“My favorite poke in the McAllen area. Been coming for years and I love to mix it up with the variety of proteins, toppings, and sauces. The house sauce is awesome. ?? Just a heads up though, there's been an older lady working lately and she ALWAYS under serves the base AND protein. I usually have to get double servings of the protein just to get anywhere close to what the other staff give.“

“I absolutely love this place. This is my to-go to for breakfast ? Every time a I go I get amazing service and amazing food. My favorite item to get is the breakfast Combo 7. I love how it is very inexpensive as well. I would definitely recommend to anyone ?“

“Always my 5AM stop for fajita tacos before hitting the road. Eddie and his entire family are amazing people, and their food has never dropped in quality or taste, despite the many locations now open and the 20 years I've been getting food there“

“A true home grown Texas family owned, operated Barbeque nestled in the heart of Edinburg, Texas. This little unassuming BBQ joint is a true labor of love and will not disappoint its definitely worth the effort, if at first glance you cant find it simply follow the smell of good Texas BBQ.Dietary restrictions: Gluten friendly choices.“

“I prefer the Torta Cubans with fajita. Delicious! On the side I prefer a small baked potato. The torta is so big that I took half home. My son loved it. Of all the restaurants in the area I prefer Vagoncito as I know the service and the food is always very good“

“I loved the tacos, they were delicious, well recommended, the meat was softer than elsewhere. Their tasty sauce. They didn't have people but I never thought they were so tasty... If you ask for a recommendation, go there... The combo I ordered came with their tacos, potato chip beans and a soda with an affordable “

“beautiful atmosphere food was delicious must try !“

“Came to McAllen for work and stopped by C&C Grill. Found a hidden gem out here. Started off with the quesabirria and man I was hooked. Then tried some fish tacos and was not disappointed. The Berrian had an awesome flavor even the calories they give with it, nothing gamey just straight savory flavor. The fish tacos were delicious as well.Aguas frescos were delicious you can tell everything from the food, chips, and Aguas are made fresh daily!! Definitely must try. It's a new favorite when I travel here now.Pics are of Fish Tacos and my wife's order of Chicken and Beef Tacos. I ate the quesabirria so fast forgot to take a pic!!“

“Los tacos al pastor estan deliciosos se los recomiendo yum. l La papa con bistec tambien esta de muy buen tamaño y la carne esta sueve y muy sabrosa.“

“Stephenie was extremely friendly. She keeps the restaurant run in tip top shape. She took our order with out any problems. We met a team member on his way out, he was telling us the great job he did at the restaurant. He took pride in his work. I will definitely come back for breakfast.“

“5 stars. Highly recommend the Papa asada, I always add extra cheese for my liking but the way it comes is definitely enough for most. Sincronizadas are a generous size and their charro beans and side of chips always hit the spot. The burgers here are amazing as well.cant wait to return to try more of their menu. outdoors dining created a relaxing atmosphere for talking and laughing the night away. Overall amazing experience here.staff is so friendly and efficient as well.“

“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!“

“Highly recommend the bacon and egg tacos here .I add beans and cheese to make it more filling but you can't go wrong with any of the breakfast tacos!! Extremely quick drive through service as an option as well for on the go. Drive through speed is the high light that keeps me coming back for sure though.Parking: Not much parking available but it's understandable for the size of the establishment, recommend drive through cause it's very fast.“

“Well deserved 5 star rating, this place is indoor and outdoor it is awesome. Great tasting food, great music. They make sure to cater to all music genres which is a plus. They also have different events going on, which you can find on thier Facebook page. I recommend you to bring your family and friends here. It's kid and pet friendly. Last but not least, management is great, they make sure you are well taken care of.“

“Love their breakfast tacos. Everything is made homemade w fresh ingredients so the wait time is a while but we'll worth the wait. Very popular breakfast place. This place is an order and pick up..there's no dine-in. Highly recommend to try and call in your order ahead of time.“

“We literally threw away 45-50 dollars of food from taco loco. The flavor of the charro beans was not as good as it could have been.. the meat from the tacos was old meat and the seasoning was not tasty at all... we left and now we are all hungry lol. The music was not pleasant for kids the song was saying open your legs so I can eat u in spanish and I didn't appreciate ? the music. I thought it would be more kid friendly. I was so excited to go. Had been wanting to go for a month. We finally did and I was disappointed. We let management know just so they know about the meat. Then the bar tender was staring hard core we felt bad. I feel like I'd rather know than not know something about my business TAQUITO LOCO was good! Pizza looked good didn't get to try it.“

