“la comida, sabor, calidad y atención al cliente 10/10. Les recomiendo las enchiladas callejeras, nos atendió Reyna y nos dió una excelente atención”
“Food was good. Walked in & felt very welcomed. Place is clean and tidy. Food was good and fresh. 10/10 recommend 👌”
“We had Dodici Mobile cater our wedding dinner, and they were amazing. Dante was so easy to work with. He was super helpful, full of great ideas, and willing to meet with us to make sure everything was just right. Best of all, it wasn’t your typical wedding food. Having their pizza was such a fun and refreshing change. It made the dinner feel more personal. On the day of the wedding, they served 200 guests quickly and smoothly. The food was incredible, which was expected. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it. Dodici never misses (the restaurant and catering). If you’re planning an event, I can’t recommend them enough!”
“It is refreshing to come to Brownsville and have a concept like Malachela available with a solid beer selection and tasty bites from an exciting menu. I look forward to returning and trying more food! The molleja tacos are a must have order and they are approachable for the demographic.”
“Una Noche de Magia Gastronómica en Chilmoli Restaurant No todas las cenas comienzan con un giro inesperado: una cita cancelada por emergencia puede dejar a cualquiera en incertidumbre. Pero en mi caso, se convirtió en una experiencia única y transformadora en Chilmoli Restaurant, donde la soledad encontró sabor, arte y calidez. Desde el momento en que probé su nueva creación —empanadas de chicharrón en salsa verde, acompañadas de chimichurri y una salsa verde perfectamente picante— supe que esta noche iba a ser memorable. El equilibrio entre tradición y audacia es un sello evidente del Chef Rafael, quien eleva cada platillo a una obra de arte, demostrando una pasión culinaria que se saborea con cada bocado. La mezcalita de jamaica refrescó con un toque floral y misterioso, mientras que la ensalada de betabel, que en otros tiempos hubiera evitado, sorprendió por su elegancia y el juego armónico de ingredientes. Jamás pensé que el betabel pudiera seducirme así —solo en Chilmoli. El equipo de Chilmoli no se queda atrás. Ale Zamarron y la Gerente Tere me brindaron una atención tan cálida como personalizada. Tere, en particular, cerró mi noche con un gesto y sonrisa que no se encuentran en manuales de servicio, sino en corazones genuinos. El gran final: Tuétano con tacos de ribeye. El ribeye, cocido a la perfección, jugoso y tiernamente sazonado, coronó una velada digna de ser contada. El tuétano aportó profundidad y lujo al plato, como un poema escrito en grasa dorada. Chilmoli no es solo un restaurante. Es una afirmación de que todos merecemos momentos que nos recuerden lo especiales que somos. Después de un día agotador, uno sale con la certeza de que no solo alimentó el cuerpo —también el alma. Gracias, Gerente Tere y Ale y todo el equipo, por convertir lo ordinario en extraordinario. Que este espacio siga brillando y prosperando.”

“we went for Valentine's Day and we feel in love with the place”
“OMG! Ever since we saw the sign on the building before they opened, my son has kept an eye on it because he was excited to try it. Today, rain or shine, I took him and he freaking LOVED IT! I definately recommend this place 💯!”

“So I visited the one in Olmito, but I can't seem to find it on Google just yet. Anyways, an employee was super kind and showed us all the yogurt options and even let us sample a few. I took my diabetic mom because of the sugar free options, she was excited and loved her yogurt flavor. My daughter loved the popping boba toppings!!! I loved that I could make a Dubai chocolate frozen yogurt and it was lactose free!!! I'm definitely going back!! I was gonna take pictures but we were too excited to eat our treats.”
“Gluten-free and sugar-free might sound like it doesn't taste good, but this place makes everything taste delicious!!! Well worth it.”
“Can't ask for better experience if you're looking for cocktails. I've been there a handful of times, and I've never left disappointed. I don't think it's a main staple on their menu but at one point they had a cocktail that tasted exactly like a yellow bell pepper. The way they were able to nail down the taste perfectly was incredible.”
“My mom and I came here for the first time today. And we absolutely loved everything. I had the best steak I've ever had in my life. I ordered it medium, and it was a little overdone, but still pretty freaking great.
Those parmesan fries though were just terrible.”

“I had an amazing experience at Liam’s! I ordered the lobster tail and ribeye, and both were cooked to perfection. The ribeye was juicy and full of flavor, and the lobster tail was tender, buttery, and absolutely delicious. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. Our waiter, Giancarlo, provided outstanding service from start to finish. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. He truly made the experience even better. The manager, Carlos, also stopped by our table to check on us, which was such a nice touch. You can tell they really care about their guests and take pride in their service. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend Liam’s to anyone looking for a great dining experience!”

“This day I went minutes before three in the afternoon and no one helped me. I was waiting for 10 minutes. Bad service from the staff on duty in the afternoon. The girls who are there in the morning are very attentive and friendly. They do their job well and the food is delicious.”

“We had a nice meal and drinks to celebrate my husband's birthday.
The staff was great!
A nicely decorated piece of delicious chocolate cake was brought out to him at no cost since we forgot the cake! 🎂
They also sang to him. It was a great visit!”
“I went with my friend yesterday during a Spurs game, and it was a packed house and everyone seemed to be having a great time. Once the game ended, people started leaving and we found somewhere to sit. However, it was several minutes before anyone served our table. The music and food were pretty great otherwise though, and there were several pool tables available for use.”

