“Stopped by with family while in the area, food and experience has been the same across all stores. Our server Anjenette was super friendly and provided recommendations for items that we had not tasted before. (They were delicious) Great experience at Calacas.“
“The restaurant inside is decorated beautifully! The servers were very friendly and attentive. I had the cóctel de camarón, and my husband had the tacos a la plancha, both delicious, and really enjoyed the jamaica as well! Can’t wait to be back in McAllen to dine here!Kid-friendliness: My son is a picky eater, and they have lots of kid friendly options, including pizza!“
“I love this taqueria, it has very good food here, there's everything, burgers, gringa tacos, I love the flavor they have and the food is fresh on the day of I recommend that you go visit with your family ☺️ I guarantee it is delicious ? all the service is very Fast and the employees are very friendly and respectful.“
“The food doesn’t have much flavor even after you add salt, and you hve to pay for potatoes separately when any other breakfast diner includes them in their plates. For the most part it is good. The prices are charged differently than what is on the menu. Prices are cheaper on menu and then you get charged more on the receipt. More expensive than other restaurants and you get less. It’s pretty packed on Sundays so don’t except to get helped or checked out quickly, but regardless the ladies are nice!“
“So glad we tried this new place! Well, at least new for us. Breakfast was on point. An authentic Valley traditional mexican breakfast. Salsa tatemada and toasted flour tortillas to start. I had huevos rancheros and was surprised they had Frijoles Albañil (chorizo with beans with jalapeños and onion.) These are a rare find. The other surprise was how they layered the eggs on top of thick ham and a corn tortilla then bathed in their delicious Salsa. I highly recommend Alejandro’s if you are looking for tasty and delicious breakfast on the weekend. Can’t end the review with out mentioning the kindness and courtesy of the staff. Coming back for sure.“
“Had an amazing breakfast experience. It's a cross between fast food and a restaurant dine in experience. It was fast and the food was delicious. A true genuine taste of Mexico. Above all, the service provided by Diego Camacho, made it an all around amazing experience. The young courteous, professional, and respectful Mr. Camacho provides superior customer service, has a very positive attitude that uplifts everyone. This restaurant is lucky to have him.“
“Friend and I went in for lunch. We both had the lunch special which was baked chicken. It was delicious. And an abundance of food. I tried my best to eat it all, but I just wasn’t able. Service was awesome. Very clean restaurant. I recommend to anyone.Dietary restrictions: They will serve no carb if you askParking: It’s just crowded. But, even being lunch time, we found a spot within easy walking distance even for this old man“
“Everything I've been able to taste tastes very good. I give extra credits for how fascinating it is to see how they prepare everything in sight, the flour or corn tortillas mmmmm!!!? a delight, pancakes or some prepared drink, such as smoothies, etc. Very rich.“
“This place honestly doesn't look like how good it is, the place looks simple, the atmosphere is good and humble.The flavor is extraordinary.Some very good beans are included with the combos.The fries come with salt, they are soft, very good flavor too.I ordered a very delicious synchronized steak.Tortilla large enough for a well-eaten person accompanied with beans and lettuce inside the synchronized.The cokes are very cold from a can.The place has a calm atmosphere with a television.It also has tables outside.Kid-friendliness: The hotdog for children is a very good option.“
“The place is street..as street can get...but sometimes these places are the bomb for hidden gems in food experience!!Well..this place was not quite the place for a 5 star taste..i struggled to give a 4...but service was fast...place was clean(i avoid rush hour like the herpes) but food was meh..The pros is that it serves 6 tacos...fully loaded with the essentials to top them off...i have seen many places scaling down quantities to 5 tacos...or creatively giving you 4 tacos and other things to get ur stomach full of everything but tacos??...Good enough to recommend...and probably come again in a pinch or while around here in Milpa land....but i won't seek out and drive the 10 miles for tacos....Prices was proper..about 16 smacs gets u an order. Free sida beans ...So come 1 come all...its a great place to fill ur empty stomach on good ole fashioned street tacos ?!!Mike“
“Excellent service from our waiter. Nice ambiance. The basic breakfast tacos in regular size flour tortillas are $4 a piece. When served, the filling portion was scarce and bearly warm. I didn't say anything because I was amongst a group of 6 and felt embarrassed. I feel that someone is not monitoring the quality of the food before it goes out to the customer.“
“It is worth what you pay, the truth is that the prices are very affordable and the main dish complements you very well, any tamale or the Menudo, whatever you eat is tasty and they have very good service. The truth is that you don't even have to recommend it. The restaurant is only recommended. We walked 60 miles to get there but it's worth it!“
“I had not gone here un a long time. The waitress remembered me... thank you for the great service and food. It is as delicious as when I used to eat there. ??????Wheelchair accessibility: They have wheelchair access, and parking is big enough for anyone who needs the wheelchair ♿️“
“I loved their tacos, tortas, and sincronizadas. Went there late last week and I loved their service - the waitresses kept checking on us and making sure we didn't need anything. Excellent service, awesome portions, and very, very tasty carne asada. I also had a Carne Asada & Ham torta that was delicious. Their portions are big and most of the items can be shared or you can take some home. Awesome prices too!“
