El Restaurante Gaonas LLC — Restaurant in Eagle Pass

First time going here for breakfast/brunch on a Sunday.

It was quite busy, however sevice was great and the food was really tasty.

The building and and parking lot could use some sprucing up. Inside the floor appears to have seen better days. The decor is walls of differing colors and mini piñatas throughout the ceiling as well as Mexican streamers.

The dish I had was called Huevos Divorciados which is two fried corn tortillas, each topped with and egg and one has red salsa and the other red salsa. It came with a side of potatoes and redried beans. The potatoes had little to no seasoning and the beans tasty but also not overly seasoned. Typically this would be a bummer, however the salsa were spicy, specially the green one and so the blandness of the potatoes and beans helps with that. The red salsa had "cueritos" which is pork rinds/skin. I mention this because that wasn't listed. You also get extra tortillas of your choice, corn or flour. The tortillas both corn and flour were delicious. Do they sell them in packs to go?

The coffee was seved in a foam cup. Since I've not been here before, unsure if that's new due to the pandemic or if they've always done that.

It's also quite inexpensive.

Overall this is. A good place to have a tasty and...

I liked eating at this place but they are slacking lately. I used to love eating the pork chop breakfast. But the last couple of times the pork chop has been burnt to the point where you can obviously see it is burnt. My wife ordered pancakes and they were dry and tasteless, a far cry from once fluffy pieces of clouds they were before. Since the first time my food was burnt, I have complained but was met with resistance and dismay. You would have thought I was getting the food for free. The last time I ordered to go and thought the food would be better since I was told it would be 40 minutes until my food was ready. I got home opened my plate, my pork chop was burnt once again. I called was was answered in a very condescending tone. I was told I could pick up another or get and IOU. I was not asking for either. I explained that this was not the first time this has happened. I told her, that as a small business owner, she should be careful and want to maintain the clients she does have. And maybe tell her employees to be more careful while preparing clients meals. Maybe she needs to hire more employees if she does have too many customers. I hope...

Service is awful, having to wait for drink refills. The table is slightly dirty still from whomever sat there last. Prices are way to EXPENSIVE for what you get..... BUT, the barbacoa meat is the BEST food they have. The wait-staff are unfriendly, don't "take care of their tables or customers" to well. I say this because we had to repeatedly ask for the same things before the task waa completed. Example: ma'am can I have more coffee? And then 2 to 3 times again before the waitress actually came to refill my coffee and walked away without asking if the table needed anything else...????... as in didn't even offer to fill my husbands coffee.... SHAMEFUL!!! Although when I'm in Eagle Pass, TX. I ask if we can stop to eat there at least once per visit.... all because of that darn barbacoa... it's just so flavorful and all meat... not to to greasy. Tortillas are awful, beans are like water and thinned out. Potatoes are barely ok. But... its just that...
