    Nice clean restaurant
    Deborah M.

    Just wow. Great little place with private parking. Clean. Great service. Nice vibe. Not too loud but casual. Nice for a relaxed date night and the food is amazing!! No complaints!

    The location is great and the inside is nice and spacious. Service was fantastic, we had some chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. We got some queso dip, it was probably the highlight of the visit. Piping hot and super flavorful. The rest of the meal was a little lacking. I had the Chile Rellenos and it was unique to say the least. The flavors were unlike any rellenos I've had before. They were cooked well, and they weren't bad, it was just middle of the road. If I was to go back I'd get the tacos. They had some good seasoning and had more flavor than any of the other dishes. Great service, good food!

    Adobo and one of the tacos.  We were busy eating!

    The flavors are sooooo good! Pastor tacos and adobo were fantastic! 85 characters for this is too much

    Pipian chicken with "tiny, tiny" serving of Spanish rice with salad
    Marco R.

    We arrived for lunch during the week, the place looks inviting and we were seated right away. We got our drinks right away, with warm chips and red medium heat salsa. We didn't get an appetizer but the menu looks appealing, may try some next time. I ordered the Pipian Chicken, it wasn't great, the pipian sauce is served over chicken filet, but the flavor was lacking salt and the plate and food was not hot, not even warm. I do have to give you a star for the salad, it's a cabbage salad with crunchy tortillas thin strips, the rice is tasty but the portion of rice was "tiny", you could easily give double that amount on each plate. I would ask that your server tells you that you are getting a vinegar dressing for your salad, and provided other options. My other 3 coworkers had the beef filet that comes with sweet fried plantains. Hope to come back and try other choices.

    My new favorite restaurant in Midlothian. I got the fajitas and the steak was so thick and juicy, it can easily feed two people.

    Pulled up to Ale's Kitchen on a Sunday morning, line out the door, so we took that as a good sign…read more Only waited ~20 mins, which wasn't bad at all. Super casual vibe, tables kinda close, and a random full bar for a place that closes at 3pm. But hey, it's 5 o'clock somewhere ‍ I had the Ranchero skillet: spicy, kinda chilaquiles vibes, with a tasty homemade salsa. 4/5, would get again. Hubs went with the chicken fried chicken breakfast: 5/5, he was impressed. Biscuits seemed homemade and were solid too. Grits were just...grits. 3/5. We also split a pancake -- fluffy, good, nothing crazy. 3.5/5. Friendly service, homestyle feel. Would definitely go back and recommend if you're in the area.

The server was so sweet and wiped up a tiny spill on the floor before I even saw it, to prevent me from stepping in it. Restaurant is clean and offers a bar as well. Moderately noisy so you can have the kids and be able to chat as much as you want in a casual setting. Ordered an Ale's chicken and the chicken fried chicken breakfast for our party of two. Coffee is delicious and smooth! Food wise, pretty good overall. The gravy wasn't as flavorful as I like but the eggs were cooked perfectly. The chicken was delicious. Getting boxes and a check took a bit longer than it should've. I had my card in my hand to pay and asked for boxes and check. My thing is, I don't like to be held up when I need to leave. I watched the server bring food and drinks to other tables over several minutes when she could've just dropped off the check easily at the same time and saved some steps. Once she did finally come back with it, it was quick to pay and leave. Overall 4 stars. We started out strong but kind of dropped off at the end on the service side.

I hit Taco Casa pretty frequently as I move around during my work. Pluses : generous ingredients especially cheese in their tacos. So far I have found every dish that uses cheese uses quality shredded cheese-not some kind of canned quasi-cheese Muck. I have eaten at this location multiple times and find it consistently good. In fact I've never had a bad meal at Taco Casa. Remember this is fast food. They are great at doing what they set out to do.

    I just had the worst drive thru experience I've ever had. Not all of it their fault, but the…read moremajority of it was their fault. Story time: I placed my order at the speaker box and was told they would give me the price at the window. That's fine, not unusual. I wait for about ten minutes for the cars in front of me to be served. Once I get to the window they start reading out someone else's order. I told them my order and they say it was never put into the computer. They tell me to pull forward and stop at the side door. I do just that. Then when they are done with the customer behind me, that customer starts to lay on the horn. There was clearly enough room for him to go around. Eventually he does. He decides to stop next to me and cuss me out before leaving. I wait for another ten minutes. Finally an employee brings me my order. Or so I thought. They forget half my order. They go back, then they bring me my drink forgetting my straw. Needless to say I was very frustrated at this point and near tears for getting cussed at. So all that to say this particular location needs to work on their service.
