Taco De Oro Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Texas

OK, so me and my BFF decided to try this place out for the first time. Very friendly service. However, portion size and taste of food not very palatable bland. And the shock at the end was that I ordered a guacamole small dish with chips turned out to be $8.99. It wasn’t even half an avocado, mostly lettuce, tomatoes and onion with 1 quart of avocado as it seemed not good Business, you can buy a whole avocado at the store for $1.25. And the atmosphere it’s OK but the restaurant was totally empty. When around this hour. It should be packing in for brunch. After our experience with the food, I understand why it was empty. I thought maybe we just beat the crowd, but unfortunately, not so. I normally don’t like to leave bad reviews. No one is perfect. However, if you want to be successful any business, you need to step up the plate and make it. Attractive to the eyes and attractive to the pallet. And the price for the food, not acceptable for the portion size and the flour and corn tortillas you better have some teeth cause they’re very chewy and dry. No offense to the owners, but I must express my experience. This is good criticism so you can improve your services and...

This place is AMAZING!! I'm upset I didn't know about it sooner. Everything is made FRESH when you order it! Everything is HOMEMADE! So, their food is delicious. Especially their homemade tortillas! I had to hold in my emotions while eating because it was just that good!

I also had some horchata and that is homemade as well. Man! It was so smooth and full of flavor. I had to force myself to take my time to eat and drink because I didn't want it to be over. And their homemade fresh salsa!! I got the mild salsa and it complemented by breakfast tacos perfectly!

Last but not least, the staff was so friendly and welcoming. I felt like I was at a family member's house. We talked like we've known each other for a long time and we just met today. It was such a great experience all around.

IF you are in a hurry and want their food, CALL AHEAD. Their food is made FRESH when you order it!! It is worth every penny! If you ain't got time to chill for a moment, look at their online menu and just call it in. You won't be disappointed coming here!

I didn't get a photo cause it was too good that I forgot...

Okay so I originally had it at 5 stars but I have a growing list of issues. They close at 9. On the paper on the door and on Google. It say NINE PM. They stop answering phones AND LOCKED THE DOOR before 8:30pm. I have patience but when the guy looked at me and ignored me half an hour before they were closed. I pointed at the door because it says 9 and my partner is inside. That isn't okay. He continued to ignore me. I don't know what was going on but there were so many people waiting for their food. 30 minutes we waited for some tacos. Not hard. Between the wait, the rude staff choosing not to acknowledge they close at 9, and the guy who looked at me like I was trash drifting by the door and not a patron, tonight was infuriating. CLOSE AT 8:30 IF YOU CANT SEEM TO HANDLE THE 30 EXTRA MINUTES OF BEING OPEN*.

Great food can only be appreciated if service isn't garbage. If this continues, I may stop going altogether because being treated like that isn't worth it. ⭐⭐❌❌❌
