Love the new restaurant that has replaced the old one. Bbq with a Mexican twist. I got the pork belly tacos and wanted to eat like 5 more they were so good. Side of Mexican rice reminded me of how my mom used to make it cause all these Mexican places make it to dry and this was nice and moist with a ton of flavor.Only downside is they don’t have fresh brewed tea so you have to buy the bottled options.Big menu and was delighted by the first try so will be back again

Found this place when we drove to Forney to purchase a car. Hands down the best tacos I have ever had! That cheesy crunch is amazing and the portions are extremely generous. We’d drive the 2 hours just to dine here again!

Worst barbecue I had in a long time. Bring your own sauce if you do come to this place. Meet was cold and not cut correctly. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Great new location with lots of space. Can't wait to go back when the weather is warmer. Food was spectacular and staff was very friendly. We got the chopped brisket sandwich, chicken birria ramen and chicken birria tacos. Go early because they were out of a number of items by 6pm when we showed up. All the food we got was great, chopped brisket was excellent. We'll be going back. Thank you ETT!

This is an amazing place, food with awesome friendly people. They always welcome you with a smile and have a great attitude. Not only are they the most friendly, but the food is extremely delicious and that is what they strive for. El tejas twist is a must try place if you have never been there before, you won’t be
