Nice hole in the wall kinda place. Awesome staff and service - hands down! Seems to be popular with a crowd, but a small dining area so come early. Clean, but very outdated. This place needs a makeover. The margarita was great, the chips were fresh, and the queso was okay, but everything was terribly over-salted. The cook is heavy-handed with the salt, so if that's your thing you'll like it. It's not hard to find, but it's not easy to get to either.

Abilene's first Mexican Restaurant that is still owned and operated by the Herrera family since 1936. Great food and excellent service. The Tuesday special is an AYCE that gives you a great variety. They do serve alcoholic drinks as well. The chips and hot sauce were wonderful as well. Bear in mind that this is not "Tex-Mex", but rather true Mexican family cooking.

Good food and great service with fair prices and huge portions. We got nachos to share and still had some left over! Only complaint is there are some weapons hung on the wall with nails and are most certainly a safety risk. It's great to have history displayed and cool things to informed guests with but there is no excuse for hazardous situations.