“We absolutely love 956 Coffee! Their coffee is always excellent, and they create unique drinks that you can’t find anywhere else in Brownsville. It’s become part of our daily routine to stop by, and we especially enjoy trying their seasonal creations. Some of our favorites are the Rice & Beans (horchata with espresso – so good!), the Hazelnut Praline Latte, and the Apple Spice Latte. Every drink feels thoughtfully crafted and delicious. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff always make the experience even better. 956 Coffee is hands-down our go-to spot, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for amazing coffee and creative flavors!”
“If you’re craving real flavor, these tacos de deshebrada definitely hit the spot. The tortillas are warm and fresh, the meat was perfectly seasoned, and the toppings were just right — not too heavy, not too little. You can really taste that everything’s made with care. The salsa added the perfect kick without overpowering the flavor and jalapen̈os add the kick. Whether you grab a quick bite or sit down for a meal, these tacos never disappoint.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for that authentic, juicy, mouthwatering taco experience! 🌮🔥”
“We LOVE coming here. Best Seafood Restaurant in Brownsville, hands down. Honestly, probably in South Texas. We love seafood and have tried many different places. But, none like these.The food is freshly made and delicious!The waitress is a younger girl and she’s absolutely fantastic, Karla. She is amazing! We got the Mariscada for 2 and a Fish Taco and Soup . Amazing!”
“On doordash i would like for you guys to allow the customers to remove unwanted items on their burgers/sandwiches
i find it disappointing that when i wanted to order a bacon cheeseburger i wasn’t allowed to remove anything even though in person and in other doordash restaurants they let you remove items”
“My girlfriend @isachikispam is literally Raising Cane’s biggest fan She could eat it every single day and still get excited every time. The chicken is always crispy, the Cane’s sauce is undefeated, and somehow the toast tastes better when she’s the one stealing bites off my tray. If there’s one thing guaranteed with her, it’s that she’ll never say no to Cane’s. 10/10 reviewer certified.”
“Muy tranquilo puedes conversar sin tanto ruido muy buen servicio y los cócteles muy recomendables .”
“The service is always great as well as the atmosphere. Even as new restaurants open up around Brownsville, Toscafino still stands out as consistently great and always a good choice to dine. The last time I dined there we got Esmeralda as a waitress and she did an excellent job.”

“Their service is amazing. Their bartender team is composed of world-wide known people competing internationally representing USA and other countries. Their attention to their cocktails is uncanny and you will return for more. Music varies depending on the day of the week and is a must visit stop.”

“Well stopped by to eat here because we were dropping off dry cleaning near by. My wife and I had never heard of this place. We’re glad we got down to try it. This establishment didn’t disappoint. The staff were friendly and attentive. The breakfast was delicious and hot. And the coffee was strong and hot! It was busy, but the food didn’t take long to get to us. We’ll definitely be back to bring our kids to eat here!”

“I'm a big fan of Donkey's Butt. They use high quality beans and do an excellent job roasting. I found them several years ago at the South Padre Island Farmer's Market and I've been buying beans from them ever since. My fav is their Espresso beans!”
“Finally got to try these burgers and they did not disappoint. Very good flavor and the fries had the perfect amount of seasoning. The elote was good too just bit too much mayo for my liking. I will definitely be back.”

“Loved the food. We went on a Friday night and it was empty. More people should try it and they might fall in love with the flavors as I did. Great experience overall.”
“Excellent food, and even better wait staff. Made my wife's birthday even better with the service that most places don't have. And the food was amazing, especially the wagyu roast.
Thank you.”

“If you want a true Mexican restaurant ambiance, then this is the place for you. The decor, the happy attitude of the servers, the food, everything contributes to a fantastic dining experience. If you are wondering where to have your next dinner party, then look no further than Mi Pueblito...to be honest, the food and drinks are a little pricey, but the authentic Mexican food and decor make up for the prices. You will truly enjoy your next experience at this restaurant. The servers Hector and Roger make the restaurant as good as it can get. They are both very happy, energetic and helpful servers that will take great care of you. Again, this will be a truly authentic Mexican restaurant experience you will not regret or soon forget.”

“Great mom & pop restaurants are disappearing in Brownsville & being replaced by national chains. This is one of the few & best remaining establishments. Food is excellent, service is great. Highly recommend it. I especially like the American enchiladas. They are superb.”

“When I tell you this Old Fashioned was the best I’ve ever had, I mean it! The atmosphere was smooth and relaxing, the music was perfect, and the bartender absolutely nailed every drink. Everything about the experience was awesome. I’ll definitely be back! Downtown’s hidden lil treasure …”
“The Good People really does live up to its name.
I love supporting local, but it means even more when the people there actually remember you. You’re not just another drink in the queue. They greet you. remember you, they know your order, and they make a coffee stop feel like a small part of your day that actually matters.
Liz is my favorite barista and truly the star for me. She already knows my favorite drink, The Good Latte and somehow that always makes the visit feel a little more personal. When the weather is nice, I’ll walk the trail over there and reward myself after my mental health walk with my favorite drink. It’s become one of those little routines that helps me reset and feel like I did something good for myself lol.
Karen is also always warm, welcoming, and helpful, and that energy shows in the space. The Good People feels like somewhere you can disconnect for a moment, breathe, and get the perfect pick me up for later.
Great coffee, good energy, and genuinely good people. That’s why I keep coming back.”
“First time at Vida Cafe and it was absolutely lovely! I seriously can't recommend their banana latte enough, or anything with banana and coconut for that matter (in my humble opinion, they were amazing). If you're looking for a chill spot to hang out solo or with friends, this is definitely the place to be. 🍌🥥☕ #Cafe #Recommendation #Banana #Coconut #Friends. oh and their matcha is delicious.”
“There's a ton of flavors and its my favorite coffee place due to all the sugar free options. If you don't like flavored drinks this might not be for you since the espresso and matcha aren't the strongest but i honestly think there's something here for everyone”
“Delicious as always!! Endless shrimp and lobster was very buttery!”