“The customer service is very friendly, the atmosphere is calm which allows you to enjoy your food and the delicious tacos (mixed please) my favorites...!!?Wheelchair accessibility: The space for wheelchairs is comfortable even between the tables since there is sufficient distance.“
“Grate service but food not to many options and two tortillas per person? Definitely won’t go back. My partner ordered a coffee and he couldn’t share it with me because of their rules, you had to order your own drinks but can’t share them I understand it’s a buffet but why care if you will be paying for what you are consuming?“
“The food was absolutely amazing! The service wasn’t the best, it was a little warm in there, and it smelled kind of funny, but once I got my food I didn’t care because my food was so good. I will definitely be telling my friends about this place!“
“Very awesome and amazing experience, very good food and service, a clean and neat atmosphere and station!Kid-friendliness: No commentsWheelchair accessibility: They help out people that have disabilities, Im not taking pictures of that due to respect...“
“Went in today with my wife to try it out. We were surprised. The portions were huge. Not only that it was delicious. When it came time to pay we were surprised how much it was. We paid so little. I even asked the server if she charged me the papa and she said yes. Two orders of tacos, two papa's, drinks and only paid $20.02. Highly recommend.“
“I enjoyed the "pollo asado" good amount of food on their serving plates. The night I visited it seemed like a slow night. Service was just OK. Carne asada or bistec, fajita can't say the difference between the meats. Beans preparados were very good. I don't like the fact of charging additional fees because paying with a card. I feel that the business itself doesn't make enough money that they need to charge fees to their customers to make their profit. I understand they want all customers to pay with cash. But it's ridiculous to charge additional fees to card payment customers just because their bank might charge them fees. By the way, usually the fees they charged is higher than the bank fees that they usually charges them.“
“Went in because it was open late and let me tell you, it was worth it! Ordered a sincronizado and a papa both were off the charts good Cost me about 23 dollars and we'll worth all the 23 dollars! The sincronizado was packed with meat and the papa was nice and mixed up! Sincronizado 10 outa 10 Papa asada 8 outa 10 I would come back in a heart beat!“
“Came in for breakfast. Came specifically for the champurado in the little clay cup. It did not disappoint? I also had coffee, it hit the spot. Had huevos rancheros, beans with chorizo and papas. Everything was delicious and fresh. Corn tortillas were warm an homemade. Waitress was excellent and kept the coffee flowing.“
“Very good service I recommend it, oh most of the taquerias I put this on my list of my favorites and very good service whoever can't go to NL for some delicious tacos here is the perfect place, roast beef with corn tortillas oh arina , I ordered two orders of corn tacos and one of flour and either of the two options were very tasty, the red or green sauces had a very good flavor, I recommend them, support these guys ?“
“(Translated by Google) Delicious breakfast and very friendly service. I couldn't decide on a menudo or chilaquiles and it turns out that they have the "Rick special" that includes a glass of menudo to take away the craving, meat, chilaquiles and if you want, with some eggs on top. To my liking, I would ask that my chilaquiles be moistened or moistened more with that tasty little sauce that they prepare. Even so, I give them 5 stars because they happily accommodate what one asks of them. I tried to go back today but it seemed closed and the truth is that I didn't even try to open the door, I went to a restaurant next door and I was sorry that they were closed when I went.(Original)Riquísimo desayuno y el servicio muy amigable. No me decidía por un menudo o por chilaquiles y resulta que tienen el “Rick special” que incluye una copa de menudo para quitar el antojo, carne, chilaquiles y si quieren pues con unos huevitos encima. A mi gusto, yo pediría que me humedezcan o mojen más mis chilaquiles con esa sabrosa salsita que se preparan. Aún así les doy 5 estrellas porque ellos felizmente se acomodan a lo que les pida uno. Traté de regresar hoy pero parecía cerrado y la verdad no hice ni el intento por abrir la puerta, me fui a un restaurante de al lado y lamenté que hayan estado cerrados cuando fui.“
“The food here is absolutely delicious. Food comes out quick and hot!! waiters are very fast and never miss a thing. we had the manager and about 2 other waitresses come to check on us every once in a while. Price was also very good!! Definetely coming back!!“
“(Translated by Google) It is a good option for breakfast, morning tacos, nothing out of the ordinary, the prices are reasonable, the service is good and the cleaning is good, but they are not extraordinary, just good(Original)Es una buena opción para desayunar tacos mañaneros nada fuera de lo común los precios son razonables el servicio es bueno y la limpieza bien pero no son extraordinarios solo buenos“
“The food is great, and the staff's service is awesome. The atmosphere and mood were alive. I went to get food there, and the mocorito roll was so delicious, despite its low price. However, I don't recommend bringing your children to play because it might seem boring but still super good food for kids.Parking: Numerous spaces for parking.Wheelchair accessibility: 2-3 parking spaces for wheelchair accessibility.“
“Hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve ever been in. The service is great; our server was very kind and friendly. They accommodated to my dietary restrictions. The food was absolutely delicious with lots of flavor and very good portions.“
“Drove from Houston to enjoy lunch here it’s a smaller place, but cozy and they accommodated our family of 10. The menu was not overwhelming at all and EVERYONE was so friendly. The prices were reasonable and food was so tasty. Would definitely return “
