadas are made fresh in house. Those are something to write home about. Everyone really enjoyed their martinis and margaritas as well! The restaurant is really clean. The servers were very sweet. We will definitely be back, for a drink, chips and queso, and empanadas : ) read more

Ade was hands-down one of the best servers I've ever had. Truly phenomenal. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, welcoming, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. Our drinks were outstanding, her recommendations were spot-on, and she made the entire experience feel effortless and fun. We're visiting Texas from California to see family, and this was our first time dining here. After reading some mixed reviews beforehand, I was unsure what to expect--but I honestly don't understand the negativity at all. Seating was quick, service was fast, and everything ran smoothly. The food took slightly longer than I'm used to, but it wasn't long at all--and once it arrived, it was absolutely worth it. The food was fantastic, and if people experienced longer waits, I imagine they came during a much busier time. Ade truly made this experience exceptional. Her energy, professionalism, and attention to detail elevated everything. If you're lucky enough to have her as your server, you're in great hands. This was an amazing first dining experience in Texas, and if I am to visit again in Texas we'll definitely be back--hopefully with Ade again! read more

Had lunch at Nena's Cazuelas today. First visit. Three couples with a variety of meals from Migas (me), to taco salad (my wife), giant burrito, Tex-Mex burrito, jalapeño soup. Overall food was very good; there were no complaints. Tortilla chips were fresh and crispy, with outstanding salsa with a nice bite to it. Service was prompt and friendly. Ambiance is typical for a strip mall. Will definitely go back. read more

Food is great. Try their tacos el pastor but everyone who goes likes the food. Service is wonderful and their happy hour is good. Try the pina colada! read more

Nena's was not a planned stop but when there are hungry children around and the restaurant you had planned to go to had a seriously long wait you look for any port in a storm. Fortunately, Yelp came through and we rerouted to Nena's for dinner. We walked in and while the main dining room was a little full they opened the dining area and we were the only ones there so it was quiet. The menu was a combination of Tex-Mex and traditional. I saw they had Caldo de Res and immediately ordered that along with their Jamaica. The soup was delicious, warm for body and soul; it was that good. I haven't been up to Georgetown in a while but it might be good enough reason to go. read more

Excellent. Real Mexican Food. Would recommend this restaurant. Great location. Right off I-35 S in Georgetown. Easy off easy on.

This place is fantastic in every way possible. The food is amazing- seasoned very well in all aspects, hot sauces are excellent. The service here is also first rate, very friendly and accommodating. Clean and inviting, great for dine in or carry out. Highly recommend!! read more

Fake tortillas, no seasoning, and a total letdown. How do you have a Mexican restaurant with FAKE TORTILLAS??? From the moment our food arrived, it was clear this was going to be a disaster. The tortillas tasted store-bought and rubbery, and absolutely nothing was seasoned--just bland, lifeless food across the board. The fajitas were dry with no seasoning. The beans were especially awful. My son never got his food & we were done eating, it never came out. Everything was wrong as well. Our bill was $160 for food that tasted a** To make things worse, the service was just as bad. Our service was super slow. One of our orders was wrong and never corrected because no one came back to check on us until it was time to drop the bill. I left feeling disappointed, ignored, and ripped off. I won't be back--and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. read more

I usually like this place but today I was very disappointed. We ordered fajitas for two. Received a platter of mostly vegetables. Very little beef and certainly not enough for two. Service was bad too. After our food was brought to the table we never saw the waiter again. Even though our tea glasses sat there empty the whole time. read more

We found this place when looking for a good burrito; it is one of the restaurants closest to where we live, so we were hoping for a promising experience. First and foremost, I tried the giant burrito with carne asada ($11.99) which was not bad, but not the greatest I've had. The tortilla has nice burn marks, which makes me happy as the tortillas are warmed up and feel homemade. The avocados are also a good touch. Overall, the filling is okay and nothing to ride home about. Prices are a little higher than what I would expect for a place like this. Their green salsa is not bad and their red salsa is okay. These are nothing special. They try to give you only one sauce for a giant burrito and get really stingy when it comes to giving you additional sauces and charge $0.50, which I think for a burrito is pretty unwarranted. For that reason of nitpicking and the fact there are many other options is why I would not return unless I was desperate. Ambiance is not bad and service cannot be commented on, since we haven't dined in here. read more

