Martha's Mexican Cocina

1st time we’ve been back since our only visit when they first opened this location many years ago….. food was good, I had Martha’s Nachos that weren’t bad, nothing great but not bad, they don’t give much pico for all the nachos, wife enjoyed her shrimp fajitas…. They have many shrimp dishes but no shrimp tacos so we asked and the waiter (who seemed fairly new) stated kitchen said they didn’t have stuff for shrimp tacos yet they have shrimp listed about 7 different ways on menu and tacos of other sorts, just not shrimp?? I don’t know….. anyway, she liked her shrimp fajitas. Salsa is excellent….

I was really excited to try this place based on all the good reviews. The workers here were so nice and welcoming. Ultimately I was let down by the quality of the food. I paid almost $50 (including tip).. the food tasted like it came from a can. The plates were really hot but the food was luke warm. This really was a huge let down given the reviews and how friendly the staff was. The stars are for the staff, not the food.

I hate writing this review because we've gone to Martha's for many years but the service has really fallen off and just today we ordered a 32 ounce salsa that cost $10.00! and a bowl of queso that was $7 and was given a tiny bag of chips to go with. Do better. Not sure what's happened over there but we will not be going back anytime soon.

Was credited for a pricey Taco, and got a sarcastic and rude comment back from a guy that looked like he was a manager ," you took some meet out of taco u returned too,", that's not his or anyone's business what I had put or done with a taco unless it was completely eaten, never back talk a customer or make fun of them, u can say it's nice to have a taste or ma'am did you happen to like the flavoring of the taco, while customer is not happy,b kind and polite as possible and sorrowful.. there was non of that , they seemed very arrogant and irritated of me even being there, in which I had been coming here for a few years now. But they had decent prices back then and now no word as to why the up change. Waiters were nice but need better training on how to read menu and explain things in detail better but also needs right items on menu.. menu was all wrong and nothing showed what they charged me for ,as receipt had a different name to item of choice..I will show a picture down below..

Goods: Margarita: strong with a good flavor Ultimate Queso: guac, pico, & beef should be in queso dip. Who knew? Average: Chimichanga beef was full of ground beef. But not good enough to take with us Cheese quesadilla Bads: Chip size is a joke. We had mostly broken chips that was through 3 refills Chips unsalted, that was just weird Slow service for refills, stingy with ice Polo con mole was rubbery chicken with a jar of premade mole over it Fajita beef was identical to the johns soules brand you buy at Walmart Could not provide empty crunchy tortillas because chicken and beef were already in them Flat sopapillas

We absolutely loved this restaurant! Where to begin?!? If you have seen my other critiques, you will see that we are certainly no stranger to Mexican food establishments. We love what we love! The food was a great value, and really good! Their combination plates, and even the “build your own” offer a great selection of delectable Mexican inspired eats! The Fajitas where absolutely wonderful, and they didn’t overdo it with the vegies trying to make it “appear” to be more than it is. The childrens selections are price and portion appropriate and were enjoyed by all offspring. As a little side note, the chips and salsa are fresh made every day. The salsa could use a little more bite (this is Texas after all), but was flavorful and enjoyed by all guests.The atmosphere is a little “diveish”, but it lends itself to a more laid back and inviting environment. The staff was wonderful, and a little devilish if I may add in how they present their desert options. I can’t wait to go back and indulge a little with their strawberry sopapillas. And now for my favorite part, the adult beverages. Though I only had the chance to try one of their literal menu of margaritas, I tried the house margarita. This is no mix! This is the fresh real deal made in the restaurant everyday margarita. And it was wonderful! Perfectly blended to let the vapor of the alcohol mingle with just the right level of tang. Beware, these could get you in trouble! Absolutely wonderful. Congrats! I’d give it 2 thumbs up! You’ve got some serious repeat customers!
