I went by myself for a late lunch. The staff was so friendly, and the fajitas I ordered were delicious. Would and will highly recommend El Tejaban Mexican Grill to anyone looking for a good Mexican in the area.

Hole in the wall restaurant. Came for brunch and we got shrimp and a burrito. There were a lot of tables seated so service was a bit slow. It was slow the last time I was there, so just be prepared to be patient. Food was tasty and worth the wait.

El Tejaban is becoming my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area.
I recommend their enchiladas with black beans and rice.
My wife keeps ordering their chicken fajitas, because they are great.
You have to order chips and salsa, but it is worth it. Very good chips, and four different kinds of salsa.
Their prices are very reasonable too. We showed up early this time, and the drinks were almost half off for happy hour. $6 Margarita and $3 tap...
