The food here is more authentic than your traditional Mexican restaurant. The staff was super friendly and the food was absolutely fantastic. The homemade tortillas were superb. We will definitely be back. They also serve an assortment of Mexican drinks such as the Mexican cokes in the glass bottles. Don’t forget to top the meal off with free ice cream 🍦 for desert. A must for lovers of Mexican food and culture.

Very tasty. Been looking for me some good Mexican food. Texas never disappoint. I ordered the chicken and steak with rice and a flour tortilla. Nice size proportion. Will be back if in the area again. Waitresses were nice also. Good job!

I am alway looking for good TexMex and was finally in the area to try El Tejas. I grabbed some chicken nachos. The chicken was very tender and had a wonderful flavor to it. They certainly do not skimp out on the cheese either. Only complaint is by the time I made it halfway through the nachos they were starting to get soggy. So had to fight with them. Their homemade tortillas were awesome love wow light they were. Service was great. Drink never made it down to halfway. Thinking next time im going to give some Fajitas a try.

Food was great, glad we decided to stop in -will definitely be returning. I'd consider this more authentic Mexican food rather than Tex-Mex. We had a friendly waitress who did a good job at coming around to check on our table even though they were fairly busy at dinner time on a Sunday. Be warned that portions are very large, next time we're sharing a plate and not ordering an appetizer!

It's been mentioned in a few other reviews, but large parties beware! First off, we had to wait forever. I understand that we are a large party, but it was kind of ridiculous. We got tired of waiting for the check, so a few of us tried paying at the front desk. They told us we could not do that and that they would bring the checks out to our table. Looking back I guess they do this so they can charge more without people noticing. They brought us our checks with only the total price, but my check seemed too high. I thought it included tip (which is normal for large parties). But when I asked the waitress, she said it did not include tip...So I went to the front to ask because it didn't add up. Not only did they charge a higher price than what was on the menu, they also basically charged 30% tip automatically, plus additional fees for using a card. At the time I was too tired to argue so I just paid the bill, but I won't be returning... I was the last one to pay for my check, so unfortunately they got away with doing this to our whole party. (30% tip plus additional tip)
Most of the food was mediocre, but the salsa is good.

Seen a lot of reviews for bad service but our experience was overwhelmingly good. The waitress was nice and attentive. Food and drinks were well flavored. I would recommend the pozole. We came in as a party of four with no wait and there was a decent amount of people already seated. Would recommend and will be going back again.

While I absolutely LOVE their food, they get our to-go orders wrong 75% of the time. Their staff is always very nice. We have had outstanding service inside. I no longer place orders over the phone... only inside and then wait on it. Never takes too long.

The food could be better, I expected to get sizzling fajitas in the super hot skillet but instead I got some semi warm fajitas on a regular plate. I do appreciate the fact that they make homemade tortillas but other than that I’ll chose to go elsewhere.
