The kind of local spot you wish you had in your hometown…read more We visit friends in Gatesville regularly, and New Rodeo is their weekly staple. After eating here on every single trip, it's easy to see why. There is no pretense here--just genuinely good, authentic food and a comfortable, homey atmosphere. The meal always starts strong with great chips and fresh salsa, and the service is wonderful from the moment you sit down. As for the food, it is consistently excellent. Brian swears by the #49 (the bacon-wrapped shrimp) and loved it just as much this time around. I ordered the taco salad with chicken fajita meat, and it was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and completely satisfying. If you are in the area and want a rock-solid meal that delivers every time, this is the place to go. It is a local favorite for all the right reasons.

So full of ingredients and even though I drive 45 minutes away to get home, they are always hot still. The salsa is also delicious.

Over in the area for a country drive, did a quick Yelp check for a good Tex-Mex place for lunch…read more More than one review mentioned "locals like it", and we were sold. Plenty of parking, right off the main road, and more room inside than it appears. Waitress was on the job, excellent friendly service, was right there to take drink orders, and checked up on us throughout the meal. They were actually standing there waiting for us to sit with the chips and salsa. Definitely had the look of a local favorite, we were there after the lunch rush, I'm sure it's packed on weekend nights. All the food came out really fast, but was all fresh, tasty, and hit the spot. The menu had tons of variety, will take multiple visits to work through. That Texas staple, sweet tea, was especially good, had a lot of flavour served in large glasses. Would almost be worth stopping in during the summer just for some of the tea! Really nice space for a meal, and very friendly service!

Four kinds of salsa The verde and Diablo are fantastic but wait, if you mix them they are close to perfection! Such nice sweet waitstaff. They indulged my Spanish and so move to my daughter! Over two days, We tried hamburger, queso, chips and salsas, migas were heavenly, beef fajita plate, chicken tacos Refried beans were excellent They serve cold beer too Ambiance was acceptable Simple decor with nothing crazy Tables Booths A drive through Very busy place so the locals are e enjoying the place I highly recommend you stop in this joint, eat some food and ask for the verde and Diablo sauce!!

Flavored or regular. Woo hoo!!! The first time we went I got the brisket tacos. The flavor was great and the meat was tender. The second time we went we got the chicken rice dip. Wow who would have ever thought to put Mexican rice topped with queso and fajita chicken meat. It was delish!!!! They served it with tortillas and chips. I loved it. I also tried the new fajita nachos. It was absolutely amazing as well. We also got the fajitas for two the last time and it was so much meat! The meat had great flavor. It was so much food. Our only complaint was that it literally came with 4 small tortillas and when we asked for a couple more they were going to charge us. There was no way even if we filled the tortillas to the top that 4 would be plenty. It's a pretty small space, but every time we have been there we didn't have to wait. That isn't saying that there wasn't a bunch of people, I am simply saying we picked good times to go. Ha ha The wait staff are all very friendly and accommodating. Overall it has been great experiences.

Our waiter was good but his English was not so good. But that's fine. He tried really hard. I was a little disappointed in the food. I got Supreme Enchiladas and my wife cheese enchiladas. It was pretty good but not the best I've ever had. It just didn't seem all that spicy. Hard to put my finger on it. Coming from South Texas we are used to spicy Tex-Mex. They do give you large portions.

It's a small restaurant with seating and take out. Good music playing, friendly staff, and GREAT FOOD. This is one place that is the secret food jewel sitting in Gatesville, TX, and the locals don't want you to know about. My friends and I are from CA, and they now live in Texas, and we know our Mexican food having eaten from the time it was introduced to us in babyhood. Mi Mexico Grill serves the traditional plates typical of other restaurants: burritos, fajitas, enchiladas, and so on. AND these are huge portions for a under $10.00 price. Okay, now here is the thing: I was there in January 2011, and asked a staff member for the address because I wanted to write about this place and spread the word. I have finally gotten around to it: I've held onto this address throughout a trip to Mexico, Cayman Islands Jamaica, South Korea, India, States, the Middle East, and now back in South Korea. Why? I think this place was fabulous, and I give it a five star for food and cleanliness and friendliness.

There are two Los Agaves locations in Gatesville, one on the highway and one on Main St. I…read morerecommend the Main St location as the Highway location recently hired new cooks and the flavor is definitely lacking compared to what it once was. The salsa here is out of this world! The service, average, and the price is also average. This is a great restaurant for you and your coworkers wanting a quick lunch that is fairly predictable.

We waited around 30 minutes for our food even though the restaurant wasn't busy at all. After such a long wait, we expected everything to be correct, but that wasn't the case. We ordered six tacos with no lettuce, yet two of them still came with lettuce. The tacos were also incredibly soggy, making them messy and unappetizing to eat. On top of that, we never received our Cinnamon Twists, even though we paid for them. The overall service was disappointing. There was very little communication about the wait, and no sense of urgency despite the restaurant not being crowded. For the amount of money we spent, we expected fresh food, an accurate order, and decent customer service. Instead, we left frustrated and feeling like our time and money were wasted. I hope management takes these issues seriously and works on improving both the quality of the food and the customer service so other customers don't have the same experience
