UPDATE - I did try their carne guisada, and it's great! In fact, it's my new favorite when we dine here. Still highly recommended! ORIGINAL REVIEW - We've dined at Cactus Bloom multiple times. Everything we've had has been great. So far I've tried their migas, omelette, Texas combo (I chose eggs, bacon, and a pancake), carnitas plate (came with lots of onions & bell pepper, which was great).

Read moreI love the name Cactus Bloom Cocina. It’s cute, unique, and fits the place perfectly. The restaurant has this old cafe style that feels really cozy and comfortable. The staff has always been very friendly and welcoming anytime I’ve come, and I felt taken care of from the moment I walked in. The food is where this place really shines. It’s some of the BEST Mexican food I’ve had in New Braunfels. The carne asada especially stood out, it was tender, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. You can tell they put a lot of heart into what they do here. It’s a great Mexican spot here and I...
