Wonderful Tex-Mex food with a wide variety of items on the menu. One of the best Carne Asada in McKinney. I'd also recommend the Chipotle Asada, which was delicious.

A quaint mom & pop restaurant with a decent selection and fair pricing. We ordered two entrées, an appetizer, and dessert, all for $40 and some change--and my portion was enough for two meals.
I personally found the rice to be a bit bland, but adding some salsa helped a lot. We did get complementary chips & salsa (and queso, though maybe that was included with the nachos we ordered) with our takeout order, which was nice; and the flan seemed to be homemade, which is always a plus--but you have to eat it quite promptly or it'll dry out. I read they have extra-spicy salsa available upon request and am excited to try it! Service was quick.
Overall, a nice place to have right down the street for when we're hankering for some tacos or rellenos!

Overall I'll rate it 3.5 out of five. Unfortunately we can't do it with a point system. The room today was pretty warm and the fans were off despite outside being 95 degrees.
The place was dead but our food was about a 9-12 minute wait.
The fajita nachos were odd. The cheese was as if they slapped cheese squares and melted them. When I think of nachos, I prefer liquid cheese. The queso was a little odd too, a little lumpy. Also, when my boyfriend got his plate, the server didn't IMMEDIATELY let him know the plate was scorching hot, so he grabbed for it and burned himself.
I've eaten here other times too. The beans are okay the rice is okay. But that's it. I don't think the price for the nachos are worth it. It's dry and kinda bland . The fajita meat was also dry.
There's plenty of other places around here to eat.

I guess this place is an institution in East McKinney. This place is an older establishment that is very dark inside. Large families were being served. I got the three amigos which is three different enchiladas. It was okay, but too greasy for my taste. The rice was a dirty rice and no alternatives. House margaritas where good tasting but not much to them. Service was okay. Waitress was busy with the large families.

I have been dining at the McKinney location for 20ish years. Constantly providing me with delicious food at a price you can’t beat. The servers are always friendly and greet me with a warm smile. Alexandria (?spelling) and Nelson are my favorite servers and treat me and my crew like family. Thank you for continuing to be awesome and affordable! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ask for all you can eat Enchiladas..!!

For anyone who remembers Bill Smith’s- then you know Jalapeños. I think they’ve been here ever since the little strip shop was built. It’s a little dated but the food is spot on. You can’t beat the price. Come on in, great place to sneak a margarita on your lunch break. (Don’t tell the boss.)
