This restaurant was listed as one of 50 best Tacos in Texas in Texas Monthly. My boy and I made a long trek there because of the article.
The restaurant, while clean and spacious, definitely meets the definition of a hole in the wall. The strip mall where the restaurant is located is in disrepair and heavily in need of updating. The parking area is spacious but is in disrepair and the entrance to the restaurant is nondescript and could be also described as disappointing.
Our server was tired but efficient. They recommended their consomme and 4 tacos de rez which we each ordered, and honestly, the meal did not stand out and was no better than I could have gotten at any other taco restaurant nearby.
The consomme was pungent and easily identifiable as goat meat which I did not care for. The tacos were plain barbacoa (shredded beef) but not out of the ordinary taste. I don't know what the author of the article in the Texas Monthly was raving about.
The meal which included a soft drink and bottled water set us back about $40 dollars, which in my opinion was $20 dollars too much. Regardless, the meal was OK, but not a standout.
This is a place to have lunch but I do not recommend traveling for a foodie experience.

This a very casual place to eat authentic Mexican lamb tacos, also the lamb consomme is somehow good, but they need to improve the quality and presentation of their products.

The lamb consome is very tasty, as well as the independent pork tacos. The girls who serve are very friendly.

I like barbecue tacos and the beans taste very good!
It's stripped down to basics as far as atmosphere, but just makes it more Authentic!Tacos were pretty simple and straightforward but really good flavours.I had the beef and the meat was cooked to perfection.I even got a couple roasted jalapenos.The real star was their green sauce.Out of over 400 other Mexican restaurants I have eaten at only 2 other restaurants would have a give this sauce a run for the money!Anyway chances are I will be back here again at some point.
Parking: They allow semi trucks to park in their parking lot.

I love the flavor of their lamb tacos. And their consomme... I visit it when there is a craving...
The lamb broth is very good, especially for when it is raw

Since this business was on the corner of Thomas and Jackson road, it has always served the best, especially those hangovers 🤣 100% recommended, the best consommé in the Pharr, McAllen and Hidalgo area

Personally, I really like the consommé and the beef barbecue. Their attention to service is excellent in their waitresses and staff. The place where I go is small but it is quite comfortable to attend with the whole family.