No. Arrived at about 1:00 pm on a Sunday for lunch. Waited 45 minutes for our meal, saw another table served first. There were 3 of us, including my 92 year old mother in law who ordered menudo. Husband ordered Nina's fajita dinner, I ordered pork in a green tomatillo sauce, with corn tortillas. My food was excellent and the tortillas were home made and excellent. Husband's meal barely had any meat - it was mostly bell pepper, onion, nopales, and jalapeños. About 15% was meat. Very little rice and beans. Menudo was good. We all had lemonade. Total bill was $73.58. (Lemonade was $6 per glass.) No one offered us more chips or salsa or even water or anything while we waited and no one apologized for the extremely long wait time. I wanted to walk out, but husband wanted to try out the food. We heard someone say that they were short staffed in the kitchen. We saw 4 waitresses and 1 bartender. When we asked our waitress to check on our food as she sped by, she said they were serving a large table first and our food should come out soon. Another table of 2 men were served before us. They had arrived much later than us and had Micheladas. Waitress ignored us until the food came. When it did, my dish only had a tablespoon and when I asked for a knife and fork, she said no one asks for that when they order that dish! It wasn't soup, it was pork meat chunks with 2 pork ribs and beans. Unbelievable that I had to request a fork and a knife to eat it with. Our waitress never smiled, seemed upset at us, although we never complained. Terrible service. Don't waste your time going to this restaurant. No ambience. Photos are not accurate. Our lemonade glass was plastic and only the plates were clay. No colorful table cloths, nothing authentic Mexican on the tables. Music over speakers was sporadic. No one cleared our table while we sat there with condensation from the lemonade forming puddles on the table. Waitress stood about 6 or 8 feet away and asked several times while we were eating if we needed anything else, without approaching our table. She kept her distance and ignored the condition of the table and the empty glasses. After we motioned for her to bring our check, a different waitress cleared the table and brought over our check. At this price point, there are many other welcoming restaurants in Georgetown with better ambience, food and service. Oh, and did I mention no one opened the door for us as we were walking out arm in arm trying to help my mother in law who was visibly having a difficult time walking? We will certainly not be returning. I do NOT recommend this restaurant. One star only because my meal tasted well. read more

So I've had several dishes from this restaurant. It's authentic Mexican, not Texmex, this dish is hands down one of the best I've had. Amazing flavors, the pork is soft and the guajillo sauce is very tasty. Just wish they would include Mexican rice. They only offer beans, refried or de la olla. (Whole bean) The tortillas are home made. You have a choice of Tomatillo or Guajillo sauce, Def recommended the guajillo. Try it, won't disappoint It's a bit expensive than your traditional Mexican restaurant. But definitely worth it read more

Solid experience for my first visit. The place was hopping on a Sunday morning! The huevos divorciados were pretty good, the addition of ham underneath was a nice surprise, I have not seen that before. Prices reasonable. Extensive menu, I look forward to trying some other options. read more

We went to this restaurant for Mother's Day. This is an extremely authentic Mexican restaurant. On the walls you can find artwork reflecting The day of the dead holiday. There are many wooden tables and a few booths. Everyone who worked there was very friendly. They have high chairs for babies. The food was good, not the best I've tasted. I had taquitos, which I was impressed to find in Texas. I felt they were over cooked and they were not served with guacamole, instead they were served with a hot sauce. My son had empanadas, he did not care for them. My daughter had shrimp flautas, and they were good. My other son had a sandwich, and he seem to enjoy it, but none of the food was the best we've ever tasted. This is a good place to go for a casual lunch. I would not go here for a holiday or a date. All in all, a decent restaurant. read more

We stumbled upon this restaurant after getting coffee. We were greeted immediately and the ambiance was cute. We were told to sit at a table with the number 2 and shortly after a server greeted us. We got chips and salsa when our waters were placed on the table and we ordered our food. I got the taco bowl and my husband ordered the tacos. Both were great and filling! The chips had a shred of lettuce which made me question how sanitary it was in the kitchen. I would come back here because of how tasty and authentic the food is. I paid at the front and the meal was very affordable. I will definitely come back here for breakfast and dinner. We enjoyed our meal and got a warm welcome here. I could see parking being hard to find on a busy evening but we were able to park right in the front no problem. read more

I will not recommend this place. They share a wall with my veterinarian and so many times they have their music so loud the bass pounds -- so unnecessary and nerve racking. They make a difficult work environment for the staff as well as the animals. Not good neighbors and ignore requests to lower the music. read more

A bit of a mixed bag here, but overall pretty good! No complaints about the food. The Pastor is the best I've tasted since I left CA! My problem was with the service. It was difficult to communicate with our waiter. I wanted to get a pastor burrito to go with only meat in it. He couldn't understand that concept at all. Next time I'll try at the register. We also felt the service lacked a bit, because there was no follow up on how our food was, topping off water glasses, and we had to ask a couple of times for our check. But as I said, the food was hot & fresh, and that was the most important thing! read more

Disappointing food, worse service, and sneaky billing! From start to finish, this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. The staff was unwelcoming, the atmosphere was dingy, and our server blatantly ignored us even though the restaurant was nearly empty with just three other groups of diners. One of our orders was wrong and never corrected because no one returned to the table until the bill arrived. The food wasn't very tasty (the beans were gross), and they still added gratuity for a party of only four, which felt sneaky and completely unjustified. I left feeling disappointed and cheated--definitely won't be back. read more

