This is my preferred Mexican Restaurant Locally. Casual dinning or Lunch. Come as you are. Owner operated, and bless their heart they are always there. Great Salsa Oh FYI, if you like Hot Sauce, ask for the Chimi Churi sauce. Hot and Delicious. The Fajita Chimichangas , is outstanding! Much I could say. read more

Inconsistent, I think my chili relleno's were microwaved because the sauce was watery and it was cold in the middle. Salsa is mediocre, both the red and the green read more

Loyal customer for years, food has always been good but have only really ever gotten tacos or the quesadilla loco. The last two times we've ordered to go the owner told us our food would be ready in 10 minutes but we stood in the waiting area for over an hour and there was a group of 5 of us waiting. The owner didn't seemed too worried or really care. Unfortunately not going to be going back anymore, off to find a new taco joint. read more

HIDDEN GEM food absolutely amazing very impressed with quality and price. Got the Burrito Texacona ( pretty big ) wife got the sour cream chicken enchiladas and we shared a quesabirra taco ( wish we ordered more than one ) salsa lacked heat but was good in taste. WILL BE BACK read more

Street tacos! Steak! Best food at a Mexican restaurant ever! Clean and colorful decor.

Salsa tastes like tomato's, no flavor and no heat. The beef in the enchiladas was dried out and uneatable, tasted like it was several days old. read more

Very good Mexican food always great service. I always get the chicken fajitas with beans and rice chips and salsa. It is very good place too eat. I have always been satisfied here. read more

I called in a order last night for two orders of nachos they were so gross. I had to throw them away I got there right before closing time . I called today and they said I should have took them back. They were already closed. How am I supposed to do that. I will never order from them again. read more

My favorite Mexican food. Prices are not too bad, the food seems authentic, but it's difficult to do special orders. , I don't hear well so the language/accents sometimes get in the way. I do wish there was one in Sherman! read more

Great Tex-Mex favorites with good quality food at an exceptional value! Kid friendly with something for everyone.

We have been here several times now. The food is tasty. I have a limited diet and they have plenty of options for me. I like their enchiladas, the burritos are good, and fajitas are plentiful and well seasoned. Generous sides, too. All the staff are friendly and accommodating. Tonight we were running late and showed up 20 minutes before closing and they were still inviting and did not make us feel rushed. (We did order quickly and tried to be cognizant of our time as we knew they were close to closing.) Definitely recommend. read more

I've defended this place to my husband so many times. No more. It took a good bit to be seated as they took a while to clean tables, food was long in getting to us and was cold. Very disappointed. read more

Good food! Fresh, and worth the trip! I've always had great food and service there! Good atmosphere and always busy

We were very dissapointed with the food . The taste of the food was horrible. I ordered the 3 choice which I chose the enchilada,beef taco, chicken chalupas. My rice, salsa lacked flavor. The waitress was very rude, didn't return anymore. The waitstaff needs more training . This place is a waste of time and money. What happened to authentic Mexican restaurants. read more

Excellent traditional Tex-Mex. Tacos, Burritos, Enchiladas, Quesadillas, and Nachos. All of it is tremendous with large portions. Wonderful attentive services from the staff. read more

Stopped in here with a client for a business lunch (chosen by them as I'm not from the area). It's a cute building with lots of spaced out seating, a large bar area, and music played at a reasonable volume (which is ideal for conversations!) Our group was greeted warmly and seated at a table with a bench side and chair side. We ordered beverages, queso, and chips with salsa. The queso is super good. I'm a sucker for cheese. You get a large portion and we sucked that bowl down in record time. The meals were tasty for everyone with great portions. Wonderful service! read more

Their salsa is so good, with fresh hot chips! Family owned and Luis the owner is there everyday to make sure it is a quality dining experience! Chicken enchiladas are chock full of shredded chicken or you can get fajita chicken in them. Great place for lunch and Dinner! read more

Food was terrible had no flavor we had a party of 6 from the time they brought out the first persons meal till the last person had all their food was 20 minutes. And orders where wrong. Don't ever order a cheese quesadilla because all you will get is some nasty cheese melted in a standard size store bought tortilla. The salsa and queso were just dead tasting. read more

This is a great restaurant! Ice cold beer! Margaritas! Happy Hour 4-7pm their fajitas are wonderful! They have recently expanded their kitchen which allows food to come out quicker! It's great for a quick lunch or date night! Or just a family dinner! There hasn't been anything I've tried that has let me down! read more

The good reviews are from three months ago which makes me think the cooks have changed over. I ordered a tamale, beef burrito with rice and beans. That should be a typical easy to make Mexican meal. Unfortunately, I threw away $40 that day and will never return or recommend. read more

Food is ok, don't order any dishes that says it's sirloin steak on the menu. I ordered the carne picante plate and the meat was not sirloin! It was a cheap cut of meat and it was super tough! They don't serve it but they change sirloin prices! read more

Just FYI, chili rellienos typically come with ground beef inside. Or at least let me know it's just cheese. 2 Small little things with just cheese inside. Rice and beans. read more

This was recommended by iron root distillers, amazing and delicious food. Great prices. I had the pick 3 combo. My hubby had the California steak burrito. The queso was yummy. I had a couple top shelf margaritas! Very good! We will be back on our next Bourbon run! Don't forget the sopapillas read more

this is an old building, hidden away at 75 and 120 behind some other buildings. the Food and the service is phenomenal. You're Hispanic foods are authentic and you know more than get your order out of your mouth when it seems like they're bringing the food already Yet they never rush you Inside, the furnishings are a little rustic but once you go there a few times and you get to know everybody I think they're all related I'm not sure but they seem like a family and they make you feel like family. You will not be disappointed! read more

Went there this past Saturday My first impression was the salsa was not very good watery. Chips were good. We ordered and my burrito lacked flavor and bland no spice at all ordered extra jalapenos to try to bring some heat. No the place was clean. And our waitress was ok nothing to brag about. Lighting made it hard to see the menu Will probably give it another chance some time down the road. read more

We decided a little later than usual to head out to dinner and to give Picante Taco a try. Wow! The place was packed and full of life. We only waited about ten minutes for a table. Great atmosphere. I love the lighting and the ambiance. The staff were warm and friendly. I ordered Enchiladas Mexicanas which is three different enchiladas and a good sampler for a first visit. It came out in good time and was hot and delicious! We will definitely be back and I am thinking this will become one of our favorite Mexican restaurants in Denison. read more

Food was really good. We had to go with the tacos, since it's in the name of the restaurant. I had steak street tacos and my wife had pork. We both tried a crispy beef taco, too. Very good! Service was great. Our waitress was very attentive and engaging. Place was clean and decorated just right. Would go again. read more

Perfect white people taco night food! No sauces for street tacos... they offer salsa.. and that's when I was out - I should have known by the cheese they added to them. But hey- the owner and staff are nice and friendly so that's always a plus. I'll still be back either way! read more

This is actually the best Mexican food restaurant in the area, in my opinion! The food tastes fresh and not microwaved and they have lots of options! read more

If you haven't tried Picante Taco you're missing out!! This place is great! This is I think my 4th time & it never disappoints Food is always super tasty, friendly service, great Happy Hour specials plus the food prices are very fair. Closed Mondays, open all the other days till 9p. read more
