Taqueria El Jimador — Restaurant in Texas

I dont even know where to begin with this review. The restaraunt deserves Zero stars. The food is not good. For an authentic mexican restaurant, the food is bland and basic! I went there to pick up for lunch, when i got my order, my queso and chips were very cold and on top of that when i told the waitress that was there that the food was cold. She put queso in the microwave as if I wasn't going to notice the difference between fresh and microwave heat. When i told the same waitress about my chips being cold she replied that chips are made Fresh "Daily". She didnt want to get more fresh chips. When i told her that "the chips were cold and I will wait until you bring some fresh ones back" she got an attitude and brought back some microwaved chips. SMH.

These are the main reasons why this eating establishment will goes out of business. 1. The food is really bad and 2. The customer service is unacceptable!

If the was a Zero star I would give them Zero stars' because of my horrible experience. I will not be back.

I spent $17.89 at that restauraunt and I regret...

A hidden- gem, "whole in the wall" hidden gem. My husband found this place one day after church and we were craving tacos. It's in a strip mall with a gnarly/mangled parking lot (watch your rims) and a random smattering of shops you may NEVER have a need to go into but dont let that deter you. Once inside you sit yourself and the waiststaff is prompt and attentive and let's talk about why we're here....the food is PRETTY stellar and im not exaggerating. On our first trip I got a gordita and a few tacos, hubby got a torta milanesa and some tacos. All was good but honestly the standout was the beef fajita taco. Trip 2 and we stuck with tacos only but we got margaritas this time. (Insert slow handclap) The beef fajita is small, almost minced, pieces of delicious and flavorful beef and their house-made flour tortillas....woooooo boy!!! And lemme just say the carne guisada IS. INCREDIBLE. So juicy and succulent with a "gravy" that is savory and smoky/spicy. Last thing, if you eat in, try the margaritas so refreshing and light but with just enough of a kick...

I came here last night with my husband thinking the meal was gonna be delicious. I was very disappointed. I've been here before years ago. And last night my husband and I were trying to find a different place to eat he's never been here so I suggested this place. I knew the food was gonna be good or so I thought. We get there, not too many people are there maybe two other customers. We seat ourselves, first thing was disappointing was my drink. I ordered lemonade . Tasted extremely watered down, with 5 ice cubes. We tried the salsas no FLAVOR whatsoever MAYBE a tiny bit of heat from them. Than my husband wanted queso. So he ordered that thinking that'll be better. We tried it at the same time. The queso had no taste, it tasted WATERED DOWN. We dumped the salsa in it salt and pepper. Still no flavor. Got our food SAME THING. And the food was cold at that. We spent $40 on this food and was extremely disappointed. I don't know what happened over the years. But I remember it not being like this when I...
