    Puppy cup for the win!
    Denise D.

    A new find on my search for great tacos!. I took a drive to Stillhouse Hollow Lake to watch the sun set, and on the way out, Taco Cowboy caught my eye. I whipped into the drive thru since I had my dog with me, and ordered up a couple of tacos. The server manning the window offered me a puppy cup of whipped cream for my dog which he greatly appreciated! I had a carnitas soft taco and a pastor soft taco. Both were regular sized, and had excellent texture and flavor.im looking forward to returning for a dine in experience and to try some other menu items. The prices were good too! $2.99 each for the tacos!

    The reviews made this place sound great, so my husband and I were excited to check them out. The atmosphere was bright and colorful. There were only two other tables when we went, so service and seating were easy to get. Neither my husband nor I were expecting plastic cutlery or disposable plates, but it didn't really matter. The chips were good, and the salsa was okay. We like spicy salsa, though. We got the mini taco plate as a kind of appetizer. It was good but needed more acid, like lime or pico. The rice had good flavor, but some of it was undercooked. I wasn't all that interested in the refried beans, so I never had much of that. I liked my husband's chicken enchilada more than my beef, as the meat was a tad dry. We were confused about signing up for membership when we ordered drinks. It wasn't explained well. The food wasn't bad, and the service seemed to truly care about our experience, but overall, neither of us is rearing to return. There are other restaurants in the area we enjoyed more. This is one of those times I wish I could give half stars, but I'll round up because of the service.

    Me and my best friend Whitley decided to stop at this place on a Sunday March 3, 2024 around 4 to 5pm, and I would like to say I would like to start off by talking about our server Maria, she was so amazing, sweet and kind and very helpful. Also, she gave me a little bit of a backstory of the restaurant and I loved that. Secondly, the food that is, there is to die, for I've never had any good authentic Mexican food. It was like a literally a hidden jewel. We just happened to stumble upon it whenever we were leaving the river and decided to stop to grab a bite to eat on our way home. If you haven't been to this place, then I highly suggest you go and check them out.

    Finally got to try the breakfast tacos ! Delicious ! We got 2 Bacon egg cheese tacos, the kids waffle plate and I also had a steak egg and cheese breakfast taco and one el pastor taco with onion and cilantro ! The steak egg cheese taco was amazing ! I tried to take a good pic of the tacos but They were just wrapped in foil and I couldn't get a good Yelp worthy pic! Again, we'll be back taco cowboy ! Oh yea we got a horchata too! Mmm

    Great meals Good prices. Very friendly staff It's a little bit out-of-the-way, but the dining room has Lots of room!!

    Sad ass beef burrito

    It's cute, and the fact servers are kind. The food is really mediocre and everything comes on like fast food plates etc. The "queso" is either velveeta or ballpark cheese which is super disappointing when you want to go to a Mexican restaurant for the queso. Salsa was good but nothing to write home about. Pretty sure the chips are store bought bags. The refried beans are to liquidy and bland. Chicken texano was good. Decent seasoning and cooked well. But again not really a WOW this is good.

    This was the first time that we checked out this restaurant in person and decided to dine in on a Sunday afternoon. When you drive up the place looks like an abandoned hole in the wall dump. For starters the first thing we noticed was a big Bullet Hole in a window with a crack sticking out from where the impact was that goes across the entire window and a junker car that was lifted up and had a missing tire and wheel assembly. If it wasn't for other customers park there we would have assumed that the place was abandoned. Not very safe or appealing looking but we still went inside. We had good experiences with doordash in the past so we wanted to see how good it was in person and we were very disappointed. They served most of the food on disposable containers in the menudo was served in a normal ceramic type Bowl. The portions have really shrunken compared to delivery that we got in the past and the food was mediocre at best. The portion size of the chips is a joke. It's like a toddler size portion of chips divided up for three people makes them look very cheap. The only good thing were the mini tacos that my daughter ordered the meat was very fresh and had a pleasant grilled taste to it. No offer of dessert and only checked on us once or twice. No communication or offer of the ticket and I had to figure out where to pay myself. The table to our right had way better service and they were very attentive with them and offered them about five times the amount of chips that they gave us including Chips To Go but did not offer us the same. I hope they improve and get back to the caliber that they had when they first opened because this was really a disappointment. We still tip the server 20% of our check because she was really polite but she was not very attentive and consistent with the service that she gave other people and the food was a disappointment overall.

Service was pretty questionable. It was too way noisy inside so we had to practically yell at one another sitting across the table. We were a party of 6, and 3 of our orders got wrong. 2 of the orders were wrong because of miscommunication, which is fine, wish the waitress would have clarified the food before putting it in. Biggest problem is that when we asked the waitress about the food, she started arguing with us. Not okay with an argument from the staff, which is too bad because this was a first time experience for part of our party, and they won't be coming back. Not sure we'd be going back, and we've come here a handful of times. Food was good. Flautas, steak ranchero, trio enchiladas, and chicken enchilada verdes. Also got uncharged for meat that we didn't ask for, wanted regular shredded chicken not chicken fajita, this was also told to the waitress when ordering and cooked wrong. Also make sure if you're paying with a credit card, have them take off the non-cash adjustment. They automatically put it on the checks, and unless you know about it, they will still charge you it.
