Olivia's Restaurant — Restaurant in Hondo

Local person here, first visit, very disappointed. Only half of the tables were full when I orderd. Took 45 minutes to receive my order, just one plate. Waiter was not friendly or attentive. He would help people that just walked in, while ignoring those who had already been seated and waiting several minutes. This shows they favor certain people, or that they simply don't pay attention. Either way, not good.

Restaurant was very hot and stuffy inside, not adequate air conditioning. Food was not good at all, small portions, full prices. Cheese enchiladas were tiny and bland. Rice and beans tasted old. They falsely listed carne guisada on menu. It's not stewed meat at all. The guisada was simply a thin steak, cut into squares, cooked and coated in watery gravy. Was chewy and tough like a bad steak. Not tender and stewed like actual guisada. First time to ever have chewy "guisada".

Overall this place cuts corners, is overwhelmed, and doesn't seem to care or put forth effort. Glad I avoided for several years, will...

I like this small restaurant. The food is good, fast service. Be aware, next day I was checking my purchase and there was $2.11 extra charge on my debit card that was not on the receipt. I called the restaurant and was told they did not add the $2.11 to the bill. I called the bank and was told Olivias did add the $2.11 to the bill. I understand the need to offset credit card charges but TELL the customer. Update... I ate here again and the bill was given to me by the waiter. Nothing was itemized, it was just a piece of paper with a total amount hand written. It seemed higher that it should be. I ask the cashier to add up my food items again and the total was $5 less. You draw your...

Food was good not great. One star. Staff was very polite and additive. Two stars Now when you give a grown man a small plate. For 10.66. He's going to have something to say. Like" ma'am I'm still hungry." Please reduce your price to comply with the portion of you food.

10/21/2020. Sorry mate. My person came into your establishment by itself. I was alone sir. It was lunch time, was looking for a big meal. You serve food that is know for its portion size. Sorry, I expected more of your restaurant. I also don't know the full named person you committed me of knowing. Just don't want any...
