We love Spanish Inn! Our favorite salsa is the thin one with the fresh onions and tomatoes--it's so good! The service is always outstanding, and the food never disappoints. Our favorites are the Spanish Inn Special, the chicken flautas, the ladies special, and the tacos. The taco meat is fried right in the shell, giving it incredible flavor and crunch. We also love the rice! It's completely different from the typical red Spanish rice you find at most restaurants, and it's absolutely delicious. We only get to eat there when we're in town, so we find ourselves craving it often. We just wish they would publish a cookbook so we could enjoy some of our favorite dishes at home! read more

We were worried at first because there was no one else in the restaurant, but it quickly filled up and I know why. I had the Crispitos and my husband had the chicken fried steak. They both were excellent. The queso was good also. Quick service and our waitress was nice. This will be our new place when we travel through Big Spring. read more

Good was very tasty and actuality hot. Service was great, the young girl busing the tables was so attentive. Not as clean as I like to see but was OK. read more

Been eating there as long as I can remember. Not many family members left in Big Spring but whenever I'm there I eat here!

I love it...the Owners and Staff are kind People! The food is great and clean! They attended our needs...The Super Club, a ride-off of SMMC, still meets and eat different places on Tuesday evenings...I love the restaurant! read more

My first time stopping in tothe Spanish inn. When I was seated I was waited on promptly by server amber. I ordered the vegetarian tacos and an unsweetened ice tea. The food tasted good and was very flavorful. Server amber was warm, welcoming and very attentive. The restaurant itself looked very clean, including the floor and bathrooms. If you're ever stopping through big spring it's definitely a must stop. read more

Spanish Inn Restaurant - sign for spanish inn - Mexican Near Me - Big Spring, Texas

Food had no seasoning, rude waitress. Dark short chopped off hair. Never smiled and rude as heck! Will not be back. Odessa citizen!

Best Mexican food ever. The chili rellanos are amazing and the green beef enchiladas are just iconic. The fried tacos are the best. This is the way Tex-Mex should be. read more

See all

(432) 267-5871 In case you need the phone number. Excellent place for TExMex. This is where the locals go when they come home read more

The service was extremely slow and the food was not what we expected. The tacos had zero flavor....NONE. The enchiladas were watery and bland....Nothing had any flavor at all with exception of the salsa which was decent. read more

Mine and my hubs' fav restaurant EVER!! We have both been eating here since we were children so not only is the food great but the comforting memories are there too! Since we no longer live in the area, we get very excited whenever we get the opportunity to eat there! I always get Green Beef Enchiladas and he gets Cheese Enchiladas with Chili and Beef Tacos. They will customize plates however you want them. Love you Spanish Inn!!!! read more

Was in town visiting family and they swear this is the best Mexican place around. As soon as I saw the menu I knew this was one notch above Taco Bell. It's offers traditional Gringo fare smothered in cheese. The chips and salsa were good but they weren't very generous with it. Ordered the fajitas with refried beans and corn tortillas. Inquired about charro beans and Coca Mexicana but the waiter gruffly replied they weren't available. The rest of the family ordered the Green Beef Enchiladas. The food came quickly. My fajitas were decent and the onions and peppers had a nice char. I guess corn tortillas weren't an option that day as I received flour and they were of course tasted store bought. My family's enchiladas were covered in cheese and they mentioned their rellenos were cold. Service was slow and inattentive. Going to the restroom felt like I was entering the catacombs. Don't think I'll be going back. read more

Tried the other Mexican Restaurants in the area. This is by far the best. The food came quick, even though the place was busy. Parking lot was full, and people were parking in the street. When we got inside, there was still plenty of room. The food was hot and tasty. We'll be back. read more

Spanish Inn Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Big Spring, Texas

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. I'm from South Texas. The owner is beyond rude! Over charged food! $40 dollars for 2 plates for the food to be decent. Doesn't follow COVID guidelines, considering I'm PREGNANT with a ONE year old. I will NEVER come here again. read more

