El Vagoncito Chilango — Restaurant in McAllen

Ok, the most important thing is… food, how good is the food? Well, the Suadero Tacos were the best by far. I ordered a six taco combo; 2 fajita (meh), 2 al pastor (meh -2) and 2 suadero (yay)!!

Size and portions 👌🏼 Taste +/-

Now… there was a stupid cat there all along, persistent and careless, you can tell he’s always there because he was already used to people and when we’d try to shhh it away he wouldn’t even budge or blink. This bothered me… a lot. Flies? Lots of flies!

Paid $56 for 2 orders of six tacos, one matamoros and the mixed one that I ordered for me, and some tostadas. One mex joya, a Dr. Pepper (can) and a Coke Zero (can).

If and when I return I will for sure be sitting inside the other building where we hope there’s less flies and no...

Arrived Like everyone else walking into a restaurant sat waited 10 min like everyone else till server came around took the order ,it gets busy undertandable ,that is until 6 other groups walked in orders taken and food served over almost an hr still no food asked and the lady , didnt have the order sent to the cooks order re taken 20 min still no update people still getting there food, I asked about my order and they seemed to have forgotten ... not once but Maybe like 6× came around this place and still havnt bottered there service really would like for the place to focus on Actual people ordering on tables than the drive thru , servers dont even have set control all over the place again...

Best word for this place.... overpriced!

Come on RGV...$13+ for a simple order of 6 corn tacos? Parking is extremely hard... you're sitting outside under a tin roof and they want to charge that price for an order of tacos?

They're not the most flavorful nor the most loaded tacos out there. The service was decent but they have so many cars waiting in line that the server only came over a few times.

We ended up ordering an alambre and shared it since it had enough meat for 2.

But for those $13 you can go to places like Bubba's or Chili's...get yourself a nice hamburger and a drink with great service and be inside as well.

You'll find me there...
