Janie's Cafe — Restaurant in Weslaco

If it's your first time? Here's my review.

Janie's Cafe Food is delicious, fresh & hot. I rated a 3 🌟 🌟 🌟 for these reasons. Place is old needs to be updated has dirty stained floors, ceiling panels stained, lights work some don't gives you dim lighting. Old Tables need to be replaced, tables got cardboard paper to level legs at the bottom. The atmosphere is medium you'll also get vendors coming in & out selling items as well as mariachi's singing for tips. I went around 9am for breakfast paid $12 with some change for a breakfast plate including drink also food takes at least 30mins for arrival so be prepared. Waiters don't check up much on there guests so be ready to call out. It really is a Cafe mainly get a lot of elderly people which is fine with me I'm here to enjoy a good meal. Now what disgusted me the most was the restroom. I've never been in a old school bar restroom but I can imagine it be like Janie's Cafes restroom. When I went to wash my hands before eating I than lost my appetite so I couldn't eat right after "thinking" but oh well. The sink wobbles, no toilet paper just rolls stacked on top of each other. The tolite has no cover, worn out & looked out of a Action Movie. Mold.. lots of mold under the urinal drain pipe. Trash cans seen better days. A/C filter blacker than the black crayola crayon. Mirror reminded me of a horror film. So please if you decide to go it's great food but they need a huge update. I'd figure with all that traffic they'd invest a bit. Please review actual photos I took when I was...

Arriving at 12:15 on a Wednesday, we had excellent service and delicious, huge meals. Hubby had Janie's #2 (combo fajita plate with fries and Texas toast). The fries needed to be cooked longer, they were limp. Everything else was exceptional. Many shrimp in the meat combo. Huge green salad. I had #58 Mexico City, which included cheese enchilada, fajita beef taco (huge!), a yummy tostada and beans and rice. The beef was so good. The cheese enchilada was excellent. I pulled off all the tortillas as I'm watching my carbs. Such good homemade fresh squeezed lemonade, not too sweet. And their homemade salsa is HOT but so tasty. We are definitely coming back here and bringing our friends! Very reasonable prices. Can't wait to try their breakfast. UPDATE: 11/3/23 Had brunch here with 3 friends. Delicious coffee. Great food (try the pancakes and French toast!). Excellent, friendly service. A+++ rating Best...

First time visit. The food was good, service was excellent and the prices were fair. The only negative was the wobbly tables. They sell table levelers at the hardware store for cheap. We will come back. 11/26/22 UPDATE They still haven't fixed the wobbly tables. 🙄 The breakfast tacos were overstuffed and very good. I should have ordered just one but I managed to get through 2 of them. Salsa was yummy. All locals with a good vibe. 12/16/22 UPDATE: A BIG negative: the noise level can be a bit much especially when the place is full, the ranchera music (please turn it down or off!) is blaring and 2 TVs going. I'm partially deaf so it has to be really annoying for me to say something. The loud music and TV noise does nothing to enhance the dining experience for sure and sometimes make me think twice about coming...
