With that being said, we were on our way back home from DFW and we were starving and desperately looking for somewhere delicious but still close to I20. We stumbled upon this delightful family owned restaurant. Granted, we showed up 30 mins before closing but I'm so glad we took a chance on this place. When you drive up, you're going to be skeptical BUT DON'T BE and it was a little warm in there but the food was so good, we hardly noticed. Everyone was polite and I could literally see her cooking our food fresh. They got us seated, served and fed so quickly that we overate and waddled our way out. We will definitely be back and if I could give them more stars, I would have. My husband has officially given it a giant belly rub and 10/10.

Not sure if there was a language barrier, but we didn't get what we ordered. I ordered Yolanda's Enchiladas with ground beef, which were good but the cheese on top was thick and hard. After a few bites, it was cheese overload. My wife's chicken fajitas were also good. Then it went south from there. My granddaughter's kid's steak quesadillas was missing the steak and the two orders of Pollo Poblano were not that. Instead of poblano sauce, the chicken was covered in grilled onions. With three of the dinners came flour or corn tortillas. We ordered one flour and two corn and were given all corn. Not the best experience and definitely won't order take out again.

We walked in and there was only one table empty. I noticed it was a little dirty, but there was a wet rag on the table, so I picked it up and wiped the table and benches. We were eating our meal and my husband said "There is a wet towel on that table, but another one fell on the floor". So, we sat there waiting on the ticket and the waitress sure did pick it up off the floor and wiped the table with the same dirty rag. I'm glad i had finished my meal, but I, for 1, will not go back there. The floor was very dirty.

Margaritas and an appetizer. We got our margaritas at 5:15 ($8 ea) and the Guac/Queso combo ($14) at 5:17. Eric was definitely on the ball. The chicharrones were still snapping and popping and sizzling when they arrived. Hot, fresh, crispy and delicious. We also ordered a bowl of soup and a cup of Caballero beans. Eric gave us 7 minutes to enjoy the app before bringing it out. We finished our margaritas and cashed out around 5:40. Eric had gotten another table, so I felt better knowing that we weren't going to be his only tip. Appetizers for 2: $47

I knew I needed to have a homemade tortilla, so I got a single brisket taco. The tortilla was soft and squishy, the brisket properly fatty, well seasoned, and it was topped with cheddar cheese, grilled onions & pickled jalapeños.

Nice service and a really good atmosphere. I'd be happy to come back.
