Seems to be the spot to go after a morning dove hunt. Great place for a coffee and some tacos after an early morning.
Of Elias is the kind of Mexican restaurant you would like to go anytime of the day, smells good, food is delicious, I have to make up my mind if I want breakfast or lunch. Parking lot always full, need bigger parking space. But the ambiance inside it's like you can't wait to order, go and you'll see what I'm talking about, so good!
It took a little bit for us to order since we were a big group with separate checks, but once we got our food, it was the best I’ve had in a while. The chicken fajita plate was well prepared and delicious. I tried my moms menudo and it reminded me of my Tio’s recipe who just passed away and made me very happy. I will be coming back next time we’re in Uvalde. The staff is very attentive and friendly but it was a little warm until the ac kicked on. Also the beans come with cheese if you’re picky like me, lol.
This place is so authentic and good, the customer service is stellar . We met Sergio and he was so cool. The place is big and roomy, it’s like going t to someone’s house and eating their food. The place also has car ports to park your car to keep it cooler. Total score if you get lucky. This place is so welcoming , thank yall for the awesome experience.
The place has lots of character, feels like an old country town inside and it’s cozy. The food is super yummy and the coffee is hot and delicious. The service at the table was kinda not that pleasant and couldn’t get a refill on my coffee, BUT I get that they are super busy and have a lot going on. The lady at the cashier’s counter was amazing. She made me feel appreciated.
We came in and ordered the enchiladas plates, short stack, cheese omelette and kids chicken tenders. Let me just say that everything was DELICIOUS!! Sergio our waiter, heck of guy!! Very attentive and courteous. The whole waiting staff were on task, loved that about this place. The atmosphere is pretty home like. Definitely a place to grab a bite if you’re here in Uvalde, TX. Definitely recommend and would come back👍🏼👍🏼
This place is amazing!!!! The chips and salsa is outstanding, nice light crispy chips. The salsa is freshly made. The chile con queso is great too. We had the enchiladas plate. Chicken enchiladas are so good. I highly recommend. Also had the chicken fried steak. Definitely competes with the best chicken fried steaks I've ever had. I highly recommend this place and will be coming back often! Corisa was an awesome server - polite attentive and super nice!
The food is really good. I'm not from the town of Uvalde, but my mom is, so anytime we visit we stop and eat here. Staff is friendly and pleasant. The menudo is very good, I highly recommend it. The tortillas are amazing, hot and fluffy, just like grandma used to make. Their tacos are very hearty and full, they don't go skimpy on the fillings. You won't regret making the pit stop to eat here.
Amazing food and service. A little pricey, but I’d say the food is well worth it.
Menudo has Great taste ... plates well served .. but no 5 star cause it’s to hot inside ...
The menudo was mediocre. No honeycomb tripe. Soft. Not much substance in the texture of the meat -ovetcioked or reheated, not sure. But plenty of meat. $15.00 for one bowl of large menudo two tortillas and a cup of water. The tortillas hardened up immediately once they were exposed to the air. Literally like a tostada shell-Outside of the serving tray. Menudo is served with onions and jalapenos. Asked for cilantro and they were able to provide. The taste of the red menudo was good. But not five star worth. Service was EXCEPTIONAL! No horchata served here.
Tacos are expensive at 5$ each and they are small. (Its not the price its the size n flavor) ..Ordered a lemonade a barbacoa, chicharrón and bacon and egg taco. The tacos didn't have flavor. The salsa tastes like they got it from a jar. The lemonade was like kool-aid. I only gave 2 stars because the bacon and egg was good. Won't be coming back.
5 tacos with regular flour tortillas 1 sweet tea $28 too expensive for a person
Came here on Father’s Day to eat on our way back home. The fact that this place is called Authentic is mind blowing. There is nothing authentic about this place. We had to “seat ourselves” & if you don’t go stand by the dirty table someone else will. How gross is that?? We got menudo and the short stack and let me just tell you the menudo was 0/10. It was reheated and tasted like eating pure oil. We asked for ham with the short stack and got burnt bacon. Let me fair warn you of what you’re getting….. 2 slices of lunch meat!!! 🤯🤯 We told the “manager” which in turn did nothing. This was not worth $40 we will never visit here again!
Do not recommend! Literally go anywhere but here. The inside is dirty! That should’ve been our sign to walk out. I could go in to detail about the service but bottom line it was awful. My husbands food came out first. He ordered a kimi plate and it looked disgusting. We are from the valley. We know good Mexican food. This was all mush. Soggy tortillas, you could taste the old oil it was cooked it. 10 min later my kids got their French toast and it was literally 2 slices of bread, nothing else, for $8. I’m still shocked at that one. Not sure why that one took so long to come out. Finally after everyone was done with their food and my kids were definitely ready to leave, my food came out. I got the puffy tacos and I had the same old greasy taste as my husband. We got those 3 things and 4 drinks. Tell me how all that was $60. Save yourself and skip this place.
Really wanted to try this place. Unfortunately, our experience was not too great. Came to eat here w/ my father and my 5yr old son. Overpriced Greasy menudo. I wouldn’t mind the price at all if the quality was worth it. Overpriced coffee. Horrible customer service. Our waiter would just ignore us and when she did finally wait on us she was rude and unkind.
If I could leave 0 stars. This is definitely at the top of my list for the worst food I've ever had. I couldn't even eat the food and still had to pay. The owner had the waitress charge me half price for a plate I couldn't eat. Wow by the way it was the special 13.99 for what looked like a childs plate. This place is in Uvalde Texas.
