Amazing experience all together. Tony was a great server and was extremely friendly! I’ve been to most of the Mexican restaurants on the coast, and this is hands down one of the best. Highly recommend!!

A nice "hole in the wall" experience where you are treated as family. My friend, who I dined with, remarked that she hasn't had authentic Mexican cuisine like this since she left Texas. Plus, wonderful margaritas!

Authentic Mexican food! Even with Drew staff members, they kept things rolling. The drinks were good, the margaritas were great! The food was good, they even have spicy items! The salsa has a kick too! There is parking in front and on the side.

This is one of the best authentic Mexican restaurants that we have had on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. It was a pleasant surprise but most hole-in-the-wall spots are fantastic.

We went on a busy night. The food was good, service was friendly but it took a solid 45-50 minutes to get our food. Overall it was decent.

Do not eat here. The food was terrible, the portions are small, the Lettuce was melted inside the burrito, the owner yelled at us when we complained and on top a of all of that the owner tried to over charge us $3. we will never go back.

Wonderful food! It's different than the other Mexican restaurants on the coast..more old fashioned. It's a small out of the way place...but well worth the stop

Tony & Israel were delightful. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. We will definitely come back again.PS - If you like spicy foods, order the burrito ranchero (spicy). My husband recommends it 10/10

This was a great dining experience. Tony, the owner, was great! The margaritas were some of the best I’ve ever tasted. I especially loved the nachos supreme with extra jalapeños. This was the first Mexican restaurant ever on the Gulf coast. It is over 50 years old and the food is excellent. I. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting top quality Mexican food.
