Coronas Mexican Restaurant #2 — Restaurant in Bryan

We went last Sunday at about 10:15. The place is tiny and jam packed. Took 10 minutes to get our drinks and told them we wanted lunch. They gave us the lunch menus. We asked for chips and salsa and it took 20 minutes before we received those after reminding the staff multiple times trying to keep in mind that they were a little busy. We finally got to order at about 1030. No one said oh were only doing breakfast so it will be a wait...we waited and almost walked out after having to flag staff down for multiple refills and more salsa since our food was taking so long. We tried to be patient since our next stop had not opened quite yet. We asked the staff how much longer on our food since people that came in after us also ordering lunch received theirs before us.They stated a few more minutes since it takes awhile for the tilapia to cook. Our food finally came out a little after 11. The food is good but the service is horrendous.We will definitely only do takeout from here...

I should've asked the waitress her name but she was truly understanding, patient and cheerful the whole time. My friend and I reached a little earlier while the rest of the group was about 10 minutes behind. We were promptly seated with no hassle at a table for 7. Chips, salsa and the Verde sauce was fresh and tasted better than any Mexican food place I've been to. The waitress refilled our chips (we were hungry) while we waited for the rest of the gang to show up. The waitress answered all our questions and even made some recommendations. I got the El Guapo (Cheese enchilada, beef and chicken fajita with a hard shell beef taco and all the toppings). When they say it's a jumbo plate, trust them. The prices were moderately priced but portions were large! I would love to come back again some time and try other things on the menu! My friends tried the tilapia, cheese enchilada plate (she only gets that wherever she goes) and all of them came out looking good and tasting...

Actually 4.9: a strong 5 stars for flavorful food, quality, portion size, and presentation; an 0.1 star demerit for small service blip.

Outstanding grilled tilapia with vegetables, possibly the best I've ever tasted. Tilapia was perfectly prepared, brushed with butter, wonderfully slightly crispy at the edges with ideal doneness at the center. The vegetables atop the filet arrived perfectly steamed, still crisp. Great variety of veggies, all fresh: zucchini, carrots, yellow squash (all cut julienne style); broccoli, as well a onions and peppers. The kitchen knows its way around a grill and a steam basket: steaming vegetables and grilling a filet just to peak doneness is an exacting task. Rice was well seasoned and plentiful. Refried beans were good. Corona's has a limited selection of the Jarrito's soda, one of which was my favorite, mandarina. The other...
