Chico's Comida Casera — Restaurant in Laredo

Today 3/31/21 was our (mother, my little niece &me) first time eating at this place, mother ordered enchiladas callejeras, niece got kids sliders, i ordered cheese enchiladas, mother approved her enchiladas callejeras, said they were really good, myself i loved the cheese enchiladas they were super good, so far I'm changing my usual restaurant for enchiladas, chicos will now be it🤤, my niece didn't finish her sliders so I helped her 😁 WoW it was really good, meat was well seasoned. BUT what i didn't like was that we waited about 20 or 25 minutes(maybe less but it seemed really long to me) to be offered something to drink and get menus, there was only 1 waiter for all tables so i understand the long wait besides we didn't have anything to do so we stayed, he was very respectful and attentive once he got to us, he recommended items from the menu. I rate on food quality, flavor, cleanliness and how im treated thats why i gave it 5 stars, maybe now that everything is opening up after covid-19 they'll hire some waitresses and wait time will be less but food is really good,...

First time here and the owner tells me that he is related to the owner of Lala's in Mirando City. That has been there for over 50 years and was featured on The Texas Bucket list. I have had a craving for chalupas and was surprised to find them in the menu. The tortilla is shaped not like the traditional round, it is oblong and guess what, when you bite into it, you don't get it on the sides of your mouth. The refried beans and rice was excellent. The chalupas very good. My partner ordered the emoladas which I have no idea why they are called that they are enchiladas de mole with chicken. The mole is different not like the one I like Dona Maria, but it's tasty and different, 100%.

Stop by and enjoy breakfast, lunch, they do close at 3:00 pm and open at 7:00am. They have a wide variety of choices. This is a favorite now and will definitely return.

I also had to order a carne guidasa on flour. It was very good. The staff and owner are friendly and make you feel at home....

Breakfast ended at 11am but we ask if Breakfast was still available, the waitress said yes. 2 of our 4 orders came almost 30 minutes after placing it and the other 2 came 1 hour later. We didn't leave because it was unfair for my wife and daughter not to have their order of Pancakes. The manager said it was because we order during lunch. I asked then why offer the Breakfast menu when it wasn't really available? Bad excuse and attitude by manager. Never going again. 1 hour is too much, there weren't many customers ahead of us. Plus, pancakes is like 5 minute...
