“ One of my favorite restaurants. I come to Port A once a year and always look forward to eating here. The food is consistently delicious, service great, and it's very affordable. Highly recommend! ”
“ Visited again: Enchiladas still so-so; cheese is good, sauce okay, tortillas used for the enchiladas are thick and white. The refried beans tasted a little weird today. Barbacoa still very delicious. Service is always great. 3 years ago: Was really busy when my family and I visited on a Sunday morning, but we were served promptly. The waitstaff are attentive and always made sure we didn't need anything. Prices were good. The food was great. Enchiladas were okay. Very good carne guisada. Rice and refried beans were tasty. The barbacoa tacos and chorizo w/egg tacos were delicious. ”
“ So I seen this place had low reviews a d wasn't going to stop but this place was packed when we drove by. So I took a chance. Well I'm glad I did. The breakfast was awesome. I had the chorizo and egg plate and my girl had the migas plate. We both were very happy with this place and will come back 100%. Now I see most of the reviews complaining about the lunch. All I can say is, that they are fast, great service and amazing breakfast. ”
“ The service was the best. The food was also great. My son especially liked the beans. I had beef and shrimp fajitas and they were excellent. ”
“ Friendly, fast service. Even though the place was absolutely packed and every table was filled we got our food in 3 minutes it was amazing. Solid food, nothing fancy but good, fresh high quality Tex Mex. The salsa was better than average we went through 3 bowls! Friendly, professional staff that were all working together running food, seating people and bussing tables as a team. I watched big groups walked in one after another and even with a packed house they were able.to accommodate everyone quickly. Most other restaurants would have been on a 15 to 20 minute wait. Not this staff! They cleaned tables the moment people left and got all these big groups seated asap. Will definitely be back our favorite breakfast spot on the island! ”
“ Breakfast was delicious!! Didn’t take pics of the plates, but I had the bacon and eggs with potatoes, it was so yummy! The star of the show was the chocolate flan. He loved it so much he bought a second one! Jaja ”
“ Fast, delicious, reasonable price and did I mention fast? We stopped in at 12:30 on a Wednesday and it was packed! There were only a few tables open so we sat down and a flurry of staff flew around with food and drinks. We got our drinks in a flash and our food in less than 10 minutes. So nice, efficient and professional. Great stop!! The chicken fajitas were so good with a ton of veggies - not the 6 strips like most places. My husband had the cheese enchiladas and he ate it all. He cuts all his up before he eats, weird I know. Stop by and enjoy the food. ”
“ Casual Tex-AmEx with home made salsa and tortillas. I was initially disappointed that we couldn’t order brunch (Sunday at 11:15), but the breakfast tacos (served all day) were awesome. I ordered migas and egg & sausage. Husband enjoyed the beef milanesa with fries. Prompt service for drink refills and great value for 30, incl tip. We will return when next in PA! ”