“(Translated by Google) Hello, hello, I just happened to say that it is one of the taquerias with the best service and flavor...All very well done and very friendly(Original)Hola hola solo paso a decir que es una de las taquerias con mejor servicio y sabor ...Todo muy bien echo y muy amables“

“What to say! this place reminds me of when my family and i would head over to the drive in movie theatre in Mercedes. We would stop at anna's to get dinner along the way from the house.that's when i was only 14 or 15 I'm now 32 years old and still go and just took my son their last night and she was great, along with the food.“

“The food is amazing, and it's ready super fast. I came here during my lunch break and I was worried I wouldn't have enough time with all the people in the restaurant, but they surprised me with how fast the food is ready and it's very well-made!! Also my mom loves it so you know it's good (iykyk). Definitely coming again...soon ?“

“El Chile relleno! El mas rico de todo el valle!, 100%recomendado!“

“love the beef n avocado. agua de Jamaica is superb!“

“The food at Tacos Mi Ranchito can't be beat. There can be a bit of a wait for drive through, but it's worth it. It's a food truck, so no indoor seating and the "atmosphere" is a parking lot. They serve frijoles rancheros with most dishes.“

“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.“

“Tacos are great, but for some reason they're not consistent. That's why I don't give them 5 stars. I invited family and friends and for what ever reason the meat had no season , and they kept getting the toppings wrong. But other nights they are very good“

“There are many,many taquerias here in McAllen, some of which my husband and I have yet to try; but out of all the ones that we have tried- Taqueria La Patrona is undoubtedly in my top 5 list. Here you have the options of calling in your order and picking it up, arriving and ordering and taking your food home, or simply taking a seat at one of their tables and dining outside underneath their very well built and placed canopy dining area. We had a very kind and attentive waitress that not only was taking orders and serving all the customers, she was keeping the tables/dining area very clean at the same time as well. Speaking of clean, I feel the need to mention that i was very impressed by the fact that being a strictly outdoor dining establishment, they did have a clearly visible and accessible no-touch, portable, hand washing station. Their hand washing station is available/accessible to all customers and serving staff alike. I consider this to be very hygienic, and appropriate. The food was absolutely delicious; I had the fajita tacos and my husband had the birria tacos. The tacos were excellent on portion size and the quality of the meat was awesome, no fat, no grease, no over seasoning or under seasoning. They have a variety of other meals including- tortas, synchronizadas, burger with fries, among other foods. In conclusion, I completely recommend that anyone/everyone give them a try!“

“Very good tacos ? and everything is ? with the noses that help you with your oden.I just moved to Texas and as soon as I got off the ✈️ plane, soups arrived and I ate a roast potato, name how good it was.I recommend this place, it's amazing and great, buddy.I just moved to Texas and they gave a great welcome with this taco truck, You'll love it bro, I highly recommended this place, you guys have to try the papa de asada, ask for it and try this.You have a very lovely day.“

“I walked in and there was nobody in the restaurant which made me wonder about the food but since I was craving tacos al vapor i decided to stop by for a quick bite. I didn’t get a greeting right away, I told the lady in the back hello and she told me she’d be right with me. She took my order from the window of the kitchen and I sat down and sipped on my drink while I waited. The tacos were good, the desebrada was my favorite, it had lots of flavor but I wish the tacos were filled up more. Overall they satisfied my craving and I probably will return one more time. I’m only taking off one star because it was very stuffy in there.“

“I am basically going to echo what most of the other reviews said, because they were right.I pulled up, a sweet young lady came to my truck and took my order. (Make sure you tip ;) good service is rare).Got home and the family loved the tacos and monster dogs.Feels good finding a mom and pop joint to support and get great return!“

“Nice tasty tacos...not the best priced out there however still within your budget.All the seating is outside so be aware of the weather...we went on a hot night so flies were buzzing around. My wife ordered a simple order of corn tacos of bistec. The meat was cooked well...the salsa they offered had nice spice to it. The beans they serve are a nice complement to the tacos...“
