Great staff , very attentive and checked in on us often. I had no idea it was a Mexican restaurant, with a name like "lunch box," I thought they served chicken salad and potato chips. Nor did I know they served breakfast. Food was solidly El Paso Mexican. Had the combo platter #1. Serving sizes were generous. Nothing original or unexpected They did have a "chili relleno burrito" But it was quite literally a chili relleno wrapped in a tortilla, no sauce Would have been interested if they had done a turducken with it via fried corn tortillas or something, but like I said, this isn't that sort of place. read more

I love coming here especially with my family. They have menudo and caldo everyday of the week. My favorite is the daily specials. The server ladies are sooo nice and always in a good mood, at least from what I've experienced every time I come. Another plate you should try out is the gorditas they are FIRE!!! Love love love the gordita plate. When I normally get the special I'll get the caldo de res and tacos de pollo. You only get two tacos but is so worth it!!! I'm a long time and forever customer here. Enjoy my pics :) read more

Every time we go we have no issues. Everything is always made to order. Must have are the pancakes and the menudo

Very friendly service. Restaurant was very clean and welcoming. We are driving thru El Paso heading to Houston Texas and we are glad we stopped here. We were starving, driving from California to our new home in Texas, so this place had the right amount of food! Generous portions! Authentic Mexican food !!! read more

The menu was large with many options. We ordered the 3 enchilada plate and the 3 Gorditas plate. The food was good. The restaurant was busy and Monica our server was very attentive and pleasant. The restaurant was clean and full of locals representing the community. It is obviously a longstanding traditional family restaurant. read more

Came to try the menudo. Could not get through it. I regret not asking for a taste sample before ordering. It had a weird taste from the beginning and the taste stayed. I tried covering up with spices (oregano, chile, avocado, lime), to no avail. Honestly one of the worst dishes I've ever had. Service was ok. Chill environment. Edit- lowered the rating to 1 star because I ended up throwing it up. read more

The food was amazing. The service was good and the food was mind blowing . I definitely recommend this place.

Delicate meals and great service! We love the atmosphere too. The prices are reasonable. Good job Martin!

I usually for lunch, but today we stopped for breakfast. The Huevos Rancheros were good and the picadillo breakfast was nice! Good service, it wasn't too busy early, there was no wait. Totally enjoyed! read more

Top five Mexican restaurants in El Paso. A bold claim, but between the food and quality of service they really back it up. For lunch. The gorditas are divine and for breakfast the eggs Mexicana is a sure bet. The wait staff in particular is a real high point here, kind, caring, and knowledgeable. This place is a 10 out of 10. read more

Really good authentic Mexican food. Fresh flour tortillas and big servings. Very affordable and great customer service.

I ate here because it was close to where I was working that day. The food was good. Price was reasonable. It was clean, but not at all fancy. To get into the restaurant, I had to go past a table outside the entrance where they were selling prepaid funerals. Inside, a nun had a table selling items. That was not a great start to eating there. Lol read more

All of the food tastes delicious. The taquitos were so good. The tortillas were so fresh and homemade. The service was good. Only bad was it was hard to find parking. read more

Service is number one and the food is delicious and also has a lot of specials and variety of food

This is a favorite breakfast spot. The food is always fresh and cooked to order. There was a wait to get a table but the orders arrived quickly. Tried and recommended is the menudo and enchiladas. The fresh tortillas were a huge hit, they also sell them by the dozen. Our waitress was courteous and our coffee cups were never empty. Four stars because it was a long wait and the restaurant was hot inside, they need to turn on the fans even if it's 9 am. read more

The Lunch Box - Red enchiladas & eggs - Mexican Near Me - El Paso, Texas

They took off the take out parking. I work and can't stay to eat. I just order on the phone and pick it up. Next time I will block the other cars and get my food. They don't worry about take out people, I won't worry about their customer. I asked it and the cashier lady was rude. She shouldn't get mad, that's what she's there for. Customer service is first, not a bad attitude. read more

Went here earlier! Wait is sometimes long, expect to wait at least ten to twenty on a weekend. Our food is typically very good. I usually eat flautas or their combination plates. Today I ate the steak tacos, they were to die for. My kids got pancakes, usually they are ok. Today they came out cold and the syrup was too sugary for my oldest who loves loves sugar. I know there is always debate on which lunch box is better, I'd have to say the east is starting to be better than this location. Overall not a bad place to dine but not the best either. Giving them 4 stars since the Mexican food is good. Ducking a star due to the wait and the inconsistency of being good and bland the times I've come. I always tell my boys not to order American at a Mexican place but maybe he'll learn later in life to trust me. Happy Eating! read more

My family and I have been coming here for years. You can't beat the Chile verde and Chile Colorado. The meat is soooo tender and the sauce tastes homemade. We trust them like family to cater family get togethers and they never disappoint. The food is hot, ready to be picked up and they help take it to our car. A delicious family meal with the kitchen time. So blessed to have a family establishment like this in our area. read more

I'm a very picky eater when it comes to eating a Mexican food. I came last week with family and I wanted something different. So, I ordered the chipotle chicken wings! They were fried and topped with a spicy homemade chipotle sauce. You can order 6 or 12, I went for the 12 so I could have some leftovers. They were actually delicious and impressed. And I will tell you a big plate of wings for 9.99 is a bargain! It's affordable compared to many places that sell 12 wings! I won't list these places, but, you get the idea. Salsa and chips were also great! Expect a 15-20 minute wait, especially if you go between 1145-1:00 as this place is always crowded and parking is tight! read more

Was told that they had a15 minute wait, we waited 45 minutes. Finally seated and it took 46 minutes to get served. Plate was hot, food was cold. Waitress was very apologetic, but didn't solve the fact that it took forever. read more

Long wait time despite plenty of tables but not Enough staff. Friday night drink happy hour prices were decent though. I got the tortilla soup with was unusually thick but very flavorful and they did not skimp on the spices or amount of chicken. Also Ordered the chicken fajitas to go and ended up taking half my soup home too after eating way too many chips and salsa waiting for the food. Overall an average el paso Mexican restaurant but it's hard to stand out as Mexican food in this town. read more

From the outside it appears to look more upscale but upon entering it's just a simple place. They had chairs & tables, I didnt notice any booths. Ordering was a little complicated for me. I dont speak Spanish, but I understood enough. I ordered a large Jaimaica, it was 2.25 plus tax. This drink is actually small. I'm guessing 16 oz. Not happy about that at all. Later I noticed my drink had lipstick on it. You know, like someone took a sip & they put a lid over it to serve me. Disgusted & you know I'm not drinking that. The Huevos Chilaquiles weren't that good, refried beans had too much of a seasoning in it. I half expected this breakfast to have a spicy kick. Nada, needless to say I didn't finish this breakfast. I expected better out of you El Paso, being you're so close to the border. I'll never return. read more
