5 Favorite place to eat in Tyler. It's a humble atmosphere inside, the food may take a minute... but for a reason, there is always a line of people going through the drive through, an abundance of to go orders in the front. The wait is totally worth it. You're food will come out scorching hot, just like the homemade salsa that was brought out to you earlier. They have some TexMex, but please... I beg of you, go for something authentic, your mouth and stomach will be grateful. The staff is always welcoming and inviting. Seriously love this place
5 Food was great. I had got the tacos with egg and cactus amazing the best hot sauce is the black one.

5 Ive been coming here for 18 years! Ive also traveled the country and this restaurante is in the top 3 of all the restaurants I’ve been to! The ladies are so nice! They have seen my kids grow up and always have a family friendly smile when we come in! The food is wonderful!!! The cold salsa is like none other I’ve ever had! Everything is great! When i am in town, this place is a must stop! Always very clean! Oh yea, this location makes their own flour tortillas!!!! Love them!
5 Coming from Houston and missing Home, we tried this spot. The food was great! Sad to see they dont do home-made tortillas by hand, but what we tried was good. We tried their Mini Tacos beef Fajata that came with Charro Beans $9.99 and also tried their Menudo was a good portion for $10.99. Pricing was reasonable. All tasted Fresh and the beans were very pleasing. Our waitress was very attentive and SUPER nice. We will definitely be back.
5 Great service good food. I had 3 flour tacos my husband had the breakfast it was good.
5 This place is so good. The food is great! The staff is very tentative! Super clean! Fajitas...home made tortillas and guacamole are outstanding! Oh and they have a drive thru!
Many guests enjoy the tacos with egg and cactus, shrimp cocktail, and their unique homemade salsas that add great flavor to any meal.
It's great for both—you can enjoy a fast drive-through order or a comfortable sit-down meal in a casual, cozy setting.
There can be a line during peak meal times, especially at the drive-through, so visiting slightly earlier or later than typical lunch or dinner hours might help.
Yes, the restaurant is family friendly and suited for groups, with seating options and a kids’ menu available.
They provide wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, seating, and restrooms to ensure comfort for all guests.