Chips and salsa was good. Rest was mid at best. Not enough sauce on chimichangas or the flautas. Rice seemed overcooked and beans were too mushy. read more

There were cameras and it was dark and no liner in chip basket so ten million percent go here if you like small authentic places. I'm only knocking off one star bc their chips are addictive and they didn't refill the basket enough and we only got two waters for four people. I'll still be back though! read more

The food has a great authentic flavor and the drinks are fantastic because there was such variety! The staff was also very kind and helpful. The Mojarra was crispy and perfectly seasoned, the empanadas were unique and perfect balance of shrimp and cheese. The best in town! The ambiance was perfectly cool from the outside heat!! It wasn't too cold like the when it stings your legs when AC is SOoooo cold! read more

Good food. Good service. We had queso and guacamole and chips to start. Chicken enchiladas were good.

This place is basically around the corner from me. I was hanging out with a Half Mexican Boy, so we went there for Lunch. He knew EVERYTHING!! The Food was Great, the Service was Phenomenal, but I didn't even notice the Ambiance, because my Boy Stole my eyes!! (This is the part where you say, "AWWW~!" HAHA) I wish, I knew Nena before my visit, here!! read more

How did I not know about this place living in Georgetown since 2016!? The service was personable and it was a take out order! The food is seasoned so well! From opening the container the smell is AMAZING!! My picky 8 & 10 year old kids SMASHED every piece of food on their plate! I ordered the mole chicken enchiladas and the Tex Mex burrito. I will definitely return! read more

This was a great find...looks small from the outside but is quite spacious indoors...Service was friendly but it did take a bit for the food to come out but the quality made up for the wait. The Choriqueso was quite good and the tortillas were fresh. Salsa had a bite of heat. Wife went with the Flautas which were seriously some of the best she has had...very light and crispy and packed full of delicious ground beef. The presentation of my plate was fantastic. All chicken with 3 sauces which were all great. Beans were on point and we both really liked the rice. They have a lot of menu items to choose from so we have marked this for a return trip. read more

We had a women's group gathering there a month or so ago and they were amazing. Food was great and they did such a great job with service.

Ordered a couple dozen breakfast tacos for the crew. The crew was very happy. Fast and Delicious! Thank you!

The food is so fresh and healthy! This is not typical Tex-Mex. It's more like food I've enjoyed n Mexico.

I'm not sure I can quite captivate how strongly I feel about this review. My experience could not have been better. The food was superb - from the punctuality of the delicious homemade chips and salsa to the steaming Pechuga en Achiote plate. 10/10 Service was phenomenal. You know the food is gonna bang when the owner delivers it to the table. Lastly, the place was very clean and organized. That a necessity for me. They know what they are doing over there and I will be back, frequently. read more

The food here is amazing, and the portions are true Texas sized. The tortillas should be a food group unto themselves. The salsas are flavorful with just the right amount of heat to clear the sinuses. everything is clean and looks well cared for, including the hanging gourd lights and paintings they have everywhere. The service is second to none. read more

Great food and excellent service -- efficient and very friendly. I'm tempted to gatekeep, because I don't want them to get too popular / busy, but the place is big -- lots of seating, and I want them to stay around!! read more

$70 for 3 soups and 4 single tacos. $20 for 4 tacos with limes ($18 with no limes) Don't waste your money and your time here. Bad service as well, I stood at front counter for 10 minutes before I was attended to, and there was only 1 other diner there (also waiting for his to go order) No gasten su Dinero aqui, $70 por 3 caldos y 4 tacos. $20 para los cuatro tacos, pero $18 sin Limon. read more

Hidden gem. Good food and drinks - really love the chicken empanadas. Lots of choices and authentic!

My daughter and I decided to try this restaurant. The food and service was amazing. Chips, salsa and fajitas were delicious! Some of the best Mexican food I've had in 20+ years! read more

We ordered the fajita platter for two. The meat both chicken and beef were tough and looked like it came from the frozen section in a bag. The onions, bell peppers, mushrooms and carrots. Yea mushrooms and carrots that were cooked with the meat looked like a birds Eye medley from the grocery store. Nothing was grilled. I've never had carrots and mushrooms in Fajitas. The rice had another Birds Eye medley of carrots peas and corn mixed in. The beans were bland pinto beans cooked in water nothing else. The queso was white Velveeta type cheese with nothing added to it...microwaved. Service was good, ambiance nothing special. Terrible food for the $$$$$. read more

Delicious and now my favorite Mexican food in town! The enchiladas, tamales and fajitas are my favorite!

Food was awesome. Pozole was different than what I'm used to -- clear broth instead of red. The server was so sweet! The food took quite a while to get to us, though. read more
