“The people in the back working very hard. I have been in an watching. For about 30min. Very professional an no one is standing around. Notice that all the people work together an help eachother. They were very busy with inside orders. This is on 0ct 5 2024 time is from 3pm to 4pm. 3 guys 1 lady all deserve raises. They have very good work ethics. That is something very hard to see these days.

The only thing that i can say for improvement is the tables were a little dirty an the place inside is a little small. But over all really good place.“

“When I lived in Austin back in the 90s, I would eat two of the gorditas before I would return. Now that I live here again, I visit this place at least once a month. If you are from McAllen and you don't know this place, you need to try the gorditas rellenas. They are all good.“

I initially went in thinking it was more of a taco place (even though it says on the window they have more) but was surprised that they had really good sushi!

One of the ladies brought out my baby a small separate bowl of soup & to go spoon without me even asking! Top notch service. The torta was very good.

“Can never go wrong eating here.“

“I live in Alice, I went to this place because I saw their place in u-tube, I am glad I did because their tortillas are almost as good as the ones my mother used to make. My wife ate nopalitos and cheese cordita and she said it was the most delicious she has ever tasted. I just hope the owner realizes the kind of cooks that he or she has because these are the best kind of chefs, they learned either from their parents or grandparents or both. My compliments to the cooks and if I were your boss I would give you a raise.“

“they have the best birria tacos no fat & always fresh! consume is also super good, but their hours on google aren't accurate & there's a lot of days where they aren't open.“

Everything was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The woman who took my order was very friendly.

“Had to find a place to hide from my wife, she was shopping for quinceaenere ? dresses. Great place, good tacos. Nobody knew who I was or that I was incognito. Thanks Rodriguez staff for not ratting me out. I will be back, I promise to leave my fake mustache at home next time.“
