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!

I prefer the green salsa, not a fan of the red. This place is not Tex-Mex so their offering might be a little different. For a quick snack I sometimes get the Tostitos Preparados. If I get a late start to my day I still get my tacos at lunch.