Stopped in with my wife, 2 of our kids and 3 of our young grandchildren. The hostess was friendly and seated us all at a large table immediately. Our waitress was prompt in passing out the menu's and taking our drink orders. She was great at helping everyone with their questions and taking our orders. The food arrived quickly and was hot and delicious. The huevos rancheros were excellent. The bacon was crispy and the eggs were cooked perfectly. The salsa tasted great and had a nice bite. The cheese enchiladas were as good as any we have ever eaten. Their french fries are home made and the children loved them. If we're ever visiting Big Spring again we'll definitely return to the Spanish Inn. read more

I love this place! I don't know why their reviews aren't better! Their service is always great. The food is fast and good! Salsa is great! Order the spicy guiso! read more

Everything is always cooked excellent, the cheese is always overflowing, and the sauces are cash. I love this place and always have. No matter what you order it's going to be tasty (at least that's my experience). The service is pretty good. One of the only good Mexican places in town. read more

The only reason this place got two stars was for the service. Went at lunch and ordered the lunch special which consisted of a chile relleno, beef enchilada and a guacamole chalupa. The "beef" was fatty ground meat with absolutely no seasoning. No cumin, no chili powder, garlic, black pepper... nothing. The cheese used was not inside the enchilada or relleno, but was poured on top of the dish and had a very thin consistency amounting to watered down Velveeta. If this is what passes for Texmex in Big Spring, I'll pass and go to Taco Villa which is gourmet compared to this place. read more

Very good food and reasonable prices. I love their red cheese enchiladas. I don't know how authentic the food is, but the service is exceptional and the portion sizes are great. In my opinion, this is one of the best restaurants in Big Spring. Everything is consistently good, each and every visit. Check it out if you stop in Big Spring. read more

Grew up eating here! Number one favorite place for Mexican food anywhere! Fried tacos! Real cheese! Delicious dishes broiled in metal platters. This is TexMex as it should be. read more

Fast, friendly and delicious. Have gone a few times while on a lunch at work. Able to eat, enjoy company and get back to work in time. Food is wonderful and the prices are great! read more

Not a bad place for lunch. The food is decent. Along with Mexican food they also serve burgers and a few other items. My wife likes their fries. The atmosphere is typical small town cafe feel. The staff was nice and did a good job. read more

We must have gotten a bad cook or bad visit... after we left a couple of us got sick... No huge issue, it wasn't anything major.

Not the best in Big Spring. Carlos is way better

My husband and I recently moved to Big Spring and have been exploring the local food scene, so far our options have been pretty depressing. A friend recommend The Spanish Inn. We both ordered the Spanish inn meal. The chiles rellenos were mushy and very unappetizing. The ground beef was plain and unseasoned. The chips seemed stale but the salsa was spicy which was great! The waitress was nice but overall it was not a good experience and I would not go back. read more

Food is decent. The service is good except for male waiter who is horrible. He does not refill tea glasses, bring the check in a timely manner and gets the order wrong. He will also bring out food when it is cold. The last time I went I was not given a choice and had to sit in his section if I wanted to stay. I will not be back due to poor service of one individual. read more

Super friendly staff, great customer service, food was really good. Very inexpensive and fast service.

Wow. Great service. The salsa was very spicy and somewhat unique. The beef tips were awesome. I ordered the spicy and they were very tender and just the right amount of kick after we added jalapeños. This place is 65 years old and success for a reason. I cannot dispute 65 years of experience. read more

The green enchiladas were inedible. Served with curdled cream-like cheese sauce. Nothing "green" about them. We gagged on the first bite. When we asked cashier(owner?) to please remove them since we didn't eat them and ordered the mediocre quesadillas instead. She was extremely rude and stormed off to the kitchen. She came back and angrily said nothing was wrong with them. "You can't send something back just because you don't like them." Lady, we almost puked. Absolutely no excuse for blatant rudeness of little blue haired lady. We thought the full parking lot meant it would be good; NOT. Noticed most people ordered American food. French fries on chicken strip platter were raw in the middle. read more

The food was okay but even though I had allowed a $2 tip on an $11 lunch they changed it to $5 when I checked my credit statement. I wont go back theft is theft read more

It was ok I guess. They actually had Chicken Tacos and it was made with white meat ! We went to Carlos's and I tried getting chicken tacos and the waitress said they do not use white meat in their tacos, I asked if it could be substituted with white meat (was told NO by the waitress very snaughty about it) ..... HERE at Spanish Inn they were nice and polite and had more of a family atmosphere, calming comfortable place read more
