    Sloppy fajitas. Anyone giving this place 5 stars is not very intelligent IMO.
    William F.

    You know that old saying "If you can't say something nice then don't say anything at all"? Ummm Yeah, I'm gonna toss some of that out the window for a minute. Now, I knew should have checked the Yelp reviews before going into this place but the parking lot was packed when I drove by on my way to get a hotel room so I came back for dinner afterwards. Immediately after entering the door and being greeted, I wasn't instilled with any confidence about my decision to eat here. It took the waitress about 3-4 minutes tops to take my drink order. She asked if I wanted chips and what type of hot sauce so I told her the hottest they have. She brought back my water with lemons, a basket of semi-stale chips (they weren't very crisp). The hot sauce was really good though so I thought to myself maybe it won't be so bad. WRONG!!! After about ten minutes she finishes talking with someone she was familiar with at a table behind me and asks me what I wanted to order. I chose beef fajitas with corn tortillas. She asked if I wanted rice or beans. I said both to which I was informed it would be an additional $1; I said that's ok I don't mind. She refilled my hot sauce and this time it wasn't as good as the first. It had the consistency or texture of ketchup mixed with a can of Rotel; definitely was not the same. After a while she brought me the plate of fajitas and a knife but no tortillas, fork or napkins. She said to me she was going to get my tortillas and I watched her walk to the kitchen, tell them she needed tortillas and then back to the table to chat with her friends. Meanwhile I am just sitting there with no fork to eat my food so I used chips to scoop up some beans and rice which were not awesome and what few bites I took of them were the last. I wouldn't feed the beans and rice to dog!!! I sat there contemplating just walking out and not eating there. I heard another waitress tell her that the kitchen wanted her so she left her friends' table, went up to the window and brought back my tortillas at which time I informed her that I still didn't have a fork or napkins. There was no apology for the oversight but she did bring them to me along with a small bowl of extra lemons and more water which was sort of redeeming for her. The fajita meat was seasoned well but was not cut in strips just odd chunks. The peppers and onions were not cooked as much as most restaurants do for fajitas. There was no shredded cheese but there was pico de gallo and guacamole. Neither of which were that great. The food here was mediocre to below average and the service really lousy. I honestly have no idea why anyone would give this place 5 stars unless they are just used to eating slop! Don't waste your time or money on this place. If there's an award for the ABSOLUTE WORST MEXICAN FOOD in Texas, I nominate this joint.

    I love the Spanish Inn, in part because it was my Grandmother's favorite restaurant and I've been coming here for as long as I can remember. :) But also, because I'm a big proponent of Tex-Mex as its own regional cuisine, and this IS Tex-Mex. (It's not interior Mexican, it's not Cali-Mex, it's based on the region where it was born. Hate to see people "hate on it" because of that.) My daughter and I stopped in for some delicious (unnecessary, lol) cincos nachos and two Spanish Inn Specials. The Men's Special was always Grandmother's favorite and the only difference between the two is the chalupa, the SI Special features a guacamole chalupa (which is STUPID good) where the Men's has a beef, bean & cheese chalupa. We were going light, I guess. ;) Both the green beef enchilada and beef & cheese relleno were on point. The enchilada's green sauce is a bit different than most, with a great pronounced tomatillo tang, and their rellenos are my favorite type - breaded & fried, not egg-wrapped. Really, really good. And their tacos are so good (if sometimes a little over-fried), they do them dorados style, where they're stuffed with beef then deep fried. I love them! The table salsa has never been my favorite, but it'll do, and seems better than in the past, tbh. And it's so good drizzled into the tacos. But finally, the quiet, unassuming star of the plate... the guac chalupa? HOW is this thing that good? Both my daughter and I were stuffed, but kept going back for one more bite of the chalupa. I don't get it. But you should. I am a huge fan and will be for life.

    Queso and salsa!

    We visit the Spanish Inn every time we are in the area. Great food and friendly staff! This is a family owned business and you can tell they take pride in their craft. The dining area is always clean and the bathrooms are squeaky clean as well. No complaints here. If your in the area swing by and gitcha' sum grub!

    It was the best of the best amazing food by the amazing people!…read morewe came here with a group of 15 and everyone had enjoyed the this place.

    Really wanted to enjoy this place, but unfortunately it left us wanting much more…read more Positives first- Our server Erika- very sweet and attentive! The chips and salsa (can't screw that up usually) Now.... The not so wonderful First- we ordered the Queso Fundido... and it was prepared with chorizo- which we love! Unfortunately, they don't drain the excess grease off, so that's really all you taste and the other flavors are masked by an overwhelming amount of fat. The flour tortillas that came with it had good flavor, but were hard and seemed to have been prepped long ago and stored in its aluminum sleeve for quite some time. Second, I ordered the grilled chicken soft corn tacos with no oil on the tortillas (while prepping); I was brought out Carnitas - Erika was awesome and changed it, but the kitchen prepped fast (I'm guessing), and the grilled chicken was more like chopped up chicken on a flat top mixed with some marinade??? (see picture), and the corn tortillas now were soaked in grease and oil I went ahead and ate some of my husband's chicken that came with his fajitas. One of the servers, a man- perhaps a manager, came by and noticed that a lot of food was not being eaten and asked if there was anything he could get for us. He offered more tortillas (seeing mine) and I said "sure, can I get just some dry corn tortillas?" And he was great- brought some out quickly, but then by the end of the meal, we noticed we got charged for them . Overall, this is the 4th Mexican restaurant we've tried here in Snyder, and sadly, we probably won't return.
