Inside Resturant
Denise H.

The food is always delicious here!! Menudo is always on point, you can have it with or without hominy. I also purchased a sope, couple of Barbacoa tacos (corn tortilla), & a fajita (corn tortilla) taco. This Resturant is one of my favorite spots & service is so great.

Taco plate, with two bistec tacos and one Al pastor taco
Ayleen A.

Muy delicioso! This place is in an old shopping center, and you would never suspect they serve amazing and authentic Mexican food! We stopped by for a late lunch, and I would go back in a heart beat. I ordered the taco place with two steak (bistec) tacos and one Al pastor. The home made corn tortillas were delicious. The beans and rice were the real deal.

Platillo Machacado desayuno
Rene A.

I was looking for a place where they served Machaca. For some reason I couldn't find it on other restaurants. My search lead me to this place. I'm not sure if the signage says that it is "Estilo Casero" or home cooking, But this is exactly what it is. I've always liked places where it seems that you're having somebody else's mom cook for you. The Machaca was delicious I added rice to my plate since it only comes with the egg, beans and tortillas. I have made multiple trips to this place since that time. The owner and his family are all friendly as well.

This is one of Garland's hidden gems. Located in a blink-and-you-missed-it.stripmall, Villa Monterrey offers wonderful Mexican food. What it might lack ain atmosphere, this small but clean restaurant always packs of flavorful punch. The owners are very friendly and the food is outstanding. Nothing sketchy about this place, I will definitely be back to sample more from their menu.

Chilaquiles
Melissa A.

Waited for our food maybe about 10 mins for dine in, there was no wait. Got the chilaquiles rojos but I'm more of a salsa verde. Try out the green ones!

Breakfast menu

This is the real deal! I've had their tacos, burritos, loaded fries and everything is delicious. Whenever we're in the mood for Mexican, this is our number one spot. They are also very clean and safe during COVID-19.

10 street tacos for $10!

Well, talk about a hidden gem. I had this place bookmarked but could not tell you where I heard…read moreabout it. It is basically a little luncheon oasis dropped right in the middle of a gigantic industrial park. On the drive over I was seriously questioning my Yelp choices. It is that kind of location. But trust Yelp and sometimes you are handily rewarded, which we absolutely were. We came after a few hours strolling around at the Botanical Gardens, so we rolled in around 1:30 and there were still plenty of people there. I can only imagine at noon this place is packed, and honestly it should be. My biggest complaint is the menus. There is one above the counter that does not include everything, and then a different, more complete version if you scan the QR code at the table (But 2 different navigations even on the website with slightly different menus). Do yourself a favor and look it up ahead of time so you are not standing there making panic decisions. There is a half sandwich and half soup combo (Not on the board but online menu), which is definitely the move. I got the pozole, which you should absolutely order, and a half grilled cheese on their housemate sourdough. Normally not my go to, but I was trying not to be completely stuffed since we had dinner plans. And they bake their own sourdough, so I had a strong feeling it would be great, and it delivered. Toasty and melty, American and cheddar. My husband got the southwestern wrap, and my friend went with the half club and half tomato soup. She immediately regretted not getting the pozole and the half birria sandwich, which tells you everything you need to know. Also need to mention the snickerdoodle. Not much to look at, kind of humble, but it completely makes up for it with flavor and that perfect soft texture. Go ahead and get the cookie. You are not here to make responsible decisions. Bottom line, it may feel like you are driving into the middle of nowhere, but keep going. This place is worth it.

This is exactly the kind of hole in the wall lunch spot you'll miss if you're not paying attention…read more I literally drove past it twice before realizing it was right there. It's also one of those "if you know, you know" places, and clearly people know, because the to-go orders were nonstop. The second you walk in, you're hit with cases of fresh baked bread, and pastries. The almond pistachio croissant was the biggest one I've ever seen and had me drooling before I even placed my order. It is counter service, and I went with a Mediterranean sandwich with chicken while my lunch date got a classic BLT. Both were incredible, super fresh ingredients, excellent flavor, and next level fresh bread/ flatbread. Try the sourdough ! You can tell this place is legit because you see everyone in there from construction workers, people, in scrubs, law-enforcement, executives, all grabbing lunch. When that many hard-working people trust a spot, you know it's got to be good. If you're in Garland, add this place to your must try list. It is an excellent lunch spot.

After waiting for years for this building to be converted from a dry cleaner to a restaurant, it…read morefinally happened. And even then it took us a few years to finally drop in and give this place a try. Not sure if this is the first or second restaurant in this location since the changeover. So finally today we stopped in. The inside was much larger than I expected it to be. It was very fresh and clean on the inside. The inside had a little bit of a 1950's vibe with its light turquoise padded booths and chairs. Along with fresh clean walls and similar tones of turquoise, it was a very refreshing visit. The restaurant was sort of divided into two sections. The main dining area and a smaller area on the side with mexican sweets, sweet breads etc. It is a nice little area to come for coffee and a treat for breakfast. They also have bread and tortillas for purchase. I ordered the fried tilapia and grilled veggies. The tilapia was very good but I didn't care for the veggies. Also came with rice. There was a lot of food on that plate and the piece of fish was big too!!! The prices were good. Staff was friendly and attentive. Definitely be going back.

Great place to enjoy breakfast and take pastries to go…read more Pancakes taste perfect. They have a couple different hot sauces to choose from. Make sure you check your order before leaving when ordering Togo. We were missing an item but caught it in time.

This is outstanding food. Don't be fooled by the strip mall…read more Rice is light, all the ingredients were fresh. Appropriate temperature. Friendly and efficient service. I don't usually give 5 stars to a strip mall joint. Exception here. Highly recommend!

CALLING ALL FOODIES! Seriously, you need to grab your sombreros and try this place out…read more I'm one of those kind of people that don't like to go to dives, even if I've heard that their food is excellent. I like to eat in nice surroundings and in a descent neighborhood. However, from what I read about THIS food, it made me change my mind. Not in a great neighborhood and in an old strip mall, we seated ourselves. I think at one time this place was nice but now it needs freshening up. But none of that matters now after the food experience that we had. We started with the rich and delectable Roasted Poblano Cream Soup. Oh man, oh man, oh man - my friends, this is a must try. But that was nothing compared to the next dish of Signature Pollo Sazon. Description from the menu: Chicken breast stuffed with chorizo, poblano peppers, and queso Oaxaca, cornmeal breading, pan-seared and laced with a house ancho chile honey sauce. Folks, there were so many flavors going on, I don't even have the words to describe the deliciousness. And what a beautiful presentation! I will definitely try this place again and again.
